RECRUITING ron nIoYonE UNION.
Concerted Action for Good streets.

Concerted Action for Good Streets.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND CouRiEn:
Every place in the city, with the ex-
ception of one, where bicycles are sold
or rented, or where bicycle goods OF
any character are dealt in is now a re-
crulting agency for the Bicycle union.
The dealers have shown a most intelli-
gent and gratifying sense of the impor-
lance of the work that the union is
FORMED to carry out, and are doing all
that they can to help it along with II
most commendable spirit. Any one de-
string to join the union can now do so
by signing the constitution and paying
the nominal fee of fifty cents at the
place where he or she is sure to be
every few days, at his or her bicycle
shop.
This concerted action of bicyclers in
the direction Of pressure for good
streets is one that ought to succeed,
ano will if the riders Of the city show
the interest in it that there is every
reason to expect from so vigorous a
portion of the community.

Carlos French and Clinton Il. Davis Com
pare Notes Behind Closed Doors-Both
Reticent 10 Give Out Whit Was Said.
There was considerable speculation
yesterday afternoon and evening among
local temperate political workers, as
to the short conference held yesterday
morning between National Committee
man Carlos French and Chairman Gin
ton B. Davis but as neither of these
heads of the party organization deem
ed that the time had come to disclose
the results of the conference the ex-
pectant workers will have to live in an
ticipation until one or both have come
to the conclusion that the time to speak
has come.
The only one present at the confer
ence besides the committeeman was
Secretary Fred B. Brown of the state
central committee. He was as reticent
as to what took place as the other two.
1t was understood that the confer
ence was about the advisability of call
ing another state convention, which Mr..
Davis said he thought would be called
to decide whether the men who are
opposed to the silver candidates and
platform of the Chicago convention
should put a gold ticket in the field.
Mr. Davis said that he thought a
state convention would be called to de-
eide whether the Chicago ticket should
be supported. or a gold one put in the
field. He also said that the question
whether the conference should be called
would be decided at a joint conference
| of the state central committee and the
| delegates to the Chicago convention
| When this conference would take place
| had not been decided.
Mr.. Davis expressed his sorrow at
| the untimely death of w. e. Russell
and paid a tribute to the worth of the
| late ex- governor of Massachusetts.

Frank Ridden, eleven years Old was
found on Thursday morning chained
to the floor of his fathers house, at $50
Peck street. Persons living near the
Ridden house made complaint to DR.. c.
B. Adams, agent of the Humane socie-
ty. and he made an investigation. He
found the boy in a bedroom on the sec
ond floor OF the house chained to the
floor. One end OF the chain was fast
ened to a ring in the floor, and the
other to an iron band which encircled
one of the boys ankles.
The boys mother is dead, and his
cousin, fifteen-year-old girl, does the
house work. He has two brothers, one
fifteen years old, who was away to
work when DR.. Adams called. The
other brother is five years old, and he
and the youthful housekeeper were in
the house at the time. The chained boy
was well clad and apparently well fed.
He also had papers and books to read.
His father is James Ridden, a black
smith employed at Kean & Lines. He
gave as reason for claiming the boy
that he (the boy) would not go to
school. and as his father could not re-
main at home to watch him he chained
him to keep him out of mischief The
boy had been chained three weeks. tie
will be sent to the reform school. 1t Is
probable that his father will be ar
