The Hudson County Wheelmen had q
short business meeting last night. Moth
ing of Importance was done. The mem
beers inspected their new quarters and
congratulated the committee for the ex-
cellent taste displayed in selecting the
furniture and carpets and the tasteful
decorations.
The club started today for Spring Val
ley to have a meet at the Rockland
County Fair. The hour set for the de-
pafture was the 1:15 train this afternoon.
This would only have allowed them time
to reach the fair grounds in time to begin
their races.
This was discussed last night, and it
was concluded to leave on the eight

Williams whips Philips.

George Williams, of this city, and Joe
Philips, of New York, lightweight pugil
lists, met at a sporting resort in West
chester county yesterday and fought to a
finish. They weighed 1873 pounds each.
In the first round Philips got in q swinger
and sent Williams to the floor.
The latter was up quickly and rushed
Philips. He got in several hard blows.
They fought tiercely until the ninth
round when Philips planted a swinger on
Williams head and knocked him down.
1t was Thought a Knockout blow, and
Philips dropped his guard. Like a flash
Williams revived, and before the aston
ished Philips could raise his arms Will
liams was at him. Williams landed on
Philips neck and the latter went down in
a heap, and was down when the ten sec
onds expired. The fight was given to
Williams.
Il is a mistake to suppose. that Jack
Dempsey has lost the title of champion
middle weight because of his defeat by
La Blanche. He and La Blanche fought
at catch weights and the victor was sew
eral pounds over the limit of the middle
weight.

Patrick was sturdy lad OF 20. He had
learned by experience that he could not ex-
pect TO achieve anything Of a substantial ma
turo In ireland and he had decided to go TO
America. At the time when this story opens
Patrick had hidden good-by to his mother,
Who stood at tho door Of tho cabin watching
with streaming eyes the figure Of the boy as
it slowly faded away In the distance. She
died two months after his departure.
Half mile from the O'Donoghue cabin stood
tho comfortable stone house Of Mr.. Pheiim
Murphy, farmer In q small way. Mr.. Muir
phys daughter Mary was Is years old, an
Irish bud just beginning to feel the impulses
Of womanhood. An arch lass was she, whose
eyes shot gtanccs of light at tho boys Of chs
village. Among those who were hardest hit
by these arrows Of love was Patrick O'Don-
eghue. And tho looks Of admiration which
no bestowed upon her created delightful
commotion in her breast.
AS Patrick came up the road he carried a
shillalah over his shoulder, tho end Of which
was stuck through bundle which held all
bis earthly substance. AS he looked eagerly
toward the residence Of Mr.. Murphy he saw
Mary leaning over tho gate and his heart
gave great leap as che seemed to be looking
for him.
"Well, Mary, rnavourneen,n said Patrick,

and reappeared with shawl over her head.

Forgotten for the time was tho parting so

refuge Of the oppressed.
