D ERBY OYCEE PATH.
S15O Raised With Scarcely an Effort
 Contract Signed.

Contract hAgneds
 Now Is the time for the wheelmen of the city to show whether or not they are as much in favor of good roads as they claim to be. The Derby cycle path is to be started regardless of what New Haven whl do, but the half of the money which New Haven must raise is only beginning to come in. There Is no need to say that the path is good thing and very much needed, for every wheelman knows that.
 The path when completed will be the best one in the state. As has been stat ed before, the contract calls for path four feet wide and three inches deep, the bottom half to be of gravel, the top of white Connecticut granite, rolled tightly and graded, the work to be completed within a reasonable time. Owing to the fact that several of the committee In charge of the building of the path were away on their vacations the contract was not signed by all of them until yesterday.
 The Connecticut Concrete company will begin work at once this week now
  Sanford will engineer the path.
 The work of collecting money is not being pushed at present because of the fact that many people are away from the city during this month. But blanks | have been left at the various bicycle stores and the following firms have | kindly consented to assist by receiving contributions from the wheeling pub lie: w. P. Weaver, State street; Veru Cycle company, Orange street; Mac Gowan Cycle company, Orange com- | pany; Arthur Griggs, Center street; A. | A. Kellogg, State street; the Stowe Cy- cle company, Orange street; H. H. Guernsey, Church street; William A. Bean & Co.,, Crown street; Union Cycle company, Orange street; Campbell Cy- cle company, Broadway, and A. c. Ben ham, Chapel street, above High. | The following contributions have haen raceiVed in to date.

when Driver Dolman of truck asked
Policeman Kenny to arrest the man the
officer refused because he said he did not
see the act. Ii is said the crowd became

demanded the arrest of the fireman, whose
