iontures at the head OF the wheelmen parade
To-day. both being new In the annual turnouts
oil the League OF American wheelmen. First
came detail OF policemen In full uniform and
armed for street duty. but mounted on silent
wheels. Then came a detachment OF the Ma

Washington claims the credit for being the
hrst city in the world to mount it's policemen
and mllitiamen on bicycles. The men passed
along the crowded thorcughfares In perfect
line. and cleared tho way for detachment Of
lady bicycle riders. So far "a display was con-
cerned. honors were pretty evenly divided be-
tween the military company and the Bridge
port hicyclers although the latter received
tho prize for making the best turnout in the
parade.
Every wheclman was on tho lookout for the
review by the President OF the United States.
The grounds In front OF the Executive Man
sion were crowded with oplookors mostly la
dies. They hnd an opportunity to get an OK
cellent view Of the passing wheelmen. who
