Moved the Benches.

A petition, circulated among
business men on Alamo plaza, was
presented to the city council to
have the benches in Alamo plaza
park removed! These benches
were placed there for the benefit Of
strangers, invslids and others, and
for ladies and children Of our city
to take a little airing amid the
beautiful shrubbery and flowers
but they have been usurped by
loafers and hoodlums, both
day and night, to such an extent
that everybody else has become
disguised and given up the park
entirely to them.
The petition was granted.

BICYCLES FOR THE ARMY.

Helena, Mont, Sept 15.-The Twen-
ty-fifth infantry cycle corps, COM
manded by Lieut.. Moss, has reached
Helena from Fort Yellowstone. The
distance between the two posts of 191
miles was covered in twenty-seven
hours. Lieut. Moss and his men left
Fort Missoula twenty days ago and
have covered 100 miles mountain
climbing, across the main Rockey
and through the National Park. The
object of the trip was to test the bicy-
Gle in mountainous country. 1t
is the first practical test of the wheel
for military purposes ever made. On
that account the trip has much signifi-
canoe and has been watched with in
terest by men in the army. The trip
has proved the entire practicability Of
the bicycle for military purposes over
such roads as are usually found in a
mountainous country.

Drainage Needed.

Storm water collected yesterday
afternoon on Garden street, at the
foot of Martinez street, in such
quantities that the sidewalk for a
long distance on Garden street was
overfiowed and the street rendered
impossible for pedestrians. Only
a few minutes work for one or two
laborers would have been neces-
sary to drain this storm water by
putting in a little larger culvert
under the crossing at Martinez
street, and at Nueva street.
