CHICAGO MAY
 TRADE FOR JACK

From Chicago comes news Of possible deal between the White Sox and Tigers involving Joe Jackson, long famed outf1elder of the Windy City clan, and either Harry Kellman, Ownie Bush or Bob Veach of Detroit. Comiskey and Jackson still are re- ported to be at odds over the player assertion of the club last summer for a shipyard job and insiders are cer- tain the SoX owner intends to ship the shoeless star to another club.
 By the same token Owen Bush, De- troits brilliant shortstop, is reported to be dissatisfied with his lot on the Tigers and is seeking a new job. He1l- man and Veach, two of the best out fie1ders in baseball, also are possi- btit;es for transfer to Chicago for Co., 1niskey admires both of them.
 Friends of the Chicago club owner say there is remote possibility of a reconciliation with Jackson. Efforts have recently been exerted by mutual friends to adjust the difficulties be- tween magnate and player but little headway has been made. A trade by which Jackson will bid goodby to the Sox appears inevitable

Dick HowelTs boxing bill is now in the hands of the Judiciary committee at Hartford and will probably be as- signed for a hearing next week.

TODAY'S ANNIVERSARY.

The first attempt to ascend Mont Blanc was made by Horace Benedict de Saussure, a Genevese professor and traveller, who was born 179 years age today. Accompanied by number of guides he gained a place near the summit, but was forced by a terrific snowstorm to turn back. In 1S86, the year after his first attempt, he tried again, but although he fahed' one of his guides discovered a better route He did not impart his secret to de Saussure, but let gentleman named Paccard into the secret, and in August, 17S6. Paccard, led by the guide, became the conqueror of Mont Blanc. The following year de Saus- sure made the ascent, and all Europe rang with his name, for while Pac- cards exploit had been doubted, there could be no question of de Saus- sure's triumph.
