2 to / were offered by the Newcomers and taken

Sammy Kelly were in Tommy Vests corner.
In Murphy's corner were Charles White, Mart
Gross, and Joe Bruso.
The bout was scheduled for twenty rounds.
but lasted only seventeen. West. who had
everything his own way throughout, expended
surplus steam. and. with q choice assortment of
rights and lefts, knocked Murphy nearly out.
The referee stopped the bout and gave the de-
cision to West. Murphy proved a glutton for
punishment. West was fresh when he stepped
out Of the ring.

Is possible 10 sell a wheel Of highest quality.
material, and expert workmanship. In an.
swer to the criticisms of our competitors and
the inquiries Of our delighted customers, wa
offer the following reasons for the very low
price at which we sell THE SPALDlN0
BICYCLE.
ErSt.-We are making many thousands o.
these wheels in the best equipped factory,
mechanically considered, in America. organ.
lied to do the best work, and. above all.
economically administered
Second.-We are buying the very best ma
terial at about one-half the cost Of two years
ago. which. with improved machinery, better
and more economical management. enables
US to produce our 1898 wheel at a cost far
below that of previous years.
Third.-We have Topped off all " expensive
habits" OF the bicycle business, such as cycle
shows. racing teams. art catalogues, souve-
Mrs. and other expenses seemingly necessary
In building up a new business and establish.
ing a reputation variously estimated in tho
cost OF construction at from SIS. 90 to $751; OK
per wheel.
Fowth.-In selling our 1898 wheels at $50
cash, we do not take In exchange second
hand wheels. which heretofore have been
accepted as part payment by all makers at
prices in excess Of their value as a merchant
able article.
HJth.-We treat a friend and the bicycle
expert who wishes a wheel loaned or given
to him for his influence with the same con-
sideration shown all buyers. and charge him
no more or no less than $50. so that when
you see any one riding a Spalding wheel you
can make up your mine he pays the same
price as any other rider.
WE MAKE BUT ONE GRADE WHEEL
in our Chicopee factory. and that Is the best
that the highest mechanical skill and the use
of the best material will permit.
Since the first SPALDING BICYCLE was
offered for sale in 1894 we have gradually
improved the quality each year. and our 1898
model Is the best bicycle we ever built, and.
we believe, Is superior to any chain wheel Of
any other maker in America or Europe. We
invite the closest inspection.

old story but he gives some new details.
McGisy, was, he says, the first of the
Indians to move Il muscle after the
torch was applied and he did not move
until the flesh was beginning to drop
from his limbs and the fire was begin
ming to touch his ears. He then gave
Il loud whoop and bent over as far as
the chain would allow him, and sucking
in the leaping fame, sank down and ex-
pired without showing any more signs
of pain. Not so with Palmer Sampson.
He did not move until after McGisy had
inhaled the flames Then he commenced
to kick with both feet, throwing burll-
ing pieces of wood twenty-five or fifty
feet away. 1t was with difficulty that
they succeeded in getting him burned. .
Mr. McMechan says that a baptist
minister named Hiram Holt prayed for
the two Indians before their execution
and that as he knelt in prayer he held a
rifle in his hand
