tipe when there was no champion and
by bearing second-rate man vaultcd
into the much-envled position.
Maher frankly acknowledges that his
present high state in the pugilistIc world
is as much surprise to him as anyone
else. Two months ago cham pionship
honors were far from his mind, He was
content TO get On u match with some
good second-rater and fight for all he was
good for. for moderate purse. He has
because no one would listen to him or
PRINT what he said. 1t is doubtful now
if he develops into a windbag, with such
horrible Examples bufore him as Coroett
and Fitzsimmons.
A number of sporting men deride Ma
hers claim to tue championship, but
these men assume that position simply
because Maher has not earned the title in
the traditional way. Leaving all senti-
ment aside and looking at the matter
purely from logical standpoint, Msher
is justly entitled to his claim. Corbett
had retired from the ring and had of1ici
ally announced the fact. The two heavy
weights next in order were Steve OF Dom
nell and Peter Maher. These m en- met,
and in trife over minute of terrific
slugging. Maher put O'Donnell to sleep.
Had Fitzsimmons been the opponent of
U'Donnell In that fight, and had knocked
the the latter out, no one would have ques-
toned the claim of FitZimmons to the
ohampio aship.
Now Fitzsimmons must meet and best
Mnher before he can claim the title. That
Fitzsim mons can do this there is little
doubt. Maher belongs to the Sullivan
school of fighters, AMI against an adept
of the new school like Fitzsim mons. he
stands little chance of winning. Maher
is capable of swinging blow which
would kill an OK. His terrific hitting
powers is his only hope. He is not a
ring general or skilled defensive fig liter
anu cannot be called scientific fighter,
Judged from the standard OF ring science
today. Maher has this in his favor, how.
ever, he is regular bulldog in the ring
and fights like a whrlwind. He tastes no
time in preliminary fiddling or sizing up
an opporent. HIS one idea is to get at
his man and knock him out in che
quickest possible time. If he can land
ons blow in the early part of the fight he
is likely to be returned winner.
Steve O'Donnell, after the fight OF Mas
peth, l.. l.. said that he did not remem-
Der anything after the first blow Maher
landed on him. All he could think of
was that he must try to get on his feet
before the bell rang. The second smash
on his jaw did not cause him any pain,
but left him empty headed. He said that
he crawled onto his feet mechanically
without knowing what he was DUNG.
After the third blow he did not regain
his senses until Maher had been declared
cham pion of the world and had lett the
ring. These few words from O'Donnell
are an immense tribute to the hitting
powers of Maher.
Around Corbett's withdrawal theYe is q
halo of diplomacy and shrewdness OF
which tie outside public knows nothing.
The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1895-12-08

In retiring he killed two birds with one
stone and built nice fence around his
own ability to regain the championship.
TO make this clear 1t is necessary to GO
back Il little.
When Corbett was TRAILING tor the Fitz-
simmons fight Steve O'Donnell, his spar
ring partner, began to get the big head
He really thought that he was better
man than Corbett, and in the practice
bouts used to 60 at the Californian with
needless force. lie wanted to make
monkey of Corbett in private WORK in
the hope that news of his prowess would
get into the papers. Corbett sized up his
design, and at .he first opportunity in
the practice work went at o Donnell in
earnest and smashed his nose fiat on his
face. After that they did not box to-
gether and Corbett had Brady arrange
the match betweeu O. 0onnell and Maher.
tCorbettites claim that Jim knew o. Don.
nell was counterfeit and that Maher
would dispose Of him in a punch. and
that the sole purpose of the match was to
get rid OF O'Doancll.
This is the Corbett end of the story,
and it may be true. but more probably
it is rank piece of injustice to O'Don-
nell, who is quiet. houest fellow. utter
ly incapable of intrigue.
The other thing which Corbett accom-
pIished by the O. Donnell- match is
that he has placed on the championship
pedestal man who may be the cause of
Fitzsimmons' downfall. Fitzsimncns
must whip Maher. Then. if Corbett Is
so inclined lie can re-enter the ring and
fight Fitzsim ons. If Maher by an acci.
~ental blow should whip Fitzsimmons
Corpett can challenge Maher and regain
the championship at small cost. Maher
is really Corbett's buffer against Fiizsim-
mons. The latter must really whip two
men, Maher and Corbett, TO gain per
maneut hold on the championship,
whereas, if the Hot Springs fight had
gone through. the Australian had first
chance at the title.
Maher is playing right INTO Corbett's
hands by announcing that Fltzsi mons
has the hrst claim on HIM for Eight. Big

neli-Maher fight. Is already at work try

great draw back. Few American girls
take up ballet dancing until they are IS
or 20 years OF age. and then it is too late,
according to the high standard set by the
Italian and French masters. The bones
have become set and are incapable of the
supple action OF tins foreign dancers.
The finest dancers are turned out at
Milan, where the pupils of La Scala are
Obliged to make their debut at the age of
16 and to finish their apprenticeship at
the famous opera house. The pupils are
recruited annually from the conserva-
toire, and most OF them begin to dance
at the age of or y. This system gives
La Scala perpetual supply OF young and
graceful dancars, whereas the other
famous opera houses Of Europe are dis
figured by a mixture Of the ssXagenarian
with the budding coryphees.
In previous years the grand opera here
has always had its share of dancers who
had been on the boards for thirty or forty
years. In making up the 1896 ballet
the management respectfully rejected the
old ladies who had annually aired their
aged charms before the gaze of New
York's gided set. In the present ballet
there is not a woman over 80. or if she is
she don't look it. even in street attire,
and most OF them are nearer 90. In
selecting them particular attention was
paid to their knowledge of music, as
truly artistic dancer must have more than
smattsring CT music to keep in perfect
rhythm with the orchestra.
More than average Intelligence is
nee led for twenty-four operas will be
produced this season, and in eacn one
the steps of the dances are different. To
mcmorize these steps SO that the twenty
four will appear like u piece of well-regu-
lated machinery is no easy task, and the
dancers must all be familiar with the
music CT the various operas to keep in
perfect accord.
These girls each earn in the mel Oh bor-
hood OF 500 week, but their work is
worth every cent Of it, although thew
only dance three times week and are
not on the stage i'll all more than cou-
pie OF hours. The unthinking man or
woman will say that $50 is very good nav
for few hours work. But these peosle
do not know of the many years of prepar-
atofy labor, the money sent upon educa-
tion and long, arduous renearsals. They
also forget that ballet dancer at the
most caAnot get work for more than five
or six months in the year, and that she
has to live the rest of the time and per-
haps support family.
If q woman gave up five years of her
life to perfect heself in any business like
millinery or dressmaking and was pos.
sessed of more than average int diligence
she would regard herself as moderately
paid If her profits amounted to but $500
or $1,000 year. Then the risk OF the bal-
let dancer in failing to get employment
IS very great. The slightest accident to
limb or body incapacitates her, and while
some are able to prosecute their Work
seemingly forever, the career of the aver
age dancer is not more than eight or ten
years.

NEW YORK, Nov GA new cham
pion of the world has dawned upon the
pugilistio arena, and scarcely a ripple
of excitement resulted. This is the pen
atty Of the Fitzsimmons-J orbe fasc0.
Peter Maher, the new ampion, will
not be the champion for long of the
knowledge of experts counts for anything,
and som etlmes it doesn't. When Corbett
and Sullivan met tie experts all figured
out Sullivan to be certain winner. and
when Dempsey and Fitzsim ons met the
same experts could not see any one but
Dempsey as the victor.
1t is certain that no champion ever
earned the title as easy as Maher did.
All the others had to fight their way up
from the bottom of the ladder and knock
out the real cham pion before tho title
was theirs. But Maher, by the force OF
favorable circumstances, stepped IN at q

CONSUL MILO A. JEWETT,

The recent outrages IN Armenia
have brought into newspaper
prominence Milo A. Jewett, the
United States consul at Sivas,
Turkey. He was appointed by Pres
ident Cleveland to represent the
United States in investigating the
outrages in Armenia, but the Sultan
will not let him serve in this capacity.
The Sultan's objection to his serv.
ing is probably due to the fact that
he married an Armenian lady, I'M
derstands the language thoroughly
and could get at all the facts, but Of
course would be inclined, naturally
enough, to view them from a stand
point which the Turkish government
would probably regard as biased
Mr.. Jewett is a son of the late DR..
