"Headed Toward Prohibition"

The following from the Boston Jour-
nal shows that one by one the news
papers of the country are accepting
the evidence TO which we have been
pointing for years:
IF there be those who still labor
under the delusion that the actual con-
troll Of the national Democracy is not
headed toward national prohibition.
their attention is invited to the fact
that Claude Kitchin, who will succeed
Oscar w. Underwood as House leader,
is one of the strongest and most
optimistic of national prohibitionists.
He says that national prohibition will
be a fact within fifteen years and,
possibly, ten years.
"kitchin comes from North Caro-
lima and practises what he breaches.
He laughs at the idea that William j.
Bryan will take the field as a candi-
date in 1915. Mr.. Bryan. according to
Mr.. Kitchin, still believes that the
States should handle the liquor ques-
ton, and he furthermore declares that
Mr.. Bryan is loyal to Mr.. Wilson and
will demonstrate his loyalty In due
season.
Mr.. Wilson. Of course. like Mr..
Bryan. is opposed to national pro-
hibition, and likewise is opposed TO
suffrage as a national issue, but one Of
the most intelligent Of Massachusetts
Democrats. who has been in Washing
ton this winter and has sounded
Democratic sentiment there. declared
yesterday that the South is pointing
our party toward nationwide pro-
hibition, and she will split the party
wide open before she gets through"

At what time of the year does cider
cease to be sweet and become intoxi-

There is no fixed time. 1t is de-

the cider comes from press. The per-

court, schemed how he might get
possession of Theresa, according to
the girls story.
He visited her at the Chicago In
dustrial school and claimed to be her
brother. Before she was Ii years old
he went into the juvenile court, where
Theresa's brother had been less than
a year before, and claiming to be that
brother, he stated he was in a posi-
ton to take care of the child and
asked her release. 1t is alleged he
forged her brothers name and with
this trivial formality, and with appa-
rently no investigation regarding the
identity of the man who asked pos
session of a child, the juvenile court
surrendered the 13-year-old Theresa
to thetender mercies of the man who
desired illicitly to possess her.
Theresa declares that for six
months he had illicit relations with
her, which, according to the law, is
crime against childhood, and that
at the end of six months he grew
afraid he might be discovered and
decided to marry her for his own pro-
lection.
Having so easily duped the juvenile
court, Theresa says he wasn't the
least bit awed by the marriage license
bureau. He went there and declared
Theresa was 16, and when the clerk
refused to issue the license unless
the guardian or brother of Theresa
would give his consent, Dominick is
alleged to have found an obliging
friend to help him out of this little
difficulty with similar forgery to
that practiced in the juvenile court
and he married Theresa.
Once he married her, she claims, =
he began to practice consistent bru-
tality, that he beat her mercilessly
and abused her in ways that cannot
be repeated. He ended by injecting
Theresa with what is called in polite
circles the social evil disease

Theresa Devino was IL years old
and an orphan when her brother dis

ter parents with no questions asked,
according to bill filed by Jeanette
Bates and Alice Thompson, attorneys
for the girl, who seek to have her
marriage annulled.
The story of a crime against child

its existence is necessary for the pro-

So he took his troubles to the ju-

to take care of her. And they agreed

From Ciergyman.

Chicago Jan. 20 - Doris Vaughn
Darnell was granted an abolute divorce
Yesterday from her husband, the Rev.
James MORRISON Darnell. She was
given $500 alimony, 800 was allowed
as solicitors fees and the defendant
was ordered to pay the court costs.
Her maiden name was restored
The suit for divorce vas based on
statutory charges. No effort was made
to defend Darnell from the charge
that he and another woman had lived
together as man and wife directly fol-
lowing his marriage to Miss vaughn.
Darnell resigned his pulpit in Keno
sha, Wis, church after ugly stories had
begun to circulate regarding his mari
tai activities. Investigation showed
that he had married or pretended to
marry three and possibly four women.
Four witnesses were heard in the
divorce suit, which was before Judge
Walker They were Mrs Darnell. her
mother and Mrs. Catherine Hum
phreys and her son, from kenosha.
Both of the latter testified that War
nell had lived at their home with
woman and her baby. who were
known as Darnell's wife and child.
Mrs. Darnell testified that she had
once visited Darnell in Kenosha, and
that he had admitted to her he was
living with another woman.
Mrs. Anna Vaughn, mother Of Doris,
testified to the same effect.
Judge Walker granted an Injunction
restraining Darnell from calling upon
or annoying Doris Vaughn, after il
had been represented to him that the
young minister had been making life
burden for his young wife.
Darnell and his father. Milton OAR
nell, of Peoria. conferred with Assist
ant States Attorney Case. Later Mr.
Case declared that unless something
substantial appeared the case would
| be dropped.
| The elder Mr.. Darnell said he be-
lieved his son ought to take care Of
the woman and baby with whom he
had lived in Kenosha, and that he
would take steps to see that he did 30.
