A DANGEROUS PRACTICE.


 Complaint has been made of the perfor. msnces of bicycle riders on the East Rock Park roads. It is asserted that they are in the habit of sscoasting" down the steepes, parts of the roads and gliding suddenly and silently by other vehicles in way to frighten the horses attached to them and to terrify the occupants of them. The other day a horse was badly scared by one of these ap. paratuses and only skillful work by the driver prevented serious accident. If the practice is not discontinued it is altogether probable that some day serious trouble will result from it.
 Of course bicycle has as good right on any road as any vehicle has, and the f act that it is rather "scarey" object does no t deprive it of that right. It is probable hat nothing can be done in a legal way to pre- vent "coasting" down the Park roads. But most people who ride bicycles are not blood- thirsty and can have no possible interest in staying any of their fellow men or women. Therefore if their attention is called to the fact that they are look ed upon with danger ous terror by the horses which are driven on the Park roads and that their perform ances frighten many ladies they will cheerfuIly de- s1st from them. Not few people have al- ready stopped driving in the Park on account of the "coasters.'

lhanSaS City Time5
 A pretty little romance is rounding into shape in the office of an investment comuanv In this city. A handsome and worthy young lady type writer and 8 young man of sub
 stantial business standing, of good habits
 and pleasant place are the parties to it. An
 sgsa and "a. ~ well-to-do widower, who
 lives in suburban town, had good deal
 or business with the investment company.
 These things are gotten up in good shape. said he, land I'd like to see the one that
 composes lem. They are easy to read and
 are to the point" The old gentlemsn,s
 son, by way of joke, told his father that a
 nsnosome young woman prepared the let
 ters, ana that she was the sweatest and most
 practical girl on earth. The old man said
 little, but began an investigation, and at the
 once st the company was directed to roguelsn young woman, who admitted the authorship of the letters The old man
 meant nuslness, and very promptly and
 Polnteoly told her that she would win good nome and snug fortune by marrying him. The young woman would not make a posi- tive reply, but to carry on the joke gave taelt assent to the old boys suit.
 Aooue this time word was conveyed to the son who had sought to be funny with nls 1atner that the old gentleman and the young woman had really serious intentions. He then set about to stop it. Going to the young woman, he said to her in his matter of-fact way that he was decidedly opposed to marriage between her and his father: that he had money of his own and would gladly contribute any reasonable sum that she might name rather than have the mar. risRe take place. This was the first intima- tion that the young woman had that the af- fair was growing serious enough to be looked upon as certainty by the old gentle mans family. She very frankly confessed to the solicitous son of the aged swain that she had only been romanoing, and that he need not fear that she would take the office of step-mother to him. In this interview both were enthusiastically pleas ant and frank, and they parted good friends
 The young man found it necessary to call again and again, and the young typewriter, him cordially each time. And SO visits have gone on, and the friendship has grown into love between them, and here is he romance. This explains why wealthy young man is soon to marry 8 pretty type writer girl.
