LONDON, June 27.-The international
glove fight between George Dixon, the
colored bantam-weight champion Of
America, and Nunc Wallace, the ban
tam-weight champion of England, took
place at the Pelican Club this evening.
The match was for the bantam-weight
championship of the world and purse
of 9500. Wallace retired in the nine
teenth round and Dixon was declared
the victor.
Wallace led off in the first round, ap-
pearing to considerable advantage. In
tense interest was manifested, and
he was loudly cheered by his
friends and received many signs of
encouragement. In the second he
adopted ducking tactics, but his claims
of foul were not allowed. In the third
round Wallace appeared tagged out, and
Dixon came to the front to great ad-
vantage. In the succeeding inning the
American forced the fighting. From
this up to the tenth there was no great
display of pugilistic skill, but in the
tenth Wallace received a knock-down
blow and blood flowed from him pretty
freely. He came to time, however,
promptly at the call, though his weak
ness was plainly apparent. In each Of
the succeeding rounds up to the eight
eenth Dixon fought the Englishman all
around the ring. At the call Wallace
was in his corner, but had been SO badly
used up that he was obliged to give up
the fight.

PITTsBURG, June 27.-The inter-
national Sunday school convention
this morning decided that the second
worlds and seventh triennial inter-
national Sunday school conventions
should be held together at St. Louis in
1898.
AT the afternoon session Miss Willard,
president of the w. G.. r. o., spoke in
support of the proposition to set apart
four Sundays of each year to be devoted
to the teaching of temperance in the
Sabbath schools, the international COM
mittee to furnish appropriate lessons.
After a lengthy discussion an amend
ment by G. f. Jacob, chairman of the
international executive committee, was
adopted. 1t says, i'll part ''In select
ing the lessons for the year
1892, the lesson committee found
in the course of one quarter
a suitable temperance lesson, and there
fore they made the lesson for the thir-
teenth Sunday missionary lesson. In
another quarter for the same year they
found in the regular course suitable
missionary lesson; therefore, for the
thirteenth Sunday of that quarter they
have given temperance lesson. For
two quarters this year they have Sc
lected a temperance lesson and a mis-
sionary lesson, leaving it optional
with the schools to use either.
The committee cannot say in advance
just what lessons will occur in any year,
but think it possible that the selection
for the other years may be like the
selection for '92 The lesson committee
for Great Britain urged that the COM
mittee continue to have optional tenn
perance lessons, stating that if only tenn
perance lesson is selected many schools
would not use it, but would select other
lessons and the plan would be impaired.
The executive committee recommends
that the convention approve the action
of the lesson committee, as indicated in
selecting the lessons, and for the recon-
mendation to the publishers of lesson
helps throughout the United States and
Canada to make notes upon the temper
ance lessons following, as upon other
lessons of the quarter, and also empha-
sizing the subject of temperance in the
lessons in the regular course where it
can be suitably done"
After several interesting addresses the
final adjournment was had.

upon a rough estimate being made He
further advised them to ask for an even
two hundred acres.

New LONDON, Conn.,, June 27.-As
usual, great throngs Of people congre-
gated today to see the annual four-mile
/. straight-away eight-oared shell race, be-
tween the. Yale and Harvard crews.
Yale won by three and half lengths, in
vi 20; Harvard's 8 time was 21 80. This
is Yale's fifth successive victory, and the
record now stands in four-mile races:
Yale, 9; Harvard, 6. For three miles
the race was one of the finest struggles
ever seen on the Thames course.
At no time in that distance was either
crew able to get a decisive lead, and dur
ing that time Harvard had slight lead.
Twice Yale, however, by grand squirting
and staying qualities, quickly recovered
its lost position by a small margin.
After passing the third mile flag Har-
wards stroke seemed to lose some of its
effectiveness, which, with perceptible
roll to their shell, and three or four

keeping up their long, steady swing with
line and resting their oars without the

clearly the effects of their determined
efforts.

was rowed in the dark and proved
rather unsatisfactory affair. The race
was two miles, and the referee gave it to
Columbia by half length, their time
being 10 :54. In the last half mile, it is
stated, steamer ran across the bow of
the Harvard boat so near as to interfere
with their work.
