intend to carry on a work OF mission
airy education and personal evangei-
ism. We will not take collections
either for ourselves or the mission

Our aim is broader and more far
reaching; to set in operation agencies
that will result perhaps in millions

sionary work. We expect to hnd
those who will make their Wills in
favor of benevolent objects. others
who will take upon themselves the
support Of native missionary work

in missionary fields. We intend TO re-
commend finanial plans for churches
that have been found successful in
helping all benevolent causes. home
and foreign. We expect city missions
and home support to share in results
of our work.

Cause Of Drowning
Of Negro Fisherman

FREDERICKSBURG, Va. Oct. H.
Special telegram )--Word reached here
today telling of the drowning of an aged
negro fisherman in river in Lancaster
county, forty miles below Fredericks-
burg, as result of the collision of a
row boat with a gasoline launch operated
by William J. Bryan. jr., son of the Me-
braska statesman, who has been visiting
relatives In that section for some days.
So far as can be ascertained, the launch
accidentally rammed the boat, causing
the negro to be thrown into the water.
Being unable to swim the unfortunate
man quickly sank, despite the efforts of
young Bryan to save his life. Another
occupant OF the launch whose name has
not been ascertained here is said to have
also used every endeavor to rescue the
negro. 1t was several hours before the
body was recovered.
Bryan and his companion were exoner.
ated from blame at a coroner's hearing.
