on the night Carl Morris and Jim
Flynn boxed at Madison Square Garden,
New York. the writer had a pleasant
greeting from Mccoy.

Kid. '1'd like 10 see You before you

The changing of the gong broke up the

HOME CURE FOR
RHEUMATISM

Do not waste time nor take chances
Of becoming a cripple or helpless
sufferer from Rheumatism by trying
to cure the disease with external APP
plications alone. Such treatment
sometimes gives relief from the
severe pain, or may reduce the
inflammation of swollen joint or
muscle, but the effect cannot be more
than temporary. Each day the cause
is allowed to remain in the system
Rheumatism gets a firmer hold on
its victim. Purify your blood of the
inflammatory uric acid and then you
will cure the disease permanently.
The system will respond more quickly
and surely to S. S. S. than any other
treatment. This great blood purifier
possesses the penetrating qualities
necessary to drive out every trace of
urate matter from the circulation and
build the blood up to a nourishing
and healthful condition. Only pure
blood can overcome Rheumatism, and
S. S. S. surely creates pure blood
Thousands have cured themselves of
Rheumatism by using S. S. S., a
medicine made entirely OF roots,
herbs and barks; no harmful mineral
enters into it's composition, and
S. S. S. is therefore safe for any one
to use. Write for our book on Rheu-
1natism and ask for any special medt
ical advice. No charge for either.

then show their caliber. The Nebraska
line Is strong and ought to hold its own
against the Alissourians, even though the
whole team does go into a slump.
Another thing that the Nebraska
coaches consider is that the Missourians
are now beginning to hit a fast pace
and that they should be going at their
best when they come to Lincoln next
week. Put down the fact that the Corn
huskers probably will be going back a
little and Il is easy to see that Missouri

Missouri. having watched the Cornhusk-
ers using all their best plays TO defeat
Minnesota this afternoon, should also
have a defense capable of stopping the
pet plays OF Coach Steihm. Every ad-

ians.

he could probably shoot the oval over
the crcssbays for several points during
the contest. Nebraska fears the Mis-

1908, or than it has been in several sea-
sons. There is an abundance of timber,
and the injury or going back" of two
or three men would not seriously cripple
the eleven.
All fall Coach Steihm has been using
extra men in the line and several players
in the backfield, all with the purpose Of
getting up a machine which can be
plugged up with substitutes at any time
that such a thing may be necessary. 1t
is an excellent bunch of men who are
ready for service in the backfield. There
are two sets of back and two quarters:
Potter and Warner, two brilliant per-
formers, are ready for use at quarter,
and 1t is hard to tell which is the better
OF the pair, In the back position there
are L. Frank, o. Frank. Racely, NULL
gan, Gibson and Russell, all players of
first caliber. Purdy and Gibson are full
backs, but can play at half with equal
display of power, speed and efficiency.
Purdy is the regular at full. The two
Franks have displayed admirable form
at half. Racely, the young fellow who
got into the Kansas-Aggie game with
such a scintillating bit of work last Sat
urday, is a wonder at half and can be
used there in case either of the Franks
are hurt. Gibson displays brilliant form
on the defense, and is acquiring a better
knowledge of the offensive game, so that
he is almost as valuable as some of the
regulars. Injuries to any of the regulars
in the baokfield will not cripple the team
seriously, though a slump to these men
and several of the forwards would put
a crimp in the chances of the Cornhusk-
ers for defeating the Missouri bunch.
Line Men Strong.

ROBBERS Use
SHARK FOR BAIT

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 17.-Carl
Johnson, a butcher residing at 1871
Maple avenue, Los Angeles, stroled
down into the North Beach district
yesterday to see the sights. Near
Meiggs wharf he met three men, one
of whom said:
Say, there is a shark forty feet
long farther down the dock. It's a
great sight. Come on and We'll show
YOU"
At Fay and Kearny streets, Johnson
and his three newly-made friends sat
down and matched coins for awhile
Suddenly Johnson said: Say, I'm not
from Missouri. l don't believe any
shark ever got to be forty feet long,
and | amt goin' to look at it. Good
bye"
Then one of the trio grabbed John
son around the neck and another tore
from his finger a diamond ring. The
robbers ran in different directions. De-
tective Sergeants Conlan and Mackey,
who CHANGED to be in the vicinity, look
ing for a potato thief, saw the men
running and gave chase. They over
took one, who gave the name of Ed
Wilson. He was charged with grand
larceny He did not have the ring on
his person.

FLOATING SALMON
CANNERY TESTED

TACOMA, Oct. 16.-Reports of
successful seasons work of the only
floating cannery in the world, the old
dismantled sailing ship Glory of the
Seas, which has just returned from
Southeastern Alaska, made it evident
that the plan of placing a cannery on
shipboard is destined to be widely
copied. Options have been closed by
various firms on a number of old
barges, and the next season will see
at least half a dozen portable Gamer
les in operation.
Ability to move the cannery on the
Glory of the Seas from place to place
prevented the failure several times
during the season. When the run Of
fish became poor an ordinary cannery
would have been forced to shut down,
but it was simply necessary to hitch
tug to Glory and tow her to anoth-
er field She brought 10000 cases,
her capacity packing, to port.
Under the plan Of arrangement on
the ship, the salmon was handled first
on the main deck and then down to
lower decks as the process of can
ming and cooking proceeded. Conse-
quently, when the vessel was ready
to start south the whole pack rested
in her lower holds and had only to
be hoisted out on her arrival.

It is only where the pay is very

no extension of roads or trails until
