FAMOUS SPORTING
AUTHORITY PASSES AWAY,

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE death of
Alfred S. Smith. better known In the
sporting world as "Ai" Smith, which
was reported at the Gilsey House after
midnight. removes a man who was
highly honored for more than fifty
years by all who knew him. "Arf
Smith was the last court of resort in
all disputes OF sporting matters For
thirty years he had been the final au-
thority, and his word was accepted
universally and without question.
While Smith achieved much fame ~
a referee in important prize fights, his
reputation was built as much on the
fact that he had been a stakeholder
of millions of dollars wagered in bets
on sporting events and on political
elections.
Every sporting man of note in
America knew Ar Smith intimately.
His life had been devoted to the sport
ing world. In his room Smith had one
of the most complete sporting libraries
extant. When the library was serious
ly damaged by fire last spring Smith
was deeply affected. He grieved over
his irreparable loss, and his friends say
he was not well since. In his seventy
years he had enjoyed good health until
the last few months.

something worth while.
Tommy O'Toole, the crack Quaker

The match was made Saturday night
