TO REGULATE BICYCLE RIDING.

The constantly increasing number Of
accidents caused by and occurring to
the bicyclists Of this city has prompted
me to offer the following suggestion,
which will, am confident, favorably
appeal to the more conservative and
better class of riders, who have the
best interest OF the sport at heart.
The adoption Of proper regulations
will tend to restrict the fast, reckless
riding Of many wheelmen.

within the city limits should be com.

sum Of 81.
The imposition Of this slight tax
would produce large revenue to the
city, which would 60 far toward build

for the tinseled and painted beauties Of

have been many experiences similar to
that enjoyed by the women Of the

Foy brought his big company here the
chorus girls were besieged by number
Of Lincoln Lotharios. and some OF them
narrowly escaped trouble. Then little
later 4 couple Of well known young men
made their way to the Lansing stage
and provoked something OF disturb

tanned at the Commercial club, and
now comes the report that two Of the
young women Of The Passing Show
were dined and wined by a brace OF
Lincoln men. This spring the young
mans fancy has largely turned to fairies.
What effect this latest manifestation on
the part OF Lincoln masculinity will
have on the booking of the Lincoln
