GAME s GREAT STAR
 NEVER IN BIG SERIES

Walter Johnson of the Washing ton Club in the American League, is another major league player of first rank who has never been in a worlds series. Had he ever drawn the chance in the years of his greatest triumphs he probably would have come as close to winning the series single handed as did Mathew son back in 1905. Sherwood McGee is another who can bewail his i'll fortune. He forced the Philadelphia Club to trade him in the winter of 1914-15 to what he thought was a pennant winner, but later develop ments proved that he simply kicked himself off a pennant winner and landed nowhere. Nap Fucker final ly landed in series as he was about to pass out of the majors, but many another star had not been so fortunate. The great Wagner fi- gured in two series over a stretch of twenty years and Cobb has taken part in three

CANADIANS WILL START WITH VETERANS IN LINE

Canadians, winners last season, will start with all of the veterans in line. Of course "Newsy" Lalonde will be back in the limelight with "holdout" suggestions, and will fol- low these up by signing on the eve of the first match, but the others as rendered. Wanderers, Quebec and Ottawa will have their clubs, intact, while Toronto will probably fill up from the amateur ranks The N. H.

DAWSON MAN ENDS LIFE
 BY JUMPING IN RIVER

P. J. Poulin, who left Dawson south, jumped overheard recently from that steamer, and was drown ed. says the Dawson News of Oct. 5th. It is believed that he became temporarily demented, and, in a fit of despondency, decided to end his life.
 Messages received by wire from Big Salmon state that the man jumped overheard near there. 9th CTS on board the boat saw him make the fatal plunge. The alarm was given, and ropes and life buoys were thrown him, but without avail.
 No trace has been found of the body. It is believed the body may not be found for long time, as the river is now quite chilly and bodies do not form sufficient gases to rise in cold water.
 On leaving Dawson POulin an nounced that he was going to Seat tie to enlist with the Nineteenth United States Infantry, regiment in which he saw service in the Span ish-American war and later in the Philippines. He was man of mid dle age, and apparently in the best of physical condition and enjoying life when he left here. He had been in the north fourteen years Three years were spent in the Chis ina camp, after which he returned to Dawson and mined near here.
 He had $1,165 on deposit with the purser of the Whitehorse.

WILLARD WILL NOT ENTER RING AGAIN THIS YEAR

Jess Willard will not enter the ring and defend his title at least this year, observes an eastern writ CT. The heavyweight champion, al though promising at different times to meet Fulton in title bout, is too busy with his circus to give any attention to ring affairs and accord ing to his latest statement is not particular whether he again climbs into the ring. He declares he is well off financially and that there is really no one in sight who could give him a battle that would satis fly the fans. Perhaps he is right.
