Broemer, of this city. said yesterday:
s'This action is not an exceptional one by
any means. Our church. as body, is OPP

legations of the Church of Christ
are not assumed with an oath of
obedience. The majority decision is
obligatory upon members and may oblige
to wrong act, and the aim and spirit of
the society is discomfort with present
earnings and circumstances. which our
church holds to be contrary to that
scriptural injunction to be content with
such things as We have.n

Riding "a Eicycie on the Coping of
Cabin sohnE Bridge.

A Washington special says Will
Robinson, a local bicyclist, to-day, in
the presence Of number of witnesses
performed the extraordinary and peril
GUS feat of riding the length of the side
coping Of Cabin Johns bridge on his
wheel. About a week ago paragraph
was printed in Philadelphia paper
stating that the feat had been accom-
phshed. but 10 names were given.
Robinson, who has executed many
wonderful feats on the bicycle, such as
riding down the stairway at the east front
of the Capitol, requested some friends
10 accompany him to Cabin Johns
bridge to-dsy. The coping is only
about fifteen inches wide, and is nearly
three hundred feet long. The bridge
is the longest span in the world. Upon
reaching the bridge Robinson informed
his companions that he proposed to
ride his bicycle over the coping. They
urged him not to attempt 1t, as the
bridge is several hundred feet high and
the coping is delyed on the side, thus
reducing the top level to about one
foot in width. Robinson, how
ever, said he was determined
TO make the effort. His pa-
chine was lifted upon the coping,
and, assisted by his companions, he
mounted il and started on his hazardous
journey. He displayed great nerve, and
sent bis machine along swiftly but eau
tiously. When three fourths Of the
distance had been travelled he tilted his
machine forward and rode the remain
Ger Of the way on the large wheel alone
The task looked almost impossible, but
when he reached the other side safely
and dismounted be was enthusiastically
cheered by the large number of per
sens present. He will repeat his ed
venture at az early day in the presenc
