Smith to LeaT Seen. Jeff (Smith has been In this conn try for isverai weeks. He will not linger xnunh longer, as ha has several Important nmgenents to fulfill for "Snowy" Baker, th boxing Croesus of Australia. Smith will depart for tho other aid of the unl "verse ohortlyi but before bidding us adieu he would Ilk nothing better than a chance to meet Gibbons In aotual ring combat. Milce holds a local newspaper decision over Smith, and It Is to obliterate this smirch on his record that Smith evinces auoh a strong deetra to mingle with this Gibbons person. Clabby also has a score to settle with lbs fit Paul phantom. The prototype of Jim Onrbett Is In a predicament similar t that of Jefferson Rmith. Clabby points with a feeling at shame to an unnucceai ful muss with Oibbona, and ever slno that evening he has hail a penchant to iwlp out the defeat, for he feels confident In his ability to reverse the decision If tie ever gets Gibbons Into the ring again. Clabby will not have to wait long for action If Gibbons Is not too unreasonable In his demands. Two promoters ar al ready camping on Clabby's trail with an alluring offer for him to tackl Oibbona Just as soon as Jimmy recovers his land legs, ho will be asked to fill a Novem ber data with hla most hated contempor ary. Jim Coffroth, representing Ban Ttan- risoo, and Tom McCarey, who keeps shop In Los Angeles, ar both after a matoh between Clabby and Gibbons. Th latter has expressed his willingness to be party to such a fight, but has not as ret named his price for his services. A Derby contest between these two oould oome chose to unraveling tho com pies middleweight situation. Clabby la not far behind Olbbons In th matter of boxing; but Gibbons Is conceded to hav cenoaaled about his person a heavier wallop. Another reason Clabby Is anx ious to tackle Olbbons Is to dispel tho prevalent opinion that he Is a boxer with a feather-duster punch. If Clabby's punching power were th equal of that ff Gibbons, he would have an excellent chance of lowering Mike's colors. Did some one remark that these were parlous times In th boxing gamT Without delving further baok than weak ago, we can bring up beror you something over (100,000 that has beep mentioned In connection with sora pro posed metrites. First, some Individual on th Coast offered for Freddie Welsh's approval bid of 100,000 for his participation In three matches. The lightweight chain jilon spumed the offer. Next an enter prising Milwaukee promoter dangled 126.000 before Charley White's eyes, to be had If he would agree to box three rivals. Whit snapped his fingers at the proposition. Next, w heard of a syndi cate offering Jack Johnson 30,ono for hla end to battle Jeaa Wlllard any number of rounds the champion desired. The maduro title-holder Is embroiled on tho other side, so his answer Is withheld. GIt Novel Rxraaea. Welsh and White advanced novel ex cuses for turning down such huge offers. "Welsh's reason for giving the "go by" to StiO.OUO for three bouts was because he feared that Willie Itltrhle inlsht bo In cluded among his three opponents. Not that Welsh la afraid to fight Ritchie. Th lightweight champion's explana tion la that he would never battle Kltehle again, unleea the ex-champion oould guarantee him IJ6.000 for hla 'end. tho amount Welsh had to guarantee Ritchie before he got hlin Into the ring and sheared him of hla title. If he must mix with Ritchie to get the money, Welsh figure tnat he will be puld only 12.5 for each of hla two other rVits. This would never do. Welsh admitted that he would snap up th offer if Rlrrhle were not to be considered. Whit thua enlightens a breathless porting public for hla lark of concern when offered IJ&.Ouo for three exhibi tions; If he meets Welsh flrti and knocks him out, thus acquiring the light weight championship, he could III afford to dally with two other opponents for the balance of the money. Very logical, but "White evidently does not recall the time that he would have welcomed an oppor tunity to fight a champion for only a .crack at the title. Wlllard's backers have posted a certi fied check fpr lln.ftO to go as part of the purse for the Johnson match. But It Is uaruiy uKeiy uiai mis Dout win ever materialise, as practically every country lias barred Johnson from flighting In Us domain.

B0ST0U IS KEEPING AHEAD Whirlwind Finish of Season and At. tending dnecess Is Liable to May TTlth Tram Thronh Playoff fer Werld'a Championship. By FRANK G. MF.SKR. NI5W TOHK, Oct. S.-The Uraves and Athletics will go Into the world series at even money In the heavy betting that will be done during the early part of this week. If any odds are given they prob ably won't be better than i to i on the Athletics. Two weeks ago, whet it looked a If the Braves would' grab I he National league bunting, soma folks were daring enough to offer t to 1 on the Athletics. But since then the rank Mid file of fens have been studying tho relative meilts of the rival teams and thov have awak ened suddenly to the fact thnt the Braves, In machine poer, are not much Inferior to the wonderful Athletics. They have perused tho records of the pitchers who will work In that series and they have found that the great Bos ton trio ranks with the best that Connie Mack can produce. They have found that the Bravea, as a team, has Improved wonderfully In hitting, and that In field ing they are superior to the Mnckmen. , One other factor they have found In the Athletic' favor and It seems like the big factor. The Braves haven't "cracked." Instead their plsy during the last month has ben ever better and stronger than It was through the luttor part of July and through August Instead, cf tiring the Braves teem to have grown stronger. And with each victory their confidence has increased. Braves Making; Good. The whirlwind dash of the '.Iravcs that why Isn't there a fine chance of history repeating T White Box Were Lsoky. The White Sox of 190 won not because they were a better team, but simply be cause they were lucky enough to get the breaks, and also for another reason probably the big reason. The White Hox went Into the series full of confidence, gained by their dash through the ranks of the American league. They had turned aside all Amer ican league opposition. They had come to believe themselves Invincible. And believing so they fought so. Their at tack surprised the Cubs, swept them off their feet, daxed them and beat them. The Bravea have rushed along aa did the White Hox. During the two months of ths spurt they have oome to believe that they are Invincible. Their confi dence Is superb. They never quit; never despair. Time and again the other team got the "Jump" on them, but nearly every time the Braves came up from be hind and snatched the game from out of the fire. The Braves may go Into the series bit tired, a bit weary, but they'll go Into It feeling certain of vlc.to.y. They'll play the game until the last man Is out In the ninth. They have come to be fight ers real fighters and with them as foea of the Mackmen the base ball publlo can look forward to one of tho moat bit terly contested world series In base ball's history. Foot Ball Provides Funds for the Other Cornhusker Sports LINCOLN, Oct. 8 (Special. -Foot ball was the big money-maker for University of Nebraska athletics, according to the report of T. A. Williams, treasurer of student activities, filed with the athletlo board yesterday. Total receipts from all sources during the year ending September 1, 1914, amounted to $:il,!fi0.9. For the same pe riod the expenditures wore JIS.K), leaving a balance In the treasury of 12,043.63. Had It not been for foot bail, however, the Cornhusker finances would have been In sorry shape. The gridiron sport gave Ne braska $:9,s.25, with a net profit from foot ball alone of $8,356.97. All other sports resulted In small losses, as fol lows: Track, $1.2xr; basket ball, 1231.30; wrestling, C2.74; soccer, cross-country and Interdepartmental sports, $170.53. Th athletic board, however, was en abled to take up old Indebtedness on tho athletic field of $2,570.26 and to make per manent Improvements on the grounds amounting to $1,378.83.

You can take for your own the power of better clothes without adding much to your expenditure; perhaps you will save. We refer to STYLEPLUS CLOTHES $ 1 7. The price is moderate because the makers have worked out a plan of specializing on this one suit Aa a result, for only $17 you get the styling of a great fashion artist, hand tailor ing where hand tailoring counts, and fabrics selected by woolen experts. Wear guaranteed, i You can certainly afford to pay $17 to get these good clothes qualities. If you have been paying mere at other stores we ask you to come here and pay less. Remember that we have just as many STYLEPLUS overcoats as we have suits. Big selections of both.
