ACCIDENT HOLDS UP.
WOODWARD CARS.
Traffic Congestion at Rush Hour Re-
suits From Derailment At
M Forest-Ave.

Hundreds Of shivering citizens, all
patrons OF the Woodward-ave. car
line. stood on the corners In the dowl-
town district, early Wednesday eve
ming. waiting for cars that caTe not.
Every moment added TO the indignant
throng as employers and employees
streamed out of stores and ONCE build
ings. From $40 until 6 o'clock not a
Woodward car appeared. and when
traffic was finally resumed there was
q grand rush for seats.
To make sure OF getting on. many
clambered aboard the down-bound cars
as they turned down Congress and
came back to Woodward by way OF
Griswold and Jefferson. Conductors
protested In vain. and the one who
would have dared to throw anyone OF
would have had healthy scrap on his
hands.
The pay-enter cars were particular
ly suited to the purposes OF these de-
termined patrons.
you'll have to wait until we get
around to the avenue" yelled the con
ductors.
But the crowd forged right ahead
The result was that many fares were
not registered. In one Woodward car
that was packed to capacity the
register indicated but 43 fares.
The cause of 1t all was little mix
up between a Woodward and Cross
town car at Woodward and Forest
aves.. at $50. as result OF which
the latter was derailed. Both cars
were well-filled but no one was In
jured and no serious damage resulted.
A fire alarm box on the corner was
put out OF commission, however. Traf-
fic was also delayed on the Forest
ave. lines for several minutes.

EGYPTIAN MUMMY
5000 YEARS OLD
Is Valued at $40, Per Year and Has
Been. Brought to this
Country.

On board the steamship Aragonia.
which arrived lately from the far
east with a cargo of tea and hemp, is
an Egyptian mummy said to be more
than 5000 years old. With several
admonitions to. handle with care,
which are printed On the outside of
the case, the value is stated on tag
to be $4,000.
1t is said to be the mummy of one
of the Rameses, one of the thirteen
kings of that name of the nineteenth
and twentietieth dynasties. The sec
ond officer of the Aragonia, who has
charge of the cargo, said: II do not
know what number he drew"
The mummy is consigned to the
custody of the Hamburg American
Line in New York. No other consig-
nee there is mentioned. The mum
my came from the interior Of Egypt,
and was taken on board at Suez.
Great care was exercised in handling
it, for it was said that hard jolt
would reduce it to dust. To make
sure that the package would not be
/ thrown around carelessly it was made
SO heavy that this could not be done
The mummy probably does not weigh
more than 125 pounds, but it is pack
ed in lead case. inclosed in an iror
box, and this, in turn, is packed in 6
strong wooden case, the whole thing
| Weighing more than 1000 pounds.

should have to assign about twenty
men to do the job.
while the ship had an unusually
rough passage, | guess the mummy
has come through all right, for it is
so heavy that it is pretty sure to sta,
where it is putt
The value indicated on the case
! is probably exaggerated to insure its
careful handling. The insurance or
the package is said to be worth $40,
I 900.

Rameses are at the Ghizeh Museum

1881 near Der Ell Bahri
The Argonia, after dischargins

IOWA 70 YEARS
OLD TODAY
Anniversary of Birth of State cele-
brated Today-Has Interesting
Future.

Today Iowa celebrates the seventy
third anniversary of its admission as
a state to the "indissoluable union
made more perfect" 1t was on Dec.
2S 1916, that the territory which was
destined to become the great Hawk
eye state was formally admitted to
the sisterhood of states.
BY rights the day should have been
the seventy-fourth anniversary, but
when the national government pat
termed the first state of Iowa, the
pattern was rejected by an over
whelming vote. The government
again made a pattern and 1t was also
rejected, SO that it was not until
1876 that the present boundaries of
the state were agreed upon, and the
state made part of the union.
At the time when Iowa was admitted
there prevailed a custom of admitting
one northern and one southern state
In 1916 when it was first proposed to
admit Iowa. Florida was the southern
state chosen as the companion to en-
ter the great bond of unionism The
people of Florida accepted the bound
aries provided by the government and
hence beat her sister state into the
union by one year.
