ART EXHIBIT At H. S.
Showing of Pictures One of the Best
Ever Seen in Topeka.

The collection of oil paintings by the
members OF the Woodstock, New York
colony and art school, now on exhibit
ton at the Topeka high school, is one
of the best that has ever come to To-
peka and should be visited and care
fully studied by every lover of art
The paintings, with one or two ex-
cept1ons, are landscapes and marines,
and among them are several by Mrs.
Fern I. Coppedge of this city.
On the south wall of the room hangs
a group of winter scenes by John F.
Carlson. Mr.. Carlson is a member of
the New York Academy of Design, the
Art Leagut of New York, and of many
other art societies of the metropolis.
Also he is a winner of gold medals at
the San Francisco fair, and at the Cor
coran gallery in Washington, D. c. All
of the pictures in this group display a
most elegant and finished technique,
and the artists portrayalS of a winter
landscape under the various moods and
phases of the weather in that capri
cious season, are most wonderful.
In 'Sunlit Shadows we see the real
sunlight of a clear, cold, day, daz-
Zling the eyes it reflects from the
snow. 1t the March Thaw'' there is
an atmosphere permeated by the raw,
chilly, mist which rises from the yell
low, rOtting, ice that says, and silently
breaks of its own weight, and is borne
away by the black waters of the wood
land stream. In beautiful little Win
try Stubble'' is seen the expanse of a
corn field on a cold, half cloudy day.
The color of the patches of dead grass,
the yellow shocks of corn, and the cold
gray ground, family frightened by an
uncertain sun, are all combined to
make a color effect not unlike that of
an ancient rug of soft and refined
shades.
Golden Willows" a late autumn
landscape, is another display and COM
bination of exquisite color Frank
Swift Chase, the artist. who is rapidly
forging to the front in the American
art world, was a few years ago a poor
coal miner in Arkansas. Determined
to rise, and having a taste for art he
and his brother went to New York
where. after hard fight with poverty
they overcame all obstacles and are
both prominent today
Another interesting group of pictures
is that of Alfred H. Hutty. Mr.. Hutty
is a designer of glass windows for Tiff
fanys of New York. But his work
shows little trace of the influence of
his profession, except that in it are
seen certain purple and green and

STATE INSURE WORKER
American Association for Labor Leg
islation Proposes Reform.

New York, Nov. 15.-The American
Association for Labor Legislation to-
day made public the text of a bill
designed to establish a system of
health insurance for workers in this
and other states. The association pro-
poses to introduce the measure in the
next New York legislature and in other
state legislatures in the course of the
next few months.
The general purpose of the proposed
measure provides for health insur-
ance for employees at the joint ex-
pense of employee, employer and
state. AS now drafted the employer
and employees would contribute
equally and the state would contribute
one-fourth to this amount.
The bill applies to all those engaged
in manual labor and to all others
earning less than S100 a month. 1t
would provide every insured worker
with medical care, including nursing
attendance, hospital care, medical and
surgical supplies. and a cash benefit
equal to two-thirds of the wage for
maximum of twenty-six weeks in a
year.
1t also offers special care for the
wife of an insured man.

THE BELL IS IN PLACE
Penn College Improvement Spreads
Glad Tidings Over Town.

Did you hear the new college bell
ringing this morning? After special
chapel exercise, during which it was
formerly Dedicated the new bell first
rang from it's position in the college
tower
President Edwards gave history
OF the bell and letters from old stu
dents who have been contributed to
the fund were read The bell was then
presented by the President to the
College board of trustees, who after
acknowledging the action OF Pres. Ed
wards ordered the bell to tell the city
in it's clear, yet mellow tones, that
the friends of the college were many
as shown by the volunteer contribu
ton toward the new purchase. The
new bell is one of the best and largest
made by the company from which II
was purchased. Weighing twice as
much as the old one which called
Penn students for many years, the
proportion is carried out in the dis
stance which it may be heard, for the
manufacturers claim that on clear
quiet mornings the sound should Ia
heard for ten miles, or twice the dis
lance which the sound waves of the
old bell penetrated.

ouR ZANE Is WIDESPREAD.

One of the developments OF the re-
cent early Meeting of Friends in this
city was the fact of the wide reputa'
ton that Oskaloosa has gained on &C
count of the presence of the Society
of Friends in our midst and the Iowa
Yearly Meeting coming here from
year to year. The geographical To-
cation of Oskaloosa almost midway
between the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts, makes it center to which in
years past practically all of the lead
ers of the church have come.
In still another sense, the city OF
Oskaloosa is being continually EN-
phasized and that is through the
graduate body of Penn college. In
all of the fourteen Yearly Meetings
of the Friends church in this coun'
try there is hardly one in which the
graduates and Christian workers OF
Penn college have not gone and they
are a vita lforce in the affairs OF their
church.
John r. Webb of the Canada Yearly
Meeting in one of his talks paid
glowing, tribute to Oskaloosa as a
city and to Penn college as school
on account of the grand and solld
work for good that had been done
here in years past and the giving OF
men to the church, who were now
great power in the worlds affairs.
Joseph J. Mills, the General Secre'
tary OF the Five Years Meeting, and
one of the leaders of the church,
spoke in the highest terms of the city
and college, incidentally mentioning
the fact that Gilbert Bowles, who is
at the head of the Friends Mission in
japan. was in a large measure cred
tied with the present friendly rela
tions that exist between this nation
and Japan He probably secured
his first lessons in the perpetuation
of peace in years past from Penn col
.lege and he is now an honOred gradu'
ate
Anvil G. Hinshaw, the national
chairman of the Prohibition party, is
another illustriOus son, who has made
both OskaloOsa and his alma mater
famous, and these few names are but

IOWA COAL AT STATE FAIR.

Perhaps no single industry OF the
state outside OF the agricultural, hor.
ticultural and dairy exhibits attract
ed quite so much attention at the
State Fair as did the display of Iowa
coal in the Mines and Mining Build
ing 1t was thought by the State
Mining department to put this indus.
try before the people in such a way
as to give them a relative knowledge
of Iowa coal and the importance Of
the coal mining industry in this state
The display was arranged and in
charge of l.. +. Stamm OF the State
Mining Department, and he endeaV
ored in every way possible to impress
upon the people the value Of the in
dustry both by the exhibit shown and
by stating facts that would rivet AMI
hold the attention OF passersby.
Coal from more than one hundred
mines in twenty-three counties in the
state was shown, and the large
chunks of coal on display on the out.
side of the building were the wonder
of all One of these weighed more than
two thousand pounds while a number
of others would weigh from twelve to
fifteen hundred. On the inside of the
building displays were arranged
showing the different grades OF coal
produced such as furnace, steam, nut
etc, while samples OF washed Goals
were on display.
I A car of coal from fifty mines in
eighteen counties OF the state was
placed out in front OF the building
and the people asked TO guess the
weight of coal in the car. The coal
was weighed after the fair and
weighed exactly 2357h pounds. No
one guessed the exact weight, but
twelve persons guessed within one
half pound of the exact weight, and
this was indeed remarkable consider
ing that the car contained coal from
so many mines and that In the car
was both broken and lump coal.
People visiting the exhibit learned
that there are over 300 coal mines
Operating in twenty-three counties OF
Iowa; that there are produced more
than eight million tons OF coal each
year, and that the value OF the pro
duct mined would approximate TWEEN
ty-fve million dollars annually. They
also learned that 1900 men are Civ.
EN- employment in and around these
mines, while perhaps eighty or one
hundred thousand people are depend
ent upon the coal industry. They
were uniformed that the millions OF
dollars invested In the coal mining
