DIXON TO BOX
COCkNEY COHEN
Last Battle in England for the
COI0red Featherweight
Comes Off Tonight

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller.)
NEW YORK, Jan. ia dispatch
from London says George Dixon, the
ex- -featherweight champion, who has
been boxing in England for the past
year and showing much of his old-tinie
speed and cleverness, is to meet Cock
ney Cohen at Newcastle tonight. They
are to go 15 rounds at 122 pounds. The
two recently fought ten rounds to a
draw Tonight's bout win probably be
Dixon's last fight in England, as he in
tends to come home soon.
Sporting men who have recently re-
turned from the other side are author
ity for the statement that the colored
boy has broken loose from his prodigal
habits and as a result has accumulated
another tidy little fortune since he
crossed the water.
