A SPEED LIMIT FOR BICTCLES. "There is a good deal of feeling on the part of horscmco toward ridors of wheels, but I think it Is all due to the latter. If bicyclists would only observe the rules that drivers are compelled to abide by there would be none of tho clashing.

We are not allowed to faster than ten mile an hour in the Park. Why ahould chinesthat is, horses which do not shy at shadows, bils of paper and waving wherever horses are allowed to draw vehicles, and that all restrictions be removed. TUB RESTRICTION. The Park restrictions most complained of are those which deny to bicyclists the right to tho full length of the main drive on Saturdays and Sundays. According to the Park regulations no bicycle 1 permitted to pass along the main drive from tha throe flagpole near the main entrance to the Casino between the hours of noon and 5 o'clock p.

m. on Saturdays, Sundays and holiday. Between those hours on those days tbe blcycllsl are forced to take the eouth drive, which passes above tbe Children' playground, or to the north drive, which overhangs the Conservatory and debouches upon the main drive at tha old Casino, now converted tnto a museum. They aro also ahut out of the concourse or "corral" near the music stand, which is a favorite rendezvous. The north and aouth drive are hilly, and bills are not relished by the riders.

The roads are not kept in as good repair as the main drive, and good roads are necessary to make bicycling reach the topmost notch of enjoyment. Again, ever since the Fair opened there has been no way to get from the south drive back upon the malo road until Strawberry branches. Thoy contend that such norvous animals should not bo permitted in the Park anyhow, as thay menace life and endanger limb. ble to wheels as tbey aro to baggies is con.

If I bad tha power I would do something of that sort, and I don't see why tha Park Commissioners do not do so. The way soma of these hoodlum ride 1 frightful. They are not content to use one part of tho road, but tbey mut wabble all ovr It and they are just as likely aa not to wabblo into team.

Then you have a smashup, and as a rule the wheelman it is your fault for not getting out of tha way." Belgian workmen traia cooks to crow against each other. One trained rooster ta Belgium ha crowed 837 time in aa cyclists a respite for three nights of each lunar month. But now the wheelmen are aying the time should be to at least one week for each month, as the moon is sufficiently bright during that timo to make their movements perfectly plain to horsemen and pedestrians, so that thore can be no possible danger to any one. The light of tho lanterns on moonlight nights is annoying and misleading to the riders, and they look upon the throe night schedule as altogether too ceutraoted a period of liberty. But it la the main drive trouble after all which is tho cause of the prlbtfpal protest from the riders.

On June 27 th "the Commissioners reduced the time limit when the bicyclists are shut out by one hour, extending the open season from 11 a. m. until noon, and making the rule apply only to days when the band play in the music stand. la insisting upou tho closed hours for the and they are not even able to control tbelr inn.

John Murphy, proprietor of the St. George Stabies, thinks that bicyclos should uot bo allowed where high-spirited horses are driven. I have had half a dozsn valuable horses ruined on account ot bicycles," he said, "and my patrona have had as many more made worthless. Most of those wheelmen think they own the road.

If they see your believe that bicyclist have as many rights as horsemen and that they shou'd be respected. But then I do not think that It would be a proper thing to lot them go into the concourse on Saturday and Sunday afternoons or along the main driveway when it is so crowded with teams.
