Belmont Church People Vote to Accept
offer of G. Henry Whitcomb.

At the adjourned annual meeting Of
Belmont Church Wednesday evening
the church voted to accept the offer
made for the church property by G..
Henry Whitcomb, and to look elsewhere
for a church site upon which to build
with the money received. Mr.. Whit
combs proposition to the standing com
mittee was to the effect that he would
assume the church mortgage and give
the church the free use of the structure
until Jan. l, 1899, as we'll as allowing
other considerations aggregating about
$4,000 above the mortgage. which is
3d. 900. The standing committee, be-
lievng that a new church could be built
better than the money to pay the mort
gage on the present property could be
raised, has worked to this end and the
vote is the result.
The election of Sunday school super
intendent was deferred. The committee
have no site in view. There is some diff
ference of opinion in the church as to
whether the move is a wise one Or not.
Mr.. Whitcomb was seen by Spy re-
porter after the meeting, but he had
nothing to say as to what he proposed
to do with the property.

AN EXCELLENT BICYCLE.

The searching investigation recently
made by the Western Review of Com
n1erce of Chicago, for the purpose of
ascertaining for it's subscribers the best
bicycle made, says the Boston Herald. has
brought considerable honor to a Boston
firm and its cycling products. stamping the
latter as undoubtedly the best wheel
made The firm thus honored is the well
known and long-established John p. Low
ell Arms Company, and its bicycle. known
throughout the land as the Lowell Dia-
mond" is accorded the palm, as the result
of long and thorough series of tests to
which the 81 leading makes of machines
were submitted by the Investigators.
This Is all the more appreciated by the
John P. Lowell Arms Company, as the in
vestigaton and decision were not inf1u-
enced in any way by financial considera-
tions, not even in the form of advertising
patronage, but was conducted with equity
to all and prejudice to none. The board of
investigation comprised some of the best
practical experts, who, after several days
of careful testing of the relative merits OF
the machines, were unanimous in their
verdict that the Lowell Diamond was the
bicycle of bicycles.
The first intimation that such an tnyes-
LEGATION was being conducted was received
by the John p Lowell Arms Company
when it was informed of the decision,
which affirmed to its machines the stand
ing always claimed for them by this repu-
table business house.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED
BY Central Labor Union Against TWO
Local Business Firms.

BY Central Labor Union Against Two
Local Business Firms.
At an animated meeting of the Cen
trail Labor Union, Wednesday evening
the matter of the employment Of non
union men bysCutting, Bardwell & Com
ing being erected by A. S. Lowell at the
corner of Foster and Norwich streets,
resolutions were adopted as follows:
1T having been brought TO the notice
of the C. L. U. Of Worcester that the A.
s. Lowell Company, doing millinery
business in this city, are erecting a
building for business purposes at the
corner of Norwich and Foster streets,
and believing that the success of said
company in business depends entirely
upon the purchasing power OF the peo-
pie, therefore be it
Resolved, that, as the trade unions
of this city are maintained for the pur-
pose of elevating their crafts to the
highest possible plane and also to main
tain a living wage, thereby becoming a
direct benefit to the whole community
and be it further
Resolved, that, as the A. S. Lowell
Company have seen fit not to recognize
organized labor by having their build
ing erected by non-union help, they
have forfeited all rights to claim of pat
Tonage from trades unions or theiI
friends; be it further
Resolved, that the G. L. U. of this
city request their wives, daughters, sis
ters and all others to give their patron
age to those who are willing to allow
the father, husband or brother a chance
to earn enough in wages 10 allow them
to have the pleasure of wearing a new
hat at least once a year"
The following resolution was also
adopted:
Whereas, the firm of 0. P. ShattucR
e. Son are today representing that al
trouble between them and the Cigar
Makers Union has been settled and they
are handling none but union-made ci.
gars, and as such statements are false
therefore be it
Resolved, that the c. L. U. call upor
all organized labor and its friends tc
lend their assistance to the cigar-makers
in their fight against the firm of o. P
Shattuck & Son, and all others who are
today antagonizing that body"
