MORAN LIKE CORBETT.
May Fool Sporting Critics-GentIe-
 man Jim Fooled the Public.

About twenty-two years ago Jim Corbett was the butt of every funny man in the world. They laugh to think that the nice, neat young man daring to get into the ring with the then terror of all fighters, John L. Sullivan.
 But Jim Corbett had the courage of his convictions. He believed he was the master of the old warrior, who was known wherever the English language was spoken. He let the sporting world have it's little gigle which was per- sistent enough to discourage any man with less heart than did Gentleman Jih' have.
 The story of that fight is history, Jim Corbett had the last laugh. The sport world was taught a lesson that time, but is was so far in the long ago that it has been forgotten.
 Now there Is another big laugh echo- ing around the world Frank Moran is. the cause of this one. How dare he measure his ability with the big champion, Jack Johnson? they are asking every place. Many take it as just little plan for Moran to gather what little money he can out of it. Few, If any. take it seriously.
 But they should. Moran is prob ably as logical a candidate for a bat tie for the crown as any man in the world, not even excepting Gunboat Smith. Moran IS a nSnter WlCn d head. He has an excellent chance of beating the big black. If he didn't have an even one he would not have considered the match. When he says '1'lI win" he means every word Of 1t. He knows Johnson. has studied his way of fighting, and has seen him in action many times. Besides, he saw him in his last fight. and right there it was that Moran made up his mind that he could beat the champion. That's why the match was arranged.
 Moran Is to be encouraged rather than dissuaded and ridiculed in his attempt to down the Reno hero. Of course if he wins there will be many there with the old AI-told-you- stuff It will be fine stuffing in their ears to shut out the laugh Moran will have.
 Just remember how the dope was upset in 1892 by Jim Corbett, and re- member, also, that nothing is inn possible in the uncertain world of sport.
