DIXON LOSES DECISION.
hen Jordan of England Held to Have
Bested Him.

Bested Him.
New York, July ben Jordan of Eng
land after lighting twenty-five hard
rounds with George Dixon, the colored
champion, was awarded the honors by
Referee Charley White tonight at the
Lenox Athletic Club.
Both boys fought well, and there was lit
tie to choose between them. If anything,
Dixon seemed TO have somewhat the better
of the entire bout. and was decidedly
stronger and more effective than when he
met Eddie Santry of Chicago a few weeks
ago in the same ring.
Jordan had a shade the better of his OPP
ponent In regard to hight and reach, and
ii was announced that he weighed 122
pounds, while Dixon turned the scales at
1171a pounds.
Dixon did the leading, but unlike many
of those who had previously met the lit
tie colored fighter, Jordan went TO him
and mixed it up all the time. Several
times Jordan used his elbow at close quar-
ters, but the referee contented himself
with cautionng the Brtisher. Once or
twice Jordan hit Dixon rather low on the
body, but George made no protest Many
of those who watched the work of both
thought a draw would have been a very
satisfactory decision.

The Government sends to the agency
agriculturiStS, who are supposed to
teach the Indians farming. These men
are mostly, however, chosen, so Bishop
Gilbert says, more for their knowledge
of politics than for their ability as farm
ers. They stay few years on the
reservation and then go back to the
city, but not so poor as they came.
The Indian knows thing or two, and
when he sees the agents hired with his
own money, which he would just as
soon have the spending of himself, driv-

angry. Civil service was expected to
make all this better, but the spoils at

WOULD ESTABLISH A
SCHOOL OF DAIRYING
VARIOUS SUBJECTS CONSIDERED
BY THE BUTTER-MAKERs
Refrigerating Machinery Necessity
to the Success of the Creameries.
Old Ways Do Not Pay.

A number of very interesting papers
were read yesterday at the second ses-
sion of the fifth annual convention of
the California Dairy Association, meet
ing in the Chamber of Commerce rooms.
One by George e. Peoples was on the
subject of "Refrigerating." He said that
refrigerating machines are absolutely
necessary in the creameries, especially
in the hot valleys of the State. The
necessity comes from the high standard
of goods that the people have come to de-
mand. The machine process permits a
direct application of ice does not. and
the. effect of the latter is greater loss
of fat.
George w Church of Sonoma discussed
the advantages of silage for milk pro-
duction. THE Manufacture of Brick
Cheese" was the subject of a paper read
by Charles A. Fleweger. He told how
the article was made, and stated that 1t
would be profitable to the dairymen OF
this State to make. He said that large
quantities are shipped into this State
son started a long discussion by his paper
on Dairy Education and Dairy Schools"
He stated that in the East dairy educa-
ton has been very profitable to the COM
munities in which knowledge on these
lines is impaired In over thirty of the
States experimental dairy schools have
universities. He hopes that the matter
will be brought to the attention of the
regents of the university. with view of
having such an institution established in
connection with the Berkeley college. He
suggested that the convention pass a res
olution calling upon the regents to con-
slider the matter, and have such q
school established If possible.
Colonel E. A. Denicke, one of the re-
gents, said that the board of which he
is q member is heartily in accord with
the dairy interests, and he believed that
If some of those interested in the States
Improvement could be made to appreciate
the benefits of such an institution the
means would be furnished for equipping

MORE SMOOTH PAVEMENTs.
Merchants Association Working for
More improvements Downtown.

L. NJ. King. superintendent of the street
department of the Merchants Associa-
ton, who has just returned from the
East, is very much gratifed over the
progress made IN street improvement in
the downtown thoroughfares All of this
work was started by the associations eff
forts before he left. The last block to fall
into line is Suffer street, between Kearny
and Grant avenue, which is to be paved
with bitumen In the next block, be-
tween Grant avenue and Stockton street,
half of the property owners have sgnifled
their willingness to stand the expense of
having the old round cobbles removed and
basalt pavement put on a concrete foun-
dalton substituted. The grade forbids a
bitumen pavement, but the one proposed
will serve we'll. The surface will be al
most even, and the cracks between the
blocks being filled with asphalt or tar Will
make 1T modern roadway, smooth and
clean.
The efforts of the association are being
directed toward Sixth street, the desire
being to have a bitunen pavement laid
from Market street to Folsom This will
give a smooth roadway from we'll down
Market street to the Mission, via Sixth
street, for light wagons and bicycles. A
large number of the property owners
along Sixth street have already signed for
the Improvement, and the belief is that
by making this the smooth avenue be
tween downtown and the Mission II will
increase the Importance of the retail bust
ness there In the near future California
street, between Montgomery and kearny,
will be paved with wooden blocks, the
same as the street opposite the Phelan
building The grade is too steep for bit
umen, and the bankers in the block wish
to have a noiseless pavement. PROBABLY
the worst block in the city is the one
between Battery and Sansome streets, on
Clay. 1t is mass of hummocks and
chuckholes and the fruit and vegetables
that find their way into the cutters make
the place malodorous as well as unsfghtly.
bitumen pavement is to be laid there.
most of the property owners having
the block will be washed every day or so.
