AN ORDINANCE vIoLATOR.

This morning about IL O'Clock a
young man, violating a city ordinance
by a riding a bicycle on the sidewalk
on South Alamo street, was severely
punished for his lawbreaking. He
was riding along the sidewalk and in
attempting to pass between gentle
man pedestrian and fence, one of his
handlebars struck the gentleman on
the arm, turning the wheel suddenly
off the sidewalk, smashing it pretty
badly and throwing the rider in the
middle of the street where he was
slightly stunned.

The residents in that neighborhood
have been annoyed great deal of
late by various boys with target
guns and have complained repeatedly
to the police of the nuisance, but the
officers have heretofore been unable
to catch any of the youngsters.
The recorder says this is a nuisance
which should be abated and that he
will fine the next ones brought before
him ON like charge.
The Light, however is Of the opin-
ion, in which the residents near Mid
way heartily concur, that the ordi-
nance should also be enforced against
the gun clubs that shoot indiscrimin-
ately all Sunday afternoons, to the
great danger of pedestrians and people
driving to and from West End. The
gun cranks should be allowed no
more privileges than the little boys
chasing rabbits and birds. If the
shooting of small boys is nuisance
the shooting by men on sundays is a
double nuisance.

rHE EARN HNACu su0w

The Bradley Martin show isn't the
only interesting show that has occurred
lately. There was a show at Bath
Beach Uong Island) the other evening
which ought to attract some attention
outside of the attention it attracted
at Bath Beach. 1t was given for the
benefit of the Methodist church in that
place. The title of 1t was "a Trilby
Party and it was delicately devised
by the young women of the church.
Invitations We're issued to all the young
men of the church, and as many of
them as could afford to responded,
They went to see something and they
saw it. The sight that met their gaze
was that OF about twenty pairs of bare
feet protruding from behind big cur
tain stretched across the parlor They
were of all sorts and sizes. In the cen
ter of the row was one pair that drew
forth admiration from the men. 1t is
not stated that any corns or bunions
could be seen. The several feet were
tastefully decorated with ribbons, and
rings encircled some of the toes At
ter inspection one of the men began to
auction off each pair of feet, and the
prices ranged from fifty cents to sew
enty-five. The purchaser in each case
had the privilege of taking the owner
of the feet in to supper.
1t is reported that the success of this
show was very gratifying Quite
likely, although those who were graft
fed are not specified Feet exposed for
the church at Bath Beach and busts
exposed for the world, the flesh and
the devil at the Bradley Martin ball.

and tried to kill the librarian of the
University. BY this time the garrison
had been called out and the University
building blockaded, but somehow or
other the students managed to get
supply of arms and provisions, and had
no difficulty in holding their position.
After nights siege several hundred
of them marched out, without molesta-
ton, with the purpose of going to the
palace, but, finding that too strongly
guarded, they resolved to visit the
prime minister. On the way they en-
countered more soldiers and police, and
there was a brisk discharge of fire.

collar was finished with bow of fine
lace, the exclusive combination of lace
and real fur being thus reproduced.
Brown or tan hose with black shoes,
or the reverse, is inadmissible. There
is a tendency to push the wear of rus
set leather for all street occasions, and
russell shoes and stockings are seen
with all black costumes. Usually
however the idea is supported by a
touch of brown in the hat, by the gloves
or the belt. When black shoes are
worn for the street they should be dull
finish, heavy soled and of general dura
BILE effect. Patent leather, delicate kid
and very high heels are affected only
by the too conspicuous. The excessive
ly pointed toe is no longer seen, a mod
crate rounded finish being the right
thing for all but the dressiest wear.
For dancing the slipper is worn as
short as possible and fits the foot so
closely that by looking very carefully
the imprint of each little toe can be
seen, and the foot seems gloved instead
of slippered. The high boot prevails
in the stock of spring footwear for ath-
letic and wheel use. 1t has been voted
the most comfortable and becoming
thing possible 1t is necessary that the
ankle and leg should fit perfectly, and
that the finish of heel, toe and sole
should be distinctly sensible" else a
comic opera effect will result and the
rig seem rather fast than in correct
taste. FLORETTE.
