RODE ON SIDEWALK
-Four Men Obliged to Put Up for the
Deed

Four young men were arrested yester-
day morning by Onicer Whaley on the
West Side for riding wheels on the side
walk. The men were Herbert Smith
VIII Stanley, brother of the police
judge, Roll Williams and A. c. McCor-
mick. Each OF the men were fned s. in
court yesterday. except VIII Stanley
who had 70 put up $. The people on the
West Side have been complaining for
some time about the men riding on the
sidewalks and the reports were that
about eight young fellows were the ones
doing it, 1ir. Whaley was sent 70 that
country yesterday and brought in i've
men. Most OF them were caught near
the corner Of Seneca and Maple avenues.
Au Of them were coming over town 10
work when the officer stopped them. The
men claimed that the streets were so
deep with dust that they were unable 10
ride. So they took the sidewalk. The only
thing was the men did not set or their
Wheels when they met pedestrians. They
are alleged 10 have some whizzing by.
and some people say that they were
scared pretty bad when the wheeImen
came along. Few of the wheels have
bells on them. and when they come I'd
