PREDICTING DIXON's DEFEAT.

-
Eddie Pierce's Friends Confident He Will
Do the Colored Champion.
/ The friends of Eddie Pierce, who is
matched to meet George Dixon, the cafe
al lait c~omplexioned champion of Bos-
ton, at the Coney Island Athletic Club,
on Monday night, are confident that
Dixon Ia about TO meet his Waterloo.
They say that the mulatto has "gone
back" decidedly during the past W
years, aud hat the constant hard work
that he has been doing has so impaired
his powers mat he is no longer the
midget phenomenon he was when he de-
feated Nuuc Wallace of England. Abe
Willis of Australia aud Cal Mccarthy Of
America.
Pierce, they assert, is young. strong,
temperate and courageous. He Is nearly,
II not quite, as clever ~ Dixon as nini-
bic in his movements as a panther aud q
verltable tiger In battle. His stamina
has never been weakened by alcoholic or
other excuses, aud in a bruising con-
test these qualities are sure to operate TO
his advantage. Moreover. he is ambI-
tions 10 a degrees aud brainy as well. He
Knows That a victory over the gallant
little mulatto who has so long held the
worlds championship means fortune, as
well as fame, to him. aud he will spare
10 effort to wrest the sceptre from his
grasp.
This does not worry the friends of
Dixon and they are confident their man
will win.

fifty miles. The start was made from
Cowes, Isle of Wight. aud the yachts
sailed twice to aud around the Warner

Ing gun was fred at ten O'Clock the Sa-
tanira aud Valkyris were well un-
der way and they practically crossed the
line together. The American yacht
Navahoe followed them closely. and she,
10 turn. was followed close up by the
Calluha. A strong westerly wind was
blowing and constantly gaining IN forcs.
Just after the start it gained a sudden ac-
ceasion OF strength aud blew u whole
gale.
The N .vahoe got the best position to
windward and retained this advantage
until Leep Shoal was reached. AT this
poiht the observers on shore saw her
suddenly keel over until her rail WAS we'll
under, aud every body thought she was
going 10 turn completely over. Her main
sheet was laid out quickly aud she soon
righted. She made u second attempt to
catch up with the leaders. hut her main
sail fell. 1t 10 learned that the
breaking of the jaws of her gaf
was the cause Of the mainsail's
dropping. After a little delay aud
apparently much excitement on board,

much elated at the poor showing of the

The Calluna also met with an accident.
She fouled the steam yacht Cleopatra
shortly after passing Deep Shout, aud
broke her gaff aud tore her mainsail.
She was, therefore compelled to give up
the contest.
