FODDER FOR
FIGHT FANS

That Packy Mcfarland, the Chicago
stock yards champion. can more than
hold his own against any man in the
lightweight division If he himself can
ever make the limit again. is the con-
fident statement today of New York
sporting writer's who saw his bout
there last night with Kid Burns.
Packy had the better of every round.
Burns showed considerable rugged
strength and kept boring in. closing
up one Of Paokys eyes.
Mcfarland weighed in at 136 pounds.
according TO the statement made by
officials but looked heavier. AT that
he was drawn and there was doubt
in the minds Of fight fans If he could
take on and more weight and be able
Il meet a fighter like Champion Ad
Wolgast. Mcfarland showed he lack
ed a knockout punch, for a dozen
times he had openings where a strong
er man could have disposed Of his
opponent.
No bout In New York since the Abe
Attell-Mat Wells go Is expected to
show so much scientific fighting as the
one between Eddie O'Keefe, Of Phila-
delphia, and Johnny Dundee. of New
York, who meet at the National Sport
ing Club tomorrow night.
Mike Gibbons, the st. Paul welter-
weight, is a slight favorite for his
fight tonight with Mike Young
eastman, whom he meets at the New
York Empire A. c., in ten-round
bout. Both boys have agreed to make
las pounds at 3 o'clock. which is three
pounds over the welter line.

MYSTERY OF THE
STOLEN PAPERS
Explanation of a Queer Incl
dent Aboard a Warship.

The real names of those who figure
in this story are necessarily concealed.
In the summer of 1893 we were cruls-
ing in Cuban waters. Our ship was a
small wooden gunboat brought tempo
rarily into the navy.
One morning the commanding Off
GERS orderly came around among the
officers with an order for them to re-
port In the captains cabin. AS soon
as we arrived we saw that something
of Importance was to be communl-
Gated.
Gentlemen said the captain, when
/ came down here at 2 o'clock this
morning from the bridge before enter
ing my room / heard some one within.
The door was slightly ajar, and saw
a man rifiing my desk. / waited till
he came out, and without making my
presence known TO him / entered, to
find package of papers missing. The
man who committed the theft is one
of your number"
Four of us looked at one another as
If a hand grenade had been dropped
on the deck above. The fifth, Ensign
Archie Reeves. daredevil young fell
low whom we all loved. looked at none
of us. Nevertheless his face wore the
same imperturbable expression we had
all seen on 1t In action.
When the captain had spoken he dis
missed us--not q word about prefer
ring charges against the culprIt, not
word about a dlscontiuuance of his
duties, nothing but the bare facts.
We were all sure that Reeves was the
man referred to, yet such was his
bearing, repellent of any mention of
the accusation, that none of us breach
ed the subject to him. When we saw
that no explanation was Forthcoming,
no move made toward demanding an
investigation, all except myself felt IL
incumbent upon them to cut him.
One night when we were lowering !
near an undefended part of the Cuban
coast Reeves came to me and request, |
ed that l should act for him in an af. !
fair of honor. consented, and he sent /
me to Surgeon Irwin, who informed me /
that he represented the captain. / ask |
ed him what the affair was about, but I
he did not know. No one knew ex
cept the two principals. The surgeon
handed me paper signed by the cap
tain, 1t was a waiver of his rank be
tween the hours of 4 and @ on the fol
lowing morning.
Shortly before dawn principals and
seconds took the captains dinghy and
pulled to the shore. Anchoring the
dinghy to the beach, we went back OF
the dunes, measured off the ground and

Almost as gratifying as is the an
nouncement that the anthracite Goa
miners of the Pennsylvania region have
voted to resume their work after seven
weeks strike is the great majority in
favor of that resumption of work, the
vote being 1923 to "a. Such prepon-
derance of sentiment in favor of the set.
Element of the strike indicates that the
anthracite miners of the region are in
a satisfied frame of mind over the re-
suits of the negotiations which were
brought to conclusion by their sub-com-
mittee in conjunction with the sub-eom-
mittee of the operators, and that there
is little ranking of feeling on their
part. 1t is, therefore, pleasing to the
general public.

placed our men, and when all was
ready the surgeon gave the word. The
captain received a bullet in the arm
Irwin asked him if he was satisfied
and he said he was. / asked Reeves II
he was satisfied, and he also assented

but they did not. The surgeon band.
aged the wound. The captain wore
his coat, as usual, and we rowed back
to the ship without any one on board
knowing the purpose for which we had
gone. At the Juniors mess when we
assembled for breakfast the surgeon
said:
Gentlemen, am authorized by the
captain to announce that he and Mr.
Reeves have had a meeting ashore this
morning The captain received fest
wound In the arm. He requests that
you keep the matter a secret from the
men"
"WellT" The word was not spoken
1T was looked by every man present
Il have nothing more to communi
cate"
It was plain that the matter Of the
theft as well as the meeting was Of a
personal nature At any rate, all now
felt that they might recognize Reeves.
Though he had not cleared himself OF
the charge, he had resented the accuse
ton. The affair gave those of US who
were not the principals something to
talk about during the duh hours OF
blockading
After this we watched both the cap
tain and Reeves in their intercourse
with each other 10 discover theiI
status, 1t was soon plain that there
was no intercourse at all, except an
official one. The captain was rather
more deferential to Reeves than to
others in giving an order. but while |
he would chat Familiarity with us be
would never do so with Reeves. As
for Archie. we all thought that there
was an undercurrent Of contempt for
the captain which he was trying ia I
conceal. The result Of many confer
ences we had on the subject was that
the captain had made a mistake in ac'
cusing him, as he had virtually done
of theft and that Reeves had forced
him to give him satisfaction to do wha. I
was possible 10 right the matter.
When the blockade was raised we
were ordered north. Reaching port,
Archie and | went ashore together As
we neared the pier l noticed young
and extremely pretty woman who was
evidently awaiting us.
you will see the explanation of
secret" said Reeves. BE sGre you
keep it,"
AS soon as we reached the pier the
lady came forward and greeted Reeves
warmly and somewhat anxiousiy. He
introduced me, calling her Mrs" in.
stead of Miss" which surprised me.
Then, taking package from his peck
ct, he handed It to her.
II promised you that / would secure
your letters. Here they are"
1t was plain that the lady had been
ndisereet and that the captain, who
was madly In love with her had acted,
% say the least. unwisely.

JINGLES AND JESTS
Spring in an Attic.

Treasured in the old cedar chest,
Faint perfumes hung about it,
With India shawl and satin vest,
In paper wrapped we found it,
The roses pallid turned from pink,
The ribbons frail and yellow,
A bit of gauze, of lace, link
Ground fine and mellow.
Oh relics of bygone day,
A vintage past, forgotten,
When girls wore bonnets made this way
And danced in gowns of cotton,
Why were you left to linger here,
To pine alone in tissue?
Did she, perhaps, decide you queer
And never miss your
Where is she now. that winsome girl
Who one glad spring time wore you!
Did she set handles head a-whirl
And hearts a-rapture DER you2
And was the face beneath the brim
Proud, pouting, shy, or simpler
Tell us. 0 rosebuds pinkly dim,
Was there dimple?
Go back, o hat Of other days,
To shelter where we found you,
Safe from our coldly modern gaze,
Your spicy scents around you.
For with some gallant, ardent swain,
When midnight chimes emphatic,
Your sweet old ghost may come again
To walk the attic.

1t is a rather unfortunate time, just
before the Ohio primaries, for the second
Lorimer report to be presented to the
Senate, inasmuch as President Taft's
name has been associated with that of
the Illinois senator by the presidents
opponents However, Taft has made it
quite clear that he has had little, or
nothing, to do with Senator Lorimer, so
that the report by the majority of the
Senate committee will have no effect
