OLD LONDON INNS.
Some That Are Famous Because of
Special Dish.

Special Dish.
Though various restaurants in New
York, Washington, New Orleans or
San Francisco are famous for certain
dishes, yet this is generally the result
Of accident rather than design that
one article upon the menu should be
pre-eminently successful and popular.
The day is past when this one dish
could make the reputation of the
place.
In London, however, this is not the
case, though it must be confessed that
there are not now as many inns as
formerly which have become famous
by reason of the popularity of one
dish In times gone by every London
inn of any pretensions at all had its
special dish wherein it prided itself
and to partake of which patrons tray
eled many miles.
Eel pies were once the great feature
of breakfast served at the old Sluice
House, near Finsburg park The nee
essary quantity of fish was regularly
dredged up from the stream which ran
under the windows of the inn. The
pies are still to be had, but the cells
are procured from a nearby fish mar
ket.
Simpsons, in the Strand, is noted for
its fish dinners. This place was once
immensely popular, and even today
there is certain following who swear
by its repasts. For a certain sum the
guest eats as much of a variety of fish
as he cares to.
Another inn boasts Of a special dish
in the shape of SouthdoWn mutton.
This is wheeled up to the table in or
der that each individual may select
the particular cut to which he is par
tiaI. The mutton is kept warm by
means of water heated by lamp.

THE RIVER NILE.
Egypt Would Be Wilderness but For
This Wonderful Stream.

GSyPI "ONIG DC q "IiCSFuSSS SA@ 9 vi
This Wonderful Stream.
The Nile is probably the most won
derful river in the world, 1t has made
Egypt possible by turning an arid
wilderness into the richest land in the
world. 1t has provided at the same
time an admirable commercial high
way and made easy the transportation
of building materials. The ancient
Egyptians were thus enabled to utilize
the granite of Assuan for the splen-
did structures of the hundred gated
Thebes and of Memphis and even for
those on Tanis, on the Mediterranean
coast.
At time when the people Of the
British isles were clad in skins of wild
beasts and offered human sacrifices
upon the stone affairs of the Druids
Egypt was the center of a rich and
refined civilization. Most of the de-
velopment of Egypt was due to the
Nile, which not only Watered and fer
tilted the soil annually, but was and
is one of the best natural highways in
the world.
From the beginning of winter to the
end of spring-that is, while the Nile
is navigable-the- north wind blows
steadily up the stream with sufficient
force to drive sailing boats against the
current at a fair pace, while, on the
other hand, the current is strong
enough to carry a boat without sails
down against the wind except when it
blows gale. That is why the ancient
Egyptians did not need steam power
nor electric motors for the immense
commerce that covered the Nile nor
for barges carrying building materials
for hundreds of miles.-New YORK;
Herald.

the trick. This belief is
borne out in a measure by
the manner in which the
big fellow is using his right
in his jousts with Choynski
and Corbett. Both in the
bag work and at the gloves
he is making his hardest
drives with the crooked arm
and the power he throws
into them is surprising. His
game with his sparring
mates is to work in as close
ly as he can with his left
beam stuck out and then to
crash in a short right, trav-
cling about six inches, and
landing beneath the heart.
Some have asked: Can JEFF
fries force Johnson ii life his left
club from the regia nof his stom-
ach?" and the answer invariably
has been that he can force John
son to do almost anything after
fe wrounds in which the negro's
hardest blows have failed to stop
Jeffries. Practically all of JEFF
fries trainers believe that a
right will bring victory.
So far as training goes, all that
Jeffries has to do until he starts
for San Francisco is to kid himself
along.

be right now" declared Roger Cor
nell, famous judge of condition.
play until the day of the fight is
all that is necessary. His condi-
ton is perfect; his wind is right;
his eye is good and his tempera-
ment, which counts for much more
than the layman figures, Is great.
Some skeptics still harp on the
question: Can he stand a stom-
ach wallop?' Yes, he can, but he
is not going to be hit in the stom-
ach. Don't you see Armstrong,
Corbett and Choynski trying to
land there? And have you seen
them get in with one? There is
no question about anything, In my
Judgment. If Jeffries in his pres
ent shape cannot whip Johnson,
then he never saw the day that he
could whip the negro, and by that
l do not concede that the black
man has a chance to win
