ANCIENT JARS FOR coE.
Or. GunsauIus Presents College Art
Room With Vessels From Sea.


Cedar Rapids, Aug. dr. Frank
Gunsaulus, president of Armour Insti-
tute at Chicago. when making his com
students in June, suggested that steps
be taken by Coe to establish an art
collection. He promised at the time to
send some gift to start the collection.
and has kept good his word. This
week there arrived two ancient oil jars
which had been picked up by travellers
evidently dredging for mines in the Red
Sea or Mediterranean waters. They are
believed to be of Egyptian origin. The
Jars are round on the bottom and were
accompanied by two brass stands on
which they rest. The bottom is eight
inches in diameter while the swell Of
the jar near the top measures fourteen
inches across. The opening in the top
measures about three inches across.
One OF the jars has stopper which is
covered with a substance resembling
dried linseed Oil and when drawn from
the top expands like rubber. The Jars
are of pottery resembling stone but
so far as can be ascertained there is
no writing on the surface.
The gifts have been placed in the
museum in science hall and 1t may be
that within the next two years an art
collection Of some Importance may be
added to the college, DR.. Bailey of
Coe faculty, has given his time hereto
fore more to collection of such ar
ticles that fall in line with the study
talks at Coe. However, there has been
a growing tendency to increase an in
terest in art and this is shown on a
small scale in the number OF painted
portraits hung on the wall OF Sinclair
chapel.

Crossed Wires Send Cedar Rapids Man
to Hospital.
Cedar Rapids, Aug. 6.-Howard
Koran, a bookkeeper employed In the
office of Douglas & Company receiv-
ed severe electrical shock in an un-
usual manner, and his injuries were OF
a nature that caused his removal to
St Lukes hospital for treatment. His
condition for time was considered
serious, but he is much improved today
and his complete recovery is a matter
of a short time.
Koran was using a desk telephone
and when he finished talking placed
the instrument back on the desk. In
doing so he accidentally touched the
receiving apparatus Of dictaphone
which stood near the desk. and which
had apparently become charged with 2
heavy voltage of electricity. The shock
was sufficient to throw Koran to the
floor and he was unable to release his
hold on either the telephone or the die
tatng machine. He managed to KICK
the dictaphone over. however, with the
assistance of his brother. Harley Hor-
an who was near by, thus shut off the
current which was passing thru his
body. The motor on the dictaphone is
operated by current from the private
plant maintained by the company.

LAM FRITZ" PLAYED
AT FRENCH THEATRE
Fifty-Year.OId Play Looks Its
AGE. but Retains Its Charm.

"L'Ami Fritz" fftyyear-old com-
edy. by Erckmann-C hatrian, IS being
presented this week at the Theatre
Francois, in Forty-fourth Street. If no
effort has been made by eliminating alb
surd "asides" and cutting down inter
minable monologues to disguise the
comedy's age it must IN fairness be
stated that the Old World charm and
fervid patriotism Of AlSace were sug-
