and Greek Art and Italian Painting,
the three periods in which the collec-

Palladium Specially

! Oxford, Feb. 21.-Oxford was as
tonished today when Marshal Over
holtz, notified merchants of all class
es that no business can be done here
on Sunday hereafter. He acted un-
der orders of Mayor King, which, if
carried out, will create blue regime,
as slight as ever old New England
knew
Druggists were notified that no eli
CARS could be sold. w. E. Keen
was told not to open his cigar store
Restaurant keepers and bakers were
advised that they could sell nothing
but food. Liverymen were notified
that hey must rent no vehicles. AS
sistant Postmaster Craig says that
the postmaster was advised that he
would not be allowed to open the
potoffice Sunday mornings, as has
been the custom. The agents of
newspapers were informed that the
sale of Sunday papers must stop.
Nobody knows what to make of
this astonishing step. Mayor Tom
King was away this morning and
could not be seen.
W. E. Keen told Marshal Overholz
that if his store was closed he would
stop the operation of the telephone
exchange, the water works and the
electric light plant and would try to
prevent the work of paid organists
and singers in the churches. What
the situation will develop into re-
mains TO be seen.

Little Likelihood That City Will
Have Ball Team Since Jessup

Has Signed.

Now that Jessup has signed as
manager of the new Marion team in
the Interstate League, the prospects
of Richmond being given a berth in
the new organization are very poor.
as Jessup was the principal agitator
of the scheme. The prospects of no
Sunday ball in Richmond frightened
"Shorty." If the next legislature
passes law permitting the playing
Of baseball on Sunday, which it is al
most sure to do, Richmond will be

POETIC REBUkE
FOR JUNGLE JOE

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 8. -
Uncle Joe" Cannon has again pro-
voked the wrath of the fair sex by
his propensity to use cuss words.
The California club, a wealthy or
ganization of CALIFORNIA; female
socially elect, which has been try
ing for six years to have Cannon
permit the governments purchase
of the Calaveras Big Tree grove
and has been repeatedly rebuffed
by the vigilant watch dog of the
treasury" has launched at "Uncle
ole" a poetical shaft which seems
calculated to bring him low.
This outburst, credited to Mrs.
Lowell White, president of the Cali
fornia club, results from a report
that Cannon recently remarked to
an interested party in connection
with the Calaveras project. THE
ladies may go to -"
Hence the following poem which
is being mailed to Cannon in a
thick, cream colored envelope,
bearing the splendid red and gold
seal of the California club of San
Francisco. 1t is, as will be seen,
parody on THE Charge of the
Light Brigade"

Schreck to Meet Will.
Mike Schreck and John Willie
are to be in the ring at Colma on
Feb. 2. That was decided upon
recently when it was found impos-
sible to match tho Cincinnati man
with Al Kaufman. Delaney did not
wish the local lad to fight for a
while, so a dispatch was sent to
Chicago to get Willie out here. He
will leave at once for San Fran
cisco.
On Sept. at Salt Lake City
Schreck and Willie met. The referee
OF the contest was queer, and gave
three decisions before the crowd
stopped him with their Kisses. First
he said that Schreck had won. then
he called the match a draw and
then gave the fight to Willie on an
alleged foul. He had to leave the
ring in hurry before he could give
his next view of the contest. That
complication shows at least that
the men are pretty evenly matched
and should put up a good battle.

Ing

There is a proposition on foot to
fight Britt and Nelson in Spokane
during the month of April, and, it
is said, over $4,000 of the purse
money has been subscribed. The
promoters of the fight refuse to
have their names mentioned at this
time, but admit they are dickering
for some big fight. The hall which
the men are figuring on Is the new
skating hall, out on the corner of
Elm street and the Seattle Lake
Shore & Eastern tracks. 4.
The hall, it is said, could be fitted
up so that it would hold enough
people to make money. The build
ing is about 1OOx10O feet and the
seats, which are not already in the
hall, will be placed on the circus
plan. One of the promoters stated
yesterday:
"The idea occurred to a few of
us about week ago. I knew the
building was large one and de-
cided to see what could be done
toward renting it. I have not seen
the owners of the building and am
not sure we can obtain it. l went
to several business men here and
had talk with them about raising
a purse. | have been assured of
getting $4,000 already and may be
able to make it $4,000 or $4,000 in
the next few days. will then see
about the hall. If the hall can
be gotten, a wire, with the guar
antee money stated, will be sent
to San Francisco asking whether
Britt and Nelson would accept. If
