VILLA AND WILDE
skcpticism in New York Sporting Cir eles Over Prospect of O'Rourke Putting on Bout.

New York, March G, (By Associat- ed Press) )-There was some skepti- cism in sporting circles today over the prospect of Jimmy Wilde leaving England 10 come to this country to defend his worlds nyweight title against Rancho Villa, who lost the American championship to Frankie Genaro last week, While there are some doubts expressed over the sue cess of Promoter Tom O'Rourke, who announced that he had received a cable from Wilde accepting terms for Il bout on June 16, there was general hope that he would come.
 Negotiations for his return here have been under way since last Octo- ber when Tex Rickard offered him terms to meet Villa, who had just won the American championship from Johnny Buff, but an agreement was not reached.
 Although the international boxing union, an organization believed to be expiring, deprived Wilde of his title last month, O'Rourke kept up ne- gotiations and claimed to have Wilde's assent to meet the winner of the bout. At one time both and Q'Rourke declared they had signed him.
 It is known, however, that Wilde has been growing away from his pro-

CHAPTER IL

IN a morning, a week after this
collapse Of festal hopes, Mrs.
- Adams and her daughter were
concluding a three days disturbance,
the spring house-cIeaning post
poned until now by Adams long i'll
ness-and Alice, on her knees b.
fore chest Of drawers, in her moth
er's room, paused thoughtfully after
busting e packet of letters wrapped in
worn muslin. She called to her
mother, who was scrubbing the floor
of the hallway just beyond the open
door.
These old letters you had III the
bottom drawer, weren't they GONE
papa wrote you before you We're
married?"
Mrs. Adams laughed and said: Yes
Just put EN- back where they were
or else up in the attic-anywhere you
want to-
do you mind If I read one, mama
Mrs. Adams laughed again. "Oh. ]
guess you can if you want to. I eX
pect they're pretty funny
Alice laughed in response, and
chose the topmost letter Of the
packet. MY dear. beautiful girl" it
began: and she stared at these sin
gular words. They gave her a shock
Ike that caused by overhearing some
bewildering improperly; and, having
read them over to herself several
times. she went on to experience
other shocks.
Ny dear Beautiful Girl:
This time yesterday I had a
mighty bad case of blues because I
bad not had a word from you in two
whole long days and when do not
rear from you every day things look
mighty down in the mouth to me.
Now It is all so different because
your letter has arrived and besides I
have got a piece Of news I believe
you will think as fine as 1 do. Darl-
ing. you will be surprised, so get
ready to hear about a big effect on
our future. It is this way. I had
sort Of a suspicion the head of the
firm kind Of took a fancy TO me from
the first when I went there, and liked

up in the house. Just got to hope
he'll learn better, I suppose"
"Of course he didn't want to go to
the Palmers," Alice explained, toll
erantly-"and as mamma and 1 made
him take me, and he thought that was
pretty selfish in me, why, he felt he
had right to amuse himself any way
he could. OF course it was awful that

Nor she cried. IT had no bust
ness to make such a fuss just because
a lot of idiots didn't break their necks
to get dances with me and because
got mortified about Walter-Walter
was pretty terrible"
"Oh, me, my!" Adams lamented.
Il guess that's something we just
have to leave work out itself. What
you going to do with a boy 10 or 81
years old that makes his own living?

Yes, it was awful" Adams agreed.
Just awful. Oh, me, N.Y.
But Alice recovered herself at once,
and showed him a cheerful face.
well, just a few years from now L
probably won't even remember it! I
believe hardly anything amounts TO
as much as we think it does at the
time"

At this, her father abruptly gave
Utterance to a feeble cackling OF
laughter; and when Alice, surprised
and a little offended. pressed him for
his reason, he tried to evade, saying.
Nothing, dearie. I just thought of
something" But she persisted until
he had to explain.
