Cyclists Unconsciously Follow the Rules Of
the Road When Walking.
You can tell a bicycle rider by his
walk. Not because Of a popularity Of
gait, but for the reason that he uncon-
sciously follows the rules Of the road
that he has learned while riding BIZ
cycle.
On the sidewalks of the crowded
streets Of New York and Brooklyn a
gentleman whose acquaintance among
bicycle riders is quite extensive has, as
matter Of curiosity, watched his cy-
cling friends walking to and from bust
ness. Almost without exception they
pass to the right when meeting other
pedestrians and to the left when pass
ing them from behind When turning
a corner, the pedestrian who has learned
to cycle hugs the wall closely if going
to the right and is almost sure to make
a long turn if bound to the left.
If all pedestrians would observe the
rules of the road on the sidewalks as
we'll as the experienced cyclists observe
them on the highways, there would be
fewer toes trampled upon and fewer
persons nudged in the ribs by protrud-
ing and sharp elbows
There is nothing more annoying to
the participants and nothing more
laughable to the spectator than to see
two persons da1icing up and down and
taking series Of side steps because
both started to pass each other in the
wrong direction.

An Illogical Motive.

Martin Thorns account of the Gulden
suppe murder is unsubstantial in one ma
terial point and 1t will fail to convince the
average intelligence that he is guilty CT no
more than a mere completely in the dis
posal of the body of the slaughtered man.
According to his account he took 10 part
whatever in the killing but found Mrs.
Mack red-handed. He then helped the
woman dispose Of the corpse, doing this. as
he says, solely because of his grea; love
Tor her. His motive thus appears to have
been a desire to shield her from the cons.
quences OF her crime, but Thorn's later
revelations do not bear out this motive.
He accounts for the knowledge of the crime
enjoyed by the barber Gotha by asserting
that he TOLD Gotha that Mrs Mack Killed
Guldensuppe. Gotha swears that Thorn
confessed to him that he did the killing
himself Had Thorn loved Mrs Mack suf-
ficiently to enter upon a scheme to protect
her from punishment he would surely have
taken the most obvious course to that end
by remaining silent to a babbler about her
guilt. 1t is far more probable. as human
nature runs. that he would tell of his own
crime than Of that of the woman whom he
processes to have loved sufficiently 10 en-
