CLEVER CHANGE OF
WHEELS WAS MADE
Someone Has Got Away With
A Good Bicycle.
HOMER HODGE THE LOSER.

Bicycle thefts in Richmond are be-
coming more numerous, and Chief OF
Police Bailey cannot determine just
what the matter can be. Many people
he says, do not at all times respect
the rights of others and in many in
stances ride off on a wheel for their
own use, not intending to keep the
machine, but leave it wherever they
care to, allowing the owner to hunt
for it. Carl Hamilton rode up to the
water works office on North Eighth
street and left his wheel standing. A
few moments afterward, when he left
the office, his wheel was gone and he
Immediately notified headquarters.
Later he saw Homer Hodge riding the
wheel and accosted him. Hodge stat
ed that he was taking orders for gro
ceries at 326 North Sixteenth street
and when he came out he found his
wheel gone and Hamilton's in its
place. Hodge is now out valuable
wheel. The police think the exchange
was made by some person desiring TO
throw tracers off their guard

CHANGE IN SERVING.

A movement is on foot among the
leading roads of the country which
operate dining cars to serve no table
d'hote dinners on their dining cars.
One by one the railroads that have
been welded to this practice for
years are abandoning it for the a la
carte plan, finding that travellers as
a rule are as well if not better pleas
ed with the latter plan. In connec-
ton with this it is intimated that
while pleasing patrons is of first i'm
portance, the change is proving more
profitable to the various lines.

COMING INTO THEIR OWN.

Fighting Judge" Benjamin B. Lind
sey or Denver, in vicious attack on
sSenator Simon Guggenheimer of Col
'orado declared that not the Senate
chamber but the penftentiary or the
'gallows is the place for Senator Gug-
igenheimer. Judge Lindsey bases this
on the fact that Guggenheimer is in
league with the corrupt element in
politics in Colorado and owes his cleo
ton to them. Such outspoken attacks
as the above show that the American
people are rapidly coming into their
own again. No longer can clique of
corrupt politicians force their PERM
cious rule upon a state and ply their
nefarious dealings without voice be-
ing raised against them. That day
happily, is passed.
In the past few issues of Golfers
weekly have been appearing articles
by Richard Harding Davis dealing
with his trip through Congo Free State
and the atrocities he has seen and
heard of committed by King Leopold's
merciless agents. In his last article
MIR. Davis recalls that several Ameri-
can financiers including Thomas Ry-
an and the Guggenheimers have re-
Gently received from King Leopold a
concession to work rubber and various
precious metals in a portion of Con-
go. Abroad the opinion is held that
King Leopold granted this concession
to very influential Americans in ord
er through them to keep the American
congress from doing anything that will
interfere with his horrible rule in
Congo.
Considered closely, there seems to
be some truth for this belief abroad
We find that the Guggenheimers are
interested in this concession and that
Simon Guggenheimer is a senator.
The Guggenheimers have been inter-
viewed relative to what their policy
will be in Congo, and Simon, speaking
clared that the concession will be de-
veloped along good commercial lines
and that the natives will receive the |
best of treatment. Mr.. Davis, COM
menting on this statement of Simon |
does not seem to be- |
1ieve that the natives will receive any |
better treatment than they did when |
wholly under the rule of King Leo |
pOld. He calls attention to the fact |
that already in the employ of the Gug-
syndicate, are men
who have been engaged for years in |
sending forth false reports about the |
conditions in the Congo region and |
hiding the true facts of the atrocious |
rule of King Leopold.
After all, how can dependence be
placed in Simon Guggenheimer's state
ment that only the best of treatment /
will be given the Congo natives? ST. /
mon Guggenheimer owes his election
to the senate almost entirely to the
corrupt politicians of Colorado, and it
Is difficult to understand how a man
who is willing to secure his election
by trampling the rights of his fellow
citizens under foot, would be interest
ed in righting the wrongs of the I'M
happy inhabitants of Congo. More
time and then an investigation will
show whether this alliance between
corrupt King Leopold and the Ameri-
can plutocrats has lightened or in
ere ased the burdens of Congo.

were made by people not residents of
the ward and stated that the property
owners in the ward, not residents, had
right to sign such a petition. Mr..
Johnson stated that the railroad was
clear line of demarkation and that
the people living south of the rail
road should not attempt to dictate
what the people living north of the
railroad should do. He stated that
there was a majority class of people
living north of the railroad who fav-
ored a wet" ward and that council
should heed their petition. Mr.. john
son pointed to the fact that the people
favoring the ordinance had not petit
toned for its passage while those OPP
posed to it had so declaredsthemselve
in black and white, and that their pc
tition had not been drawn UP in Sc
cret. He wanted to know where liquor
legislation was to stop; if council in
tended to drive all of the saloons up
into the business section of the city
so that saloons on Main street would
greatly outnumber the retail estab-
lishments? Mr.. Johnson stated that
there was a large class of people fond
of drink and that they were citizens
as much as the temperance people and
that they should not be Disseminated
against He stated that if the names
attached to the ordinance were fraudu-
lent. council should postpone final ac-
ton for two weeks and examine the
petition closely. IF you then find
that the petition is fraudulent, what
a magnificent opportunity TO expose
a fraud?" he remarked.
Ordinance Was Passed.
Council decided to consider the or
dinance at once. 1t was thought that
the body would stand to on the
question, thereby putting it up to the
mayor There was considerable spec
ulation as to how the administration
would go on record on this liquor
question, and the administration
heaved a sigh of relief when one of
the councilmen pledged to vote
against the ordinance, voted for it,
thus insuring its passage. Those who
went on record against the ordinance
were Councilmen Englebert, Brown,
Won Pein and Williams. Those voting
for the adoption of the ordinance were
Councilmen Deuker, Ogborn, Leftwich,
Wettig, McMahan and Bartel.
