P0 MONA BICYCLE ORDINANCE
Test Case Will Be 1ade Of It on Next
Monday

Monday
POMONA, May 9.-On Tuesday evening
a party of some forty of the young people
took a moonlight bicycle ride to the foot
hills. The evening was SO light that Ian
terms were thought to be unnecessary. and
only few used them. The city marshal
noticed this and in the morning called
til attention of Judge Young to the fact
that there was an ordinance in effect pro-
hibiting any person from riding bicycle
at night within the city limits without
Il lantern. as o consequence of which a
warrant was issued for one of the riders.
A test case will be made of the consritu-
tionality of the city law. The city record
er says that in his mind there is doubt
about it, and he will carefully decide tn
case upon its merits. The arrest of one
of their number made the bicycle paruv
little uneasy, but if thu ordinance is
sustained the violators will be given a
reasonable time to come forward and pay
their fines. In case that the city mar
shall should be obliged to arrest the entire
party. he would have considerable of a
job on his hands and some fair prisoners
in his custody
