RAISE MILLION DOLLAR FUND.
coe College Successful in Campaign
For Great Endowment Fund.

Special TO Times -RepuonCan.
Cedar Rapids, Dec. 4.-On Thanks
giving day. Coe college closed success
fully its campaign for Sl.O00.OOO. II
was a quiet campaign and lacked all of
the spectacular features which gener-
ally characterize these college hunts
for money. There was no whlrlWind
finish with its clock or THERMOMETERS
registering the daily and hourly ad-
vance Of the fund. Owing to the fact
that~the city is conducting campaign
for s165. 900 for Y. VI. c. A. building,
the college did not put on popular
canvass in Cedar Rapids. In spite OF
this fact, however $4,000 was given
by trustees and citizens of Cedar Rap
ids toward this fund, making in all
s425. 900, or nearly one-half of the 81
600 900 which has come out of this city.
Included within the sl,000,O00 was
special fund of $4,000 for endow-
ment of the chair of bible. This was
fully reached and already subscrip-
ton OF s., 900 has been made toward
second $4,000 for bible, contingent on
$4,000 more being secured by Decem-
Der, 1918. Also a fund of $4,000 for
the endowment of the chair Of Ameri-
can n1SIUIy dlo pdliIcNiSilA was
pleted This is the chair which DR.. H.
H. Maynard has been working for and
which has ELECTED such favorable com
ment from the press and educators
The completion of Voorhees, hall will
now be pushed rapidly for the 100000
required-a gift Of Mrs. Elizabeth
Voorhees, now In the bank and the
plans and specifications are ready 10
go to the contractors. Included in the
campaign was a pledge of $4,000 for
the erection of library. This will be
placed on the campus in the center Of
what is now the athletic field. This
means a new athletic field. The new
pipe ergan for the Sinclair Memorial
chapel has been selected and will be
installed as rapidly as the builders can
push the work.

American army in Mexico. Military
men expressed that vieW Tuesday
after studying dispatches from the
front that villa. was still In full

little opposition.
The American forces are mora
than 200 miles below the border.
Every mile the Mexican bandit adj
vances into the interior increases the
difficulties of maintaining the already
attenuated line OF American comnlu-
ntcation.
There is'much pessimtsm In army
circles over the prospects OF captur-
ing Villa and It is felt that unless
he Is cornered within the week the
bandit will have outrun his pur-
suers and that many months may
pass before he and his band can be
ferreted out of their hiding places
in the mountains.
Dispatches from the advanced fly

for permission to use Mexican rail-

pursuit OF Villa was prepared Tues

1t will be forwarded to Queretaro
late Tuesday and be delivered by

The memorandum points out that the
problem OF supplying troops now more
than 200 miles from the border Is a
pressing one and need not be delayed
for the protocol covering the general
subject. General Carranza's sugges-
tion as to modification and addition
to the draft of the protocol are still
