LACK OF UNITY HURTS CHURCHES SAYS BENNETT

Scoring ministers for lack of unity In saving touts and reiterating his , statement that the tabernacle meetings being conducted were non-sectarian in purpose, . Evangelist Rollin Bennett spoke last night at the services in the Central Christian church. He maintained that sectarianism is one of the biggest sins of the -world and that a soul saved at the tabernacle was as good as a soul saved in other churches anywhere else. If the ministers would stop spitting at' one another and would become as Interested in saving souls as they were In keeping their churches alive, more could be done in extending the kingdom of God, the evangelist said. . Rev. Bennett declared that if he stayed in Richmond four weeks more, he would continue to beat the church members over the head for their indifference. "You church members talk about preaching sin. No evangelist could clean you up if he stayed ia your city four weeks. If we had as 'much Christianity as we have churchanity, some of the sinners might be saved said the evangelist. A feature of the service last night was the duet of Mr. and Mrs. D. Lee Fltzpatrick in a variation of "Rock of Ages.". R. E. Mitchell, the chorus leader, meets the children at 4 o'clock this afternoon. TRAFFIC PATROLMAN TO TALK AT REVIVAL Tony George, traffic policeman in Marion, Indiana, former sheriff of! Grant county, and known throughout the northern part of the state, who incidentally weighs 350 pounds, will probably be the speaker at the afternoon service next Sunday of the tabernacle meeting conducted by Evangelist Rollin A. Bennett and his party. Patrolman George has become an . interesting speaker, Rev. Bennett says, with his consistent appearance before revival meetings, in which he urges people to follow the course he took in confessing his sins.

PRISONER CUTS

Continued Frm Pap One.) for longer-time to secure recommendations of character. He is a sheet metal worker by trade, and la skilled in the use of tools. The method of escape waa almost identical with that of Locke. He cut one of the Iron ban at the base of the chimney, which ia used for a ventilator In the summer. The bar la. one and a half inches thick and was cut one-half way through and broken the other half. It was cut in only one place, and as soon as this waa done it dropped from the socket With the bar out of place, the hole through which Miller crawled waa one foot wide and eight inches high. Makes Rope of Sheet.' A rope, made of a woolen blanket and two sheets, was tied to an iron rod in the inside of the chimney and suspended on the outside. The top of the chimney Is about twenty feet from the roof. It is not known how he got off of the roof, but it is presumed that he dropped eighteen feet from the roof in the rear of the jail. Sheriff Steen believes that it would have been impossible for Miller to work without some of the prisoners bearing him. Consequently, be believes several 'of the inmates assisted in the escape. According to the stories of several of the prisoners, the first they knew of the escape was "when several bricks fell down the chimney. The fact that the bar was only cut naif way and that the other half had to be broken makes the stories of the prisoners seem Implausible. "After we heard the bricks fall, we pounded on the door for a half hour before the sheriff came," said one of the prisoners this morning. Turnkey Morgan said that he made his rounds about 10 o'clock and there seemed to be no disturbance of any kind. He then went to the "look-out' room, a small room. pear the ceiling, outside of the prison proper, which Is connected with the Jail room by a small window. He said that be stayed in this room fifteen mlnutea after the lights were put out, and everything seemed to be quiet. He then went to his home, and no one knew anything about the escape until Sheriff Steen was awakened by the pounding on the prison door at 1:30 o'clock. The jail is so arranged that none of the prisoners can be locked in their cells. The prisoners are allowed to walk around the prison room at night. Miller's cell was on the south side of the second tier. He made bis escape from the opening on the ground floor on the north aide. Sheriff Steen did not disturb any of the apparatus used by Miller in his escape, and the rope made of bed clothing is still hanging from the top of the chimney. The grand jury will investigate the conditions at the jail tomorrow.. When John Locke made his escape the bars were much smaller in diameter than the present bars. "Miller was a pretty slick crook," said Sheriff Steen this morning. He knew what he was about: Soft soap MURRAY'8 Special Circus Day.
