Two Men Are Arrested BY Officer
WhaIey

Yesterday two more men were arrested
by officer Whaley for riding on the
sidewalk The special officer has not had
a very large business for several days
but he keeps bringing in one or two each
day who persist in riding on the side
walk contrary to the ordinance. We'd
nesday the officer could only catch one
man who was riding on the walk. All
of them are new offenders and this is the
first time any of them have been caught
in the act. Some Of the men have made
a practice OF riding on the sidewalk all
the time and not getting of when they
meet a person walking. The people ar
rested have all kinds Of excuses to
offer as 10 why they were on the side
walk. Some say that the street has been
sprinkled, and If they ride in the street
their wheel viii be covered with mud.
Others think that if the street is dusty
they viii be allowed to ride on the walk,
but the police say that unless the street
is impossible they must not ride on the
walks. The two arrested yesterday were
A. J. Redban and :. Turner.
