Description of Flynn-Langford Fight
9
by Spectator Tale of Cold, De
liberate Slaughter by Black Gorilla
ef His Smaller White Victim.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., March 19.
A local sporting writer hero gives
the following graphic account of the
finish of the Flyun-Langford fight
and the actions of the men engaged
in the struggle.
"The Vernon prizefight arena was
the scene Thursduy of a gory hor
ror. This Italian hoy, Chiariglion,
who fights under the Irish name of
Jim Flynn, was put into the ring
with n negro who, in physinue, is u
shaven gorilla. It was norriblc,
sickening. The writer saw an old
Californinn with his head in his hand
and his hat before his face.
"I have seen Mexicans cut each
other into ribbons with Bowie
knivesj" he said, "but this is too
stro.ng for me."
"It wasn't hot, passionate blood
letting it was cold, deliberate
slaughter. Langford, the gorilla
man, would put his left hand against
the white man's bleeding face and
push bim away to arm's length, his
little red pig eyes running critically
over the maimed white body a con
noisseur selecting a vital spot. Then
his fists would drive in with a crnsh.
The impact of the blows was so ter
rific that they could be heard all
over the big pavilion.
"Flynn fought with the helpless
ness and the ferocity of a wounded
liou. Sometimes ho seemed to land
heavily, but the fight was pitifully
unequal. The white boy was nn
awkward, savage blunderer trying
to defend himself against the skill
and strength of n giant. Langford
has tho legs, arms, tho immense
chest, the little red eyes that shift
with the restlesneps of the jungle.
Ho walks with the rocking step of
tho jungle animal ready to leap in
any direction. Fighting is an in
stinctive with him as with his cave
men ancestors. Langford was too
primitive for Signor Chiariglion,
Facing one of the white boy's wild
est rushos, Langford calmly brushed
him out of tho way and enjoyed n
good spit to clear his throat.
"Tho end waB magnificent. With
one last burst of desperation Flynn
flew at the negro, rushing him tp the
ropos and boating at him frantically
with both fists.
"Langford fell back, chuckling
with laughlor. Shoving FJynn away
with both hands, he puckered up his
moulli and openod his eyes wido as
ono makes faces at a child.
"'Say, what's yo' tryin' to do?' ho
said,
you fight V snarled Flyii, lashing out
with his fists.
"Langford looked over the white
man's shoulders down at tho sport
ing reporUn.
'"I'm going to get him in a min
ute,' he said. Almost involuntarily
Flynn tunied his head one fatal in
stant to see who Langford was talk
ing to. A black arm shot to the
white man's blood-smeared jaw. He
staggered back and Set himself with
lowered, anxious eyes, peering out
like a man looking into some hidden
cave. Like a flash Langford struck
him full on the point of the chin.
"The negro did not wnit to see
what would happen. As tiie blow
landed, he turned and walked away,
u little smile of amusement ou hi
face. He leaned over the ropes and
shook hands with one of the sport
ing reporters, his bnck to the pitiful
scene where 7000 people were star
ing with horrified fascination. Flynn,
crumbling at the knees, like a man
who has been shot, took a few drun
ken steps forward and fell flat' on
his face.
"As the referee stood counting him
out Flynn make one think of nn an
imal which had been shot to death.
His torn face was ashen. His eyes
were dull and glazed, the blood pout
ig out of his mouth in a little
stream that trickled over tho white
canvas.
"'OutS' yelled the roforeo into his
ears. Flynn looked up dully with u
sort of reproach on his fuce, and
got weakly to his feet, where he
stood swaying, with u faraway look
in his eyes like a man coming out
of the influence of uu anesthetic.
"Langford came across the ring
with real pity in his face and held
out his hand. At the sight of the
terrible black figure before him u
tiny ray of consciousnefs filtered
through the white boy's fuddled
brain. Ho thought the fight was
still on and put up his fists.
"Langford laughed and dodged be
hind tho referee as they dragged
Flynn to his cornor. He fell uncon
scious into his chuir, his bloated,
maimed face fulling against the
l -- ! 1.1 -1! 9P 1
Bweaij Hiiyuiuer in one oi ins sec
onds. They sprayed water in his
face and fanned him and waved am
monia under his nose. Ho came to
with a gasp and tried to get up.
"'Why did tho fight stop?' hi'
asked thickly. Then the light went
out of his eyes and he fell back
again, a dead, inert thing. Half a
dozeu times, as tho ammonia
brought him to, ho tried to got up
and fight agnin, querolously wanting
to know why tho fight had stopped.
At last they got him ,to Ids dressing
ropm and finally into a carriage,
nis appearance was too bloody and
torn to bo described in polito soci
ety. "Beyond nn old wound out open
over one eye, Langford was un
hurt." , NOTICE,
