 OFFICERS BELIEVE JOHNSON NEGRO IS
 RObbER SOUGHT Still Searching For Alleged Partner of Perpetrator of Crimes Committed the
 Past Month

City Detectives Moser and Brown are
 they arrested early yesterday morning, charged with the numerous brutal mur-
 ders and highway robberies in the city during the past month, is the guilty party. Johnson, however, has not been given an opportunity to make state ment yet.
 These murders and holdups have ter rorized the community. The assailant. who, the detectives claim, is Johnson,
 used in most cases a large hammer or heavy pipe to knock his victims in the head. They were rendered senseless and then robbed.
 Johnson, who is known as Slick" is a familiar figure in police circles. He has been arrested on other charges pre- viously.
 The highwayman has worked with a partner, according to Detective Moser. One of the negroes slips out ana does the hitting while both search the clothes of their victim quickly" said the detec- tive. 'In some cases, however, only one ! worked, the other acting as 'watc.l- out in case some one should come to the aid of the assaulted person. l '.The negroes worked in the early hours ! of the night chiefly because they knew no one expected to be held up at that hour. According to the information which we have Johnson was the chief of the gang. When Johnson sees we have the dope on him, believe he will confess to these crimes, and to number of oth- CTS"
 The partner of the highwayman is sup posed to have assaulted and robbed John Robertson another negro, yesterday morning in Fourth alley, between Twelfth and thirteenth streets, north. The negro was carried to the Hillman hospital and left on the doorstep by some unknown party. He regained conscious ness and gave police authorities de- scription of his assailant. The description fits that of the negro l now being sought by the police officers and detectives.
 l Robertson is the eighth victim Of the lhighwaymen Three deaths have resulted l from fractured skulls caused by blows on | the back of the head, while four more were seriously injured. All of the as- saulted have been hit in the back of the head with some blunt instrument. In most cases a hammer seemed to have been used.
 | Robertson was not seriously injured as only a glancing blow was struck.

LAWS FOR SABBATH
 DAY NOT ARBITRARY
Dr. Edmonds Discusses Sun day Observance in Sermon
 On 4th Commandment

"The Fourth Commandment was
 the subject of pr. Henry M. Edmons'
 sermon last night at the Lyric thea
 tre pr. Edmonds is delivering an
 address on each of the Ten Commando
 ments and the sermon last night was continuance of the series.
 Reading Matthew, 12-14, in which
 passage of scripture Jesus and His
 disciples are accused by the Fharisees
 of breaking the Sabbath. Dr. Edmonds
 based his sermon upon the reply given
 by Jesus, "The Sabbath was made for
 man, not man for the Sabbath"
 Relating the various customs in
 keeping the Sabbath in early Jewish
 wholly technical without spiritual
 side Dr. Edmonds spoke of the de-
 sire of God for principle always. never
 for technicalities in connection With
 service to Himself The law of the Sabbath day or Rest Day" is not an
 arbitrary law, but a law of life itself
 written in nature, in life, man and
 God working together.
 "The civic Sabbath spells rest and
 recreation for the toiler of the world" he continued. "The religious Sabbath
 is service and worship of God, the gaining of inspiration at the house of God for the better living of the other six days. The Sabbath of one day is undergoing vast changes and we must not expect to cram our own personal religious views about the observance of the Day of Rest down the throat of other men who have the same right to think and decide as to what consti- tutes the correct manner of spending his day as we have.
 Jesus said He was Lord of the Sab
 bath; He healed on that day and won the hatred of the Pharisees for His
 deeds of love and mercy. His was not the narrow, technical keeping" of the Sabbath in outward observance. Personally, I could not enjoy a pie ture show on the Sabbath Vt would go against the grain because of my early training; but can see and sym pathize fully with the view of other men who do not look upon the matter as I have been taught from childhood to think. The Sabbath day should be day of rest and the family gather 1 ing; not of restrictions but of privi- | leges, a day to love and look forward l to. And let us, while keeping the day of rest according to our own ideas, | have patience and sympathy with he who does not think that way. "Tolerance and kindlinenss was the spirit emanating always from the Lord of the Sabbath.
 1 '"The spirit of the law. not the let | ter, was His plea.'
 At the morning service. pr. Ed monds preached to a congregation a 1 beautiful sermon on Friendship, ' | based upon the story of David and 1 Jonathan.
