Police to Rigidly Enforce the Ordinance
 Concerning Ringing of Bells.
 At roll call last night the police of the several stations, especially those of the central station, were given strict orders to be on the alert for bicyclists who persist in disobeying the city ordinances which relate to them. Special attention the act of crossing streets which inter- sect Chapel and other streets which are most of the day lined with pedestrians There is strict ordinance regarding the ringing of the bell before wheelman crosses street or crossing, and this is constantly disregarded. In the future, however, the policemen are to arrest any one who fails to give warning of their approach This will in great measure decrease the number of acci- dents which have become quite frequent of late and which are bound to increase as the summer advances unless extra precautions are-taken and the ordinance rgidly enforced.
 The police are also to stop all scorch- CTS that they see, and if they do not ar- rest them they will warn them of the consequences if caught again. Scorch- ing is becoming altogether too preva- lent for safety of pedestrians, and des~ perate ills must have desperate reme- dies It is not in the least pleasant to be hauled up before the judges in the city court and fined a greater or less sum.

CUPID'S HARVEST.

Tn the spring sly Cupid softly GHdes around the earth once more,
 Painting here and there sweet nature, Till her beauty we adore;
 All the fields appear in grandeur,
 In their robes of shaded green;
 While around, as fairest jewels,
 Sweetest flowers will be seen.
 All the world for Cupid's harvest
 Puts it's brightest garments on;
 Fen the stately, sombre tree tops
 Now their bright green leaves will don;
 While among the leafy branches
 Birds will sing their songs of love,
 Robin, robin, come, I love thee" -"Come my sweet heart,' coos the dove. Birds and flowers sweetly greet us, Joyous spring-time is so fair,
 And all nature is enchanting
 AS gay Cupids fill the air.
 While in spring youths feelings deepen Into tender thoughts of love.
 All the world seems to be wooing, Fen the gentle turtle dove Birds and flowers sweetly greet us, Joyous springtime is so fair, And all nature is enchanting As gay Cupids fill the air; While in spring youths feelings deepen Into tender thoughts of love. All the world seems to be wooing, Fen the gentle turtle dove. Youthful hearts are filled with longing For some other soul to live, Sharing all their joy and sorrow, All their loving heart to give. If they could be loved and loving To the one they hold so dear, They would feel their lives so joyous Paradise would seem so near. Only those alone are mournful Who have disappointed been, When comparing all that's joyful With the life they could not win; And as balmy airs of spring time Drift their thought to other years, When they, too, were young and joyous, Ere they had a cause for tears.
