CHESTER. Pa. March 3l.-An intensi-

in this city this morning in connection
with the Nicholson n-Hemminger revival
campaign, as n result of a powerful SER
mon on "a First Century Message to
Twentieth Century Christians" delivered
by the Rev DR.. William p. Nicholson at
the tabernacle last night
The evangelist directed an impassioned
attack against inactive Christians and
churches and church organizations which
are mere forms, and do not figure as
active working forces in fighting to de-
fend Gods kingdom.
Those who promote education, civic
reform, social uplift and anti-booze cru

the churches of this city? They surely
are not working. Where are they to-

gone to church on Sunday and put their
nickel on the plate, but their attitude
after that is, What more do you ex-

trial OF Jacob alias Doggy" Miller, con-

Detective Harry Tucker, Assistant Dis

present the case to the Grand Judy as at
first proposed, on Monday. Tucker, who
is In the Episcopal Hospital with bullet
near his spine. has surprised the doctors
with his vitality although he has not yet
recovered sufficient strength to permit
probe for the bullet, which at first caused
total paralysis
In all murder cases possessing the ele-
ments Of flrst-degree murder the accused
is entitled to challenge the Grand Jury.
This right can be exercised only at tho
bar as the talesmen are sworn in. AS the
present panel has been in service since
March 1t would be impossible for young
Miller to avail himself of his rights under
the law.
Miller is on the verge of a nervous
breakdown in his cell at Moyamensng.
Without the drugs which gave him the
false courage necessary to kill one de-
tCctlve and fatally wound another he has
been unable to sleep. Enforced medita-
ton over his crime has brought realZa-
tion of the seriousness of his plight and
he is now in deadly fear of the electric
chair. He is guarded constantly to pre-
vent him from making an attempt at
suicide.
