DARNELL GETS THREE YEARS
Marrying Parson'' Sentenced to
Leavenworth Prison

Chicago, May 21.-The efforts of
James Morrison Darnell, "the marry
ing parson," to get new trial were
denied yesterday by Federal Judge
Geiger, in Milwaukee. Darnell was
sentenced to three years in the Fed
eral prison at Leavenworth, Kan, for
"white slavery"
The specific charge against him was
the transportation of Ruth Soper, a
former University of Chicago student,
from her home in Owatonna, Minn., to
Chicago, and thence to Kenosha, Wis.
The girl, whom he made several at
tempts to marry since the first up
heaval that ousted him from his Ken
osha pastorate, was the chief, though
an unwilling, witness against him.
DarnHl's experience included his
marriage to Miss Doris Va,nghn, II
years old, 1901 Oakenwald avenue,
Chicago; his subsequent removal to
Kenosha, where he introduced Ruth
Soper as his wife; his divorce from
Doris Vaughn Darnell, and finally his
arrest and trial for violation of the
Mann act, because of his relations
with Miss Soper.

LIGHT co. OPPOSES A TAX
Asks Court to Decide Whether It Must
Pay on Steam Heat Business

Disclaiming liability for part of
the State tax levy made by the Audi
tor General, the Harrisburg Light and
Power Company has appealed to the
Dauphin county court asking that
tribunal to determine whether the
State shall be paid $2,479!56, the full
amount levied by the Auditor General,
or $2,165.91, the amount which the
company has offered to pay.
The dispute arose out of the ques-
ton of whether the Light Company is
required to pay tax on the gross
earnings of the Harrisburg Steam Heat
and Power Company, whose business
has been acquired by the electric con
eern. The steam heat company prior
to consolidation, did not pay State
tax, it is alleged, and it is held the
light company cannot be taxed for
that business now. g.

THE USE OF SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR

Soap should be used very sparing.
ly, if at all, if you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alkah. This dries the scalp, makes
the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil;
(which is pure and greaseless) it is
cheaper and better than soap or any.
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough

water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy ,lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.

CAN LEVY ON MANS BOOTS
Ruling in Labor Claim Against Rose
Tree Member

Media, May 21-You can sell a
man boots in this State to pay a
labor claim, and the exemption law
cannot save him paying the bill. This
was decided by Judge Isaac Johnson
in an opinion handed down in suit
brought by Thomas E. Frazier against
st. George Bond, member of the
Rose Tree Fox Hunting Club.
Frazier was employed as man-of all
work by Bond and worked for FIVE
months. He was to be paid $40 a
month, and at the end of five months
he quit because, as he said, he had been
paid no wages. He brought suit before
magistrate and obtained judgment.
Execution was taken on personal prop
erty, but all except riding boots, rid
ing coats, driving gloves and men 8
clothing was claimed by>Mrs. Bond.
Sheriff John Hepburn, Jr., upon ad-
vice of counsel, refused to levy on the
clothing. The matter was taken before
the court on a rule to show cause why
the defendants claim. for exemption
should not be disallowed, and the court
ruled that under the law there is no
exemption when debt is for manual
labor.

 Introducing his statement, MT. Bry- an graphically describes the horrors and afflictions of war and says:
 Neutral nations cannot look on with indifference-the ties that bind them together are too strong, the re- lationship too intimate. This is es- peeia1ly true of the United States. We have a. composite population-every nation of Europe having contributed hbePa11y to our citizenship. These our countrynen, themselves, born abroad or immediately descended from foreign born ancestors, cannot but take lively interest in the conduct as well as in the results of the war and a still larger circle shares the concern of those directly connected. Not a soldier falls on either side but the sorrow expressed in his home finds an echo at some freside in the United States
 Aside from sentimental considera- tions,s MT. Bryan asserts, neutral na- tions suffer serious disturbance be- cause of the war.
 Nearly every neutral nation finds new domestic problems thrust upon it and old problems made more difh- cult the statement declares. ''No American citizen can note without deep concern the manner in which war questions have intrudeds them selves into our pe1icies-overshad adow- ing economic issues and stimulating agitation in favor of enlarged proper tions for military and naval Pur- poses
 At some length, MT. Bryan refers to Interruptions to neutral commerce, derangement of business and conse- quent readjustments and speaks Of scarcity of American ships as one of the greatest ennbarrassnents to the United States.
 t'The neutral nations are put to a great expense to preserve neutrality and are constantly in danger of be- ing embroiled in the war without in- tention or fault on their own part '' he declares. tsFhe rules of interna- tionaI law seeNEsto have been made for the natieg4aat war rather than for the natiGTsNat peace.
