Within the walls of Limerick were the flower of the Jacob fte cause, and the garrison made a gallant resistance to Williams Dutch commander, Ginokel, who invested the town. After several terrible battles the Irish troops under Gen. Sarsfeld were forced to surrender, but they marched out of the town with all the honors of war. They were given the choice of entering the service of the English king or embarking for France, and the majority chose the latter a1- ternattve.

BIRTHDAY OF THREE
 GREAT LITTLE
 CHAMPION FIGHTERS

Sunday will mark the birthday Of three great little champion boxers of as many different countries-Young Corbett; former featherweight cham pion of the world; Owen Moran, form CT featherwedght champion of Great Britain, and George PapHns the light weight champion of France. Young Corbett, whose real name is William H. Rothwell, was born in Denver Oct. 4. 1880; Moran made his mundane de- but in Birmingham. England. Oct. 4. 1884, and Papin arrived in Paris Oct. 4. 1887.
 Young Corbett started fighting in 1897. but he was still almost unknown outside of Colorado when he was matched to fight Terrible Terry Mc- Govern at Hartford, Conn, in 1901. Nobody expected the Denverite to stand chance against the terrible one, but right from the gong Corbett started to mix things and in the second chapter he sent Terry to the floor. For the first time in his life Terry was knocked cold. and Corbett became fea- therweight champion. In 1908 he put Terry away again in eleven rounds. The Denver lad then entered the light weight division. but he had shot his bolt, and he was defeated by Jimmy Britt and Eddie Han1on, and knocked out by Battling Nelson, Aurelio Her rera, Dick Hyland and others. Four years ago this month he was knocked out by Willie Beecher, and retired from the ring, and has since acted as referee at New York clubs and boxing instructor in Montreal
 Owen Moran's defeat by Young .Shugrue in New York last. January, when he quit in the seventh round, was a. sad showing for the boy who was once a stellar performer" in the ring. Moran attained prominence in 1907 and 1903, when he met Califor4 nia's best boxers, knocking out Frank ie Neil in the sixteenth round. defeat ing Eddie Hanlon, and fighting two long draws with Abe Attel1. Later he defeated Matty Baldwin, Tommy NIur- phy. Battling Nelson and other good American boxers, but In 1911 he was put away by Ad Wolgast in the thir- teenth round at San Francisco, and began to go back.
 ' Georges Pain. who fought his way to the top of the French lightweight heap, was never a Carpentier, but he is a fairly clever boxer. He was de- feated last years by Frank MandoIe and Charlie Thomas, but whipped Joe HyIand and Otto KohIer, the Ohio German-American boxer, as well as number of Frenchmen.

Hebrews to Celebrate the
 Feast of Tabernacles

Hebrews the world over are today completing preparations for the an nua1 observance of the Feast of Tab ernacles, also called Succoth and the Feast of Booths. This is the har- vest festival of the ancient Jews, and Its celebration occupies the period front he fifteenth to the twenty third of the month Tisri, beginning tomorrow evening and extending to October 13th Orthodox Jews ob-s prayers and eating their meals in tenn porary booths decorated with flow CTS, fruits and tvfgs. These booths symbolize the tents in which the Isz raentes dwelt during their forty years of wandering in the wilder ness. The booths are erected in syn agogues, in front and back yards, and on the roofs of tenement buildings. In, these temporary dwellings the faithful gather as did the farmers of ancient Palestine after the weari- some harvesting. While the char acter of the Succoth festival is agr1- cultural. it has latter gained a na- tiona.1istic significance.
 The interior of most of these booths are decorated with family and religious pictures, while gar1ands of leaves and blossoms are suspended from the corners The orthodox say their morning prayers with the esrog, a fine specimen or lime. in one hand, and the Iulay, a branch of palm ana myrtle, in the other hand The esross are imported in large quanti- ties from Italy. but this year, owing to the war, the supply is very small
 The day following Succoth is called Simchath Torah, or the Feast of the Law, and it will come this year on October 18th, as Succoth continues to October 12th, when the Feast of the Eighth Day is celebrated Sim chath Torah is a, home and synagogue festival, and marks the completion Of the annual cycle Of readings from the Scriptures The scrolls of the law, the old testament written on parchment, arc ornamented with gold and silver trimmings, covered with velvet, and carried about the syna- gogue aisles in triumph, this custom giving the festival its name .of Feast of Ee5otcang with the Lak On the same day the first chapter of Genesis is also read. and the annual cycle Of Bible reading begins over again.

The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-10-03

The Kekionga team of Fort Wayne played no legal game after July, and their games were thrown out; the Eckfords did not begin to play in the race until August, and their games, too, were not counted. The Atla.ntics of Brooklyn only played in 21 games of which they lost 8, while the Eek lords played 60, of which they won S7.
 In the next story I will tell you of the entrance of two Connecticut teams. viz-. Manchester and Hart ford. and also will append the rec ords of 1872 and 1878. You will mo-. tee in the appended records of 1875 the entrance of New Haven to the Na- tiona1 league. New Haven only lasted one year, while Hartford stuck it out for four seasons. After that will come the advent of the National league. which occurred in the spring of 1878.

HEAVY LOSSES IN
BATTLE OF MONS
BY THE GERMANS

London. Sept. 1.-The Ostend cor
respondent of the Express quotes Leon
Hard, senator of Hainault. as testify
ing that the Germans killed their own
severely wounded on the battlefield,
only tending those who would soon re-
cover"
There are many signs, according to
the dispatch, that the Germans suffered
heavily at Mons. Returning remnants
of those who were in the fight spoke
bitterly of British courage. One force
of ESQ British, 1t is said, must have
accounted for thousands of Germans
All along their line of retreat they had
prepared a defense made with bags
fun of potash, found in a neighborng
factory. Through these were placed
MaXims and on top German helmets
The first time the Germans came up to
this seemingly friendly line the Max
inns spoke and soon no Germans We're
left.
Mons Is reported to have suffered
heavily and its whole neishborhood
was devastated.

While the whole world is
awaiting definite news from the
battle line. the French war
office contents itself with the
simple statement that as a re-
suit of the turning movement
of the German army, and in or
der not to accept battle under
unfavorable conditions, the
French troops again have re-
tired.
From the British capital no
word is forthcoming regarding
what are considered the most
momentous operations OF the
war.
While Berlin claims a Ger
man victory over the Russians
in East Prussia in the capture
of 10000 men, the Russians
claim an important victory over
the Austrians on the Galician r.
side, with $4,000 prisoners.
Another German aeroplane
has been dropping bombs into
Paris. and according to the
French official statement the
American ambassador has or
ganized a committee and has
sent protest against this
method of warfare to the gov
eminent at Washington.

German atrocities has been re-

setting forth some of the hap
penings in Belgium during the
