BYCICLE UP 4 POLE MYsT|F|Es NIGHT CROWD Whether it Climbed Up, Was Car ried Up or Grew There, Is
 Not Known.

Can a bicycle climb a telephone pole, even if there are d series of spikes upon either side of the pole? Can a bicycle. alone and unaided. throw it's front wheel oyer the top much as q lineman throws his leg over crossarm, and hang suspend ed between the ethereal blue and Central avenue? These are the questions the after -theater crowd was asking last night as they wend- ed their way homcward' past Class Brothers chop house.
 Farming and swaying with every gentle zephyr of the midnight breeze, was to be seen an ordinary, coaster brake bicycle impaled upon the tele- phone pole in front of the Central avenue eating establishment To a man on the sidewalk, there ap- peared little or nothing wrong with the wheel except that it seemed quite out of place.
 But how it came to be there was the really mystifying point. No one could be found who had witnessed the ascent of the bicycle to its high place. Nor could anyone be found who could throw any light upon the probable ownership of the machine. But the fact remained that the bicy- cle was certainly there and the own CT as certainly was not there, though it was suggested that he might be up a tree in some other locality.
 Nobody evinced a disposition to geinstate the bicycle upon terra fir ma and it will probably be found still swinging and swaying from the same pole when the eager morning crowds begin to make that section of the city again a scene of hustle and acfivifv
