grip car. For some reason, which ev-
erybody in the trade Is busy in an effort
to figure out, the wheel trade has
branched out Of the wonted channels
and broken loose in the most surprising
places. Hardware dealers and the big
department stores have long been COM
petitors Of the regular dealers. but now
they find wheels on sale by dry goods
dealers. furniture dealers, shoe dealers.
clothiers. cigar shops, hatters. mems
furnishers, jewelers., stationers and
even saloonkeepers. At the present
rate wheels may be purchased as readily
as cigars, caramels or newspapers. AS
the struggle Of competition becomes
more severe the wheel may be expected
to replace the fresh country egg and the
toothsome prairie oyster as premium
with every drink; wheels will be hung
up like sugar-cured hams in grocery
stores, and druggists will be prepared
to fill prescriptions for cycling exercise
at all hours Of the day and night. Your
barber will gently insist on your TAX
Ing bike instead of the me-honored
shampoo. and your tailor will carry
wheels as a side line. Now that prece-
dent has been set 1t will be hard to

Hicks is q boy 16 years old and has already served three years of his term. He would, no doubt, have been sen tenced to a shorter term but for the statute, which makes the lowest penalty five years. His aged and wido wed mother came all the way from Missouri to secure his pardon
