ORIGINAL C0L0RS REPRODUCED
interesting Exhibition of COpies of
Great Paintings of the World by
Fraulein Antoine Stole.

Fraulein Antoine Stole. the distinguished
Boston teacher and lecturer. delivered an
illustrated lecture at the high school au-
ditorium last night under the auspices of
the Art Teachers Association and the
Atkeraeum. Fraulein Stole has acquired
ar international reputation for her clever
reproduction in miniature of the great
paintings of the world. These miniatures
are thrown upon the screen by means of a
stereCpticon with their original colors pre-
served. The effect is striking. for the alI-
dience gazes upon an absolute reproduc-
ton, natural size. with all the niceties and
riChress of original coloring, of the price
less treasures of the great galleries of the
Ole World.
Frau5ein Stole employs a method dis
and exhibitions have been distinc-
tive events in art circles during her
present tour. She has exhausted the gal
leries of Europe. bringing across the water
the rarest paintings of all the world. The
great masters of the past and the geniuses
Of the present contribute their quota to
the exceedingly interesting exhibition. The
art value of the lecture is of course i'm
m~easurably enhanced by the fact that
the lecturer is herself an artist of fame.
A large audience witnessed the exhibition
last night and enjoyed the rich artistic
treat which it afforded. Colored lantern
slides are not a novelty. but the manner
in which Fraulein Stole has reproduced
these great paintings is an innovation
which amounts to a revolution. The copies
represent nearly two years of arduous
labor. and a riumph over numerous obsta-
Giles to access to the galleries of the Old
World. Every picture shown by Fraulein
Stole is painted by her. the great majority
being copies of great paintings. but many
of them are reproductions of camera pic
lures taken by Fraulein Stole herself.

General Sporting Notes.

Smoky" Ben Smith is requested to call
at The Journal office at S o'clock tonight.
Dan Creedon has challenged Tommy Ry-
an, who repeatedly has said he would meet
the Australian.
Tod Sloane and Julius Fleischman have
come to an agreement. and the former will
ride the horses of the latter's stable this
season.
Paris, KY, Jan. 2S.-Kid Iafobre, of Gin
c%innati, and Lou Meller. of Evansville. Ind,
fought a ten-round draw here last night.
1t was a fast and furious fight.
Dunkirk, n. Y, Jan. 2S.-Tom Davis. of
San Francisco. and Herman Feifel, of
Meadville, Pa. middleweights. fought a
hfteen-round draw last night before the
Dunkirk Athletic Club.
Fred Morris. the BLACK Cyclone" who
meet Frank Craig. the Harlem Coffee
Cooler" Morris wants TO wipe out the de-
feat which, the Cooler administered to
him several years ago in this country.
Sammy Kelley will most likely take a
trip to the other side in the near future.
as he has been offered a tempting purse to
meet "Pedlar" Palmer in a twenty round
contest by the National Sporting Club of
London. The contest, if arranged, will most
likely take place in April.
Mick Head, the Irish lightweight, who is
regarded as the best man in his class in
Ireland, added another victory to his long
list by knocking out Jimmy keogh. of
Dublin. at Belfast, two weeks ago. Keogh
attempted to stay six rounds with Head.
but was put to sleep in the third with a
heavy smash on the jaw.
Steve O'Donnell. of Australia, is kicking
himself for not being able to meet Yank
Kenny. at Philadelphia, O'Donneli states
| that he will give another chance to Ken
ny. but it is not likely that the latter will
consent, as he wants to tackle easier game.
O'Donnell says that if Kenny will not
meet him he will meet any of the other
heavyweights.
Steve O'Donnell.. the Australian heavy
weight, has split with Billy Madden, with
whom ne was associated for three years.
and he is very sore. The trouble was
caused by Madden booming Gus Rubin at
O'DonnelI's expense. Steve declared yes
terday that the bout he had with Rubin
in Akron, o., was fixed so as to secure a
match for Gus with some boxer of prom
inence. In that bout Steve says he pre-
tended to be all but ont in ten rounds. He
declares that he can stop Rubin in three
rounds at any time.

Mayor Ramsdell is again mayor of Lynn.
Two years ago he was elected by the

Citizens Reform party. He was again
nominated by reclamation by the Demo-
Gratis to succeed himself as mayor of the

the legitimate reward of his ability and his
fearlessness in defending his opinions. He
