AT Dan Lyons Dies the Death of a Bravado. New York. Aug. 21. Dan Lyons, the murderer of Quinn, the athlete, expiated his crime from the scaffold of the Tombs prison at 7 this morning.

Lyons passed his last night on earth in the prison cell in a cool, perfectly calm manner and collected way. In fact his state of mind did not change from that of the last month. His indifference to the awful fate that was before him was not bravado, neither was it religious enthusiasm. It was due to the fact that he either did not or could not realize his position. It was only at seven o'clock last night that he insisted on going into the yard to examine the gallows.

While there he entered the little box containing the weight that was to jerk him into eternity, and with a critical eye examined the rope that held the weight of 425 pounds. Hecooly remarked, "That wont be heavy enough to hang me." The deputy sheriffs could hardly believe their ears. Experienced men as they were, they had never met a criminal like this. They sked him to repeat the words and upon his doing so could not answer. HARExAK BROS 21.
