for a short time, nt loaM. The ndveut of n new champion nhv.i In Interesting,
,for tho funs nro ready nt nil time to full Into lino behind tho tmut recent tender.
(Tito fnct that Herman won from Kid Williams on n decision tnkes nwny nonin of
tho clamour, hut It must ho realized thnt thrco of tho Inst four tltlo lllta wcra
decided in thnt manner. Kllhnno outfought Alio Attell In twentv rounds, Welsh
outpointed Wllllo Itllclilo and now comes I'oto Itertnnn. .Jeii Wlllnrd hunched
out Johnson n,couplo of years tigti, which ends nil dispute In thnt division. How
ever, a tltlo Is n title, no matter whnt thoy say, no wo extend Rreellngs to Mr.
Herman, of New Orleans. Ho Is tho new boss of n new division, ns Williams
moved tho bantam limit lo IIS pounds beforo the match.
Present Crop of Champions Is a Poor One
IN LOOKING over tho present n-op of champions, meaning; Herman, Johnny
Kllbnno, Freddy Welsh, .Tack lirltton, Mlko Ulhbmm or Al McCoy, Jack Dillon
nnd Jess Wlllnrd, there i,ccms to bo little chance to enthuse. In tho otilrm days
When tho glorious .lawn I.. Hulllvtin was monarch of nil ho su'leyed, or later
Whon Cot bolt, rilzsltiimoiirt, Jeffrlea nnd Jack ,lohnon reigned, thero wns somo
thing to n, championship title. Wo would pet n thrill every tlmo ono of thoso
names wns mentioned, becauso they stood out hctd nnd shoulders nbnvo the others
In their class. And, moro than that, they were rcid to light nny of the nsph'hiR
fcandldates without holding out for exorbitant prices. Tm thousand dollars was
n fortuno then, but nowadays it wouldn't pity irnlnlnj expenses, Instead of KolnB
on tho Btngg or signing up as an added attraction with n circus, tlioy kept them
jeolven In shape by meeting nil coiners and offering a few hundred dollars to tho
,mon who fltnyed tho limit. John I.. rtitlllvnli, when he wns twenty-tlvo years old,
jmado n, nlno months tour of the country and knocked out tirty mnn wtthln four
rounds. True. John U had the punch and Eomo of the opponents were readv to
drop beforo they entered tho ring, but it must bo tomcmbcifd that the meat gladla
Itor hnd n wonderful reputation, and tho mere mention of his name turned tho
jutrongost Jaws Into glass. Is, thero n champion today who occupici that same
'position? la thero ono whoso namo li enough to make the others run for cover?
!Not Wlllnrd, or Al McCoy, or Mlko Utbbons. .luck Urltton. Freddy WcNh and tier
haps Herman. Otitsldo of tho latter, thoo chnmps are pestered to dentil with
challongcs uud spend most of their tlmo in dodging them.
Johnny Kilbane Is the Only Champ Who Deserves the Title
THE only present day champion who ranks with the heroes of yesterday la
Johnny Kilbane, tho featherweight champion. Kilbane Is In u class with John
pU, Terry JicGovern. .loo Wulcott, and Stanley KctcholU Ho hni met nil of tho
contenders In his class and his work won so good that tliero Is notw left to
dispute his claim. Ho has cleaned up tho featherweight division und now must
bnttlo lightweights If ho desires to keep busy. Kvcn tho llglitwelglils nro dodging
Ihlm. which proves that ho not only is respected, but also feared. Kllbnno can
mako 118 pounds nnd bo strong. He hnn offered to box Kieddy Welsh lit 135
pounds at 3 o'clock, which means that tho Kngludunnn would cuter tho ring weigh-lntM-to.
It seems strange that Kilbane cannot llnd opponents weighing from US
to 140, but It Is true. Jack Ilnnlon. matchmaker of tho Olympla Athletic Associa
tion, has been seeking n foo for the fenthoiwolght champion for the Inst month,
but no ono seems anxious to swap punches. Tho easy victory over (icorgo Chancy
evidently has caused tho others to run for cover.

Bhowa how ho can got down to such a low weight. He Is tho cleverest boxer wo
have seen for many a day and pulls some stunts that uro seldom seen In any ring.
Ono of tho tight fans In discussing Kilbnno's work tho other day said that Johnny
jievor docs tho same thing 'twice in his tights, snvo tho landing of a knockout
wallop. But unlebs uomo new opponent looms up. Kilbane will bo forced to rotlre,
tor ho vlrtuully has fought himself out of a Job.
Meanwhile Other Champs Rake in the Kale
AS FOR the other champions, thoy nro raking In tho money nnd sidestepping
A tough opponents at tho snmo tlmo. NO doubt Teto Herman la swamped with
offers to meet tho leading bantams, but if ho plays according to form ho will disre
gard nil challenges for u tlmo and go on tho stage. It is much easier and moro
profltablo to bo an actor than a fighter.
