A Hero OF n Day.

Most football players achieve fame
by degrees, but now and then some
fellow hobs up unexpectedly and
grabs off great gobs of glory in a
single game. Such a chap was Sam
White. Of Princeton. and the story OF
his feat IS worth retelling. 1t was
Just five years ago this month. that
Sam White made himself immortal.
Sam had been great baseball play
er, but the gridiron game didn't in
terest him. and twas not until 1911.
when he was n senior. that he was in
duced to have y try ut it. He did so
well that he became a regular in
good standing on the varsity eleven.
On the day in question Princeton
played Its ancient enemy, Yale. The
game was nearing itsyclose, with the
score 8 TO 0 in favor Of Yale. when
old Sam B. White got on the job.
Yale fumbled the pigsIlin and White
went aftertit at full speed. He did
not fall on it as was the immemoriaI
custom. He Just picked 1T UP as if
it were a baseball, without slowing
UP. and shot away with the ball un-
der his wing, going sixty yards for a
touchdown. And he won the wame.

Col. Theodore Roosevelt. then po-
lice commissioner of New York, was
among those present twenty years ago
tonight. November 16, when old
Peter Maher Knocked out Joe
Choynislli in the sixth round OF a
bout staged in the metropolis. The
tall Hebrew had the best of the arr
gument in the early rounds, and the
Irishman was rather bloody spec
l5tacle as the result of assimilating so
many OF Joe's earnest punches and
jabs Everybody thought Choypski
i had a cinch. but in the sixth round
Peter got over one of those punches
for which he was famous. and the
! Jewish gladiator took nap while the
referee counted ten. Mayer had a
terrible punch. IN fact. Bob Fitz-
simmons, who had sampled a lot or
wallops declared Peters punch had
more kick in it than any other he
lever tried. Col. Roosevelt wasn't in
tile least Mortified by the strenuous
4 battle. but said afterwards that it
4 was a bully fight" and added that
lie had himself been knocked out as
5completeiv as Choynsl1i was without
isuffering any Ill effects.

begin witnin thirty miles OF the Pacific
ocean and they extend to the Arctic.
They are a thousand miles long. and
in places goo miles wide. They com
prise almost as much land as either
Germany or France. and altogether. are
equal TO one-third of Alaska. The coun-
try is separated from Alaska by the
international boundary. which crosses the
Yukon river about leo miles from Daw

Dawson is the chief town Of the ter
ritory. 1t is the seat of government
and the headquarters of the mounted
police. Here the Judges hold court. and
here is the residence of the commissioner,
who lives in state on the east bank of
the Yukon. The government house is
large yellow frame building. with a
great porch at the front. upheld by mas
sive square columns. There IS a beat
tiful lawn in front of 1t and wide beds
of panses line the walk that leads to
the entrance. In its rear are gardens

connected with them are the hothouses

bers on the commissioners table.
The government house is the social
court of the territory. The commissioner
cntertains a great deal. His wife is an
American woman the daughter of
George NJ. Munger. formerly of Chicago
and now of Los Angeles. Mrs. Black
made her debut in Washington during
the administration cf President Cleve-
land. and was often entertained at the
White House. She is beautiful woman
with social ability that fits her to be
the first lady of the Yukon. She and
the commissioner are good companions
and good mixers. They go out camping
together, and take long tours through the
wilds, where the gun and fishing rod
supply most of the food
