JUDGE O'CONNOR SUMMONED TO
 FINAL REST

William O'Connor, one of the best known characters in Alaska, died at Kennecott Hospital Sunday morning. With his passing another gap is made in the ranks of the oldtimers. He had been ailing for some time but the ehd came suddenly from cancer of the stomach.
 Judge O'Connor was born in Kansas about seventy-one years ago Of ulsh- American parentage. He was proud of his ancestry who had been driven from Ireland as insurrectionlsts against the English rule. During the last year of the civil war, OConnor then fifteen years of age, enlisted Ill the Northern army as drummer boy. He was in the service about three months when the war ended. He was also active in the Indian wars or 186S-9, serving as drummer. After practicing law a number of years Ill his native state, C'Connor came to Alaska about 1905, settling at Far banks. In 1910 he was the candidate of the Labor Party for Delegate to Congress. After the election he took up his residence in Cordova, where he practiced his profession until 1914, when he was appointed United States Commissioner at Chitina, which posi- tion he held at Chitina and Mccarthy up to the first of January, last. He IS survived by two sons and two daugh- ters, all resident in the state of Wash ington.
 Judge O'Connor was man of strong personality, having strong likes and dislikes, but withal just man accord ing to his lights. The memory of his many kindly acts will long be cher ished in the hearts of those who knew him.

LEAD ON, McGRAW!

John McGraw is preparing to
embark on his twenty-first season
as manager of the Giants. Which
bears out, once more the we'll
known belief that McGraw is a
glutton for punishment. He is
also some leader. Since he took
ahold of the Giants the team
has finished in the second division
but twice.
He has won seven pennants;
finished second eight times, third
one year and fourth two years.
His first year the Giants finished
in last place.
McGraw was born at Truxton,
N. Y, April T, 1878. Broke into
baseball with clean, N. Y, in
1890. Joined Cedar Rapids team
the next year only to be obtained
by the Baltimore orioles, with
which club he won his fame. He
played second until Ned Hanlon
shifted him to third in 1892.
The st. Louis Cardinals bought
McGraw and Wilbert Robinson in
1900. The next year they formed
the Baltimore American league
club. Following a row with Ban
johnson, however, McGraw jump
ed to the Giants in July, 1902.
With Jawn went Jack Cronin,
Dan Mccain and Joe McGinnity.
McGraw drew $4,000 a year
when he began to manage the
Giants. His new contract calls for
$65,O00 q year.
How times have changed.
