. . SIX OF RICHMOND'S LEADING DOCTORS TAKE PART t VERDICT UNANIMOUS Regular Board Consisted of Dr. I. S.

r Harold, Dr. Johnston and Dr.

Davis. Six of Richmond's leading physicians and Judge Abbott and several witnesses have examined the Rev. Elwood O. Ellis and the unanimous verdict is that he is insane, suffering from paresis. Each of the six physi cians Drs. Harold, Grant, Stephenson, Johnston, Marvel and Davis, spent an hour with Mr. Ellis yesterday and satisfied themselves of his condition. This morining the examination requir ed by law was conducted by Drs. Harold, Johnston and Davis and Judge Abbott, while the other doctors were used as witnesses together with Samuel Cowgill, Myrtle Winslow (a sister) Joseph Mills and Arthur Ellis. The examination lasted some time and resulted in a uninamous verdict "if insanity, the kind of insanity re- ' suiting from paresis. The -inquest, was held in.. the office ' of Sqoirer.Ujbott. ' The .board recommended that Mr."- Ellis be confined in an asylum for treatment. Arrangements have been made to have Mr. Ellis taken to the sanitarium at Oxford, Ohio, today. . After the doctors had spent the greater portion of yesterday with Mr. Ellis he told Dr. Harold he thought he was thoroughly examined by the doctors. The action of the board will certainly be a great relief to the family and friends of Mr. Ellis, who have been suffering under the terrible strain for so long. COLORED B. Y. P. U. IN SESSION.

unacquainted with English, lind it possible to get along away from their own countrymen by use of the common tongue. For example, the other night a reporter wanted to interview an Italian woman in Brooklyn who spoke no English. A German priest, ignorant of Italian, offered to help. He found an xtalian boy just two weeks in this country, hailed hi min Latin and pressed him in as interpreter. The reporter would ask a question in English, the priest would turn it into Latin, and the boy would put It to the woman in Italian. The answer would travel back from Italian to Latin and thus to English. The priest and the boy kept it up for for a quarter of jn hour and were never stumped once., "I use Latin in a third of my parish work," said the priest. ' It is really of more practical use to me than any living tongue except; English. OF C. G. & R. ISSUED AND IS BEING DISTRIBUTED TODAY.
