For many streets have no side-
walks, except a mere path beside
the wheel track. On many more
the sidewalk merges into a grass-
plot, the grass"plot into the street
with no perceptible line of demar-
cation between the two. On Sat-
urday last a black negro with a
view to a witness ticket, swore. al-
though he was half a square dis-
taut, that a wheelman was on the

THE SO-CALLED TOWN COUNCIL.
EDITOR REFLECTOR :
The prejudice against bicycle
riding manifested by a few of
this town, and especially, by those
who the citizeus of the town sup-
posed were to represent them ip
the town council, is unintelligible
to us.
Now the petition to repeal Or-
dinance XLVIIL presented to the
board Monday the lst of July
was signed by many of the citi
zens and tax payers of Greenville,
and especially of 4th Ward. Yet
the Councilman from that Ward
seems the prime mover in legis-
lating against the wheelmen. Does
he or any other Councilman hold
his position to enact the will of
his constituents, or to foist his
own views and prejudices upon
those who honored him with their
trust? Yet before the petition
was read, as soon as its purport
was seen, significant glances aud
nods were exchanged, the board
was immediately canvassed. and
forthe rest, the reading of the
signatures of the petition teceiv"
ed about as much attention as a
Chinese mortality list would; and
the motion to tabie which pro
ceeded from the above mentioned
Councilman, passed unanimusly.-
ls this representation ?
Again: Since the Council has
insisted upen voting dowa a re-
peal of this ordinance, is it not
~their duty, and due to the wheel-
men, to make it plain, what isa
sidewalk and how far it extends?
sidewalk, whereas this wkeelman
\(white) swore he was on the grass
| plot outside of any foot path- Now
lif the Councilmen and, the scum
hore the greater part of them
|seem trying to favor, wished to
trick the cyclists into a trap with
aview to witness tickets"why,
they could not have conceived a
shrewder device. Is it right that
it should stand thus? ©
Again; there is much grandilo-
quentitalk at present against class
legislation. How is this for a
sample ?
The town has provided ways of
passage for foot paasengers, baby
carriages, &c., and for road vehi-
cles of a heavy nature. But any
intelligent citizen knows that un"
derthe present law aman who
has invested $100 in a wheel would
as well haye buried it in the
sands of the streets of Greenville.
In other towns such an ordinance
has not been passed until the
streets have been improved
enough to make it possible to ride
on them, s. g. Wilmington, Wasb-
ington, Tarboro, Kinston. Now
does not this ordinance legislate
against a clasa? Why should not
the wheelmen have some voice ?
and their friends? Give us good
streets or allow us to ride where
it is possible to ride. At least
give us equal privileges with
carts. and mark sidewalks so that
any trifling loafer may not be
uble to take advantage of the
present indefiniteness of bounda.

| The tree which is known to us by
high honor by the ancient Greeks
and Romans, says Rev. A. E. Daw-
son inGolden Days. They chose it as
a@ reward for virtue and valor, and
it was considered the symbol of
these excellent qualities. The laurel
branch was used as an instrument of
divination in their religious cere-
monies. If the leaves cracked loudly
when thrown into the fire it was
considered a good omen, and if they
made but little noise it was the re"
verse. To secure pleasant dreams
all that was necessary upon retiring
at night was to put a few laurel
leaves at the head of the bed.
If laurels were planted before the
door of a house it was secure from
evil influences. Aside from the
superstitiqus dependence upaen the
plant it Had a place in their code of
medicines. Decoctions of the leaves
were specific cures for many com-
plaints, while the sap of the tree was
considered by them as an excellent
_tocure epilepsy.

We are told by Juvenal that when-
~ever any happy event took place it
| was the custom to decorate the house
| with laurel as a token of the event,
|Just as we now decorate our houses
i'with holly on Christmas day. The
~laurel was especially dedicated to
Apollo in consequence of the gen-
/eral belief thdt it was he who
\conferred upon men the gifts of
poetry and prophecy. Pausanias
tells us that one of the priests of
this god was always crowned with
~laurel, and a laurel crown was the
~reward for those who competed in
|
| the games which were held in honor
of the god.
The custom of binding the brows of
conquerors with laurel was a very
ancient one. It is described as ex-
isting at the time of Aineas, and the
Romans adopted it at an early period,
| using it chiefly in their triumphal
|ceremonies. The victorious general
| not only wore it on his forehead, but
| also carried a sprig of the tree in his
hand. Sometimes this crown was
~gold, and merely in the fomm of
| laurel.
| When the messengers were dis-
patched to tell the news of a victory
laurel was placed on the points of
their javelins, in order that all who
saw them might know the news they
bore.
The death of Mithradates was
announced to Pompey by a sprig of
laurel. It was also used to or-
nament letters and tablets contain-
ing news of this kind. Victorious
ships were decorated with it, as
were those about to depart on some
glorious expedition. The laurel was
placed at the stern of the vessel, be-
cause there were the tutelary gods
of the ship, and it was to these gods
that the sailors prayed whenastorm
threatened to destroy them.
The laurel was also asign of peace
and friendship. In the midst of a
fight a soldier would offer it to his
enemy as a sign that he sur-
rendered and demanded quarter.
Lastly, the laurel was bound about
the brows of the dead who had
distinguished themselves in battle
aud who died victorious.

The Judge and the Umbrella.
The old fable of the lawyers
and the oyster, in which the
ownership of an oyster being con-
tested, the lawyers ate the oyster
and gave a shell to each of the
litigants, is matched by a story of
a lawsuit which a Russian news-
paper relates as entirely authen-
tic.
In acity of Poland, this paper
says, two men came into court
with a suit over the ownership
of an umbrella which had been
left in a restaurant. Each oue
introduced evidence to prove that
the umbrella was his.
Being unable to matchT the wis-
dom of Solomon by dividing the
umbrella between them, the judge
postponed the case. Pending
its decision the umbrella was
left in the judgeTs private room.
Later, as he left the court to
go home, the judge found that
the weather was rainy. He went
back to his room, took the um-
brella which was in litigation, and
spread it over his head on the
street.
On his way home he went into
@ restaurant, and left the umbrella
on the rack; and when he was
ready to leave the place, he
foand that it had been taken
away by some unknown castomer.
Then he bought another um-
brella, and took it to his court:
room. Whenthe case came up
the litigants were confronted with
it, and neither was atle to identify
it as his own. The court there-
upon fined them both for invok-
ing the law on frivolous pretext,
and they departed empty-handed
and decidedly onon-suited-�
