to how a man can save money out OF

question arises, as TO how many men

DES MONIES, Sept l6.-"Reform
or -meve-eut of Des Moines before
Sept. Is" was the order that passed
through the red light" district OF
Des Moines. II came as the result OF
crusade started by the newspapers
here 10 days ago against an alleged
social evil trust" consisting of land
lords. professional bondsmen, money
enders and small merchants.
Unlike most drastic moves OF the
kind, the present plan contemplates
the providing OF an opportunity for
every person affected TO lead an up
right life and earn an honest living.
The order TO drive the women from
the city and make Des Moines the only
city in the United States of more thal
5000 inhabitants without a red
light" district was issued by Coun-
Gilman Hamery. superintendent OF the
department OF public safety. at noon
today. II declares that disorderly
houses will be suppressed and that
none will operate in Des Molnes, Iowa,
with the knowledge OF the police de.
partment in future, and further says:
"All keepers and inmates OF resorts
are hereby notified that any who wish
to remain in Des Moines and lead a
decent life must report to Mrs. Eliza
beth Baird, secretary OF the Iowa HUI.

dresses, and proposed occupations 1t

they will be considered as such"
The order also says: They may
also be informed that If any are In
urgent need they may. call upon Mrs.

and there came the usual question OF
Who's there?"
Strong" was the reply. Who Is
that"
The answer was: Diana"
Then" licked Strong. is il safe
for me 10 continue?'
Yes" was the reply.
A sudden suspicion crossed Strong 3
mind. II might not in reality be Diana
who was answering him.
So he licked off the question:
What did you say TO me on the banks
of THE river at Cookham when | saw
you that morning with the gum"
The answer treasured him. Il am
on guard against the man who steals
the earth"
Are you still on guard. and do you
still defy me, or are you ready TO be
my ally?"
Not an ally as yet" was the an
swer, but a friend"
Strong licked away busily. TO
night" he said, 81 propose 10 come
and visit you. but II will be greater
difficulty for me TO get into the palace
at Bomberg than IL was for me to
visit you at Park-st. May / rely on
you for help?"
The answer which the sparks fash
ed out was aggravating. Does the
man who steals the earth need help?'

Poverty Cause Of Drunkenness.


To the Editor of The Times;-l
have attended three of the meetings
of the Martha Holmes Business Mems
class and after each address from ne
appointed speaker the discussions
have always drifted into the cnanncl
OF prohibition versus the saloon Inc
most of the gentlemen attending that
class believe, as almost all Prohibi-
tionists do. that drunkenness Is the
cause Of poverty" and IL might be a
hard proposition 10 get then. TO put

they would believe with the late Miss
