DR.. Crr Opens Services in
Market Square Church

Last night at Market Square
church, Prof. Harry 2. Armstrong
conducted the opening services. By
his splendid leadership in evangel-
istic singing he is getting wonderful
results from the audiences, Then his
own solo is always an attractive
feature. DR.. Orr preached a sermon
which was stirring and convincing.
He used the scene at the grave OF
Lazrus, where Jesus wrought the
great miracle of resurrection. He
spoke about people seeing the glory
of God if they would but believe. He
asked for belief in the chief things
of religious faith.
Then he urged the rolling away
of stones that keep God from doing
His great work. Stones OF prejudice,
criticism, jealousy, unforgiving spirit
and any one of the many things
which can hinder and do hinder the
manifestation of the spirit in mighty
power.
Services will be held each after
noon at 8 o'clock. and each evening
at $50 o'clock.

Arrived at the inspectors office
about noon: he found him in earnest
discussion with Sir William Beau

the murder and Its participants. Both
gentlemen were his personal friends
and, knowing his deep interest in the
case,. they readily admitted him to
their circle. They went over the evil

gret that anything SO unfortunate
should have occurred to stir up the
embers of that race antipathy which
he was trying to quench. He was not
perfectly satisfied with the case as
Brownlow had presented it, and felt
very sure that the evidence was far
from satisfactory or complete. To his
MIND the attempted crossing Of the
1uneraI procession was, of course,
only the ignorant and innocent act
of sailor, while he quite appreciat-
ed the Irritation it would cause to
the native bearers and mourners.
That they should have attacked the
white man In their anger he could
understand. but the choking him to
death with mud and sand was pun
ishment far more terrible than he
had ever heard of in recent years.
There must have been some reasons
for 1t in the native mind. The more
ne thought of 1T, the more mysterious
1t seemed. He pondered over it till

back the bolts when he saw visitor

cradle Old One to receive the lady.
He ushered her to the principal seat
in the lower room, bowling most re-
spectfully, and repeating the ancient
greeting: "Graclously deign to take
the higher throne"
The tea and pipes were quickly
brought, and after the usual formali-
ties, the object of her visit was In
troduced. Amid sobs and tears she
rehearsed to the famous detective the
story of the funeral and of all the
unfortunate consequences that fol-
lowed the encounter with the sailor
at the country crossroad.
