Mcfarland Declares Mike Gibbons Will Not

(By Vincent Treanor.)

New York, Sept. 4-''Nobody is ever going to give me a beating" That statement coming from Packey Me Farland sounds egotistica1. But to the writer, who knows Packey very we'll, it was anything but an attempt on the fighters part to praise his own ability Packey was sitting in 8 rocker on the porch of the Hotel Shelbourne at Brighton. He had 8 far away look in his eyes and it was evident that thoughts were crowding each other in his brain. If the truth were known, the 1.-the and agile figure of Mike Gib- bons was blocking Packey's view of

Indeed the dispatch from Petrograd asserts that Russian experts declare that the further defense of Warsaw is use less It is further stated that in re tiring from the city the Russians will take all that they can that is of value.

Juneau Empire: There was '5 cent beer in Juneau today-almost.
 As suddenly as the price-cuttins became effective, it ended
 The beer is still at ten cents in the barrooms where the dime has been the standard price of a glass of the foaming beverage, while in the high brow places the l2 cent rate still prevails.
 "Bill' Scribner, known among the patrons of the "Louyre' as Tim Sullivan Bill" by reason of his an nual Christmas feast to the hungry, started to reduce the price of beer from ten to five cents fagon Straight-away the consumers of the amber fluid held impromptu parties, to rejoice at their good fortune. "Yo-Ho,' they chortled, twenty bum pers for twenty jitneys--we ARE in clover"
 But their joys were short-liyed Members of the liquor dealers fra ternity decided they could not con scientiously endorse a cut in the price of lager And a meeting was held And Mr Scribner was not in vited to the meeting. And after due consideration. MT. Scribner's plan was oVerruled.
 And so, in the course of events. Mr Scribner called off the sign writer from the fancy figure ''5'' which was about to be emblaZoned on the broad windows of the Louvre And beer is ten cents a glass today

FATHER OF THE FOURTU
Brumbaush Says Its Sire Was John
Adams.
rom the Philadelphia Ledger

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
Governor Brumbaugh, who iu>arl-
ably describes himself as & school
teacher, says John Adams was re~pon-
sible for Our noisy Fourth of July II
was all due to a letter written by
Adams from Philadelphia to his wife.
But that letter advocating noise was
written before the dawn of the first
Fourth Of July. 1t was penned by
Adams in Philadelphia on July s, LIS
the day before the Declaration y
Independencewas adopted.
This "ColusSus of Independence as
Jefferson called him in his old age,
considered that July 2, 1776. the day
the famous Richard Henry Lee re&o-
luton for independence passed the
Continental Congress, was the great
day of days.
So on the morrow of that event
when he had delivered, as he himself
said 40 years later, the only speech he
| wished he could remember, Mr. Adams
wrote his wife as follows on July
about how July 2 should be oelt-
brated:
"It ought to be solemnized With
pomp and parade. with shows. games
sports, guns, bells, bonfres. and lIu'
limitations from one end of this contl'
nent to the other from this tme TER
| ward forever more
And the very next day after J"hn
| Adams wrote that to his wife came ne
Fourth Of July. which has no"
dwarfed all others. But ADAMS
thought that the day on which On
greSs declared the country houid -
free and independent was 81 moro
account than the day which came later
when the reason for declaring fha} -
dependence was adopted.
In later years Adams joined yer
body else in celebrating the FohT1n ~

recommended to his wife the dtt r.
