MATTER GIVES CONCERN.
Question Whether or Not Insane
Man Has Been INDECENT Patient.

Frank Healy. patient at the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane. supported
by the board OF charities for eighteen
years, is causing that board and the
Commissioners some study. as the ques-
ton arises: Can Frank Healy. with a
no-hundred- anddollar estate left
to him. be supported by District funds?'
Frank Healy has been a patient at fhe
hospital for eighteen years, and his
board and medical attendance have cost
the District of Columbia $1,000. When
he entered the hospital he WAS classcd as
an INDECENT patient
This patients brother. James A. Healy,
died December ~. 1910. leaving an estate
worth S200.Oe0. and the understanding by
Secretary George Wilson of the board OF
charities is that the estate will i'm the
natural course of events go to the
brother at the insane asylum. OF course.
from now on, the estate VIII pay for the
patients maintenance. but the board OF
charities wants to get back the $1,000
already spent on the patient. For that
reason the matter has been turned over
to- the corporation counsel. with the re-
quest that, if possible, this $4,000 be col
lected.

be. one of the finest professional SHOWS
of its kind in the world.
Because Of the apparent misunder-

ing performance each day.

sion of Omar, the fearless Arabian

the ship is in the air. is one of the
striking features of the show
The horses are as handsome any
ever exhibited in Washington, and the
riding exhibitions embrace every form of
that sport. from the daring rough riding
of the cowboys to the finished and grace
full performances of the star equestr
ennes. Trained geese and dogs also have
their part. and one of the comical ele-
ments is the trained donkey.

BLAMES RABBI EGELSON
FOR OPPOSITION TO HIM
S. Atlas Declares Modernism Not
Responsible for His
Removal.

In connection with the announce
ment that Rabbi Louis 1. Egelson is to
sever his connection with the Adas Israel
Synagogue, March 1, 'the differences
that have existed are to be healed and
forgotten" it is declared.
Modernism was in no way connected
with the opposition that developed against
Rabbi Egelson." S. Atlas. vice president
of the congregation, asserted last evening.
THE attempt made by the rabbi to make
it appear that he was voted out of the
congregation because of his progressive
ideas is contorted presentation of the
real condition. In fact, this very effort
on the part of the rabbi to attribute his
rejection to what he is pleased to call
the rigid orthodoxy of the membership
but illustrates again his unfortunate ten
dency. which has resulted in the rabbi
losing the support OF the majority OF the
members of the synagogue, and alternating
the moral encouragement that he other.
wise would have earned.
No reform or change of any kind has
meen made in the service of the Adas
Israel congregation in the three years
that DIR. Egelson has been it's rabbi, anG
none has been advocated by him thai
would not have been gladly adopted
by large majority of the members hat
friendship of the membership.
Rabbi EgelsOn failed to distinguish
between the members of the congrega
ton and the service they followed, ant
in recommending changes too often con
demned the members rather than criti
else the custom The pulpit was used b,
him as an advantageous place from
which he could better fight out his differ
ences with individual members. This anl
similar conduct in other matters by tn.
rabbi led TO his losing many friend.
and supporters until his retention would
have led to inevitable disruption of ,ht

and his influence was felt along many
lines. His ability as a vocal teacher
was soon recognized, and his pupils,
numbered by the hundreds, filled i'm
portant church positions and were in de-
mand everywhere. He was instrumental
