BICYCLE HEARING.

How to regulate the use OF bicycles on
the public streets, espec' ally as regards
speed, was Interestingly discussed at the
public hearing in tho Municipal Court
room last evening and many valuable sug-
pestions were received by he ordinance
committee Of the City Council from prom
inent wheelmen. George J.. Cooke, Esq,
chief consul OF the l.. A. W. for Rhode
Island, said that the league desires to
aid the officials to the fullest extent In
preventing reckless riding. He did not
think much Of lanterns, claiming them
to hinder more than help. Bells are all
right ana the best way TO catch fast
riders would be to have policemen
mounted on wheels and dressed In citi-
zens' clothes, a. is the vogue In Philadel-
phia. Mr.. Cooke thought IL would be
best TO prohibit ccasting on the city
streets q. Richmond Parsons, Howard
l.. Perkins and others also spoke, substan.

INCOME AND OUT-GO.

March LIST, income day of the
Wilson Cleveland ad ministration
has been a period of financial out 90.
The people instead of getting suffic-
lent revenue from tariff, in way to
protect their home manufactures,
industries and laborers are called on
to report their income to supply the
deficiency. Send your bonds over
the briny deep, pay interest Oh them
and admit their goods trec,-what
an outrageous imposition! People
who feel the pinching of these ter
rible times, must in astonishment
wonder, where the income comes in.
1t is trifing with human wants, stop
ping the air on the life line and de.
stroying even public credit and pros
perity. There are but few people
who can make both ends meet these
times, and q more favorable turn
will be gladly welcomed.

The Fourth Finger.

The wedding ring is almost invar.
iably placed on the fourth finger of
the left hand, and all because many
centuries ago the Egyptians believed
that a certain small. artery proceeded
directly from the heart to the ter
mination of that digit. In the CAT
tick Nights" we read:
"The motion of this artery may
be felt by touching this finger to the
pulse, It being an index in cases of
sickness, or where persons are weary
or overlabored, always informing
when the heart is overburdened or
offended"
Further on in the same article he
says: "This finger rarely has govt,
on account of the sympathy and
neighborhood it hath with the heart.
1t is the first finger that new born
babe is able to move, and the last of
which the dying man loseth control.
1t is also the one last to swell when
the vital heat is abating in one that
is passing over"

SENATOR ELKTNs.

There have been numerous dirty
attacks made by Democratic papers
on Mr.. Elkins which have never
found any other basis than the bel
lowing fumes of irresponsible SLAM

such assertions as facts and then the
test will come. A judge in New
Mexico, thorough Democrat, puts
these Democrats in ignominous dis
grace by the publication of letter
of contradiction of imagina airy

commentator of Mr.. Elkins' stand.

ending. There has not been anything
accomplished, on the contrary the
bonded debt is now larger than it
was when the people gave them
charge Of legislation and the bust
ness of the country is far below that
placed in their charge. Incompeteu-
cy never tarried any longer in any
place of business, or worked more

one try to bless the people with such
legislation, as will resurrect every

Mrs. Cleveland signed the consti-

fact would probably not have leaked
out if Mrs. Cleveland had not APP
peared at one of the meetings wear

seemed to be quite proud of it and
it caused other women to ask ques-

The advocates of silver now
known as the "whiie metal,' have q
hard time getting along together.
On the question for an international
monetary conference, in the U. s..
Senate a wide differences Of opinion
was brought out as to the ratio Of
silver. Stewart, Of Nevada, held for
a valuation of Is TO as the ratio.
This was opposed b. Mr.. Wolcott,
also a silver man. 1t seems as if the
proper thing TO do for bi-metalism,
would be to let the international con-
ference come to an agreement and
thus bind the leading commercial
nations of the world TO an ascertain
ed value in each kind of coin.
