Dora Irwin and Her wheel.


The case against Dora Nicholas Irwin,
who resides ia Barre, Ter riding bicycle
on the sidewalk, came up IN city court
yesterday afternoon She was represented
by former States Attorney K A. Hoar and
States Attorney +. Al. Bailey appeared for
the state. The charge was that she rode
her bicycle on the concrete walk on Berlin
street, nearly Its entire length the other
day Mr. Hoar raised some novel ques-
ti0ns which the court took under consider
alton, 40 trial being held at that time The
questions were argued By the attorneys.
Mr.. Hoar first raised the question Of the
insufllciency of the complaint, second that
the city ordinances by implication, so far
as the city of Montpelier was concerned,
took precedence over the general law in
relation to bicycle riding. II that was true
the city attorney must prosecute action
brought up under the ordinances, and the
third question, should the court take that
view in the second question, was to the
effect that the state attornry did not have
jurisdiction before the city court and that
the complaint should have been made by
the city attorney, hence the states attor-
pey had no jurisdiction ii the matter, there
being no valid complaint before the city
court. These questions were replied to by
the states attorney, and the court took
them under consideration and will not rule
for few days. The respondent was ar
raigned on a complaint brought under the
general law Montpelier Argus
