DOCTOR ON MENTAL HEALING
Criticised for Using Such
Methods Without Consultation.

ATLANTIC CITY. n. j., June 1O.-In
an address before the Medical Associa-
tion's section of pharmacology and thera-
peutics today DIR. NJ. Clayton Thrush of
Philadelphia criticised clergymen who en-
ploy mental healing methods without first
having consulted a physician in regard
to the patient.
"A firm stand should be taken against
this practice" declared the doctor Men
tai healing is valuable adjunct to med
ical treatment, but II should be applied
with discretion. Not by any means is this
always done. No clergyman who has not
a knowledge of pathology should attempt
mental healing until the physician exam
ines the patient and finds him a suitable
subject"

WR1GHTs ARRANGE FLIGHTS.
Will Make Tests In Aeroplane at
Fort Mver on June 81,

Orville and Wilbur Wright, inventors
of the aeroplane about to be sold to the
government, had a conference today
with Gen. Allen, chief of the Signal
Corps. in regard to the final tests of
their machine.
The inventors announced that June IA
they would ship the aeroplane from
Dayton to Fort Myer, Va. where the
the Signal Corps.
Owing to the two days celebration to
be given in their honor June II and Is
at Dayton the inventors themselves will
not be able to come to Washington until
week later, June 81. BY that time, 1t
is calculated, their mechanics will have
set up their machine and the inventors
will be able at once to meet the re-
quirements of speed, distance and en-
duranc in fight.
The tests are to be completed by June
%. The short time allowed by the
Wright brothers in which to make the
tests is interpreted as showing their
confidence in their machine.
At almost the same moment when the
brothers called at the War Department
Gen. Allen was receiving the first photo
graph of the cast of the medal voted by
Congress TO be presented TO them at the
Dayton celebration. 1t is regarded as
slowed by Congress upon a private citi-
zen.
On the face are shown splendid profile
likenesses of both Wrights. 1t bears
their names and the statement:
In recognition and appreciation of
their ability, courage and success in
navigating the air.
The further explanation is given that
the medal was voted by resolution of
Congress March 4, 1909.
On the reverse is represented cherub
flying high above the world bearing in
her hands the torch of enlightenment
Above her are these words. taken from
Isaiah: shall mount up with wings as

Their plans now are to ship the aero
plane in charge of c. E. Taylor, their
chief mechanic. early next week It
will be assembled at Fort Myer
Orville Wright will do the flying at
Fort Myer. though it is possible that
Wilbur Wright may make few ascen-
sions. They are not apt to go in the
machine together.
The ten-mile fight as speed test
probably will be from Fort Myer to
Alexandria and return. This will be the
first cross-country flight the machine has
