them, consented to the exercise Of
them. and il so. will consent on the
part of the state be effectiye?"
Answering his own first question,
Campbell said there was nothing to
be found in the constitution giving
congress authority to create corpor-
ations for any purpose, though it has
the implied authority to create them
as appropriate instruments for car
rying into effect the powers of the
government.
mo one Will contend" he said.
"that the right TO act as trustee. exc
cutor, administrator or registrar Of
stocks and bonds is in any sense nee
essary to the administration of the
affairs of the federal government.
Neither is such right an integral or
essential part of the business carried
on by national banks II is not a
banking function,
Therefore the section cannot be
sustained upon any theory of inn
piled powers.
He disposed OF his own second
question by declaring congress could
not delegate authority to the reserve
board to create a corporation or add
10 a corporation powers, because
such an act involves legislative dis
erection and can only be exercised by
the legislature.
As for the various states giving
consent-his third question-he dc
clared.
ITO do so would, in effect, be 20
permit the state legislature to amend
the federal constitution. In other
words, it is impossible to give effect
to the section without violating the
constitutional rights Of the states.
Two sovereign powers cannot exer-
else exclusive authority over the same
object any more than two solid bodies
can occupy the same space al the
same time.
The answer to the third question
must be that no state has consented
to the exercise of the powers speel-
fled in the section upon the terms
and conditions there stated, and that
consent on the part of the state
even ii granted, would be ineffeet-

Before the theory of section IL

WORKMAN KILLED WHEN :
WRENCH TOUCHED RAIL.

Accidentally touching the third rail
of the Electric Line, while working on
a bridge neal Pleasantville, Sayette
Cobb, of Atlantic City, an employee
of the railroad, was shocked to death
before his fellow. workmen's eyes.
Cobb and several other men were
making repairs to the bridge. He
was sitting with his feet hanging in
the water when his iron wrench came
in contact with the deadly third rail.
Without making a sound he slipped
between the ties and into the deep
water beneath.
Walter Lation, of Avalon, who was
working beside Cobb, saw him DIS
appear. He Immediately plunged in
to the water and dived for him. At
ter several attempts he succeeded in
bringing the body to the surface and
the other workmen quickly dragged
both ashore.
Cobb appeared to them to be un-
conscious. Hailing a passing Fast
Shore car, they placed him aboard
and FASTENED to the office of Drs. Fish
and Munro. They worked over the
man for over an hour, and when he
failed to show any signs of life they
pronounced him dead. 1t was their
opinion that he died instantly when
he received the 700 volts which the
third rail carries.
Cobb had been in the employ of the
railroad company for a number of
years. He was 40 years old, and is
survived by a wife and three children.

REV. LOUIS A. PARSELS
FINISHED LIES LABORS.
Nearly Two Thousand Persons Viewed
the Remains of Popular Pastor.

Less than twelve hours after his
last sermon, a beautiful word picture
of heaven, had been delivered at Heb
ron, Nd, the Rev. Louis Adams Par
sells, widely known Prohibitionist and
reformer, was found dead in bed at
his home in Philadelphia on Friday,
Aug. 9th, by his wife. He was 81
years old, and was born at Smiths
Landing, a part of Pleasantville, N. J.
The sermon or heaven was his last
work. At the camp-meeting he felt
too weak to deliver it himself, and
so it was read by his wife. He then
returned to Philadelphia and retired
early. Mrs. Parselsa arrived home
and found her husband dead.
Doctor Parsels had been pastor IF
the Methodist Episcopal Church at
Twelfth and Ogden streets, Philadel-
phia, for two years. Previous to that
he held charges at Malvern, Wayne,
East Bangor and the Bethany, Eigh-
teenth Street, Fitzwater and Wesley
churches in Philadelphia. He was a
graduate of Dickinson College, Tay-
lor University, Pennington Seminary
and Drew Theological Seminary.
Seven children survive. The old
est, Louis Adams Parsels, Jr., is a
resident of Iowa. DR.. Parsels was a
member of the Royal Arcanum and
the Masonic lodges of East Bangor.
Funeral services were held on Mon
day night at the Twelfth street
church, conducted by the Rev. Drs.
Frank P. Parkin and Charles NJ. Bos-
well, and interment was at Norris
vile Pa. About eighteen hundred
persons viewed the remains at the
church and thousands were turned
away by the police. Rev. Parsels was
so widely known and loved that the
funeral was one of the largest ever
held in Philadelphia.
John Parsels and William B. Par
sells, of Pleasantville, are brothers of
the deceased.
