WALKING MATCHES.
Dunedin, This day.
Austin and Seymour have managed to come to terms with reference to the proposed twenty-four hours and forty-eight hours pedestrian matches with Edwards, the Australian champion. The first of the two events will come off in Dunedin in five weeks time, and the second a week later. The conditions give Mr Austin the right to name which event shall take place first, and also the right to name Scott or any other man he may think proper for tho fortyeight hours walk. Scott has already been named for the shorter distance and if ho shows anything like his old form he will also be named for the longer distance.
