Dr. Pitzer, the president of the society, pre- sided, and seated with him in the pulpit were the speakers of the evening, Mr. Jus- tice Brewer of the United States Supreme Court, Mr. John W.

Oyster, 00 Pa, ave nd all ‘kets.—Advt, — Drivers and Riders. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Anent the instructions issued by Major Sylvester to his lleutenants and patrolmen I should like to say a word. As a bicycle rider I have had much opportunity to note the rank violations of the law as regards fast driving and riding, turning the corners, specd at crossings, and particularly the much-abused “keep-to-the-right” section of the law regulating vehicles. About one- half of the drivers and riders obey the lat- ter injunction, especially on the avenue. About that proportion seem to be aware that that thoroughfare is considered by as two streets. It is the most difficult mat- ter in the world to avoid collisions when carriages, automobiles and bicycles are mixed in one conglomerate mass going in all directions on both sides of the avenue without regard to the injunction of keep to the right. The vehicle law should be published ‘sufficiently to acquaint all with its provisions, and then the bicycle police- men should de their full duty instead of standing along some by-street awaiting some unwary Wheelman whose lamp has gone out to make an arrest. I note also that bieyelists, as a rule, suffer the most, while the driver of an’ elegant equipage drives as he pleases and the wheelman is made to violate the law to keep from get- ting run down. In this land of justice and equal rights §t is but fair that ali be treated alike. Enforce the law, obnoxious as it is as far as the avenue is concerned, but at Jeast do justice.
