thus far disappointed his friends and
followers by his ordinary perform
ances. He failed to beat records in the
worlds championships at Buffalo, al
though he won that event with jump
Of less than twenty-three feet.
The Irish champion Is lame, and it is
hardly possible that he will be able to
do any record jumping until he has
taken long rest to put his leg in shape
again. 1t is not known what caused
O'Connors lameness. Some persons
say his leg bothered him before he left
Ireland for this country. These as
cribe to the strain OF his many record
breaking performances bis present
poor condition. Others say that his
jumping when be first arrived in this
country was good enough to figure as
his best
