MARTIN SHERIDAN.
Tho Worlds Greatest Athlete is a
Mayo Man.

The greatest all-around athlete
Martin Sheridan, was born in County
Mayo, Ireland, country that has pro-
duced more famous athletes than any
other place on the globe. He came
to the United States at an early age.
and entering upon his athletic career
has won all his victories under the
banner of the Irish American Athletic
club. which organization contains more
worlds champions than any other club
in the world. BY competent judges,
Sheridan is pronounced the greatest
all-round athlete the world has ever
seen.
In what are known as field and
track sports, however, Sheridan strikes
an average ah3ve every other athlete
The Irish standard., 1910-05-21

Stunning, with a liberal supply of the
saving grace of Irish humor. I'm
lucky" is the nearest approach to an
sgotistical expression that anybody
has ever been able to get out of this
soft-spoken giant in response to the
most extravagant praise for his ex-
ploits.
That Sheridan has not yet reached
the zenith of his powers and is con-
stantly developing in various direc-
lions is attested by the fact that ONLY
few months ago he invaded a new
athletic field and forthwith captured
the worlds record. The new accom-
pllshment is in hurting the 42-pound
stone. Sheridan threw the weight 81
feet and 1a inch, or fully four inches
farther than attained in the previous
world record established some half
dozen years ago. Sheridans newest
RECORD of 142 feet 1917 inches for the
discus throw, whereby he broke his
best previous record by more than two
feet, was also made late in the autumn
of 1909.

A Clare Centenarian.

The Ennis correspondent of the
Dublin Weekly Freeman writes as fol-
lows of the death of Paddy Blake of
Corofin:
A rare and we'll authenticated case
of extreme old age, in the person of
one Paddy Blake, was recently to be
seen in the Corofin Union hospital.
Paddy was a laborer, but did not work
regularly, spending most of his time
rowing about from one house to an
other. He was born at Ballygreen,
parish of Kilnascolagh, County Glare,
some 119 years ago, on st. PArick's
day. His grandfather was Peter1Blake
who fought at the siege of Limericl:
in 1891 and is said to have attained
the great age of 100 years.
Paddy liven when lad with his
uncle, another Peter Blake, at Ing, in
the parish of Kilinaleery. He mar
ried twice, and migrated to Corofin
about the year 1861. A lady of sreat
intelligence and genealogical knowl-
edge of the Tradaree districts, w,.c
knew Paddy since she was a child
has put his great age beyond all doubt
In evidence of it, there is the faci

Timothy O'Donoghue; the former was
married on August Is, 1880. 80 years
ago, being then 80 years of 'age He
had brother two years older, and a
sister nine years older. This lady

years, and she and Paddy were bap-
tized on the same day at the house Of
Mr. ODonoghue, by the Rev. James
'Shaughnessy, afterwards Catholic
! bishop of Killaloe. Paddy had a clear
recollection of events that happened u
hundred years ago, and remembered
most of the scholars who attended Ire
old Latin school held by Bishop
'Shaughnessy at Newmarket n-Fer-
gus He went to see Daniel O'Connell
when passing through Bunratty Pike,
on his way to Ennis, to the great elec-
ton Of 1928, and remembered the red
flag hoisted on Bunratty Castle by Mr..
Tom Studdert, who refused to let the
liberator pass until he had paid the
/ pike money" or toll. It was after
this incident, regarded as. an insult
| to the liberator, that the buyers re-
fused to attend the old fair at .Bun-
ratty, which consequently ceased to
exist. Paddy used to admit he was 30
years old at that time, but as he never
liked to be considered ."old," he was
probably some years older than he adj
mitted. DR.. James O'Shaughnessy,
above referred to, was consecrated
coadjutor bishop of Killaloe in 1898,
and succeeded as bishop in 1907, OH
the death of DR.. Michael Peter Mac
Mahon, who was a grand-uncle of
Marshal MacMahon, Duke of Magenta.
and president of the French republic.
Paddy Blake entered the Corofin
hospital in September 1908, and died
there on March IL, 1910. He was not
ed for his great appetite and his in
veterate love Of .tobacco.

London, Sept. 16.-Witnesses for
the Crown today administered an
other blow to the crumbllng evil
dence against Dr. Hawley II. Grip
pen, the American dentist, when
they admitted that they could not
determine the sex of the mangled
body found in the basement of the
Crippens' Islington home.
The witnesses were DR.. w. w.
Wilcox and Dr. B. H. Spilibury, ex-
perts employed by the government.
DR.. Wilcox examined parts of the
body found in the Crlppen home for
traces of poison and discovered indi.
cations of hyoscin which he said
caused death.
Questioned today as to the sex of
the body, DR.. Wilcox said he bS-
lieved it was probably female"
Answering the questions of Ar
thur Newton, representing the de-
fense, he admitted that he could nor
tell definitely.
Dr. Spilibury also said that he
was unable to determine the sex
definitely. He said he had made
microscopic examination of the parts
of the body found but that nothing
in the structure of the tissues ex-
amined indicated sex.
During the questioning of the ex-
perts on this point DR.. Crippen and
Mile. Ethel Leneve, who sat togeth-
er in the prisoners dock, exchanged
glances and a shadow of a smile
crossed the doctors face when the
witnesses admitted that they could
not say whether the body found was
that of a man or O woman.
Though the prisoners were al
lowed TO sit together today, the
court ordered again that they should
not converse with each other. This
was removed a few days
ago and the fact that it has again
been ordered caused belief that the
crown feels that its case is failing,
and will make another effort to get
the typist to testify against the man
with whom she fed to America.
Persons who knew her believed
that Mrs. Crippen died through hy-
Dscin poisoning" testified DR.. Will
cox. "The dose, evidences of which
we're discovered in the parts of the
body found in the Crippen home,
while somewhat more than that re-
luired to bring about fatal results.
