THEY HAD WHEELS.
Not in the Head But on the
Sidewalk.
And it Cost Them S4.60 For Violating
the Ordinance.

For some time past bicycle riders who
Insist In using the sidewalk on Central
avenue for their street steeds have given
officer Hand and the residents OF that
street lots of trouble especially on Sun
day. The people got so that they were
afraid to walk on the sidewalks as Il was
dangerous and took to the cutters, while
the bicycle fiends sailed along on the foot
path made for pedestrians. When the of
ficer tried to stop them they would 90 out
into the street and around the officer and
with some taunting remark squirt along
In high giee. Yesterday, however, trap
was set for some OF these smart young
men and Officer Mooney was sent out
there In citizens clothes. He stationed
himself q short distance beyond Hand and
soon three bicyclists came along on the
sidewalk. They ran out around Hand.
but they did not know Mooney was an
officer and he captured them. The police
wagon WAS sent for and the prisoners and
wheels were taken to the station. Gener-
ally when an arrest Is made the "wheeis"
are In the prisoners head, but this time
the wheels were In the wagon. At the
station they gave their names as Henry K.
Walker OF Lonsdale and Charles Coloson
and Everett Hall of Providence ana said
they were on their way to Attleboro.
Hall is one OF the crack racers OF tho
Narragansett Wheelmen. Each was fined
~ and costs. They tried to explain by
saying that there was q mud puddle In
the road and went on the sidewalk to
avoid riding through It. The court told
them that the ordinance did not make
any allowance for mud puddles and that
they should have dismounted and walked
around 1t. Notices have been posted all
oyer the city In regard to riding on side
walks and wheelmen should take notice.

ALL DOWN THE RIVER.
That's Where Most of the
People Went Yesterday.
Manager Boyden Elated Over the
Thropg-Jerv Fournier Happy.

Yesterday was q great day down the
river.
The morning rays OF the refulgent sun
induced about 10000 people to visit Cres-
cent Park and It's borders.
The Pawtucket Steamboat Co. carried q
multitude OF people to the various shore
resorts, and the residents OF the Black.
stone valley and the Attleboros are now
realizing that they get better service In
this city than In Providence for transport
tation.
At Crescent Park the throng In the
afternoon surprised even Manager Boy
as he looked from the window of his resi-
dence during the thund nderstorm and shifted
gold mounted cuspidore from a corner
OF bis parlor to place In the centre OF the
room whore drops OF water fell as fast as
the nickels from Jerry Fournier's new
machine when II was "hit."
The dinner at Crescent Park surpassed
all previous efforts of the management,
and the CLAIMS were as succulent as ripe
cherries In their season. The ball game
was obliterated by the rain, but Tom
Reilly caged all the visitors and sheltered
them Till the storm was over In his NAM
moth enclosure.
"Pinafore" will be produced on Lake
Richmond every afternoon and evening
this week.
At FOurnier's Hotel.
"Come early or you will get nothing,'
Is the remark OF Jerry when you are lit
tie late. But this Is not the case, for bis
attendants are ever ready during season
able hours to serve you With the best shore
dinner on the bay. Yesterday he appeased
the appetites OF over 400, and sent them
away happy. Jerry gives a clambake
every Wednesday and Sunday and every
day a chowder. He will furnish a party
with special bake within twenty-four
hours notice.
