CITY DETECTIVES
ON MURDER CASE.
Dougherty Who Helped Solve
Brandon Mystery Called In
BY Local Authorities.
ISAACS' SHOES FOUND.
Negro Continues To Tell Con-
flicting Stories About His
Actions On Friday
Afternoon.

Baltimore Headquarters Detectives
DougheTty and Hogan, the former of
whom worked on the Brandon mur-
der here last August. have been call
ell in by the county authorities TO help
solve the murder of Miss Dora Ebert
at a lonely point on the Pennsylvania
Railroad, near Odenton. The detec-
tives after a lengthy -examina-
tion of Archie lsaacs, the negro held
under suspicion of committing the
crime. are today working hard run
ming out all the possible clues in con-
nection with the crime.
A further circumstance which, in
the opinion of the officials, tends to
more strongly connect Isaacs with the
brutal outrage was the discovery yes
terday of the shoes of Isaacs The
shoes were found near spring not far
from where the murder was commit
tey. They were located by Thomas
FairalI, a car inspector of the Penn
sylvania Railroad who was one of
the searching party which went out
to look over the ground.
On the shoes were a number of
spots which some believe are blood
stains. The authorities hope to estab-
lish a clue showing that the spots re-
ferred to were blood stains and that
Isaacs went to the spring to wash
them off
Following the action of Chief of
Police Pritchet in keeping Sheriff
Bells and States Attorney Green in
,>rt l., l.,
and after keeping his prisoner for
about nine hours before finally turn
ing him over to car conductor to
bring to Annapolis, the local authori-
ties thought it better to get trained
detectives to hunt out the clues.
Under the law passed by the War
Session of the Legislature, providing
for a special police force and Il spe-
cial police justice TO take care of
crime conditions Immediately ada
cent to the big army cantonment at
Camp Meade, these officers were
given exclusive jurisdiction. As a re-
suit, the work of the Sheriff and
States Attorney must, to a certain
measure, await Il call from the Of
fetal notification of crime from the
special officers.
Up to the present time no formal re-
port has been made by Drs. w. b.
Carr. of Washington, and Walton II.
Hopkins. of Annapolis. upon the
autopsy performed by them Saturday
afternoon. However, DR.. Carr who,
as cOroner's physician in Washington,
has had wide experience in such cases,
dents he had never see a human skull
so completely demolished as that of
Miss Ebert. The whole area of the
back of the head from about the crown
TO the neck was simply broken into
small bits

Little Billie Harrington, son of Gov

Governor and Mrs. Harrington to
throw open their official home to the
singers on this occasion.

THE great task of the government in this war is to
make the nation produce a sufficiency of food, sup
plies and munitions to provide for the men at the front,
and at the same time to prevent want at home.
NWar requirements are an immense drain on the re-
sources and man power Of the country. Not such as
the nation could not meet. But the elimination Of waste
of every kind, and the concentration of every bit Of
energy, effort and material upon the work of war is
necessary. Besides our own, the needs of our allies now
must largely be supplied from Americas shores.
0For many decades, America has been known as the ex-
~travagant, the spendthrift among nations. 1t now is
the task of the government to direct vast amounts Of
money and man power, formerly ~dissipated in the pro-
duction of Injuries and things unnecessary, into the
work of war; into the production Of things necessary to
supply those at the front and to feed and clothe those
at home.

money to produce. To provide these
things is the opportunity and duty of
those who do not offer their lives.
Winning this war is a matter of
money. When you buy Liberty
Bond it means money for the United
States treasury. During the coming
year, this nation must raise $24,000,-
100000. About $16,000,0 100000 of this
must be raised by loans and SS,000,-
100000 by taxation. If we do not raise
this money, the United States treas
ury will have failed. When the
United States treasury fails, the war
is lost. If the war is lost, democracy
IL lost-the world is lost.
Thus we get some idea Of what
each individual must do. He must
save, do without luxuries, he must get
along with what he has rather than
buy things that are not absolutely nec-
essary. He must do those things only
which are Of productive value. He
must simplify and cheaper his diet.
In short, he must in every possible
way use for his own comfort as little
Of the nations labor, time, and eff
cheney as possible. He must save
every cent Of money possible and losn
it to the Government. In this way
only can a citizen live UP to his patri-
otic duty and do his part towards win.
ming and ending the war.

America is the Atlas on which the

armies and, in addition, they must
maintain the armies of the Allies.
Never has so colossal a task fallen

in the history Of the world has any
nation been in a position to accom-
plish such task. America can do
all that she is expected to do, but
she can only do it if every citizen Of
this greatest republic does his full
share.
The war in Europe Is more than
the splendid army of young American
manhood fighting under our banners

1t is the express wish of the Central
Branch Of the N. A. A. C. P. that all

our race. l have therefore in con-
fornity with that desire received 100
buttons which will be sold to mem

cents (35c) each. The button is very
beautifully and artistically made and
one which every member should be
proud to wear. The Secretary will
always have number of these but
tons with him and will take no Of
Tense if stopped on the street or any
where else to purchase one. Let each
member have a button. Wear it in a
conspicuous place, be prepared to tell
what it stands for when questioned
and thus advertise the Association for

AGAIN IN CHARGE.

Many people insist that the Ninth
District is the best organized Of any
group Of states. Results seem to prove
it. The active workers in the Third
Liberty Loan campaign numbered over
thirty thousand out Of a little more
than s million people.
The men responsible to Washington,
the officers of the Northwest's finan-
cial army, are not taking the credit.
They only directed this great terri
tory's patriotic energies.
There have to be officers, however,
and everyone should know who they
are. The men and women who led to
victory in the Third Loan will be in
charge during the Fourth campaign
September 2Sth to October 3rd.
