The bicycle sneak thief is on the rampage in Dunedin. A very smart machine was found during the ‘wee sma* ’ hours in the Triangle, Dunedin, last -week.

And yet who else would enter those sacred precincts and sneak a legislative bicycle. Mr Mackenzie, according to report, took the return of his machine as he had done the loss philosophically. ‘I hope the poor beggar that took it enjoyed himself,’ he said, with a serene smile.
