TWO LILY BULBS ARE FOUND
IN CEREMENTS OF MUMMY
Symbols of Future Life Were Interred
With Egyptian Maiden
2,000 Years Ago
University of Washington, Feb.
Wrapped in the linen cerements of
the mummy treasured In the museum
of the university have been, all un
beknown to Curator Frank Hall, two
Egyptian water lily bulbs, symbols of
future life. They were discovered
the other day when Mr. Hall had
the 2,000-year-old maiden removed
from her case in order that hierogly
phics on the latter might be photo
graphed. The wrappings were dis
covered to be decaying, and an ex
amination revealed the bulbs.
Thought very little hope is held
out that the spark of life may be in
the bulbs, they were taken to the
botany department, where Dean T.
C. Frye examined them. Dr. Frye
thinks that careful study may lead
to the Identification of the genus of
the lilies, and an attempt to culti
vate them.
Both bulbs are in good state of
preservation. One is much like an
onion, with a thin, scaly skin. The
other Is somewhat shriveled, but has
a heavy, fleshy exterior.
The case in which the mummy has
been kept does not belong to her. It
bears cuneiform markings belonging
to the twenty-first dynasty, and was
made more than 4,000 years ago. It
came from a stone sarcophagus in
one of the mortuary templesc of the
Thebans. The mummy dates from
somewhere between 300 and 30 B. C.
and was unearthed at Fayum, Egypt.
Both the case and the mummy were
presented to the museum some years
ago by M. F. Backus of the National
Bank of Commerce.
The Inscriptions on the case were
photographed that they might be sent
to the Metropolitan Museum in New
York or the Field Museum in Chicago
for translation.
A large snow which fell recently
In Seattle paralyzed the action of the
students and the professors as much
as if an army of a million men had
occupied Seattle. The entire street
car system was tied up, and various
and sundry means of transportation
were used. The Dean of the Law
Department rode triumphantly up to
the law school on the tall of a coal
truch, dismounted with enough coal
in his hand to start a grate fire. Many
professors used skies, and some used
sleds, to come to their 10 o'clock
classes. University of Washington.
