NOTED PUGILIST KNOCKED OUT
BY DEATH.

John L. Sullivan, one of the most
interesting figures of prize ring his
tory, died suddenly of heart disease
at his home at West Arlington,
Mass, Saturday. AS was his wish,
he died with his shoes on. Although
stricken with heart trouble three
weeks ago, he had quickly improved
and was in no sense an invalid. He
was about to leave his house to pay
a visit to Boston to see his old
friend, Captain James P. Sullivan.
of the Boston police department,
when he received his final knockout.
His friend and companion, Geo.
M. Bush, rushed to his side as the
old gladiator sank to the floor un-
conscious, and revived him with
cold water applications on the head.
John L." responded quickly to the
treatment, as in his palmy days in
the prize ring, struggled to his feet
and refused to take the decision of
Time. Reluctantly consented to have
a physician called, but after receiv-
ing medical treatment, announced
that he would have a bath and keep
his appointment. Even as he ex-
pressed his determination he be-
came unconscious and died appar-
entity without further pain.
The body was taken to the homo
OF his sister in Boston, where fun
eral services will be held Wednes-
day morning.

DON'T WORRY, BOOBIES! QUE
BOYS WILL COME.

In the Lower House of the Prus-
sian Diet at Berlin, DIR. Frand Meh-
ring, Independent socialist, made
the following inquiry:
'If Canada, with less that -
100000 Inhabitants, has been able
to throw quarter of million
soldiers into Europe, who were not
able to fly or swim, what grounds
has the finance minister for denying
to the United States, with 10000
900 inhabitants any military ca
pacity?"
Dr. Mehring proceeded to reprove
the Prussian finance minister, DIR.
Heitz, for such contempt, which he
declared was likely to bring heavy
penalties in its train, especially Ii
coupled with empty threats.
The minister, replying, admitted
that he was not able to prove his
statements concerning the American
army, but was still convinced that
it could not come over.
