SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Necessity of Opening Cherry Street
Efforts of Councilman Cojrna
io That Direction.
Councilman Coyne's effort to have
Cherry street opened across the Dela
ware and Hudson railroad tracks to
South Washington avenue is regarded
by all familiar with the change it would
bring about, as an urgent necessity. Fig
street could then be abandoned as far
as vehicles are concerned. At most it
is a death trap to use in getting from
Cedar to South Washington avenue.
Cherry street is naturally the best grad
ed street In the Twentieth ward and
that It has remained excluded so long,
while such uneven streets as tlenet, Fig
and Palm are used, Is a matter of sur
prise. "
There ought to be at least one good
street -in the ward, and Cherry can be
made that for the least cost, fur It pos
sesses the most natural advantages. Mr.
Coyne's labor in this behalf is backed
by the South Side board of trade, and
the taxpayers or the ward, aud if coun
cils do not take the light step there will
be some very determined protest.

SOME INSIDE HISTORY.
Manor Was Rushed to tho Front, Not for
What Ho Had Done, but for What It Was
Hoped 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 it was hoped that he might
accomplish. He was made the willing
tool ot those who disliked Fitzsimmone
as well as for the protection of anoth
er. It was another of those cases where
a 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
ber of cases of this kind, and yet, sing
ularly enough, instances are rare
wherein a 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 In a different
sort of contest from those wherein
Muher plared 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 Corbet t de
dared that O'Donnell was every bit as
clever as himself, and also that Steve
was dead game, "for," said Corbet t, "I
have tried Iiim out myself." Muher de
feated t'Domifll In a single punch, and
on the strength of this victory was
presented by Corbett with the: chnm
ploliship belt as one qlialilled to hold it.
Friends of Corbett and those easily In
fluenced by public dh'pluy thought Ma
her the comlne man.
Thus did one victory und 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 Fltz
slmmons outpointed Maher In every re
spect. True, .Muher landed a few
blows, but to what effect'.' Every boxer
knows that In the whirlwind of lighting

both men are apt to be struck, and It Is
not so clear that, having tested the
force of Muher's blows, Fltzslmmons
was willing to take a few chances In
order to draw his opponent out.
THAT K I'l 1.1. Y DEAL.
Terms I'pon Which Philadelphia Allowed
Ilim to Uo to Syracuse
Charles Rellly. esq.. Is the magnet
with which the Syracuse team, of the
Eastern league, expects to reap a for
tune this year. Last year the Piince
tonian's principal occupation consisted
in keeping the Phillies' bench from be
coming dusty, while the other players
were gathering in grounders and chus
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.
Rellly and President Kuntsch. of the
Syracuse (N. Y.) Eastern league club,
called ut the Philadelphia club's heud
quarters yesterduy and fixed up the
deal whereby Charles will wear a Syra
cuse uniform and captain und manage
that team. The terms of the deal make
Rellly a regular "$10,000 beauty." He
Is neither releused nor given to Presi
dent Kuntsch, but is simply limned
temporarily, with the understanding
that he Is precious freight aud 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. It is ulso stipu
lated that Itellly shall be returned to
the local club should his services be
required.
It will thus be seen that there is a
big string uttuched to Rellly. i'y al
lowing him to Join hands with u minor
league magnate the Phillies will lose
nothing, us they are well fixed for In
llelilers, nnd If they desire to cull him
back to the homo next season they can
do so. For this they not only will se
cure any "phenom" whom Rellly muy
spring on an unsuspecting public, bin
all the other clubs must keep hands off
until the Phillies have had their say.
Both sides to the ileal seemed pleased
yesterday at the outcome, and Manager
Rellly, as he must now- be culled, feels
sure that his team will be heard from
after the Eastern league season sturts.

At a meeting of the executive committee
of the national eyrie board of trade, held
recently. It was decided to sanction no
local cycle shows to be held after .March
31 for the Piisulnx year, on account of the
many protests which have been received
from the cycle trade generally, that It Is
Interfering with their spring business.
There has been considerable comment on
the "bicycle face," "bicycle hump," "bicy
cle feet," etc., etc., hut the latest is the
"bicycle talk." There are more people
atlllcted with the latter malady than all
of the others. The "bicycle talk" has be
come prevalent in every community of this
country, and, what is more alarming, It
is very contagious. Cycle Topics.
The announcement that K. C. lluld, the
class B champion of has been en

Indicates that the manufacturers will sup
port profcslsonnl racing, since class B Is
out of existence. A large number of rid
ers who were In class H last year are de
sirous of riding for cash prizes, and are
now seeking engagements with manufac
turers. A drop-frame bicycle was made recently
that brought I8o0. It was sold to an Eng
lish gentleman, who wished it as a present
for his wife. The frame- and forks are
richly overlaid with silver open work: the
Ivory handles are decorated with silver,
and Jade knobs at the ends. Parts of the
equipment are a solid silver cyclometer, a
silver watch and bell, and a solid silver

A member of Stearns team took his first

"So that's the sextuplet! It is the smooth

I want to ride a good fast clip. I supuose
we made the mile In 3.50 that time." Wnen
Informed that the wheel had carried him
nt a 2.15 gait he would not credit the truth
bf the remark. He claimed that there
was so little effort In pedaling and yn
slowly did he move his limbs, that it
seemed Impossible to cover the ground In
such lively fashion. He has ridden under
