The Deep Run Hunt, OF the Country
Club OF Virginia, met Saturday after
noon for their usual weekend run.
The weather conditions OF this sea-

Impossible for the horses to make any
Roadway
Saturday afternoon at almost every
jump the horses mired up to their
ankles, and through the fields a slow
canter was the best that could be
done. Although the going has been SO
bad and take-offs worse than ever be :
fore. the NJ. +. II. has Kept up the
standard of high, difficult jumps and

Every rider was in at the finish. and

The meet was at the vladuct on

White. on Rob Roy. amazed every one
riding, when his true hunter, although
sinking deep into the mire. led the
field nj fast pace, and at the check
seemed apparently as fresh as when
the hunt started.
No one ever riCes with the doctor
that they don't look at him with great
admiration, for ii is truly al inspiring

Both Scrappers Confident About the
Outcome Of Bout at Madison

CONDITION REPORTED PERFECT
Many Fans Believe That the Cham
pion Lacks Form and Is Slipping.
Little Prospect of Knockout.
Likely to BE Fast Match.

NEW YORK, February Freddie
Welsh. the lightweight champion of
the world. In spite of the fact that
he has been more or less defeated in
no-decision contests, aud Young" Shu-
grue. the Jersey City lad. will box ten
rounds at Madison Square Garden on
Tuesday night Interest runs high in
tho match, for there are many who be-
iieve that opportunity is reckoning
Shugrue on TO the championship. They
declare that while the Jersey lad has
been booming along. the champion has
gone back since he defeated Willie
Richie for the title in London last
summer.
IF either be decisively whipped. 1t
Will not be because of lack OF condi-
tion. A boxing enthusiast who has just
returned from the training quarters of
Shugrue up In Waterbury decla res that
he was never better. on Saturday he
weighed l36 pounds, and was boxing
like streak. lie mauled Robby
Moore and Young Drummie to n fare
ye-well and at the end was not tho
least bit tired. Although naturally a
reticent sort OF a chap. Shusrue ven-
tured the prediction that he would win.
Both Display Confidence.
II confidence is the watchword at
Shugrue's camp, the same may be said
OF Welsh. The Briton Is hard at work
at his camp in Occanport, and Is pre-
pared for the fight Of his life, He is
just little bit bitter against Shugrua
for few OF the remarks with which
the latter Is credited Welsh particu-
larly resents the fact that Shugrue
has offered to bet him $1,000 on tile
result OF q twenty round bout. Freddie
declares that he Will make his margin
OF victory so wide in this coming match
that Shugrue will have no desire to
mingle with him In long battle,
The last time the pair met Shugrue
just cantered home. Welsh ut tho time
said he was stale and overworke ed.
Then he fought Willie Beecher, and
won handily on points. but failed to do
as we'll as he should have, for all that
The bout was not OF championship
class. Frcddie's last start was against
Johnny Gritiiths. of Akron. and tina
Ohio press was almost unanimous In
declaring that Grifiiths Won Pollock
told somewhat different story when
he came back to this city.
The opinion prevails. however that
Freddie Is slipping, and that only his
! wonderful skill as n defensive fighter
Keeps him In the ring. Time and again
| Welsh will slip n punch, or take It on
! the shoulder, when the crowd believes
that he is hard hit Just as long as
he retains the ability to avoid punish
ment and continues to fight these short
decisionless contests there need be little
FEAR OF his being knocked out.
| There is especially little fear OF Sbu
grue knocking him out The Jersey
| lad is fast as a streak, but he lacks
! torce to his punch A fast, clever bout
! Is In prospect.

three sites. one In Harrison, another on
