THE BEE: OifAHA, SATURDAY, JTNE 21, 1913.
MOTORCYCLES ARE TOO NOISY
Complaint is Also Made of the Speed
They Attain.
3)0 NOT DISPLAY NUMBERS
Vetltloiui Are Started In the Ileal
dencc Section of Cltr Complain
Inir of the Raclnar Tactics
of These Machine.
If there were a campaign In Omaha to
eliminate unnecessary noises, the motor
cycle would be one ot the first Institu
tion attacked, according to members ot
the Economic league, who have their
tHscusetons seriously hampered by the
roaring Molley of explosions that pour
In through the open windows as the
motorcycles tear down the street on the
nights when the lencue Is In session. The
league is not the only organization that
would have the noise ot the motorcycle
abolished, but It Is only one of the many
that feel the need of a belter muffllne
system ort the motorcycles.
In the midst ot the discussion Thursday
nlffht Oliver T. Ertckson of Seattle had
Ills Voice completely drowned several"
times by the storm of rapid fire reports
ot a speeding motorcycle that dashed
down Harney street. The members ot
the Kconomlo league chairman and all,
leaned forward With their hands to their
cars In mi effort to hear the speaker.
A street car clanged by Immediately
afterward and the speaker's voice was
much more readily heard while the car
was passing than while the motorcycle
was In the neighborhood.
Noise la Unnecessary.
Everywhere on the streets the same
unnecessary noise of the motorcycle Is
heard. The machine Itself Is not one
tenth as large aa an automobile and It
makes more noise. At times they run
( smoothly without making the noise of
n battle of Waterloo, but at other times
the driver seems to take delight In
"throwing her wide open" as he shoots
tip tha street Just to see how much nolso
'he can make. The honk ot the auto
mobile horn that warns pedestrians to
step aside from an approaching auto
mobile Is completely lost and smothered
111 the roaring ot any little motorcycto
that happens to be dashing down the
Sftreet.
Prom the postofflce building most any
Hay can be heard the thundering of the
motorcycles In the little shop on Capitol
avenue near Seventeenth street. The
postal clerks groan wearily, scratch their
heads, stiok their pens behind their ears,
IT axe out of the window and say unkind
things. They take up their pen again
and just "stand for the racket" because
jthere Is nothing else to do. The barbers
In the barber shops along this section
ot Capitol avenue get nervous and cut
their strops, the laundrymen In business
along this street, drop bundles and for
get to write names on the bundles, as
the motorcycles roar In the adjoining
rhop, and witnesses in the federal court
are asked to repeat their testimony more
than once as- motorcycle-, thunder down
jtha street
Automobiles .used Co make more noise
than they do-until the muffler was per
fected. Petitions aro being circulated In two
neighborhoods for presentation to the
city commissioner to see It something
cannot b dono to stop some ot these
machines from making race tracks of
the smooth pavements of some of the
residence sections.
Complaint Is also made that very few
motorcycle owners are complying with
the law, which requires them to have
numbers on their machines both fore
aid aft.
Warrants Issued
for Coal Dealers
Warrants for the arrest of forty coal
ttcalers on a charge ot falling to pay
thelr occupation taxes were sectored by
John Orant Fegg, city sealer ot weights
and measures.
"The coal dealers have resorted to
horse play and I'm tired of It," sold
VfSS- "They secured, at the Instance ot
the Snnderland brothers, a, new occupa
tion tax ordinance and now have refused
to pay their occupation taxes under
that"
Pegs says he will force every coal
dealer to pay his occupation taxes by
bringing them Into court and compelling
performance. The occupation tax la $3
a year, for each yard or office and $1 for
each team used.
Aumrrro employes make

. Hen Beats Erie Express Train
LOUISA. NKW JKR3KTB S FAST HEN.
CIIBS8KII..U N. J., June an. Iioulaa,
the fast pacing hen, and ICd Short, the
local hotel keeper, arc the two most dis
tinguished beings In this town today.
Louisa's claim to fame Is that she out
footed an Krlo cxprgns train by pacing It
from Dcmnrrst to Crcsskllt In fourteen
seconds. Ed Short's distinction is that he
Is the owner of Louisa.
Two years ago this same fast fowl gave
George Deacon and his automobile her
dutt from Closter to Cressklll, but her
latest achievement has made her owner
wonder whether the speed laws may not
be enforced against his favorite hen.
Louisa hod taken a morning constitu
tional up to Demnrcat and was coming
back on the down track when the Nyack
Express whistled from Demarest The
news ot the peril Of the famous hen was
ftaahed back to Cressklll. Meanwhile
Ixnilsa had heard the train coming on
In the rear anrfbcgnn to pare her way
back at a good swinging stride.
All the Cressklll commuters were as
sembled nt the station to see what would
happen. Louisa never lifted a wing. She
kept about fifteen "yards Ahead ot the
snorting locomotive nil the way down the
track, and as she came In front ot the
Cressklll depot she paused, scratched her
nose and waddled to one side. Time, four
teen 'seconds.
Thomas Longflelri, veteran poultry fan
cier and1 ribbon .winner, stated that ho
would lay odds of two to one that Louisa
could keep In the middle of the road
longer ttinn any bird ever grown In the
state of New Jersey..
Mr. Short's pacing hen, he promised
will be put on tile track at Knfilewood
next Saturday and raced against the
gparithlll Flyer for any money any com
muter may care to risk.
