TURN OUT THE RED LIGilTS' ft The raid on the Tenderloin sectiou yesterday by the sheriff and his depu ties is a right step in the right direc tion, and will meet the approval of every good citizen who is acquainted with the conditions asNhey now exist 'in that restricted area. It is an open, notorious, and blatant fact , that every house in that vicinity, in additionjto being a house -of ill fame, is practically an open bar room where whiskey can be secured when all other sources have run dry. This fact alone should cause -the citizens of Vhe community to de mand that the authorities take the necessary steps to curb the evil, and to rid the city of these hell-holes which 'Imve no otheV mission than the drag1 4 ginfc down of the morals and the char-' acter of th? young men of the town. The county authorities are to be commended for having started the clean-up, and it is to be hoped that the city officials will take cognizance of the situation and vuse the power with which they are vested to rid the town once for all of this devouifg evil that robs men of their honorJftMd their integrity, and strews horror and tragedy in its path. The community has paid the past for its slackness, and the com munity should take, care lest it suffer more from slackness and lethargy in this respect. jk$'M : 7 . Ti A few days ago tie wai &i I1 of Russia, autocrat of all si-ey-ed; a few hours ago another was King Constantine, the proud monarch of glorious land of the ancient Greeks. Now the one is just Iplain Nicholas Romanoff, and the cither just plain Constantine. In timej perhaps, Nich- olas may come to be known as "Old Nick," and it may be that Constan tine may yet grace the kitchen range of some small time Greek restaurant. Truly, -'the world do move," and the Fates may still have their hardest blows of adversity to deal to those two once proud monarchs who stood in the way of the fulfillment of the vision of Democracy of the world and freedom to mankind.

Not only was the full loan subscribed, but far and above the amount sought by the gov ernment in its effort to provide the sinews-of war for itself and its al lies. It spells the doom of the Ger man WarLord so unmistakably that. it 'can be likened to a pyramid under which will be crushed to dust the Mad Man of Europe who thought to Vule the world by the sword.

Trinity Colt lege, as the result of a controversy growing out of the alleged 'desecration . ' .' . of-the American flag by members., of the 1917 graduating class, during their s ' ' : sophomore year. A rag containing the-i numerals 4'1017". was fastened on an American fag. Collectively and indi vidually the members of : the class denied knowledge of it, but are since said to have contesse1, under a prohi ise of immunity. At the4 time the Bishop, in an address at chapel, de nounced the members. The class then adopted resolutions resenting his re marks as the intrusion of an outisder. At the commencement , this ; spring, Bishop lyilgo declined to sign the di plomas of any' male members of tne class, because they knew of the action of the guilty members. , JILTED GIRL SUES 84-YEAR. 1 - OLD MAX FOR ONE , MILLION (By United Press) NEW YORK. Before night the togenariaan. John B. Manning, wijl know whether his admitted jilting of pretty 28 year old Honora May 'O' Brien will cost him 'the million dol lars which the plaintiff insists may mend her shattered sensibilities. The 84 year old defendant appeal ed in the, court room almost jaunty after his spirited word battle during, the night session. On cross eamiui tion he admitted that much .of the palsy with which his hand had- shak en, and much of his halting jstep was assumed because he was told that the Jury might be impressed by the con irast between the , fresh, vigorous, rosy-cheeked Honora and his own de crepit old age. The attorney for the plaintiff forc ed Manning to admit that he didn't consider himself "a feeble old man," and that he had chased a photograph er half a block and beaten him with a cane. (x t Manning confessed that he had kiss ed the fair defendant, "but not as many times, as it is a sin to kiss girls to get them to thinking about me." Pointing to Miss O'Brien as a mer cenary woman, eager to sully tne holy bonds of matrimony by uniting her youthful body with the wothered body of an old man." Martin W. Little, counsel for the defense,- demanded tha? the jury deny renumeration. "There wjs no love there. She admitted it to her brother even before the mar riage date was set, and consulted a lawyer concerning the settlement be fore that time," counsel stated in his speech to the jury. The Oldest Joke. Johnny Hoy claims that the oldest joke is one about the farmer's wife who went to the door and found an agent. "Can I sell you an extermi nator for vermin?" asked the agent "No," said the farmer's wife, who had been pestered to death with agents. "We have all the vermin we need." Milwaukee Sentinel.
