WOMEN SPEAKERS.
MADE ILLBY TRIP
Two Besides Mrs. BOiSSe-
vain in Hospitals-An-
other COllapses

Mrs. Inez Milholland Boissevain was
not the only member of the Woman's
Hughes train party who broke down as
a result of strenuous campaigning in
the West. Miss Doris Stevens, it was
learned yesterday, went through the
campaign sustained by hypodermics
and is now in a California hospital I'M
dergoing an operation. For two weeks
before election she was obliged to live
in the institution, going out only when
she had a speech to make.
Miss Beulah Amidon, who took Mrs.
Boissevain's place in her unfinished
campaign through Arizona and New
Mexico, is also in hospital, and Miss
Emily Perry has collapsed in Washing
ton as a result of a severe attack of
heart trouble.
"When the men speakers go out on
such long campaign trips" said Miss
Alice Paul, national chairman Of the
Woman's party, yesterday, "they have
private cars and physical directors to
care for them. Our girls travelled on
small allowances, often taking upper
berths and going without many of the
comforts of travel. They had to travel
long distances at night to lose no time
during the day when they could be
making speeches"
Those of the Woman's party who
have been able to reach New York will
be entertained tonight at a dinner to
be given at the Women's City Club by
Mrs. William l.. Colt. Miss Paul, Mrs.
Harriet Stanton Batch, Miss Helen
Todd and Miss Kathleen Taylor will be
the guests of honor.
Miss Paul returned from her West
ern campaign yesterday, fully content,
she said, with the results of the
women's campaign against the Presi-
dent
"All we tried TO do was TO organize
a protest vote by women against Mr.
Wilson's attitude toward suffrage she
said. ain Illinois, the only state where
we really know how the women voted,
because there the women's ballots
were counted separately, 10000 more
women voted against Mr. Wilson than
for him"

The Synagogue in New York

The Spanish and Portuguese Congre-
CATION of Shearith Israel Synagogue,
Central Park West and Seventeen
Street. is the oldest Jewish congrega-
ton in North America. It's foundation
in 1866 marks the beginning Of Jewish
life in this country.
At first the congregation worshipped
in the loft of grist mill in Mill Street
NOW South William Street,. BY 1852
the first synagogue was dedicated on
the same site. II was rebuilt there in
1880 and again in 1918. In 1884 the
congregation moved to Crosby Street;
in 1860 to Nineteenth Street and Fifth
Avenue, and in 1897 to its present loca-
ton.
Within two years Of the foundation
If the congregation It's members had
obtained full civil and political rights
1856, which they jealousy guarded,
while remaining loyal to the Judaism
Of their ancestors.
From first TO last Shearith Israel, the
historic Jewish congregation of the
United States, has been honorably
identified with the best aspects OF
American Jewish life. 1t recently has
extended the following invitation TO all
Jewish people:
Unbroken Record of Loyalty
"Shearith Israel stands for a unique
and unbroken record Of two and a half
centuries Of loyalty 10 America and
American ideals and Jewish communal
duty we'll done, while in response TO
patriotic calls its members have sup
ported the government with their blood
and treasure in every crisis. 1t has
never been swayed by currents Of re-
form and change, but has stood con-
sistently and resolutely for the ancient,
sanctifed. historical tradition of Juda-
ism. Sephardim, Ashkenazim, Russian,
Oriental and American Jews all have
found and find in Shearith Israel an
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-11-17

answering, consecrated, enlightened,
traditional Judaism.
THE congregation cordially invited
the cooperation of those who stand for
enlightened, historic Judaism in Amer
lea. Membership or associate member
ship is offered on terms TO suit all, rich
and poor alike. Only with the CO.
operation Of those who value noble
past and who are Jealous for the future
Of historic Judaism in America at its
best can Shearith Israel continue its
wonderful tradition with increased
vigor. Would you not be glad to asso-
ciate yourself with a congregation en-
bowed with so honorable and consistent
a record? If so, will you not communi-
cate with the ministers or the officers
of the congregation
From the beginning Of its history
this congregation has welcomed Jews
from all quarters Of the globe. II has
never at any time differentiated be-
tween Jew and Jew.
Leader in Communal Institutions
Both the first German-Jewish con-
gregation in New York City, Bnai
Jeshurun. founded in 1925, and the first
Russian-Jewish Synagogue in the city
were aided in their establishment by
Congregation Shearith Israel.
Congregation Shearith Israel took the
leading part in the foundation Of the
older communal institutions. such as
the Mount Sinai Hospital (lS52), the
United Hebrew Charities (lS73), the
Hebrew Sheltering Guardian Society
(1s79). the Mount Sinai Hospital
Training School for Nurses (1SS2), the
Montefore Home (1Ss5), the Jewish
Theological Seminary (1SS6) and the
Orthodox Union (1S9S).
From 1855, when the founders OF the
congregation promised the city authori-
ties that the Jewish poor would not be
"A burden to the community, through
almost two centuries, during which the
congregation alone assumed all the
burdens of philanthropy among the
Jews OF the city, until the present day
the congregation has responded with
true Jewish spirit TO all calls Of Jewish
brotherhood.

yesterday to clear up the tangled ac-
counts covering his years OF steward

Hillis's mundane affairs.
For transactions in which more than
100000 changed hands, Ferguson
had only a stack Of bank books to
show. He said he had thought no
further records necessary.
DR.. Hills, pastor of the Plymouth
Church, Brooklyn, found himself seri-
ously embarrassed financially while
his business was in the hands of Mr..
Ferguson, a former president of the
church's board Of trustees, who acted
for him from 1910 to 1915. Directing
to the latter's accounting, the clergy
man had long been eager to hear from
him under oath.
Endeavoring to get to the bottom Of
the first transaction taken up, follow

tied himself with commission Of ST.

counsel for the clergyman, found him

BOARD Of Education to keep DR.. Will

thought the increase Of $500 sought for

was a triae sudden.
The amount used for the Cery sys-

there were other experts whose ser

WEST TO CELEBRATE HERE
Dinner for All from States That Helped
Reflect Wilson

The gentry from the tall grass who
had the temerity to contradict the peo-
nile of the East ard give Mr.. Wilson
four moro wears at the White House,
will celebrate their victory at IDOL
lar dinner" at the Grand Hotel to-
morrow night.
DR.. Cornelius Donovan, who has
charge of the affair, says that persons
from Democratic states as far West
as the Rockies will attend. He will
not object, however, if few New
Workers sneak in, so long as they mail
their requests for seats before this
evening. The dinner, DR.. Donovan an
nounces further, will be strictly farmer
fare, with cider and everything. There
will be no guests of honor, and the
speaking, if there is any, will be en-
tirely impromptu.
