nCOAST|NG ON A BICYCLE"
The Charge Against Two Young
Men Ignorant of New
Park Rules.
Mounted Officer Harper Gathered
In Four Offending Wheelmen
Yesterday.

Four bieyclists were arrested in Golden
Gate Park yesterday for violating the regu-
lation recently passed by the commits
sioners governing the rate of speed of the
silent steeds within the confines of the
peoples pleasure grounds. The regula-
ton, as already pub I'D in THE CALL,
positively prohibits ''sCo;s,ing' or coast
ing, and limits the rate o. ssaeed to ten
miles an hour.
About noon yesterday Mounted officer
Harper noticed two Italians scorchi;g
ordered them to halt. The dusky sons of
Italy, however, did not understand English,
and so with a merry wave of their hands
sped swiftly on to the level plain below.
Officer Parker did not propose to have fun
poked at him, as he construed the friendly
salutation, but with an utter disregard for
life and limb started down the gentle de-
clivity in hot pursuit. He rounded them
up, so to speak, before they fully appreci-
ated that it was chase and not race that
the officer was after. AT the Central Po-
lice station they gave their names as 7.
Bangioni and F. Seatina. The charge of
fast riding was placed against them.
Later in the afternoon the same officer
succeeded in arresting o. Mehner and A.
Small, against whom now stands the
charge of "coasting on bicycle"
Mr.. Small said yesterday that he was
unaware of the recent regulation adopted
by the Park Commissioners, though he
was not exceeding speed of six or seven
miles an hour when hailed by Officer Har-
per. He admitted that he was coasting,
but could not see wherein lay the power of
the Commissioners to regulate the style of
persons riding so long as they kept
undaS the ten-mile limit.
The bicycle-riders at large do not take
kindly to the numerous restrictions thrown
around their sport as far as it relates to the
park, though they readily concede the
right of the Commissioners to regulate the
speed of any and all vehicles. 1t is not
improbable that they will combine and
make test case of that portion of the
ordinance prohibiting coasting.

returned from the guarantee fund amounted
to 1928, $40 80. While the reports do not

The Supreme Council made a number OF
changes in the laws of the order. The 5000
degree was restored. Each council should
elect its own medical examiner: councils may
pay sick benefits to their own members out of
the general fund of the council under such by
laws and regulations as the council may adopt:
there shall be but one assessment per month
instead of three as heretofore; relief benefits
shall be paid from the fund sustained by
periodical assessments from all the members
to be known as the Relief Fund, and to be paid
by the Supreme Council under such regula-
lions as it may adopt; the ritual and laws
shall be translated and published in the Ger
man language; member may resign from the
order by paying all dnes and assessments
charged against him and on surrenderins his
certificate; the collector shall keep an account
with each member, receive all assessments due
the Supreme Council, and pay the same to the
treasurer of the council, and report the same at
each meeting of the council. These changes
will go into effect the first of next January.
The executive committee was empowered to
offer premium, not to exceed $1,000, Tor

Several propositions for the protection of

Berkeley is about to be visited by an
other man prominent in the field of the
literary arts, George Riddle, a graduate of
Harvard and an actor of much experience.
Professor Edward B. Clapp of the depart
ment of Greek and Professor William d.
Armes of the English department have Sc
cured his services for a lecture to be given
at the university next Friday evening,
chiefly for the benefit of the literary stu
dents.
Professor Clapp, in speaking of him,
said: "Mr. Riddle will be remembered as
the actor who played the leading part in
the famous Harvard production of the
"G.dipus Tyrannus" In 1882, which was
attended by the most critical audience
that perhaps ever assembled in America.
His perfect pronunciation of the Greek and
his able rendition of the lines of Sophocles
won for him the hearty applause of all
present. There is probably no speaker
now living who can give a more vivid inn
preston of the force and beauty of the
Greek language than Mr.. Riddle"
