COastins in Washington.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
VIII you kindly allow me small space
Of your valuable paper in which to express
my opinion Of the police regulation pro-
hibiting coasting on the several hills within
the city of Washington. This does not refer
to me personally In this matter, but to all
young men who take advantage Of the op-
pcrtunity to coast, which is so very seldom
probably once in two or three years.
I have been unable to take advantage of
the snow for coasting purposes until last
night wednesday,, when 1 started out to
coast on 1st street hill between B and D
streets southeast. l was just about to coast
down the hill when 1 was approached by
a policeman and told it was a violation of
the police regulations to coast on the hill,
and that II I did SO l would be arrested
and fine imposed by the Police Court.
Not being able financially to pay for coast
ing, especially when 1t should be free to
one and all. for 1t cost the city absolutely
nothing, 1 left the hill with my coasting
enthusiasm below zero.
The following which I am going to state
I know personally to be fact. Every
afternoon about o'clock you can see
large crowd Of 1.-The lovers of horse sleigh
ing racing neck and neck around the cir
Gle south of the White House. This Is not
all for they have the protection of the
police, whole precinct stationed there to
keep the track clear Is it not a violation
OF the ponce regulation, ana II so why is 1t
allowed? Yet we boys of the southeast
section q speak for this section because 1
have been informed that in the other Sec
items of the city there Is no interference
by the police. are prohibited by the police
from coasting on the hills.
Put it all in a nutshell, and you find
imposition on the boys of this section, or
else bad flaw in the police regulation. l
would like to know from the chief of police
or some one in authority where we can
coast without interference by the police.
/ hope by the time the next snow falls
we boys will be able to enjoy ourselves
without interference.

OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION
COMMITTEE WAITS on THE REV. DIR.
MACKAY-SMITH.
Latter Is Undecided as TO Whether He
VIII Accept Post of
COadjutOr.

The Rev. DR.. Alexander Ma ckay-Smith
was today officially notified of his election
as coadjutor to Bishop Whitaker of the
diocese OF Pennsylvania. The notification
committee, composed of the Rev. James De
Wolf, chairman; the Rev DIR. Leverett
Bradley, Richard II. Wilson, l. Newton
Stanger, the Rev. J. Andrew Harris, Fran
els A. Lewis, George c. Thomas, John
Cadwallader and William F. Frazier, ar
rived from Philadelphia, where the Epsco-
pal convention has been IN session, shortly
before IL o'clock, and was driven at once
to st. Johns Episcopal Church, where DR..
Mackay-Smith was in waiting.
The doctor had met nearly all of the
members of the committee before. There
was a general round of handshaking, and
the chairman OF the committee read an adj
dress which was intended to impress upon
DR.. Mackay-Smith the Importance of ac
Cepting the call. Following the reading of
the address, which was in the form of
unanimous call from the convention, there
was general discussion of the subject re-
lating to DR.. Mackay-Smiths giving up his
present charge to take upon his shoulders
broader work. Each of the members of the
committee addressed him and begged of
him to accept the honor that the convention
had bestowed upon him.
Will Give Answer Later.
DR.. Mackay-Smith listened attentively to
what the members of the committee had to
say. He told them that he had not had
time to reach definite conclusion. but that
he would take the subject under advisement
and would give to them an answer in writ
ing as soon as practicable. The members
of the committee were invited to Dr. Mac
kay-Smith's home for luncheon, where the
subject was still further discussed
Since his election COadjutor to the
bishop of the Pennsylvania diocese DR..
Mackay-Smth has received letters from
many of his pariShiOnerS demonstrating
against his leaving St. Johns. At the
same time he has received letters from
bishops and other prominent members of
the ministerial profession throughout the
country begging him to accept the new
post.
Among the latter We're kilograms from
Bishop Potter of New York Bishop Law
renee of Massachusetts and Bishop Doane
of Albany. Bishop Potter IS coming from
New York some day next week to confer
with DR.. Mackay- Smith regarding the lat
terS possible action. The doctor was for
several years archdeacon of the Episcopal
diocese of New York before he came to
Washington as rector of St. Johns and
ne Is known to be very close to Bishop
Potter.
The Duties of COadjutor.
The duties of coadjutOr In the Episcopal
Church are practically the same as the
bishops. According to the laws of the
church, bishop is not permitted to re-
linquish his title. "Once a bishop, al
ways a bishop" Is the spirit of the law
When the head of a diocese by reason of
advanced age or other cause is unable to
perform all the duties of the Office they
devolve upon a cOadjutor. The office Of
coadJutor Is usually considered the STEP
ping stone to bishopric.
