LID SLAPPED ON
BY MAYOR DIDDLE N
STRINGENT ORDER
WOMEN OF THE UNDERWORLD
ORDERED TO HIT THE
TREK.
GIVEN UNTIL MONDAY NIGHT
Recent Disturbances In the Red Light
District Responsible for Severe
Measures-Former Mayors Set a
Precedent in the Premises

Mayor William Biddle, in an order
issued Friday night to the city mar
shall. slapped down the lid on the
sporting houses Of the Flat Rock dis
trict, and the soiled doves have been
requested to fit away from town. The
order comes close on the heels OF
recent disturbances in the red light
district, some of which resulted In
pealed heads or carved faces. 1t is the
intention of the Mayor to enforce the
laws and preserve the peace. and he
has found it necessary to take severe
measures in bringing about this re-
suit
The local ranks Of demi monde num-
Der some dozen or more members.
At a recent trial in the police court
ten of the women were summoned as
witnesses and appeared when the case
was called for trial. They wore the
conventional plumage of the under
world, with spring millinery display
hats. and costumes of latest model and
mold. Some of the women still re-
tanned a vestige of their former good
looks
In the order issued by the Mayor
the women are given until Monday
night to pack their grips and seek
more congenial climes. If there is
any disturbance in the district be-
tween now and the hour set for their
departure the whole colony is to be
arrested and brought into court.
The Mayors orders recall several
other attempts to rid Columbia OF
those unfortunates who wear the scar
let letter of shame. During the ad-
ministration OF Mayor Brownlow the
women were frequently arrested. and
were often fined. But they managed
to hold out against the authorities, and
it Is probable that the present regime
will have some trouble in compelling
the hegira.

Votes on Commission Plan.

Hiawatha, Kas., March 3.-Whe-
Their or not Hiawatha shall adopt the
commission plan Of government will
be determined by the special election
held here today. Last year a pro-
posal to adopt the plan was defeat
ed, but by very small vote, and 1t
is believed the chances for It's adop-
tion are much better now. Many OF
the leading cities of Kansas are now
governed under the commission plan,
among them Kansas City, Topeka,
Leavenworth, Wichita, Coffeyville,
Emporia and Independence.
