race or creed. They are Jlck John
son. Sam Langford. Joe Jeannette and
Sam McVey. These four men are the
leading characters in the heavyweight
division of pugilism. In the common
commercial parlance We would say
they have cornered the market.
Jack johnson. the acknowledged
heavyweight champion pugilist of the
world. is the center Of attraction at
the present time in view of the fact
that he is matched to fight Jim Flynn
some time in July. Flynn Is said to be
the champions most formidable white
opponent who has the nerve to sign
articles of agreement to face Johnson
in the ring.
Jack Johnson was the first Of his
class among the colored lighters to
appear upon the scene after the pass
Ing of Peter Jackson. His career ns q
prizefighter began in Chicago in 1899
He has had most interesting career.
His Dhy strength. coupled with his
knowledge. experience and skill. makes
all aspirin nts for the heavyweight
championship title stand in fear OF
him. He is yet young. ambitious. art
ful and fearless. II he continues TO
use good common sense he will long
be the worlds champion. the pride Of
his race in this particular and the Idol
of sporting men the world over.
OF the other three 1t may be said In
brief that Langford received his first
lessons In boxing from Jim Walsh in
1901 and has been In the fighting arena
rpI a
scene two years later. and In 1904 Joe
Jennnette offered himself AS n fit sub
ject to receive punishment from fstic
encounters. Johnson. Langford and
Jeannette. the notable big trio. have
fought each other many times. Sam
McVey for some reason has resided In
Paris and other parts Of Europe most
of the time.
summary of events In which the
four men have taken part reduced to
common denominntor would read thus:
Jeannette and Johnson have battled
seven times Joe won once on foul.
and lack won one decision. One other
fight was n draw. and no decisions
were rendered In the other FIVE. John
son has boxed McVey twice. He beat
him on bOtn occaslons' Je"hhetle '"c'

Jeanette won the decision in the next
one over twenty round course. The
third contest lasted ffty-one rounds

after they fought thirty rounds. The
