A BICYCLTST'S
Complaint efTrumbull Street.

A correspondent says: The members
of a bicycle club which came through
New Haven one day last week on a
spin rode through Trumbull street,
which is considered as one of the more
aristocratic thoroughfares of the city.
The leader of the club later expressed
his opinion that this street was the
worst he had ridden over in any city
or town in the state. 1t is full of holes,
and the mud there is perpetual. 1t is
thick and Shiny, and two or three inch
es deep, and pools of water in the CEN
ter of the street may be seen any day.
The residents, on, either side spend some
time each day soaking the street with
water from the hose, and are not CON
tented with laying the dust. But mud
aside, and it is a feature which cannot
be controlled by the passing of ordi-
nances, the street is so rough that a
wheelman must needs ride slowly
throughout its length or receive a ser
les of shocks to his system which make
bicycling not the pleasure which it is
and should be, but makes it disagreeable,
and even dangerous. Surely the city
can do something to even the surface
of this street, and it would seem as if
action on these lines would be appre-
ciated by the entire public. Certainly
it would by wheelmen, and they are so
numerous that it would seem they were
a factor in public improvements
