Several guests from a number of differ

ter which the members adjourned to the
reception room, where lunch was served.
About fifty members, including the visit
ors, were present.
The gathering was entertained with a
number of well rendered selections by

teresting story connected with this boys
life. Although only fourteen years old, he
travels all over the country singing at
concerts or wherever he can make a "lit-
tie pocket money" as he terms it. The
boy is small for his age. He has a good
home on West Seventeenth street, New
York, but he prefers to be out around the
country. A short time ago Houlihan, with
several companions, started off for Pllila-
delphia by way of Hoboken, but the lads
parents telephoned to the police of that
city, who captured the boys as soon as
they reached Hoboken. Recorder McDon-
ough discharged them the next morning,
after giving them a severe lecture.
Houlihan has acquired the art of smok-
ing cigars and swearing like any man,
wears his hat on the back of his head,
and always goes around alone, seer
When asked why he did not stay at home
