Laundry work at home would be

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods. This trou-
BILE can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great
or strength than other makes.

MARKING House Linen.

Who has not found difficulty in
writing upon linen with indelible ink?
One woman has discovered a way to
remedy the trouble.
Stretch the portion of liren to be
marked in an embroidery frame,
which holds the fabric so tight that it
is almost as easy to write upon it as
upon a writing tablet.
When a simple discovery like this

The first annual cross country run

OLSON-DEMETRAL CONTEST
BOTH MEN CONFIDENT OF VIC.

CROWD EXPECTED.
BY Tort.

Tomorrow evening at the Coliseum,
William Demetral and Charles Olson
will fight it out for the English light
heavyweight championship belt. Olson
has put up $500 against this belt and
he is confident that with fair referee
he will be able to defeat the Greek.
On. thS.sg hand. Demetral has not
the slightest fear OF losing his belt as
he has a well defined opinion AlAt ~
has it on the Indianapolis star.
Promoter Charlson states that he
has secured Dick Fleming, the cele-
brated Chs12go wrestling referee, to
officiate "a A. ring. He is an expert
and knows Oh points of the wrestling
game. This guarantees that there will
be no more Joe LaSalle tactics.
Olson has wrestled In this city six
or seven times and has only been de-
feated once, that ~ lex being turned by
Demetral last geek. Olson has won
a host OF friends here r. his clever
work, and they will be on hand tomor-
row night to cheer him on in the most
important match he has had this year
in Richmond or outside Of Richmond.
CLASSY as the Indianapolis lad is. he
has in his opponent tomorrow night, a
man every bit as clever at the mat
game. Quick as a cat, powerful. and
with a complete knowledge Of all the
holds and defenses of the game. The
hue and cry that has been raised by a
bunch of confirmed knockers that the
wrestling matches here are crooked,
has failed to make any great impress
sion on the public. The sporting de-
partment of the Palladium has every
reason to believe that the local match
es have been conducted fairly and
squarely. The Palladium has never
given any cause for its readers to be-
lieve it would sanction dishonest meth.
DDS in sports or anything else, and ii
the Palladium had the slightest reason
for believing the local wrestling game
was crooked, 1t would promptly ex-
pose the fact. Richmond lovers Oh
clean sport have the opportunity of re-
buking those who seize every chance
of giving local sporting events black

coliseum tomorrow night. The indi.
cations are that the usual large crowd

the Smiths by score of to o. In
the second game the Carmans upset
the dope bucket by making it a run

The first game was somewhat slug

offered by both teams was good, Gey-

particularly effective. No count was
made in the first period but shortly
after the opening OF the second period
Nolan slipped one into the Smith
cage. This trick was repeated in the
third period by Clark OF the Grays.
