Novel Way to Avoid Arrest when

Novel Way to Avoid Arrest when
There Is mo- Way of Relighting II.
There is one way in which cyclist
can ride through the streets of New
York at night without light on his
machine and not be subject to arrest.
In two instances it has been tried with
success. and the iightless rider III each
instance avoided arrest by means of
string. Just Il little piece of common
wrapping cord.
This simple means of avoiding arrest
is to tie piece of string from the nan
die bar of the machine, whose light
has gone out and tie the other END or
the cord to the saddle post Of a ma
chine ON which there Is light. me
two machines thus tied together are
in the eyes of the law, Il tandem.
Chief Conlin. when asked Tor an
opinion on the matter, said that two
bicycles so joined together were to all
intents and purposes II tandem, There
Is no law which says n tandem snail
have only two wheels, and as tandem
means one before the other, the wheel
man Is perfectly safe in attaching an
| unlighted machine to one which car
ries a light and thus improvising Il
| tandem, and In such cases the police
have no authority to make nm arrest.
