THE WEATHER
Official Forecast
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.
t.
For eastern Pennsylvania and New Jer
sey Fair tonight and probably Tuesday;
not much change in tomperature; light
Variable winds, mostly south.
The Western cool area drifted across
the Lake region and Is over New Bruns
wick this morning, having passed so far
to the northward that Its influence was
barely noticeable in Philadelphia. High
temperatures prevail In the Middle At
lantic States and the Ohio basin, with a
moderate excess elsewhere In the eastern
half of the country. The only Immediate
nope for a breaking up of tho oppressive
heat lies In tho possibility of an Increase
of barometric pressure to tho northeast,
a condition that is extremoly difficult to
anticipate,

NEW YOniv, Sept. 13. The McFarland
Olbbons rtght was still tho chief topic of
conversation In Gotham sporting cliclcs,
and If anything was even n moro popu
lnr theme than It was Saturday. The
consensus ci opinion was wholeheartedly
thnt the Chlchgo man deserved the de
cislnn, nlthough there was not much
inclination to give Pnckey gtcat gobs
of credit, becaUBo of his light punching.
Few, howevor, questioned tho fact that
Fackey landed two blows to Mike's one,
light as they were.
Just as the consensus of opinion was
that I'nckey won, sports writers nnd
trill.., t A,-, ,trf nil!.. ,r,n nlmm.a Ir. thn
belief that Olbbons can nttrlbute his de- !
feat to making 147 Pounds. Gibbons
looked drawn In tho ring there wasn't
nn ounco of fat on him. while McFar-
land was sleek nnd smooth.
Opinions of fighters themselves who wit
nescd the mn.ch were In favor of Mc
Fnrlnnd. Abe Attcll, former feather
weight champion, thought McFnrland i
won, ns did Jim Coffey, the Dublin giant,
and others. W.JIc Itltchle, American
lightweight champion, thought It was
"about a draw, with the shade, If any, to
McFarland."
Gibbons loft for his St. Paul home yes
terday ovor 116.000 richer for his 30-mln-
I utes' work Ills share of the purse was
xii.uou, ana added to thnt was 11200 for

down was JlT.noo for his work and about
$1200 for tho pictures.

ANCIENT BABY CAPS VANISH
Has Any One Seen a Little White Box
Containing Two Cherished Heir
looms of the Blackburn Family
Somewhere on the road between Bryn
Mawr and the fashionable precincts of
Spruce street two little baby caps, almost
a century old, lie reposing, unmindful of
the worry and anxety that they are caus
Ing the man who lost thorn and the
woman to whom they bolong.
Tho caps aro helrloomB, and were
among the. most cherished possessions of
Mrs, C. T. Blackburn, because long years
ago they wero worn by her grandmother,
a direct descendant of Governor Brad
ford, of Connecticut, Now the Black
burns have a little girl who la old enough
to wear them! she Is 5 months of age,
and they ore gone.
Mr. Blackburn Is the poor unfortunate
whn lost them.
"I don't see how It happened," he Bald
In a distressed tone this morning. "I was
going to our new homo in Vlllanova and
stopped In the city en route. The caps
were In a little white box, and I waa
moving them along with a few other
things. When I went to look for them
they they were gone," his voice trailed
off Into a wall of sorrow, "We had Just
had them bleached and carefully darned,
so our little girl could wear them, and
Mrs. Blackburn Is greatly distressed."
A reward has been offered for the re
turn of the little bits of embroidery that
once graced the head of a little baby of
the 1830 period, but though the caps wero
lost on Saturday no one has as yet come
forward with any knowledge of' them,
end a cloud still hangs over the Black
burn family.
