WILLARD
MAY BE
THROUGH
By II. c. HAMILTON

(united Press stan Cor~responoent.)
NEW YORK. July 1.-THE pacifist
heavyweight champion, Jess Willard,
probably is all through with the fight
game. Never a lover of the game which
gave him fame and his fortune. Willard
has purchased a circus, fired his man
ayers. and now. presumably is ready TO
call 1t off.
There Is nothing startling in a pre-
diction that Willard is through. He
could hardly a-ord to risk public CEN
sure through taking on some of the les
ser heavywelghts. and of the few men
available, there isn't a one who wouldn't
be able to- give King Jess the fight OF
his life. The action of the champion in
getting rid of Tom Jones and Jack Cur
ley is commendable in a sort Of way.
for it eliminates the syndicate which
put the worlds champion to work in a
circus instead of sending him out to
nght-which was expected of him by a
public grateful for Wizards success in
bringing back the worlds title to the
white race.
Willard has declared there isn't a man
of sufficient ability TO meet him. How
0kCAt At III TINS
succeeded in knocking out Sam Lang
ford-something no other man Cer
could do. Willard long ago adopted a
policy of no fights with the colored men
breaking the rule only once in order
to win the worlds title from Jack h
son. 1t is doubtful, just the same, If
his best days would have done him any
good in a bout with the Boston Tar
baby. regardless of the great difference
in their sizes.
If Willard yearns for a few more
thousand dollars and a chance to retire
gracefully from the fight game for all
time the chance is just begging for him.
Fred Fulton looms as his most formid-
able rival. Several promoters are eager
to stage the bout. The public would go
wild over a twenty-round go W
the pair. And there is no valid reason
for holding it off. Willard would con-
fer a. favor by agreeing to the fight.

Not What Was Wanted.

II have no patience with men who
fall In love with amusing girls and
grumble because they don't find
them soothing; it Is like buying dia-
monds and crying because you can't

What states gave the land compris-
Ing tire District of Columbia 10 the
United States as q site for the national
capital?
Maryland In I7SS, and Virginia In
1889, gave land comprising 100 square
miles. This was organized In 1790g1
as the District of Columbia and be-
am the seat of government in 1900.
Afterward the part coded by Virginia
was given back. not being needed The
present District of Columbia therefore
consists of sixty-four square miles, all
on the east bank OF the Potomac and
all coded by Maryland
What was the first newspaper In the
United States7 When was i published
and whore?
The first newspaper In the United
States was the Publick Occurrences, In
Boston. Il vas published IN 1890. 1t
was suppressed by the government Of
Massachusetts, for containing "renec-
lions Of a very high nature" The Bos-
ton Newsletter appeared in 1909.
Why have the business signs and
taO0fa i" 00CH
changed from Latin 20 Turkish letters?
What are Latin Ietters7
The change was ordered in Difference
to national and perhaps sectarian sen
timent. the Latin letters being relics
of foreign domination. Latin letters
are the capital letters of the Roman
alphabet which the ancient Romans
used exclusively and which are still
In common use for many purposes.
They are the capital letters OF the pres
ent English alphabet The Latin or
Roman alphabet consisted originally
Of only twenty-one letters, having no
W, 7 or 2, and I serving both as VOW
ell and consonant for J. The letters Y
and z were added about the beginning
of the Christian era and the letter W
later. The Turkish alphabet contains
thirty-four letters OF different forma-
ton and sound from those Of the Latin
or Roman.
What European countries claim the
right to the military services of their
sons, even though they are naturaiized
Americans, and also claim such service
on the part of American born sons OF
foreign parents?
France end Italy are the most i'm
portant European countries making tho
claim you mention.

ton in the Mexican war and the civil

gratitude would be adequate to speai
an affectlonate farewell"
Earlier. speaking in what may have
been the voice OF inspired prophecy.
Won BernstorH said to Mayor Patrick
r. Griffin, of Hoboken:
Il hope we shall be able to meet soon
again under more pleasant auspices. l
am sure peace will be here soon"
Peace and good feeling were the key
notes of both his spoken and acted
word throughout the day. At 6:56
o'clock in the morning, when the spe-
ctal train, which had carried the party
without special incident from Washing
ton, arrived at the railroad terminal in
Hopoken, there was a friendly crowd
ALREADY on hand. Count Won BernstorT
surprised the onlookers and shocked
the men who were there to guard him
by stepping out upon the rear platform
of his car and greeting with a smile
and bow the assembled crowd His
manner was entirely unreserved and
while his smile was genial. In repose
his face wore look of sadness mingled
with worry and concern. He readily
posed for the photographers and NOV
ing picture men. but interrupted the
work to disappear into his car, from
which he emerged minute later with
the countess on his arm.
A ripple OF applause greeted the
countess, and the swapping of shutters
and the grinding of movie machines
were resumed. When all was over there
came the request for an interview.
The look OF concern swept into his
face once more. and he shook his head
in dissent
No" he said; "ail that | had to say
said yesterday. | can say no more
am under orders"
With another bow. he and the
countess passed into the car. That was
practically Won Bernstorffs final public
appearance in America. few minutes
later he and the countess entered
closed automobile and were whiskeS 20
the pier, whence they boarded the ship

official suite waved American flags in
response.
The Frederick VIII, of the Scandi-
navian line. with the emhassadorial
party on board. got away from Ho-
boken at i:l0 r. NJ. An hour and
twenty minutes later Count Won Bern
storff got his final view of America as
tho liner passed Sandy Hook and
pointed her PROV east into the At
lantic
Not Hitch.
Tho departure of Count Won Bern
storn was accomplished without a
hitch As it turned out, merely a de-
tail of policemen to keep the crowd
back would have been sufficient pro-
lection for the diplomat and his
gracious American wife But a small
army Of secret service men, neutrality
guards and uniformed police were on
duty and from the time of the mid
night departure from Washington
Tuesday night. until the police boat
patrol left the Frederick VIII off Fire
Island to proceed alone, no untoward
incident occurred
The departure Of Count Won Bern

parture Of the Spanish ambassador Just

American war. when bricks were hurled
through the car windows of the retiring
diplomat and fears were entertain I'd

The retiring German diplomat and

OF fruit, three shells OF books and
scores of boxes of candy were deliv-
cred over the side. over 600 kilograms
conveying regrets and good wishes
were received before the ship pulled
