Automobile drivers who are eX-
ceeding the speed limit pay scant at
tentiOn as a rule to bicycle policemen
who order them to stop, so one OF the
wheel squad has mastered the unique
and hazardous feat of swinging from
his wheel to an automobile while 1t IS
going at full speed. For several
weeks the bicycle policeman has prac-
ticed this feat, using autos whose
drivers assisted in the test. In the
future, it is safe to say, that auto
lists while driving over his particular
route, at least will comply with the
laws demands regarding speed.

Albeit that the ladies were chic. that
they were strfkingly handsome, even
In lowered vests and derbies. and de-
spite the fact that IL was only on
Chinatown's streets that they aired
their graces, they were ignominiously
hailed before Captain of Detectives
Martin and Police Chief Whitman.
Tears In plenty that rolled down the
usarchod shirt fronts and fascinating
feminine sobs beneath the lowered
vests at hast melted even the frigid dig

they allowed the culprits TO escape

Il was a few minutes before ten
o'clock when Officer Brown, of the
Chinatown squad. saw a jeering crowd
of Chinese kids following a big man
and three dainty little gentlemen on
Dupont near Sacramento street He
investigated and found that beneath
the brown derbies of the delicate
young men coils of hair were mRssed
and high-heeled shoes peeped from be-
meath the trousers hens. Promptly
summoning hack, discreet Officer
Brown took the gentleman and his
three chic companions down to the
hall Of justice.
'What does this mean?" said Capt.
Martin, in his severest tones.

Of the nattily clad figures between
sobs. 81 am from Chicago and my

Whitman and at last, with a bless-you-

the trembling ladies and their equally
perturbed escort.
To avoid the inquisitive newspaper
mon the hack, awaiting in the court Of
the hall of justice, was quickly entered
and the horses whipped up Kearny
