COULDN'T STAND FOR DEFEAT
According to London Newspaper, Col ored Opponent of Irishman Had
 Little Chance.

A brawny son of Erin was acting as time keeper in rough-and-ready fight between his mate and negro in South America. In the course of the fight a well-planted blow sent the Irishman earthwards.
 "One!" cried the time keeper, in a tense voice, watch in hand.
 "Two!" he murmured hoarsely. Pat, ye fool, git up! There's only eight sec onds left!"
 The inert mass never moved.
 "Three!" shouted the time keeper desperately. Think of yer old mother, Pat! Whats it she'd be saying to ye, Bate the nigger!'"
 Slowly he called up to eight, buck ing up his mate with patriotic ejacula tions between each long second. When eight had been called Pat slowly stag gered to his feet, and by a mighty lunge succeeded in knocking down his black opponent.
 Desperately fearing lest he should revive in time, the time keeper set of at top speed:
 "One, two, three. four, five, ant five's ten! Ye.re out, ye black villain! London Tid-Bits. \

 The couple occupied separate beds in the same room, and when the wife died her side of the room was screened off and the body removed while friends kept the husband busy in conversa- tion. He died without knowledge of his wife's death. For years they had made their home with Dr.. John J. Fralinger of 1929 South Second street.

LANDMARKS GOING
Ancient Features of London Are \ Fast Disappearing.
old Buildings Eagerly Sought by American Tourists Are Being Re-
 ' placed by New and More Modern Structures.

London.-Still more ancient land. marks, dear to Londoners and inter- esting to tourists, are to disappear. A few weeks ago it was stated that as London had suffered a year ago because so little was done to attract American tourists to London during the season, an effort was to be made to keep them longer during the forth coming season, and this is the way it Is being done.
 What, with the closing of all places of interest owing to the growing dan ger of suffragette outrages and the demolishing of old buildings, there will soon be hardly anything in London worth seeing by tourists.
 Great indignation has been aroused by the news that the Old Ship Inn, which stands on the Mall, near Ham mersmith Bridge, is to be destroyed.
 This is one of the best-known land marks on the famous course between Putney and Mortlake, but the licens- ing magistrates have ordered the ex- tinction of the license on the ground of redundancy.
 The original Old Ship was built on the site of the present building near Iy. 300 years ago. Part of the old structure still remains, in the form of a very fine portico of red brick. This is subject of great interest to antiquarians, for it is one of the old est examples of brickwork in the neighborhood.
 During the latter half of the last century there jutted out from the frontage of the house the original Hammersmith pier, which was served by the penny steamboats" that piled up and down the river. A private ter race leads from the house to the wa ter's edge, and from this a magnificent view of the inter-university boat race can be obtained.
 On a fine morning the outlook is charming. Old Chiswick church stands In the foreground, while in the dis tance are the hills of Richmond.
 If this building" said the landlord of the Old Ship, 'is demolished, it will no doubt be replaced by factory or some other eyesore. This is very dangerous part of the river, and no fewer than 20. lives have been saved from my terrace during the last three
