"HoME FOR THE SANE
Worlds Missionary Seeks to Establish
Refuge for Partly Cured Patients

Mrs T. H. A. Hale, a worlds mission
airy, who has been in Washington for
several months, Is endeavoring to secure
support in the founding of a home for
the sane She believes that those per-
sons who have been confined in insane
asylums and who have nearly recovered
should be removed from their surround
ings and placed in a home for the sane, -
to complete the cure.
Mrs Hale began a series1of visits to st.
ElizabethIs last August. and has spent sew
eral days a week in that institution since
then. and thinks there are many persons
confined there who are just as sane as
persons outside Of the bolts and bars She
says the first woman who asked for aid in
securing her freedom appeared to be per-
fectly sane, and the worlds missionary
requested permission of the superintend-
ent to permit the patient to spend
Thanksgiving at Mrs. Hale's residence
Mrs. Hale found 1t impossible, however
to induce the people with whom she then
lived to receive "a crazy person in the
house. and this gave Mrs. Hale the idea
OF her home for the sane" She thinks
such persons she has in mind should
be protected from the insane world until
they have a chance to make a home for
themselves.
Mrs. Hale wants some wealthy person
to provide the use of a furnished house
which will accommodate ten or twelve
persons for use as temporary home for
the sane. The worlds missionary says
she does not want any compensat ton what
ever for her services Mrs Hale lives at
2118 Wyoming avenue.

TRIBUTE TO DIR. RANKIN.
Official Action by Howard University
Trustees,

The board of trustees of Howard Univer.
sity has unanimously adopted resolutions of
coincidence and regret upon the death of
the late jeremiah Eames Rankin, DID,,
Ii. D., former president of the board
Ohio. 1t is stated that:
''Dr. Rankin was one of the men Of the
nineteenth century, eminent in his literary
standing as a writer of prose and poetry
eminent among the divines of the country
as pastor and for his pulpit discourses,
eminent in the stand taken by him for the
elevation and education of the poorer
classes, especially Of the colored race of
the country. This latter first drew the at
tention of the trustees of this university to
him as specially fitted for the position to
which he was elected, president We place
on record our appreciation of his loyalty
and of the great value to the university of
his services during the thirteen years of his
administration as president, only interrupt
ed by his failure of health, which rendered
further continuance of the discharge of
the arduous duties of the position physical
ly impossible.
In CONCLUSION the trustees say they 'are
glad that he lived to a. ripe old age and
that the public reaped the benefit of his
great ability until almost the close of his
life. There Is a special significance in the
coincidence of 5flis death occurring on the
fiftieth anniversary of his marriage"
A com44ttefsa consisting of Mr.. F. HI.
Smith,, chairman; = President Gordon and
President sSf tire Board Hamlin was ap-
pointed TO eprQyide for a public memorial
meeting int the sAndrew Rankin Memorial
Chapel, AVID that Gen. 90. Howard be in
vited to dahver the principal address.
