TO WELCOME FATHER CARROLL.
Congregation Of st. Patrick's Pre-
pairing to Receive Their Pastor.

Preparations are being made to give
Father Carroll, the rector of st. Patrlck's
r. c. Church, a grand reception on the
occasion of his return from Germany,
which will be next Tuesday. Father
Carroll was at the Carlsbad baths for
about six weeks. a longer time han he
anticipated, but he has probably sailed
for home by this time, as he will be pres
emit en- the occasion of the opening of the
garden party. which takes place on the
evening of June l. The event will be
given for four days. and win be held in
Bramhall Park, opposite the church. Fa-
Their Talon, who is in charge OF the af-
fair, has been busy making all the neces-
sary arrangements. He is assisted by q
committee from the Catholic Club and the
ladies of the Benevolent Legion.
Father Carroll will most undoubtedly
arrive home in the evening, and he will
be given a GRAND ovation by his parish
toner's at the park. The last heard from
him was about two weeks ago.. He was
improving greatly in health and the rheu-
matism from which he had been suffering
for a long time past had almost left him.
Father Carroll was forced to visit the
baths at Carlsbad once before, but he is
of the opinion thai he win be entirely
cured of his rheumatism by the time he
arrives home. His parishioners are anx-
iously awaiting him and are determined
to give him a grand reception on his ar

Harrison A. G. Boxing Bouts.

The Hanover Athletic Club is enjoying
a boxing boom at present, while the other
promoters in the county, by reason of
Judge Lippincott's order, are forced to re-
main idle. Some time ago the Harrison
Club ran off a show and the principals.
after the bouts were over, were arrested
to make a test case. The evidence was
introduced, but the Judge declared it not
sufficient to prove the law had been VIC
lated. and the club resumed with a lively
series OF bouts Monday evening. The at
traction was a fifteen round encounter
between Denny Ward of Newar and Kid
Murphy OF the West. Chuck Commons
was referee, and after the pugilists had
slugged each other for the full number of
rounds declared his inability to pick the
winner and ordered an extra round, in
which Murphy gained the decision.
Charles Holcomb and Charles Parker,
colored, fought three rounds, the latter
throwing up the sponge. The fight be-
tween McGuigan and Mike Morse did NOT
come off, the latter failing to appear.
