For This Sale.

The Reasons For This Great But in Shoe Prices ire: The fact that shoe manufacturers have no definite knowledge in te tariff on leather, or in what manner it may effect their business, makes it dangerous for them to carry stocks longer The manufacturing difficulties of the eastern manufacturers were settled so late that many shoe merchants bought their stocks elsewhere, and left eastern makers with large stocks on hand 1 which had to be sold at a loss. - The cold backward spring caused to be lost the repeat orders for which every manufacturer makes large preparations. This is another cause of great surplus stocks on hand which had to be sold at any price. Our shoes are made in our own factory, made by union labor and made independent of all trusts. M. B.

San Francisco, Cat, July 6. Willla j Ritchie demonstrated beyond question yesterday that he Is the world's light- , weight champion. There may hava been doubts yesterday as to the real ' pugilistic worth of the San Krancis- : can.

T. F. S. Humbles Former Teammates by Handing Out 4 to 0 Beating.

Mordecal Brown and the Cubs halved yesterday's holiday double-header 'twlxt Chicago and Cincinnati, and most everybody In the fanning crowd ssemed perfectly satisfied. Brownie won the first game almost single handed by a score of 4 to 0, and the Cuba annexed the second in a genuine Fourth of July finish, 5 to 3. The Reds must have thought they were in Cincinnati the way the crowd was rooting for them all the way through the first half of the bill. But the unanimity of the bugs In behalf of the visitors was due to the fact the Hon henrted Mordecal was on the slab for them. There was a tremendous shower of flowers for Brownie at the start, and salvos of cheers from then until he saunter dripping with perspiration to the shower bath, a perfectly contented discard.

1 St. Louis, Mo., July 6. A couple of : local thunderstorms tried to beat the 1 White Sox and Browns out of a nice

purse of money yesterday, but they managed to get through a doubleheader between 1:30 and 6 p. m. The Browns took the honors in the first, 6 to 1, and the Sox captured the scond, 2 to 1. It rained a bit at noon and again Just when it was time to begin the Fourth of July celebration, but the rain only delayed matters and kept a number of persons away from the entertainment. As it was, at least 12,000 fans turned out, a good crowd considering the threatening weather. The Browns feasted off Joe Bens In the opening game, winning the game before the Belleville butch boy could get two men out. A couple of singles and a home run took all the break out of his spitball. . Perhaps the dampness had something to do with it, too. When the local athletes began clouting again at the star of he second round, Joe was aken under the stand and hidden from view. Doc White taking his place.

OF ELGIN RACE

- Elgin, 111., July 5.- Charles Balke, hero of hundreds of motorcycle races on track and motordrome, won the 250-mile road race yesterday riding an Indian machine. Balke's time was 4:34:62, an average of 55.4 miles an hour. This constitutes an American record for motorcycle riding. "Following Balke were E. O. Baker, Charles Gustafson Jr., William Teutner. and Paul Warner, all riding Indians and in the order named. Sixth position was captured by L S. Taylor on a Merkel, seventh place to C. F. Ooudy on an Excelsior, eighth to S. B. Lonberger of Elgin on an Indian, ninth to P. L Stone, riding a Thor, and tenth place R. H. Firkin on a HarleyDavldson. Owing to the extreme heat, it was expected that much tire trouble would mar the contest, but such was not the case. Eight of the ten leading machines were appointed with Goodyear (Blue Streak) tires and the number of tire changes at the pit was remarkably low. In fact, the leading Indian machines not only did not stop at the pits for tire changes, but no stop of any kind was made by them for mechanical troubles.

Leach Displays All the Boxing Class and Finishes Man in 12 Rounds.

Los Angeles. Cal., July 6. They handed game little "Bud" Anderson a major league contract and the Oregon stripling failed to deliver the goods. Leach Cross, a repudiated short-ender at odds that made of the betting little less than a ghastly Joke, sent Anderson crashing to the floor with a killing right hand Jolt to the Jaw In the twelfth round. "- Knocked dawn in the first, beaten, punished and buffeted all about the ring, whipped from the very echo of the opening bell, Anderson came out for the twelfth on legs that shook under him and a dased look In his gray eyes, while Cross leaped quickly from his chair with a promise, smothered behind his glove, that he would' finish his man. In his eagerness to bring the battle to a close, the New Yorker lunged at his victim, missed, and both toppled to
