States Attorney Starts In

Young Travilah Man
CORONER'S JURY
MEETS TOMORROW
Second Verdict Will Be Rendered
In Case of Henson Poole, Found
Murdered in Cabin.

"The chain of circumStantiai evi-
de1ce points so strongly to the fact
that Ollie Harris knows more than
he will tell about the death of Hen
son Poole that we began this morn
ing to make a thorough investigation
of Harris movements, since July 2t,
the night that Poole was last seen
alive.
1--WE believe that this probe may
shed light on the murder of Poole,
as we'll as determine the reasons for
Harris attack on his aunt, Mrs.
Clara Harris"
This is a statement made this
morning by States Attorney Bowie
Waters, of Montgomery county,
Nd.
Mr.. Waters spent several hours in
conference with Sheriff Mullican,
who returned to Rockville this
morning after taking Ollie Harris
to the Baltimore city Jail.
ANOTHER SESSION.
This afternoon the States attor-
ney, the sheriff, and justice of the
peace. John Hall, who have direct
jurisdiction over the Travilah dis
trict, where Poole was murdered,
will be present at a second ses-
sion Of the coroner's jury, set for
tomorrow.
II is expected that evidence viii
then be presented that may result
IN a second verdict naming Ollie
Harris in connection with the muir
der.
The announcement made this
morning by DR.. W. T. Pratt, OF
Potomac, Nd. that he has. located
the three bullets in Poole's skull
and that they were % caliber,
adds another link to the evidence
which seems to involve Ollie Har-

These bullets are of the same calibsr
as those used when Harris attacked

day.
That the two assaults were committed

At Kupahar India, $4,000 was expended
and salaries got 81 ,257 of that The women's

Did you ever hear of any such system as
that before? Is there anything in the Bible
commanding us to rake and scrape $4,000 out
OF the pockets of our home folks and carry it
Oft to India to furnish free homes for desti
tute women and children? Have we no desti
tute women and children of our own flesh
and blood, whose claims upon us are superior
TO those OF these brown people of India?
At Mahoba, India, the sum of $500 was
dlsbursed last year by this Mission Board.
vi that amount, upwards of $4,000 were alb
sorbed by salaries. The Hindoo orphans cot
S2,472.35, the schools cost 1872; the hospitals
S657; egangezistic aoorh cost only S898.
Can Mr. IoWson, or any one else, defend
that system of foreign missions? IF you will
examine the reports of the various Mission
Boards, you will find facts that are equally
startling and disquieting.
At Maudha, India, the sum of $3,92143
was expended last year Salaries took
81, 800 of it; the boys orphanage cost $3.50,
medical supplies were given away to the
amount of $780, eOangeZiStic ac0rk got on1y

At Pendra Road, India, $4,000 were ex-
pended. Medical supplies to the amount of
$685. were given away; travelling expenses
amounted to $500. Mr.. and Mrs Medson
drew $1,000 for themselves, and $500 for their
chlldren the amount spent IN eya1oqezistic

In the negro colony Of Jamaica belonging

penses were $4,000, the travelling expenses
were $2O7,-leaving a little less than $4,000
to be applied to what is called in the report
mission expenses.
In Mexico, American Christians spent
S27 900 last year. Of that sum- $4,000 were
devoted to evangelistic work, $4,000 Ground

cans; more than $4,000 in rents and property

Here I Come Again, Brother
1OzgSOw

In his seven column article, in the Advo-
cate, the Rev. w. E. Towson endeavors to do
what the Rev. DR.. Paul Wakefield himself has
ceased to try to do,--clear himself from the
horrible admission which he made in his lee
ture last June at Charlottesville, Indiana.
MIR. IOWsOn IS welcome to find as many
points OF resemblance between me and an
owl as he likes: the subject under discussion
IS too important to waste any time on a triv-
lality like that. The question is, whether I
am as ignorant of Foreign Mission methods
and OF home conditions as Mr. Towson pre-
tends to think that [ am.
Has he read, for instance the report Of the
Christian Woman's Board of Missions for last
year! That is an organization whose head
quarters are at Indianapolis, and it publishes
a large magazine known as MISSIONARY
Tidimgs. Has Mr.. Towson seen the Novem-
Der, 1909, copy of this handsome, up-to-date
magazine? If not, [ advise him to get it, and
to study it carefully.
On pages 308-9-10 of the November Ms
saOn07y 1adl22gs are found some amazing
facts. For instance, at the station at Bilas-
pur, India, the sum of S8,866 was spent last
year, and only $181.5O was invested in evan
gellstic work. Over $4,000 were eaten up in
salaries; S2,733 In supporting Hindoo or
phans, S1,l75 In running hospital for sick
Hlndoos, and 1856 on the education of these
Hindoos.
Does Mr.. Towson, or any other minister,
approve of system of missionary expendi-
ture which allows less than 5000 for evan
gellstlc work out of total expenditure of
nearly $4,000? Where is the Scripture for
any such expenditure of American money?
At Bina, India, out of a sum total of
S4,364, salaries devoured $1,000, the schools
used 1923, medical supplies cost $500, and
e0angezastic aOOrh cost only $685.
Why should we be establishing orphan asv-
lums and widows homes in Hindustan. so
long as there is single white orphan or white
widow IN this country who is suffering for
the lack of a home?
At Calcutta, India, the total amount dis
bursed was something over $8,OO0 Of this
amount, eu0ngeziStic 2O0rh cost 0nZy S32O.21:
salaries took upwards of $780, the schools
cost $793; the medical supplies $3.50; the care
of lepers $500; travelling expenses 1910
Did Brother Towson know that the mis-
slonarles were conducting their work in that
way? Does he indorse that kind of foreign
missions? Does he think that the congrega-
lions of Georgia, and of other States in this
Union, ought to be saddled with the expense
of supporting the widows and orphans of
heathendom, and furnishing them with free
medicine and free medical service? Ought
the congregations of this country be made to
support the lepers of heathendom. when we
have old, manned and battered men and WON
en-some of them being the heroes of the
Confederacy- are in our midst, and
whose necessities are visible to our eyes every
day of our lives?
