In an historical article recalling the
destruction of our National capital by
the British forces in 1914, Clifford How
ard in tho July Ladies' Home Journal
will show that Dolly Madison, the mos,
beloved and popular woman of her day,
was courageous and fearless in the face
OF grave danger. In the mad stampede
from Washington, that preceded the IN
vasion by TN. British troops, Dolly Mad
ison was the las; to seek safety in flight,
|lapd her final act before quitting the
White House, as the enemy advanced,
was to seize the Declaration OF lndepend-
encc and carry it with her to n place OF
safety. Aa the White House was i'm
medately aiterward looted and burned
by the British, Mr. Howard declares that
but for brave Dolly Madison tho price
less parchment would have been de-
stroyed.

There was an effort to hold meeting
of the city council last evening, but 1t
was unsuccessful, the second branch
not having a quorum when the roll was
called. In the first branch there were
nine members present at roll call. and
two others came in soon after, In the
second branch there was quorum on
hand in the corridor down stairs. but
all did not present themselves in the
council chamber.
In the first branch the following
members were present: Messrs. otto,
Hazlett, List, Halter, Horkhelmer, Nc
Kelvey. Weldebusch, stroebel, VII
llams.
Clerk o'Brien proceeded to read the
minutes of preceding meetings While
he was engaged In this Mr.. Berry came
over from the second branch and an,
nounced that quorum was not OBJ
tainable.
In the second branch the following
members were present: Messrs. Hig-
gins, Kindelberger. McFadden, Megrail,
Nesbltt and President Chew.
When the first branch had been in-
formed that the second had no quorum
on manu-, MOTION WAS Illhut 10 tAuJouln
and It prevailed, TO 4. OF course, the
second branch could do nothing but fol-
low suit.
The telephone ordinance granting n
franchise to the Peoples Telephone and
Construction company, OF West Vir-
ginla, was to have come up In the first
branch for its second passage, having
already received majority passage at
the regular meeting OF council three
weeks ago on Tuesday OF last week
II would have come up again, but the
opponents OF the new company were In
strumental in breaking the quorum In
the upper branch, so no meeting was
held. Last night II was seen that the
opponents to the new company were
In n small majority in the upper cham.
Der, so It was fortunate for the good OF
the Peoples company that n quorum
was not to be had In the lower branch.
Had the ordinance been rejected In the
first branch last night the new company
would have been In bad shape to cons
tlnue Its fight for q franchise.
Last night u number OF councilmen
got together and had a call issued for
another special meeting of council to-
night. They assert they will call spe-
cial meetings every night this week II
necessary to secure action on the new
telephone ordinance and other matters
that are ready to be acted upon.

poIICEMEN ON bikes. .
The Wheeling "Copper," Have Been Sab
iscted to the Craze.

Tho Wheeling "CopPers" Have Been Sab
ircted to the Craze.
Even the stalwart blue coats are not
impervlous to the bicycle craze. Sew
erai of them are the proud possessors of
wheels, and their less fortunate brothers
are beginning to look upon them with an
enviOus eye. The police force have be-
come greatly struck on wheels this sum
mer, and citizens who have given the
matter attention favor the policemen
riding the bikes where It is advanta-
geous.
Chairman Dawson, of the police COM
mitte., believes in the cops" using
bikes on their beats. II their beats cover
smooth ground. for they could ride
around the ward In much less time than
II takes to walk. and consequently they
could make more trips during their turn
on duty. Instance OF the advantage Gf
the bike" occurred about 4 week ago
on the South Side, Officer Dudley fig-
uring as the hero. A sneak thief had
stolen a valuable clock from flloon,
and In n few moments the alarm was
sounded. officer Dudley was told of the
theft, though he was of duty. Hur-
rledly snatching his wheel. he sailed
through the streets for Benwood, whence
II Was thought the thief had gone. but
though the officer rode Mt break-neelt
speed. his man had had enough start to
get across the river. Had the officer
been on duty he would have heard OF the
occurrence in time. and then the clock
thief would have been run down.
officer Charley Och In given the credit
Of being the fastest rider on the force.
Ed Michaels is training hard and hopes
coon to be on top. officer Walker is n
fair rider, and there nre Others. II Is
a mistake 20 think that they are riding
TO reduce their weight or that they would
rather ride than walk. The 'biklnE"
policeman has come TO stay; there is
need of him. And there are many peo-
pie who think the time Is coming soon
when the local force will be provided
with wheels. especially those on duty In
the outskirts OF the city. But wouldn't
they be guyed at first? Think OF Dan
Ingram and Ike Shields scorching!
