' Fair Hold, and no favor, and may the bent man win" Ih a ring adage that Ih believed in, indorsed and followed by every truo sportsman. Fortunately, thtH adago Ii'ir been fol lowed out to thu letter in all thu uonteHta under thu auHilces of thu now promi nent athletic cluba of tlilw country. It wan thu spirit of fair play that prevailed at all thu conteHtH in the Now Orleans clubs, thu Coney Island club and thu lloby club that Iiiih brought puiltflm up to itH preHent high plane. There Iiiir been no occasion for any pugilist to complain that ho has received thu worst of it in any of thoughts that havo taken place at any of thu clubs mentioned. Thu least wabble from thu straight and narrow path nowadays is enough to bring ruin to thu transgressors. Thero was Bomu irregularity in tho JtiekBon Corbott light. Thero is no doubt that the otllcials of tho California club, under whoso auspiccB it occurred, wanted to see Corbott defeated. Tho Californian got a shade tho worst of it at their hands, and this detlection from siHirtsmanliko conduct caused tho club to sink into obscurity. Only tho veteran contingent of tho present immense- army of lovers of tho game know how often the championship has been decided in yearB gone by, not by tho fists of the principals in tho ring, but 'by tho clubs, guns and bull-dozing tactics of plug-uglies and shoilder-hit-tors at tho ring sido, remarks a sporting authority. They can go back to tho time whon championship battles were decided on tho turf with tho "raw uns" and with no sort of polico protection; when anybody who attended took long chances of losing his jweket-book or his life at tho ring-side ut tho hands of tho ritlratr and tdigh element who went "to see that tho best man won" always pro viding that their man was thu best man. Then tho cry of the pluggerB and heel ers wbb: "Save tho monoy at all haz ards. If not in one way thon in an other." Their motto was win if you can; if you can't, got a draw, and if a draw is out of thu question, break up thu light in a wrangle. In tho dark days of tho ring many a good man was robbed of a justly-earned victory by reason of tho fact that tho bulk of tho monoy and tho Bontiluent of tho crowd was with the other amn. Even tho annals of championship lights has been smirched by victories won by skulluuggery and Btrong arm methods. You don't havo to go very far back into ring history or very far from Cincinnati to Hud tho sceno of one of the most disgraceful robberies that over dis graced pugilism. Tho tight between Joo Gosh and Tom Allen, in 1877, which was fought in two rings in Kenton and Boone counties, Kentucky, not twenty miles from Cincinnati is a case in point. Followors of tho ring who saw that bat tin know that Tom Allon novor had a chance to win. Tho gang had Goss slated to win, and win ho must; if not by fair means, then by foul. Although Allen had Goss "dono to a turn,' ho was 'robbed of thu tight, and Joo Goss bo- camo champion. Lot us hope for tho sako of tho future of pugilism that thero will bo nothing thrown in tho way of tho coming light being decided on its merits. Lot it bo conducted as honestly and fairly as have tho 'Olympic, Coney Island and Itaby fights. Both men must go into tho ring on an equal basis. No obstacle must bo thrown in Mitchell's way simply bocauso ho is a foreigner. Honorable dofeat is far more creditable than dishonorable victory. If Charley Mitchell is a better man than Jim Corbott ho should have a chance to show it. If Corbott can whip Mitchell is a fair, stand-up tight uo out sido intluonces or questionable and dis honorable tactics must bo permitted to prevent tho mill reaching an honest Is sue. Tho sporting public want tho best man to win, and they will not havo any thing olso. Victory won by the bull dozing routo will raise such a storm of indignation that it won't bo vory healthy for tho promoters. It hns been intimated that Mitchell is surrounding himself with men with Ban- guinary and graveyard records with tho hopo that, should a chance present it self, these men will como to tho front and browbeat and intimidate Corbett's follows, I cars on this score aru prob- VliK tri'nlllwlli.aa Tl,,f Af nai.k.ii. .. whom these shotB are aimed, is one of vtho moBt pleasant-spoken and mild-man nered men in tho sporting fraternity. I havo met him at every important prize light 'thnt him boon fought in tho past live years. I havo novor seen him take au unfair advantage or ask a shade tho jat ot it. Ho was Kilrain'B time-keeper wiion Hiillivun whipped tho Baltimore man, and lie was one of Denver Smith's conds when ho whipped Joo Goddard, thu Barrier champion. Masterson will bet his money, and 1 never know him to ask more than an even break for it. At least, I havo found him that way in all tho other tlstic engagements. The Den ver man is a warm, personal friend of Charlie Mitchell. I know hu woidd llku to see Mitchell win, but ho would sinree ly want to see him whip thu American except in au honest, upright way. Talk of strong arm methods takes one back to the historical tight between John C, Heeman, tho Beulcia boy, and Tom Sayers, the best man In all England. In that tight America was robbed of a just ly earned and honestly-won champion ship, and worst of all it was' an Ameri can that helped to rob his own country of the coveted title. When lleenan had Sayers all but done, a New Yorker, so tho story goes, cut the ropes of tho ring and broke up the light in a row. It would be gall and wormwood, indeed, if history repeated itself and another American could bo found so low, so mean and so lost to all sense of patriotic pride, that he would lend himself to a plan to help Mitchell wrest tho championship from Corbet t in any other than an hon orable way. Tho Duval club is in its infancy. This b its inaugural tight. It would be dis astrous to tho clubs future if thero was any unsportmanllko conduct allowed in tho ring or at tho ring sido. It behooves tho management of tho club to erect safeguards against any bulldozing tac tics by engaging a strong polico foro to stop any outbreak on thu part of tho pluggors on either side, THE FIGHTERS COMPilRED. Charley Mitchell and Jim Corbott are still in training in Florida and the time for their meeting is fast drawing nigh. Many ideas hnvo undoubtedly been ad vanced as to the outcome ot tho coming engagement. Of courso public opinion fuvors Corbott. Two reasons inuy bo given for this decided opinion as to tho result of tho h-ittlo. Tho lirst is because he has vanquished the supposed un conquerable Sullivan, and the second I ascribe to patriotism, says a writer in Sortiii(j AY'HTi. Many a sporting man who knows both contestants, may, however, halt and hesitate. After duo deliberation, ho will undoubtedly come to a conclu sion that it is no unoven match. I happen to bo acquainted with both contestants. Both aro endowed witli all tho requisites of champion pugilists-in telligence, strength, science, pluck and stamina. If both bo in superb condition on tho day of tho contest the world will hear of no "walk over" for either manunless au unlooked for blow, early in tho contest, which is apt to come from cither, staggors his oppo nent's chances. I have scon Corbott in three of his most memorablo battles to wit: His tight with Choynski on tho bargo near Bencciu. His contest to a draw with Jackson at the California club, and also his last and greatest contest with tho thon world's champion. From an honest and unprejudiced standpoint, I do not hesitate to suy: Choynski gave him in every way a harder buttle than Sullivan. Corbott, if ho will speak honestly, although I know ho hus no love for Choynski, will toll you tho same. Joo made Corbott prove to tho world what kind ot stun" ho was made of. Ho is undoubtedly chock full ot grit. His draw with Jackson has proven his science and stamina. He is undoubtedly the man to keep tho world's championship on this side of the "pond" if any one can. Mitchell has a record, of which in pugilistic circles ho may bo proud. He met tho Champion Sullivan in his pal miest days, not when debauchery and ago had worked destructfon. Ho was bested at Madison Square Garden, N. Y but many of Sullivan's closest friends know how near he (Sullivan) camo to losing his reputation at Chantilly, Franco. I heard Duncan Harrison, a close friend of Sullivan's on ono occasion suy: He would make an ullldavit that Sullivan's backer had to put up over two thousand dollars in cold cash to tho Mitchell pooplo to make tho light a draw. Sullivan was a much bettor man in thoso days, than when Corbott met him, oven admittingthe dilTcrent rules und circumstances under which tho bat tle occured. Mitchell is one of tho groatest "thinkers" in a ring I havo over mot. He is full of tricks. I do not mean to infer that ho will make a de liberate foul but that he has ring tac tics and advantages down to such a study that ho has on more than one oc casion won tights by his superior gener alship, Ills science and physical prowess can not be doubted. His courage should not bo questioned for he novor feared to meet Sullivan when he was whipping the world. I did doubt it on one occa sion when little Jack Dempsoy, pulled out his "sack" in the Baldwin hotel, San Francisco, and otTered to tfo out and light Mitchell for fun or marbles. Mitch oil refused. At that time wo all thought him a coward. Be was a sensible man. Dempsoy was a lightweight and ho a heavyweight, He had a reputation to lose and nothing to gain by whipping Demp soy. Besides Dempsoy was America's prido in thoso days, and it Mitchell had whipped him I would not have given two cents for Mitchell's life. He was indeed sensible. It is my linn belief that Mitchell will put up a light, that will surprise not only Corbet t but the whole world. Unless Corbet t gets right in from the start and makes tho light short ami de cisive, he will never win from Mitchell. He will give him a closer draw than Pe ter Jackson. MEN'S FASHIONS. Undressed kid gloves are swell. Many light-colored materials will bo worn in the spring. Tan shoes will be the thing more than ever. Bed continues to he opular In neck wear. The spring derby hat will be very prominent. Alpines are on the wane. Light-colored overcoats aro not in it at all this winter. Thero is a tendency to cut trousers somewhat larger, and it will become very manifest In tho spring. Creases in trousers continue to bo popular. Don't crease your cults. It is uo long er tho fad. If your wear a silk hat- which you shoHld do in the evening if you want to bo swell -Bee that It Ib very bell Bhaped. Shoes will be somewhat more pointed in the spring. The garment known as a spring over coat Is no longer in opulur favor. In Chicago they wear a silk hat with a sack coat and tan shoes. Linen collars with turn down tips are very stylish. Tho tall of tho frock coat for spring will reach to tho knees. "I'm afraid," said Mr. Muggles to his nephow, "that you aro giving altogether too. much attention to the doings of prize lighters." "Well," admitted the young man, "I do enjoy reading about them." "I am Borry to boo it. Prizo lighting is brutish and degrading. In an age like this, when thero aro so many enor mouB problems of science and civiliza tion to solve, it is wrong for any man to give his mental energies to the consider ation of things like this, which aro not enly low in themselves, but demoralizing in their influences." Iho old gentleman took a long breath und glared. "Still ono can t help being interested." "You ought to help it. It's your bus iness to help it." "But I've hud it forced on my atten tion," was the apologetic reply. "Tho book-keeper at our store wants to bet that Mitchell will whip Corbott." "Wants to bet that Mitchell will Great Scott! You took him up didn't you? Why, look at Corbott's reach. Ho can pull tho hairs out of Mitchell's eye brows without getting touched. And if Mitchell tries to turn tho tight into a sprinting match, Corbett'll bo right with him, und chase him lap for lap till ho runs him down same as a dog would a rabbit. And that man wants to bet on Mitchell! How much did' you take of itY" "Why, I haven't bet anything as yet." "Haven't bet? Hero, take your hat and coat and hunt him up. Bet him all you've got, and thou if he's still game, tako $50 worth for me. Don't loso a minute, because ho might change his mind." TH SICK HEALED, WEAK MADE STRONG.
