STATE SHOULD
OWN ISLANDS
Attorney General Brown Rules
Against Private Ownership
in Navigable Streams

An opinion which will likely have
direct bearing upon applications Tor
patents from the Comm onwealth for
islands in the Susquehanna opposite
this city, was to-day given by Attorney
General Brown to James II. Craig,
Deputy Secretary of Internal Affairs
and secretary, Of the state Board OF of
such matters. The opinion was. given
in an application for an island known
as Catfish island in the Susquehanna,
in Lancaster county. which 1t was
claimed had been farmed for twenty
one years and which had been IN un-
disnuted possession of 4 man.
Mr.. Brown says that II Is the settled
law of this Commonwea that no title
to islands in the great rivers of the
State of Pennsylyania can be ACQUIRED I
by settlement" He declares further: II
think it is not for the best interests
Of the State, to allow the ownership I,lo
of the islands in the great navigable
highways of the State. to be acquired
by private individuals"
The opinion declines to sign an order
for ADVERTISEMENT and ends the matter,
as without it no patent can be Issued

FANCY NAMES
TEND TO LEAD
GIRLS ASTRAY /?
County Prosecutor Says More
Gladyses, Geraldines and
Claires Appear


If pretty little Gladys Stevens had
turned up in March quarter sessions
juvenile court to-day Additional Law
Judge S. j. NJ. McCarrell and an in
terested courtroom might never have
learned Assistant District Attorney +.
B. Wfckersham's views as TO whether
or not Gladys, Geraldine, Claire and
such are superior to good, old
fashioned Mary and Sallie and Ruth
as proper names for girl.
Mr. Wickersham prefers Mary, Salie
and Ruth any day to Gladys, Geraldine
or Claire.
The county prosecutor thus eX-
pressed himself this morning when
Gladys, probationer, failed to appear.
"Gladys! Ny. goodness" said the
assistant district attorney. 'it seems
10 me that folks might just as readily
call girls by something else than these
fancy names. I really believe, your
Honor, that more of the girls who
appear in this court are Gladys and
Geraldines and Claires than Marys and
Sallies and Ruths."
The story of wayward 15-year-old
girl who was sent to the House of
Refuge revealed a little youngsters
elopement to Hagerstown way back
on March 13 that was nipped in the
bud by the youthful groom-to-be. In
brief, he failed to keep his date. The
girl was arraigned on an incorrigibility
charge. Her mother tainted when the
court imposed sentence.
A 7-year-old witness who was so
small she had to be placed on a chair
so Judge McCarrell could see her over
his roll-top desk, created little diver
sion. She graVely told of having seen
a small negress. the daughter of a
neighbor, pick the lock of her mothers
trunk with a shoe buttoner. The small
colored defendant was probated.
While Judge McCarrell conducted
Juvenile sessions. President Judge
Kunkel heard adult probationers'
court.
Able Baker. who has owed about
$63.6S costs for more than a year, was
in court to explain his failure to settle
the account. He said he hadn't the
money, but promised to square him
self financially with the county as soon
as he can.
Jerry Mccoy, aged ~, and an upper
end woman were both fined S25 and
costs for marital infidelty. Because
of the age of the defendants, Judge
Kunkel said the jury might have ac-
quilted them

one of three operations against the
Verdun stronghold which the Germans
have put into motion within the space
of day. Northeast of the fortress
they twice attacked at Douaumont
with liquid fire, but. according to the
French war office, were both times
beaten off.
Last night they developed renewed
activity on the edge of the Woevre
plain, beginning a drive against the
French right flank and attempting to
take the fortifications east of Haudio-
mont. about nine miles southeast of
Nerdun. Here, too. they were unsuc-
cessful in their effort to advance, Paris
declares.
Claim 32S Prisoners
Gerlin announces that in the cap
turc of the village of MalanColtrt,
which if declares was carried by storm,
32S prisoners were taken. Defensive
positions on both sides of the village
also fell into German hands.
In a notable aerial battle near Arras
between German and British aviators
three British biplaues were brought
down. In this air fight the veteran
German aviator. Lieutenant Immel-
mann. brought down his thirteenth
hostile machine.
Russ Attacks Cease
Attacks by the Russians in the east
ern war zone have ceased, but the
German lines along the fronts of the
recent engagements are being SUBJ
iected to violent bombardment. Petro-
grad has reported that a general thaw
has set in along the entire front
which doubtless is impeding OPP
erations.
Indications to- day are that the strike
in British munitions plants on the
Clyde, which has been holding up the
supply of big guns for the army, is on
the verge of collapse, according to a
London dispatch.
