Sulphur Springs, Tex
Kenosha, Wis., Jan. 12.—The Rev.
James Morrison Darnell g^ve up his
pulpit here Monday, immediately after
Dorris Vaughn Darnell, the sixteen-
year-old girl he had married in Chi-
cago last November, had overruled his
objections and come here to join him
in his church work.
The night before Darnell learned
that his wife .was determined to come
here, Mrs. Ruth Darnell, to whom it
is said the minister had referred to
as his wife, left with her baby for her
home in Owatonna, Minn.
Darnell returned to Chicago with
his girl wife and is now at her home.
To the trustees of the church, it is
said, he- showed clippings from an
Owatonna paper announcing the birth
of a son to the Rev. James Morrison
Darnell and wife, and giving the date
of their marriage as October, 1913.
Darnell came to the Kenosha church
Nov. 1. He had served for a short
time as pastor of a church in Hinds-
dale, 111., and in Brooklyn, N. Y.
Ruth Soper Darnell and child came
a day or so later. She took up the
life of a pastor's wife and had a Sun-
day school class. In the meantime

what our great “Broken
Jim Edwards was young and frisky
and full of Old Nick. He was rid-
ing on a suburban train one day on
bis way to the city when an old gen-
tleman of eminently respectable ap-
pearance came into the car and took a
seat beside him. Jim was reading in
a morning journal an account of a
prizefight. The gentleman took from
his pocket a copy of the Missionary
Intelligencer, opened it and began to
peruse it
“Have you seen an account of the
bout between Andy Sheehan and the
Philadelphia Kid, sir?” asked Jim in a
deferential tone.
“No. 1 don’t read accounts of such
Inhuman trapsactions.”
“1 suppose you wouldn’t care to see
a fight of that kind. But don’t you
think if we kill off all blood spilling
affairs it’s bad for the military spirit?
We must have wars, you know, even
if to protect ourselves from a foreign
enemy, and If we young fellows should
get too soft we’d all have to knuckle
under In case of an invasion. For my
part I think the way the Kid stood up
against Sheehan was admirable. He
broke the big man’s Jaw and let a
pint of blood from his nose.”
. .At this the gentleman turned his
back squarely on the voting than ant!
buried himself in his journal.
Jim. who had been amusing him-
self with the old man. smiled inwaWt-
ly. much pleased at the shock he had
given him. When they reached the
city Jim waited till the passageway U
the door was cledred of the outgoing
passengers, then arose to go bimsel
On the seat beside bim be espied a
pocketbook. It must hare belonged to
the gentleman who had sat beside him,
and Jim hurried after him. but failed
to catch him. An examination of the
contents of the pocketbook revealed
the name of Howard Spingler and his
address, besides some $20 in bills. In
a pocket fry Itself was a small photo
graph of a girl evidently in her teens.
Jim fell in love with it on sight.
Instead of sending the find to the Ad-
dress Jim waited till evening, when he
thought be might<-possibly get 'sight of
the original of the photograph, then
wCnt to the house; rang the bell and
told the butler who answered It that
be would like to see Mr. Spingler. tie

Darnell received a daily letter
his Chicago bride, urging that she be
permitted to come. Darnell’s replies
told of the discomforts of his life
as a
roomer with his widowed cousin and
her child. . '
As a means of deferring further the
arrival of the Chicago bride, it is said,
Darnell wrote her of a. small epidemic
of Which he said he had become a vic-
tim, wrote that he was locked in an
isolation hospital and finally that his
cousin had lost her life through the
disease.?:'
Then Mrs. Darnell telegraphed that
she wohjd start from Chicago at once
for KenOsha. Mr. Darnell took Ruth
Soper Darnell and her baby to the
train bound for Minnesota. He met
his wife the next morning and ex-
plained thfe situation, which he said
was complicated but innocent She
was satisfied, but the trustees of the
church were not content The pastor
therefore tendered his resignation and
went to Chicago with his wife.

sat the owner of the poefcetbOok and
near by. doing some fancy work, the
girl, of the-photograph. When the old
gentleman saw the advocate of prize-
fighting he frowned. Jim handed him
the book and said:
“After you left the train this morn-
ing. sir, I found this where you had
been sitting. It contained your name
and address, so I am enabled to return
It to you.”
Mr. Spingler. without unbending,
took the pocketbook. He was too
much of a gentleman to examine the
contents to see that all had been re-
turned. but be was not cordial. He
simply thanked Jim and waited for
him to withdraw.
“Don’t yon think, father.” said the
girl, surprised at her father’s want of
warmth in acknowledging bis obliga-
tion. “that inasmuch as the gentleman
has taken the trouble to return your
pocketbook in person we should ask
bim to rest before going?”
The father’s mind was on Jim’s
prizefighting proclivities, and he was
not to be moved to any courtesy to one
of that kind.
“Young man.” be said. “1 have thank-
ed you for returning my pocketbook.
I do not offer you a reward, for you
do not look like one Who would accept
It Indeed, I Was surprised to meet
with one baving the appearance of a
gentleman advocating the barbarity of
prizefighting.”
Jim colored under the reproof to the
roots of his hair. He bad had his fun
with the old gentleman, and he was
now paying the price. The young lady
took pity oh him.
“Why. papa.” she said, “so many
persons take an interest in such mat-
ters that you can’t Marne one young
man for doing so. After ail, I don’t
think as many persons are killed In
the prize ring as at football, and yon
know you shouted and waved at broth-
er when he knocked down fire men
and broke the leg of one carrying the
ball to goal.”
Mr. Spingler looked embarrassed.
Jim. bestowing a silent blessing on the
young lady, with regained ^ courage
pushed on to undo the damage be had
done by bis facetiousness on the train.
“Ralph Spingler!” be exclaimed.
“The great Pennsylvania football
player?”
“My son.” said the old man proudly. .
“I’ve seen him play some of bis best
games. During his supremacy on the
gridiron there wss no man who could
down him. I congratulate you,* sir, on
having such a son.”
“You’ve seen him play!” exclaimed
the old man. his eyes lighting at the
mention of his son’s prowess
“Indeed I have. I witnessed the
game In which he fell—accidentally.
**f course—on Simpson and crushed
him. That was a glorious game. Your
noble boy carried the ball to goal
amid the huzzas of every person pres
ent”
“He won the game!” cried Mr Spin

That is the way Jim Edwards made

Once, by the edge o fa pleasant pool,
Under the bank, Wnere ’twas dark
and cool,
Where bushes over the water hung,
And grasses nodded and rushes swung
Just where the brook flowed out of
the bog—
There lived a gouty and mean old Frog
Who’d sit all day in the mud, and
soak,
And do just nothing but croak and
croak.
