POLICEMAN ON BICYCLE
ASSUMES INVISIBLE ROLE
Colored Youth, Full of Scrap,
Learns Why Pedal-Pushers
Are Retained on Force.

Why in this era of high speed are
policemen kept on bicycle duty?
The idea of perspiring, pedal-push-
ing policeman attempting to catch a
modern speeder is just too pathetic to
consider without straining all the finer
emotions But the true reason may
have been revealed in this city last
night 1t must be to make policemen
invisible. That is the way 1t worked
out when Seymour White, colored. Is
years old. l744 Seaton street. got into
a fight with another colored youth.
Seymour. his arms full of empty quart
milk bottles, with which he was
bombarding his antagonist. was fighting
a glorious battle Entered the invisible
policeman, r. v. Wolfe. pedaling his
bicycle to the scene in response to an
alarm. At least he was invisible to the
excited Seymour.
Swinging a bottle which he was
about to let fly in glittering trajectory
toward his antagonist. Seymour stepped
back and crashed into the bicycle and.
what was worse, the policeman. With
a mighty crash, Seymour and his am
munition fell to the street. The milk
bottles proved no more friendly to their
would-be finger than TO their intended
target and Seymour went to Freedmen's
Hospital to have badly cut finger
treated. Then he was arrested on
charges of breaking glass in the street,
disorderly conduct and throwing
missiles.
