that he did more for the entertain

caused by heart disease while in

of jeffrey e. Button on their conduit
contract for some time. the water
commission yesterday afternoon de-
cided to adjourn its meeting for a
week without taking action. During
this week the attitude of the contrac-
tors toward their work may have
much to do with the action of the
commission. No suggestion of grant
ing the company longer time in which
to complete its contract without PEN
atty was made at the meeting yester-
day. Supervising Engineer Frank c.

after having first inspected the work.

of the quality but not the quantity
of the work done. jeffrey & Button
have practically done only twenty per
cent of the contract in six months

+ Proud that she lies an even mile
above the seas. Denver will be saved
from undue aboastfulness as to al.
titude by the fact that she ever looks
to towering range near to the west
that rises a full mile and half
above her. But it is not us a check
but as an Inspiration and material
storehouse thai the great Rocky
mountains have played a part in the.
life Of Denver.
Impressed with the value of. scenic
beauty, Denver is one of the few
cities in America which has charter
provision making compulsory the
use of a certain fixed proportion of
her public improvement expenditures
for the purchase of park lands. And
the city's beautiful park system
shows the admirable results of this
plan.
Out of the Rockies, too, flow the
precious metals that keep in opera
ton Uncle Sans big mint in Dem
Yer, and the valuable baser ores that
feed the city's big shelters. And
every year there passes through Dem
yer an army of see-America-first
tourists armed with hob-nailed boots
and cameras for the conquest of the
peaks.

WHAT'S the lack OF money
&. When loves there in full swing?
They didn't have to buy fine clothes,
And never ate thing.

tSynopsis of preceding chapters:
While taking her Chinese biplane out
Tor an airing, Isabelle Cowdles, a
beautiful ana accomplished heiress
and airess, is attacked by flock OF
eagles, who mistake the aeroplane for
dinklebird. Roger Sandstone, in the
nick Of time, swoops down and along
In his Norwegian monoplane and puts
the eagles to rout. After that, the
pair meet often while in the air, but
as Roger is only chauffeur for rich
henstitch importer, Isabelle does not
dare invite him to her home. One
day, while the Cowdles are at dinner,
on their roof garden, Roger, cifcling
above out of pure lovelorness, loses
control OF his machine and crashes
through the skylight While he is
there, suspended from the candelier,
he takes advantage of the opportunity
to inform Mr.. Cowdle that he loves
his daughter and intends to marry
her: Old man Cowdle, learning that
he Is only poor though honest
chauffeur, VOWS that Isabelle shall
never receive cent OF his money as
q marriage portion. The marriage
takes place, nevertheless, however,
anyway, and the old man, just to show
his sporting blood, causes all the old
shoes in the house, numbering 1855, to
be thrown after the bride and bride
groom. Roger hastily collects them
and puts them in the carriage.)

The vice Onestinn.

me suppression Of vice 1ues-
ton is agitating the city of Wheeling
now. Whether the redlight district
should be driven out is one OF debate
there.
While many give Clarksburg bad
name away from home, it is notable
in thescity's history that the redlight
district passed years ago and does
not now exist here. 1t is true that
a house Of bad repute is sometimes
found here and there in the city and
there has been more or less immoral
conduct elsewhere in the city and
Suburbs, but there Is no segregated
district.
Police and other records as we'll
as general observation show that
moral conditions. have a better tone
now than they did when redlight dis
tricts existed here and it can not be
said truthfully that Clarksburg is
seething in vice. On the contrary the
city has fair name in this respect.
although at times blotch is seen.
There ara not many who will say that
the present moral tone here is no
better than 1t was sim years gone by.
Commercialized vice does not bene-
fit a, city and 1t Is not strictly true
that the intimidation of CONNER
cialized vice Is wholly matter of
police efficiency, but as one write.
says it lies rather in irnplanting bet
ter ideals in the youth of the nation.
C. E. Lebastian, chief OF police of
Los Angeles, says in letter to the
Society of Social Hygiene: From a
police standpoint and viewed after
years OF experience in the police de-
partment under an administration
which allowed segregated district
and later under an administration
which abolished 1t, want to go on
record that am opposed to segrega-
ton. My opposition as a police officer
is based principally upon two argu-
ments:
Segregation fails of the object It
seeks to accomplish; it does not seq
regate. (.
Segregation in any administra-
ton, no matter how applied and
otherwise claimed, spells graft.
While the abolition of the redlight
district has not solved the problem of
the social evil, we have at least taken
a step forward"
Here are some of the reasons given
by the Portland Commission against
segregation:
Segregation does not segregate.
1t deals with only small percent
age of the sexually immoral.
1t promotes and justifies profess
cionoJ nrncfifnfion
1t does not reduce clandestine i'm
morality.
1t helps to establish double
standard of morality by stigmatizing
the woman and ignoring the moral
responsibility of man.
1t rests on the false assumption
that sexual immortality is necessary
/ IT fosters the ,debauchery of the
sex instinct.
1t promotes the spread of venereal
diseases.
1t affords official absolution for
illegal and immoral conduct.
Insofar as it is official sanction OF
commercial prostitution, it is the con-
'comitant of white slavery.
n is Illegal. at.@

Some Democratic, newspapers re-
gard the starting OLA factory under
Democratic rule so miraculous that
they play up such news with either
big head lines or borders, thus indi-
eating that the fact is startling. 1t is
presumed that they are so ac-
customed TO seeing factories closed
down by Democratic rule it is regard
ed by them as quite unusual for fac
tories to start up while Democrats
have control of the national govern
nlent. II is ito there is something
extraordinary That factories should
resume operation under Democratic
rule after being idle so long under
that rule but manufacturers sight the
fact that the recent overwhelming Re-
publican victory throughout the coun-

rule will not last more than two years

four hundred pounds between Octo-
Der and April. which is an average
increase in weight OF something over
two pounds day. At prevailing
prices for beef, the farmer who
raises most OF his own feed can
make a profit Of from $12 to sis

amount. Some grain must be given
the animals to obtain the best re-
suits, but the bulk Of their diet is
