Reckless Riding.

We have often criticised the
manner of riding INDUCED by seve-
raj bicyclists, and yet it continues.
This morning an aged German was
run into from behind, by young
man named Douglass, and was
felled to the ground. The old man
was weak and feeble, and the fall
caused him to receive serious inju-
ries about the neck and face. IN
fortunately no policeman were near
or Douglass would have received
his just deserts.

Sensational Charges.

Washington, June 9,-At today S
session of the senate, Mr.. Carter OF
Montana, in connection with the
rejection by the government of the
steamship Centennial as a trans
port made some ugly charges
against the ship owners on the Pa
cifc coast. He said they had been
endeavoring to hold up the govern
ment and compel it to pay inordi-
nate and extortionate charges for
ships to be used to transport troops
to the Philippines. Mr.. Perkins, of
California, denied the statements of
Mr.. Carter, declaring that the yes
sci owners of San Francisco had
placed their ships at the disposal
of the government at arate of fully
80 per cent less than they usually
received for them.

Anent the communication in this
issue about being run down, and
over by a bicycle rider, calls to
mind a trial in Chicago, where a
gentleman was sueing another, for
damages, for being knocked galley
west" by "scorcher.' The Judge
was a bicycle rider himself, and he
delighted in taking a spin, and all
of his orders and motions leaned
toward the man of the wheel
When the case closed the Judge
announced that he would take the
case under Amusement. He had
hardly reached the sidewalk, after
leaving the temple of Justice, be-
fore he was run into by a reckless
rider. He regained his feet, went
back into the court room and
wrote: 81 find that the plaintiff
has been outrageously treated, and

Unusual preparation had been
made at the church in the way OF

additions of local vocal talent, and
the singing was the best ever heard
here. The solo, RobYn's Thine,

son on the violin.
The brides gown was a white
organdy, over taffeta, trimmed in
Dutchess lace. The veil was looped
and caught with a diamond pin.
She carried a boquet of white car
nations and ferns.
The maid of honor Miss Eliza
Walker, was handsomely gowned in
dainty white organdy, over tat
feta. She carried a boquet OF sweet
peas.
Mrs. Ware, the brides sister was
gowned in white organdy and car,
ried a splendid boquet Of LaFrance
Roses.
When the bridal party entered
the church, the organ pealed forth
and the choir rendered a beautiful.
bridal chorus.
The rector soon made them man
an wife according to Gods holy
command, and the party filed back
down the aisle to carriages in wait

NJ. H. Jones, a travelling passen-
ger agent, was here yesterday. He
came in search of a King that he
might lay his grievance before, but
the individual whom he was in
in search of had taken the train a
few moments before he arrived and
left for the north. We learn that
this particular king" happened to
be "queen" and it is safe to say
that Mr.. Jones will follow up her
trail and tell her all about it. We
hope he may succeed in his under
taking and make his capture.
