ing magnificent work. having accomplished
more than three hundred miles in the first

he did in tho famous walk two months ago,
when he eclipsed the best record. WESTON is
close behind him, having also bettered all
previous three days records. WEsToE's per-

made break for liberty. The rides Of the

badly wounded. The system Of hiring out
convcis to work in gangs on railways, canals,
