BICYCLES MAKE TROUBLE
NATTER OF SERIOUS fMPORTANCE
To THE DETECTIVES.
Persons who Borrow and Abandon
the Silent Steeds-Sale of
the Unclaimed.

The matter Of dealing with bicycles has
become of some Importance to the local
police department. So much trouble has
been experienced with the silent steed-its
uses and abuses-that special legislation
has been deemed necessary and detectives
have been especially detailed to look after
such cases. At present this branch OF the
police service is in charge Of Detectives
Tyser and Trumbo.
At the recent police sale of unclaimed
property twenty-five wheels OF various
makes were disposed Of and there are about
seventy-five more held in the storeroom at
headquarters. Some Of these wheels were
stolen, while others were abandoned, The
owners Of some of them are known, but
they have so far declined to call for them.
In most cases, however, the police do not
know to whom they belong. The most
serious trouble experienced by the police
in connection with the work of recovering
bicycles, strange to say, is in getting the
owners of wheels to take the trouble to
call and identify their property.
Many laws and regulations governing bi-
cycles have been enacted, and the judges
of the courts have frequently threatened
yioiatorS with severe punishment, but the
offenders do not ordinarily seem to be very
much frightened. 1t has frequently hap
pened that bicycles reported stolen Were
only borrowed for a short time. and the
wheels Were soon recovered.
The offenders In most of these instances
managed to escape punishment. The con-
clusion is forced upon the officers of the
law that large number Of people regard
bicycles as common property. 1t is danger
GUS, therefore, to leave a wheel on the
street .unguarded. Almost every boy who
hears fire engine moving to a fire or is
attracted by the music Of band wants a
wheel to follow or scorch ahead Of the en-
gine or to keep up with the band. Hun
dreds Of those whe do not possess such
vehicles think it not out Of the way to bor-
row another's wheel. The police say they
have found scores of abandoned wheels at
fires and other places where large crowds
were attracted.
Under the law persons who borrow
wheels In this way are liable to fine I'M
prisonment, although the penalty Is not
so severe as 1t is in cases of theft. The
two detectives who are detailed on this
work have but little time for work in other
branches of the service. No matter what
the nature of the report about a wheel
may be they are required to make a full
investigation, and after several hours Of
work they frequently find that the wheel
was either misplaced by it's owner or bor-
rowed for a short time by some unknown
person and then abandoned.

NEEDS OF THE CAPITAL
PROMINENT MEN IN FAVOR OF LIB
ERAL APPROPRIATIONS.
Visitors Express Belief That the City
Should Be Beautihed-A Repre-
sentative's View. ,-a

Praise Of the District Of Columbia and
expressions Of hope that Congress may
look on the needs Of the capital of the ma
ton with the same patriotic liberality
which actuates the American mind in this
respect in every section Of the country Is
heard in hotel Hobbies constantly as the
sentiment Of prominent men who come to
Washington. Col. John Henry Jones,
prominent in the affairs of st. Louis. says:
Il am glad Congress is at length waking
UP to the possibilities Of developing the ma
tion's capital Tha-people throughout the
country are in entire sympathy with max
ing this city the most attractive In the
world
Mr.. Townsend Henry of Minneapolis
says: washington is essentially different
from any other city in this country. There
can be no rivalry or jealousy between the
capital and any commercial or manufac-
turing city. This must be great educa-
tfonal and literary center, as well as So
cial metropolis. 1 believe in treating the
city not merely as a place of residence of
those who happen to be here, but as the
city from which emanates the Legislative
affairs of the country
Mr.. Henry Day of New Orleans La,
has been guest at the Shoreham for ten
days, during which time he has. visited
nearly all the places of interest in and
around the city. He Is most enthusiastic
regarding not only what the city possesses,
but in the plans for its future Development
He said, Il am going to urge our senators
and representatives to be most liberal in
their treatment of the capital city. 1 have
made up my mind to spend at least one
month every year among the delightful
people have found in Washington. I leave
1t with the greatest regret and only be-
cause business compels me to do so.
Eventually 1 expect to make my home
here"
Representative NOrtOn's Sentiment.
Ever since I have been a member of the
House committee on the District of Column
bia I have been impressed that there was
something radically wrong somewhere be-
tween the desires of the people and also of
year in the way of providing for and i'm
proving the District" said Representative
Norton of Ohio. Il look on the capital with
great interest and pride, and l know of no
one among my colleagues or acquaintances
who does not, and yet it is plain to be seen
that the improvements which ought to be
made in many parts of this city are left
unattended to and the meagerest provision
made in a financial way for the actual ex-
pense Of maintaining the municipal govern
ment.
notwithstanding the past, however, I
feel confident that awakening on this
question has resulted, and the citizens Of
Washington, as well as the citizens Of all
ward to era of improvement In the Dis
trict Of Columbia. The whole matter has
begun to assume national air rather than
a petty local one, and what is done for the
city hereafter will be from the broader
standpoint of craftsmanship
