BICYCLE RIDER
CAUSED INJURY
Aged Lady Crowded from
Sidewalk. Shoulder Dis
located and Bones Frac-
tured.

Some careless boy or man 90 bicycle
was the cause of serious injury TO Mrs
Harriet Douglas last Thursday night
She was on her way To prayer ~ Getting,
when some unknown bicycle rider came
up behind her on the side wslk and at
tempted to pass. Itwas quite dark and
she was SO startled that she lost her
balance and fell. her shoulder was dis
located and the bones cracked Owing
to her advanced age the accident is a
serious one and her condition is critical.
The rider did not stop to see what dam
age he had done, but rode rapidly down
the walk on east Main street and his
identity is unkno IN.
Ii is miraculous that accidents of a
similar nature have not occurred before.
Some bicycle riders have long ridden 90
b q sidewalk with utter disregard of the
rights OF pedestrians. 1t is now tune to
see that the ordinance regarding bicycle
riders is enforced and that careless riders
no longer infringe upon the rights Of old
ladies and children with impunity.

tied and It will be observed that the
only change made in the plan pro-
posed by the imperial German gov

either one of it's alternative sugges-

der that both of the questions under
discussion may be dealt with at the

Regarding Future Actions.
If this proposal proves acceptable
to the imperial German government it
will be necessary also to determine
whether, pending the arbitral award,
the imperial German government shall
govern it's naval operations in &C
cordance with it's own interpretation,
or in accordance with the interpreted
ton maintained by the United States,
as to the obligations imposed by their
treaty stipulations, and the govern
ment of the United States would be
glad to have an expression of the
views of the imperial German govern
meat on this point.

Hark to the voice from the depths Of the sky!
There's message to heed in that clarion cry.
The Red Terror which had swept over
the Old Pasture had become thing of
the past The little people of the Green
Meadows anu the Green Forest had
gone back to their usual life-that is,
most of them had. Old Jed Thumper.
the gray old rabbit who had always
lived in the Old Pasture, had decided
to make his home in a bramble-tangle
on the edge of the Green Forest You
see, he couldn't go back to his old
homo because his bramble castle in the
Old Pasture had been burned by the
fire Worse still, there was nothing to
eat there now. In fact, the Old Pas
ture was Just black and dreary
waste.
Only Old Man Coyote had gone back
there to live. He had a den hidden
among the rocks there, and of course
the fire couldn't burn the rocks. So
Old Man Coyote still lived in his den
in the Old Pasture. OF course he
couldn't hunt there because there was
no one TO hunt, but then he did most
Of his hunting on the Green Meadows
and in the Green Forest anyway, so he
didn't mind that.
BY this time most of the feathered
folks who spend the winter in the
sunny southland had left on their long

most too fat to waddle. and his neigh
