between his mate and negro in South

well-planted blow sent the lrishman
earthwards.

"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! What's 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 n mighty
lunge succeeded in knocking down his
black opponent.
Desperately fearing lest he should
revive in time, the time keeper set OFF
at top speed:
"One, two, three, four five, and
tive's ten! Ye're out, ye black yillain!"
