Recent acquisitions which will be
placed on view at the Metropolitan Mu-
scum OF Art to-day for the first time
include a very important early me-
di@val statue of a king of Judah and
other medieval sculptures. two fine
pieces of early Renaissance stained
glass from the Lawrence collection re-
Gently sold at auction, some remarkable
examples Of classical jewelry and a
marble group OF panthers by Georges
Gardet.
The early medieval sculpture is a
column statue from the portal of a
French church, dating from about the
middle of the twelfth century, and in
style Is closely related to certain of the
celebrated statues Of kings and queens
on the royal portal Of Chartres Ca
thedral. 1t represents a King, presu-
ably one of the kings, OF Judah in the
genealogy Of Christ as related by ST.
Matthew. It is regarded as of the
greatest Importance as an example of
the revivifying Of sculpture which
marked the transition at this particular
period from the Romanesque to the
Gothic style. It Is figure of great
delicacy and charm and quite worthy
of attention aside from the fact of It's
historical interest. 1t is pronounced by
the museum authorities to be the most
important piece or Gothic sculpture
ever imported into this country.
With II is shown a group of interesting
etone capitals. French, of the late
twelfth century and end of the eleventh
century.

Needs $4,000 to Save the Man

Mrs. Oscar Hammerstein's compl

climax yesterday with the knowledge
that unless she can raise $1,000 early

Interest amounting to $500 on the
mortgage for s250,000 held by the Metro

due March /, and on the first OF this
month interest amounting to $500 on
the smaller mortgage held by the
Mutual Bank also was due. Further
more, unless the widow of the I'M

balance of STATS due on the monument
erected over the grave of Oscar Ham

monument makers threaten to strip the
Hammerstein plot OF its memorial.

my friends in vain. I have even tried
TO have the sum Of $4.s00 held by the
officers of the Oscar Hammerstein Me-

Speaking for Mrs. Hammerstein
George Blumenthal, her business man

impresario. to help her out of her pres

Mr.. Gallo offered to advance Mrs.
Hammerstein $4,000 to September l.,
but demanded the possession of the

said. You can sec readily what would
happen on September If Mrs. Hammer
stein should be unable to meet her
obligations to him at that time. lie
would be in possession of the deeds"
Mr.. Gallo would not talk for publica-

that his proposition to Mrs. Hammer

Manhattan Opera House, involves o
much larger sum than the $4,000 men
