Armstrong, III tho Arm Of Armstrong
& Re.,L, In mourning the loss II u
wheel. which he received new, from
the factory but a short time axO,o
Mr.. Armstrong has been IN the
habit III standing his wheel on the
sidewalk IN the alley between his
place Of business and Narcotics
saloon. and last night. after riding
until $50 he left the wheel In it's
usual place. When he was about to
close his place of business, at about
10 O'Clock. he went out to get his
wheel and It: was nowhere to be
found. At first he thought some
friend i'm I taken it for a short ride
or mad hidden it for q joke. but as7he
has not vet heard from 1t he has
come to the conclusion that the per
son who took 1t does not intend 10
bring 1t back.
The name Of the whsel is the
League. aud 1t Is practically new.
only having been run a short time,
and il of II good grade. He did not
have the Eumber OF his wheel, but
telegrapncd for it, and a description
will be sent to the neighbOring
towns az soon IA he learns the num-
Der. He notified the police, but rs
vet NJ clue to the thief has been
found, and 1t is probable that he is
now many miles away with good
prospects oiescapinx detection.
w. e. Smith. Of the Buchanan,
states that an attempt was madeto
steal his wheel last evening. Hehad
been riding in the southern portion
of the city. and left his bicycle stand
ing against the sidewalk. He left
the place, and when lie returned the
wheel was missing. After about
two hours search he found 1t secreted
in some bushes. and it was the EVIL
dent intention of the one who put 1t
there to return for it later. Smith
says he saw two men passing that
way. One wore q black SLOUGH hat
and the other a derby. and the cloth
ing of both was seedy-lOOking, In
dica ting that they were tramps. He
thinks 1t was those parties who &C.
GREETED his wheel, and they may have
had something to do with the disap-
nearance of the other. ~
