MANY RECORDS FELL DURING 1915 FOOT BALI. SEASON REPLETE ~ WITH UPSETS PEACE REIGNS IN BASEBALL WORLD.

~~w ITH but few exceptions Amer
 ica maintained the reputa-
 w tation in 1915 of producing
 WG the leading figures in sport,
 W# and no other country was
 able to develop so many rec
 ord-breakers as were seen here. The absence of foreign com petition lessened the interest of Amer ican sport followers to- small de- gree during the year almost finished, but in spite of this fact indoor and outdoor sports and pastimes engaged more attention to probably a greater degree than ever before in the his tory of sport in this country. New champions sprang up in the places of some who appeared destined to go on for at least another year, but many of those who were at the top of the list in their particular branch were still able to uphold their supremacy, and every branch of sport showed a healthy and pleasing growth.
 For the first time in many years there was no international competi- lion. The nations now engaged in the Ehropean war furnished many con- tenders for international honors, and n0t few of the athletes, who helped 10 make athletic history in this coun- try are now in the trenches, while gflfeFs have fallen victims to bullets or disease. Among the international events abandoned were the hydro plane racing for the British Inter national Motor Boat trophy, Davis Cup competition, polo matches, golf. tennis, and track and field athletics.
 Scarcely a competition of any na- ture was seen in which the number of aspirants for the chief honors was not greater than in the year preceding.
 A noticeable revival of interest on the running turf brought this popular sport to a high plane, and although no horses were developed to measure up to the types of those which form erly made racing a popular institu- ton tho improvement both in the quality of the runners and the at tendance at the race meets was grati- flying and encouraging to leaders ia the thoroughbred racing world.

The first tourist to meet death while sightseeing in Alaska was J.. .C. Mcdonald. of Los Angeles, who was accidentally killed at Kctchikan last Saturday morning when the Princess Sophia was in that place southbound. Word of his death was brought to Juneau by r. F. w.

 Mir Mcdonald with a party Of tourists, landed from the Sophia and were walking around the town look ing at the sights. During their walk they crossed the bridge from the back part of the city across Ket, chikan Creek to the shinglo mill. While crossing the bridge, which has no railing, Mcdonald fell and slipped over the edge into the creek below. The water was high at the time and he was swept away, before aid could reach him. Al the time MT. Lowle left Ketchlkan the body had not been recovered.
 1t was from the same bridge that Chester C. Pulcn. of Skagway fell and was lost, several years ago. and is also near the same spot where M. A. Ferguson. the Pacific Coast Biscuit salesman was lost less than two years ago.

The old theory that men over a.
are useless in the business world
where efficiency is demanded is re-
futed by DR. Claude l. Wheeler editor
Of the New York Medical Journal. He
says man does not reach his mental
zenith, the height Of his productive
power in business, industrial or pro-
fessional world before the age OF 55
Physically, the man between 45 and
60 is strong enough to fill most po-
sitions in modern industry" says
DR. Wheeler. Mentally, he is at his
prime, and should be the greatest
value 10 his employer From a psy-
Geological standpoint, he makes a
better workman than a younger man
because he has more at stake. be-
cause he is steadied by the desire to
provide for his family or save for his
old age, Any man in the business
for himself will tell you that the

iods is the most productive time OF

olaekmailed and pounded senseless in
and near the place than in some OF
the wild and woody mining camps.
But as bad as the Tivoli was, it was
only q patch on the surface of the
Ienderloin. There were hundreds OF
other dance halls and hundreds of
vicious proprielors in the red light
district and each vas worse than
the other. Thieves and their women
companions ruled with a high hand:
and The police took the biggest. share
OF the rake-off that was garnered by
the robber gang. But all of this is

Lord Northcliffe asserts that III the

Discussing the western theatre as

absolutely impregnable. This remark
may equally apply to the German line

"Non -combatants such as those with

Lord Northcliffe, "are, in my opinion,
