THE AUGUSTA HERALD.
LANGFORD FOUND
JEANETTE EASI
(BY TAD.)
NEW YORK Mr, S Langford, of
Boston, visted ns again lasi night and
broke into Smithereens Joe Jeanette's
hopes of a championship. Sam lias
been a hope busier for tho past year
arotind here, having cracked quite a
few, among them the hopes of Janie:
Barry, of Chicago; .lawn Willc, of
Chicago, and, Tony Ross, of Pennayi
vania.
Mr. Jeanette, however, having dis
ferent ideas than the aforesaid gen
tinman, had his manger send stories
broadcast, about his great punches,
his sturdy heart, and his iron jaw.
He told how he had Sbui hanging on
like a bad cold in their last go in Bos
ton. also told that Sam would rather
fight: a mad bull than this same Jean
ette, and then, that when they met,
no more would be heard of this same
Samuel.
They met last night In a six round
bout and if Mr. Jeanette Is breathing
easily today, he is a marvelous man.
Mr. Langford tipped him over In
the very first round with a left hand
er on his jaw, followed with a right
in the region of the solar plexus,
which caused Mr. Jeanettee's nose to
smack the floor with quite a sound.
He arose and was made to seek the
canvas on account of the frequent
visitations of Mr. Langford's gloves
about the ribs and kidneys.
At the close of the seeond round
Mr. Jeanette, who was looking at
some one in Ihe gallery, received a
slap on the jaw with this same left,
and, hunting for his corner at the bell,
started to climb over the ropes.
Again in tb P fifth round this Lang
ford person lifted up another left from
some plate or other and Mr. Jeanette
became top hea.v suddenly and Ids
back hit the floor such a whop that
may In the house thought he was fal
ling through the cellar. Mr. Jean
ette put up a grand exhibition of
gameness, but aside from that, little
can be said in his favor,
Ham was sadlf in need of work and
his little stomach began to make a
fuss after the very first round.
The whole fight ran be summed up
in a very few words Ham Langford is
a finished fighter, but was riot In the
best shape. Joe Jeanette, a tough
colored fellow who has drawn with
Johnson, Is a hard hitl.-r with his lert,
an awkward fellow to box with, and
one ho can lake a world of punish
ment.

TAPPTO SPEAK FOR
FLOOD SUFFERERS
ATLANTA, C,u lion Sidney Tapp,
j lecturer, author, philosopher, will
speak al the Grand opera house In
Macon on Frida.t night. September
j Uth, for Ihe benefit of the flood suf
furors at Augusta. Mr. Tapp, as Is
known, spoke recently at the Grand
opera house In Atlanta; In fact, lie
made two speeches recently, lnterrup
| Ilona at Ills firsi engagement having
forced him to desist, On the occa
sion of his second speech Mr. Tapp
was flanked by a body guard of both
firemen and policemen, ns Ihe relief
associations of both were given part
of the proceeds of the lecture. It Is
claimed by many that Mr. Tapp "turn
ed the tables” on his second audience,
as he gavp them a better talk than
Ills first appearance would lead them
to think they would get.
, Let li he understood, however, that
Mr, Tapp courts Interruptions inter
rnptlons of the right sort. Handouts,
both by mouth and hand, are his long
stills. For Instance, he does not care
how many questions and good natur\d
jibs are poked at him; he will lake
ol (hem. Neither does he care If hou
quels of flowers are thrown at him.
Hr draws the line al vegetables and
dead fruit, whleh some of his alleged
enemies might lip disposed to bring
with them, Mr Tapp's friends saw.
however, that lie had a square deal
during his last engagement arid, bless
your sweet soul, he poured some hot
shot Into the "Church Grafters.' His
speech at Macon, ns well as at other
Georgia points, as well as in the East,
will be along the same lines.
Speaking about the Easl. It should
he said In this connection that Mr.
Tapp is planning a vlr|| to Gotham.
That he will attract attention with
his high hat and imported olnlhes,
which he will lake with him, Mr
Tapp does not deny. Mr. Tapp also
| realizes that to use his own expres
J slon, he will he "fresh meat" for the
j cartoonists, but this he will not re
sent, ns he believes In the righteous
ness of his cruise, lie la making war
[on tho church grafters, and he will
keep It up, he declares, until he has
(exposed "the whole damnable lot of
fakirs, imposter* and others, who
J-rafi upon the churcheK." (Quotation
| from Tapp.)
