field glass, observing the movements Of
the English commander, he ordered one
of the gunners to charge a cannon; then
with his own hands levelled the field
piece and caused the gunner to fire it.
with the result that Lord Moore fell dead,
almost blown to pieces. The leading
files of the two armies then closed, and
as the Irish rushed to meet their foe they
made the valleys ring with their battle
cry, "Sancta Maria, Ssncta Mariap'
The English rallied, but the Irish
poured in upon them, enveloping their
front ranks and even cut way through.
The struggle in the Pass was desperate
one OF man against man.
Everywhere, amid the clangor Of arms
could be distinctly heard the hoarse word
of command of O'Neill. Gallant displays
of pike against pike, of sword against
sword, took place on the height called
Tully-an elevated spot overlooking the
Pass. The war cries, piercing the ear
with their shrillpess, and which, even
with the beat of drum could be heard on
Violet Hill, filled the stoutest heart with
dismay. The formidable heavy horse of
the English came rolling on towards the
Irish centre as if to overwhelm them by
their very numbers, but the courageous
band of warriors, sheltered under their
heads, closed together AZ d broke the
mass of cavalry.
Colonel Monk--now the leader of the
Enqlish-in vain endeavored to cut az
open passage for the horse. Still his
men, both cavalry and foot, made dos
perate struggle to clear the Pass-beld by
the pikemen, who kept their array un-
broken. The enemy now began to give
ground gradually, and Owen Roe observ-
ing this ordered general attack. They
rushed into the waters OF the river and
prappled the foe with the valor ct men
who felt that death on the battlefield was
preferable to life without honor. The
fate of the day was decided-the Irish
had won. Colonel Monk gathered up
the mangled body of Lord Moore, placed
it in wagon and gallored to Drogheda,
where Lady Moore received her dead
lords remains with many expressions Of
grief.
AS to the number of killed and
wounded on either side it is matter of
the loosest conjecture. 1t was fercely-
fought battle, and both sides must have
su ffered severely.
The English retreated along the Xii.
dalkey road, holly pursued by the Irish
horse, to Nobber, whore darkness set
strife at an end. A droll distich, said to
be composed by the English Protestant
chaplain, Rev. A. Clogie, IS extant--
"Rome's ancient rites are now but lightly
priced;
Since Moore by. owen Roe is cannonized."

EVENTS IN SPORT.

on Irish Athletic Games in America.
Mr.. Thomas Hughes, q member of the
Young Irelands of Dublin and of the
Emmets of San Francisco, and one OF
the finest Gaelic football players in the
world, has reached home after brief
experience Of American life. He was
hooked and extensively interviewed on
his arrival regarding the condition of the
Gaelic Athletic Association under the
Stars and Stripes. He gave a most
elaborate and glowing account of the
progress and popularity OF Gaelic foot
ball on the Pacific coast, where clubs
are as numerous as they are in Dublin.
Their president is Richard G. O'Connor,
one of the millionaires of the Golden
City. Not only have the clubs the same
patriotic and historic titles they have in
the old land, but they are mostly
differed on the field of play by men as
we'll known as Fred Palmer, late of the
Kickhams; John Purcell, J. G. Neylan,
Limerick; Tim O'Driscoll. Cork, etc.
The Gaels hired the Baseball Grounds,
and took the general public by storm.
They draw the greatest crowds seen at
any kind of sports. The players adhere
to what was originally known as Rule
Six, which prohibited catching, pushing,
or tripping from behind; the referees are
firm and impartial; the matches are
played with the vigor and dash worthy
of the picked mon Of a continent. The
Gaelic game is the fastest and most ex-
citing the: Yankees have ever seen.
Clubs thinks nothing OF charteripg a
train, and rushing of hundred miles or
so from Frisco to spread the Association.
The Emmets, who are three hundred and
eighty -four in number, have the best rec
ord in this and other respects. They
have played about twenty games at home
and abroad, and they have lost only one.
Their wealth, strength, and enthusiasm
enable them to spread one OF ths chief
National pastimes of Ireland over a vast
area. The Hurting, Mr.: Hughes says,
has not yet gone beyond Chicago, where,
ON his way home, be witnessed magni-
icent match in the presence of q vast
and applauding multitude, among whom
John Finerty was conspicuous. The
novelty of the game, the apparently
devilish recklessness of the players,
their immunity from danger, their fleet
ness of foot, and accuracy of aim, and
their indifference to the scorching heat,
have shown Americans that the Irish
Gaels are physically in this front rank.
Speaking Of the support extended by
the Press to the G. A. A. Mr.. Hughes
spoke in the warmest terms Of praise.
The reports are generally long and
highly sympathetic. They help largely
in the work of extending and popularis-
ing Gaelic games. In fact Gaelic games
are making fair bid to become the
typical games of America. With regard
to climatic influences, Mr. Hughes says
that the Pacific slope is admirably
adapted for Gaelic Football, the sum-
mer temperature being rarely over ninety
degrees when the boys want to play, and
the winters being comparatively mild.

DUKE OF DEvoNsHIRE.

The Real Reasons Why That Aristocrat is
Against Home Rule.
The Duke of Devonshire, who takes
such keen interest in Irish affairs, has
very substantial reason for doing SO,
altogether apart from politics or patriot
ism. He receives about ESQ, 600 year
in rents from certain Irish estates con-
fscated (from Catholics) in former days.
and, as the English habit is, appropri-
ated by inhabitants of England. A por-
ton of the Earl of Desmond's estate,
which the Crown declared forfeited be-
cause the owner had sided with the peo-
pie of Ireland, amounting to $4,000 acres,
exclusive of other thousands OF acres of
mountain and bog, was given to Sir
Walter Raleigh. He, when in prison,
sold it for $4,000 to one Richard Boyle,
ex-clerk of an English Judge, man who
had been convicted of forgery and horse
stealing.
Boyle, true to his character, never
paid more Of the price than 450O, and
subsequently he was made Earl Of Cork,
with patent Of right granted to him by
James l., over all these lands. Boyle
married one Of his children into an Eng
lish aristocratic family, and in that way
the Duke of Devonshire is at present the
landlord over all these oonfscated and
Irish acres.

The Sarsield Bicentenary.

On July -, two hundred years ago
Patrick Sarsfield fell upon the field OF
Landen. He was carried from the bat.
tleield to Huy. There few days after
ION July 23} be died of his wounds, and
was buried in an unknown grave, but
the memory of his achievements and OF
bis devotion to Ireland is as bright to-
day as his own sword on the battle morn.
A soldier of fortune, he was loyal to a
worthless king. Abandoned by his. king
he continued to fight for him, believing
that his cause was identified with that of
Ireland. Sneered at by the poltroon
James as "a brave fellow. but scantily
supplied with brains,' he rejected the
repeated overtures of William, one of the
first soldiers of his time, who recognized
mot without good cause) the abilities of
the soldier who alone of those against
him in Ireland was able to cope with
him. When he marched out with the
honors of war from Limerick, 1t was af-
ter defence which has given lustre to
the old city by the Shannon as bright as
the sunlight flashing on it's waters, and
when he believed he had made favorable
terms for his count1ymen in treaty
sealed with the honor of King William, in
which, incapable Of harbouring sugges-
tion of dishonor himself, he trusted, and
when, facing exile and the inevitable
hardships of foreign fields, William Of
fered to restore him his great estates
which had been forfeited, he proudly de-
clined the offer rather than desert his
flag. His place, he said, was with his
countrymen, who trusted him, and when
the blood spurted from his breast on the
plains of Landen his last thought was
of his country: ooh, that this was for
Irelandr Two centuries have passed
away since that cry was heard amid the
din of battle, and it has echoed down
through those centuries, and will con-
tinue to sound through the corridors of
time stirring young Irish hearts to hope
and enterprise for the land for which
Sarsield fought and for which he would
have died. Descended from line of
N orman soldiers, mayhap one of his an
cestors followed the white horse of
Henry, the son of Meiler," as he swan

to assault the walls Of limerick city,
even then renowned. But on the moth
