Tuesday was an IDEAL day, as well
for catching up with the long delayed
farm work as for going to the polls
to vote; but in spite of the fine wealth
et and predictions that the rural pre-
eincts would poll a light vote, the
vote over the country was up to the

PhilH and other sporting men backed
the Irishman heavily. with the result
that the odds favored 0laher. On the
morning of the fight rumors were pre-

Mccoy was going TO quit. and this sus-
picion of fakery Kept down the attend
ance. the receipts amounting to only
$4,000. although the men had been
promised a $4,000 purse. Just before
the bout started Naher was presented
with big floral horseshoe By his ad-
mirers. but il didn't bring luck TO the
Hibernian- The clever Hoosier had the
best of the argument from the first

the hands OF the Hoosier by getting

Less than two weeks later Mccoy
knocked out Joe ChOynski and these
victories greatly enhanced the Kids
