Don't Dodge II bicycle.

Before bicycling will ever become II

A. il is nov, rider comes down the

Let the pedestrian, instead Of performing
all these trying evolutions, merely walk
along a. though there wasnothing behind

know what to do. He will turn TO one

An occasional collision at night be-
tween u bicyclist aud wagon upon
which there is 70 light, proves the need
of all vehicles TO carry lights after night
fall. The light on a bicycle enables others
to see the wheelmen approaching, but
oftentimes 1t serves the purpose OF OBJ
scuring the vision OF the wheeman to
such an extent that he is unable to see
anything approaching him. The only
remedy for this is to compel all vehicles
to carry lanterns. 1t is asking no more Of
the owner OF the carriage than OF the cy-
clisls, but on the contrary is placing both
on an equality, whereas under the present
usage the great army Of wheelmen is
Disseminated against unjustly. - Ne,o

had been carried from the houses that
were thought TO be in danger.
All of the buildings were the property
OF 4. ID. Wood, who has manufactured
carriages in HopewelI for twenty -four
years. He is now Postmaster.
The origia Of Monday nights fire is
not known, although many persons are
inclined to the belief that it was started
by an explosion OF some kind. This be e.
lief is based on the fact that number OF
persons living near the factory heard a
report, as OF small cannon, just before
the fire broke out. Mr.. Wood said there
was nothing Of combustiblo nature in
the building.
The losses were nearly covered by in
suraDce. The house and contents were
insured for 80, 800 in the Royal Insurance
Company, OF London, which will more
than cover the loss. Although valued at
81 600, the factory and its contents were
insured for SO, 900 in the Mercer County
Mutual, OF Pennington. 1t is thought
