MENTAL BREAK.
SEEKS HAVEN IN CAPITAL
Former Soldier Comes All the
Way From Indiana. for
Treatment.

Lee Francis, former soldier and former
inmate Of the Government Hospital for
the Insane. came here yesterday after
noon from Connersville, Ind, and sought
advice from a physician at George WASH
ington University Hospital. He said he
feared recurrence of his mental trouble
and thought he might prevent it if he OBJ
tanned treatment in time.
Francis was in an extremely nervous
condition. His conversation did not sug-
gest to Detectives Cox and Berman, who
were called to take charge of him, that
he was Of unsound mind. The appeal of
the Connersville man was pathetic one.
and they doubted If his statement that
he had been in the local hospital were
true.
Inquiry at the hospital developed that
a man named Lee Francis had been an
inmate and that he had been discharged,
Asylum Hospital for observation, and it
is possible that he will later be trans
ferred to the Government Hospital for
the Insane.
Woman, So, Also Taken.
Miss Matilda Wurdeman, fffty-eight
years old, was taken to the Government
Hospital for the Insane by policeman
yesterday afternoon. She was taken
from her room at 1917 18th street, COM
plant having been made to the police
and acting sanitary officer that her con-
duct indicated mental arrangement.
Two physicians were called to the
house to examine her. Later the neces-
sary affidavits were filed with Acting
! Sanitary Officer Lynn. 1t is said she was
nervous and hysterical when taken te
| the hospital.
James Morrow, fifty-eight years old
who came here three days ago from
Beaver, Pa, is under observation at the
Washington Asylum Hospital, the police
having arrested him in the northeast
section Of the city.
I'm going to marry Grover Cleveland S
daughter tomorrow" Is the statement at
tributed to him by the police.
Carried wedding" Clothes.
Morrow has new suit Of clothes with
him. He had bought them to serve as
his wedding garments, he told the police.
His relatives were yesterday notified of
his whereabouts.
Miss Mary E. Young. said to live at
South Wallingford, VT, was in a nervous
condition when taken to the Washington
Asylum Hospital yesterday for observa-
ton as to her mental condition. She
told the police that she had resided with
her sister, Mrs. c. p. Goss, in South
Wallingford. and the sister was notified
of her whereabouts.

Proposition Advanced.

In addition to these specific hygienic
needs of Washington. DR.. Scheres-
chewsky advanced several propositions
which, in his opinion, would tend to adj
vance the hygienic conditions Of the Dis
trict of Columbia and improve the gen.
oral character Of. the city's population.

Exhibit Of Great Value.

DR.. Schereschewsky last night declared
his belief that the health exhibit has
been Of inestimable value to the people
of Washington. because Of the fact that
it has awakened thinking people Of the
city to a realization of conditions Of the
existence of which they did not know.
ITO my mind" said DR.. Schereschew-
sky. 1.-The exhibition has established these
things as necessities for Washingtonians:
"First-That every home in Washington
and the District, as we'll as every other
building, should be examined periodically
as to its sanitary condition.
Second, that every typhoid fever case
should be quarantined SO as to make sure
that no bacilli are borne to others.
Third. that all milk should be treated
in q municipally-owned pasteurizing sta
ton, and In connection with this there
should be thorough inspection not only
Of milk, but Of all foods. as well as Of all
places where foods are prepared, such
as bakeries, ice cream manufacturers.
etc.
Fourth, Washington school children
should undergo medical inspection every
day. instead Of three times q week, as at
present.
Fifth. that the city should have an
adequate number Of school dental
clinics
