SOME INSIDE HISTORY.
Maher Was Rushed to tho Front, Not for
What lie Had Done. but for What 1t Was
Hopcd lie Could DO.

Maher was picked up and pushed to
the front as an aspirant for champion
| ship hOnors not for what he had done
but what 1t was hoped that he might
| accomplish. He was made the willing
tool of those who disliked Fitzsimmone
as well as for the protection of anoth-
er. 1t was another of those cases where
q single victory over a flattered oppon-
ent swells the head until the victor
really imagines that he Is in the cham
pionship class.
History of the ring contains any num-
Der of cases of this kind, and yet, sing
ularly enough, instances are rare
wherein u boxer has been found among
those who have won and lost along the
path to championship honors. True
champions have lost in early days. but
their defeats were found i'm a different
sort of contest from those wherein
Maher PLACED an unimportant part
The lesson to be learned then is that
the boxing champions, like generals,
are born and not made. One victory
does not make a champion If it be
against a weaker opponent
There Is another point brought out
by this same contest and causes leading
up to it, When Maher and steve"
O'Donnell were matched COrbett de-
clared that ODonnell was every bit as
clever as himself. and also that Steve
was dead game, for" said Corbett, II
have tried him out myself Maher de-
feated O'Donnell in a single punch. and
on the strength of this victory was
presented by Corbett with the, cham
piOnship belt as one qualified to hold it.
Friends of Corbett and those easily in
fluenced by public display thought Ma
her the coming man. .,.
Thus did one victory and plenty of
free advertising make a champion The
result shows the weakness of such
paper made boxers. According to the
reports from the battle ground FitZ-
simmons outpointed Maher in every re-
spect True. Maher landed a few
blows, but to what effect? Every boxer
knows that in the whirlwind of lighting

THAT REILLY DEAL.
Terms Upon which Philadelphia Above,
Him 10 Go to Syracusc,


Him to TO to Syracuse.
Charles Reilly. esq. is the magnet
with which the Syracuse team, Of the
Eastern league, expects to reap q for
tune this year. Last year the Prince
tonian's principal occupation consisted
in keeping the Phillies' bench from be-
coming dusty, while the other players
were gathering in grounders and chas-
ing fly balls but as soon as another
club picked him out as a good man the
Philadelphia club discovered that he
was too valuable to be let go for the
mere asking.
Reilly and President Kuntsch. OF the
Syracuse IN. YD Eastern league club.
called at the Philadelphia clubs head
quarters yesterday and fixed up the
deal whereby Charles will wear SYRIA
cuse uniform and captain and manage
that team. The terms of the deal make
Reilly u regular $1,000 beauty" He
Is neither released nor given to Presi-
dent kuntSch. but is simply loaned
temporarily, with the understanding
that he Is precious freight and Is to be
handled with care.
For this display of generosity the
Phillies are to have the pick of the
Syracuse team at the close Of the sea-
son. and no player can be sold or traded
by President Kuntsch without the con-
sent of Philadelphia II is also stipu-
lated that Reilly shall be- returned to
the local club should his services be
required
1t will thus be seen that there IL a
big string attached to Reilly. by al
lowing him to join hands with II minor
league magnate the Phillies will lose
nothing, as they are well fixed for In
fieldcrs, and If they desire to call him
back to the home next season they can
do so. For this they not only will Sc
cure any "phenom" whom Reilly may
spring on an unsuspecting public, bun
all the other clubs must keep hands off
until the Phillies have had their say.
Both sides to the deal seemed pleased
yesterday at the outcome and Manager
Reilly, as he must now be called, feels
sure that his team will be heard from
after the Eastern league season starts.
