Deelany, an inveterate user of Gig
arettes, is chef and in Chicago was
employed in dairy restaurant. He
is on the verge of consumption and
health officials who found him
coughing made him leave the kitchen.
He tried unsuccessfully to get an
other job and the couple moved into
cheap furnished room from their
comfortable little fiat. Their fur
niture was sold piece by piece to buy
food and finally the wife decided they
better get out of Chicago.
They had just $3.50 between them
and decided to walk the tracks from
Chicago to Minneapolis. In the be-
ginning their clothes was fairly good,
but by the time they reached this city
they looked like tramps.
There was no work here for them
and Sylvia, weak from the expert
ences on the road and without money
or place to live, went to hair
dresser and sold her luxuriant brown
tresses for $150. A couple of days
later they secured temporary work
on the farm of a Mr. Meyer When
the work was done and they were
compelled to leave they took with
them two rings and were arrested.
Yesterday the wife pleaded that
she be permitted to go on to Colorado
to save her husbands life and Mey-
er, after hearing the story, withdrew
the charge.
A small purse was made up for the
couple and social workers have prom

"DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO OPEN
REDLIGHT BEING MADE"
Leaders of the underworld are
making desperate attempts to open a
new redlight district, according to
Samuel Thrasher, superintendent of
the committee of fifteen, who hold
their annual luncheon at the Hotel
La Sale yesterday.
This new district is bounded by In
diana and Cottage Grove avs. and
31st and 35th SITS. 1t is charged that
many buffet flats are operating Sc
cretly in this district.
There are still 10000 prostitutes
in Chicago on whom $36,500,000 is
spent yearly" said Thrasher. "The
committee has the hardest part of it's
work in front of it. Three thousand
woman denizens of the old 22d st.
district have scattered. Many Of them
have left the ity. 1t is charged that
the majority are now in resident dis
tricts. This has not yet Deen proven.
Our efforts have been mainly di-
rected toward the work of destroying
the market places for traffic in Wom-
en-" he continued. Our methods of
publishing the names of the owners
of record of property used for i'm
moral purposes has had tremen-
dous effect. Many hundreds of hous-
es have been purged of immoral wom-
en- by owners or agents who had been
Indifferent regarding the use of their
property or who had been content
to receive revenue from such a source
as long as there was no danger OF
publicity"

Ioisington, Kansas---Read the Paper Others Read
The Creamery Promoter

A great deal has been said in re-
gard to the work of the average
creamery promoter but nevertheless
these promoters have been very ac-
tive in Idaho this summer. Several
creameries have been organized at
places in Idaho where conditions did
not at all warrant the building and
.equipping Of a creamery. At one
place such a creamery was worked
up by a promoter and sold to the far
mers for almost twice the sum 1t
should have cost, and although it
has been ready to run for over
month. it Is said that not a wheel
has turned yet. The disgusting thing
about the whole matter is the fact
that there are very few cows within
a six mile radius of this creamery
and little or no cream to make into
butter.
At another place a creamery is be-
ing built at the present time at a
cost of $500 which should not have
cost more than $4,000. AS far as
can be learned, very little cream is
Ibeing produced at this point, acream
receiver stating that about six cans of
cream each week was shipped out
from that point last winter over the
railroad. This amount of cream is
quite insufficient for the operation of
Ia creamery, and further Information
leads one to believe that the farmers
are not greatly interested in dairy
ing in this vicinity.
These are typical promoters cream
cries and II the creameries do not
succeed. dairying will suffer a set
back of at least five years.
The above clipping is taken from
the New York Produce Review and
American Creamery, and is one Of
many warnings against the methods
of the creamery promoter.-R. Nc
Cam. Deputy Dairy Commissioner,
Fort Collins, Colo.
Ordway Is to have a creamery
which is being established by the man
who is to conduct It. Floyd Roberts
of La Junta, and this assures the
equipped for handling the business
than were it put in by some promoter
who leaves as soon ~ the plant is in
foperation. This safeamery will be
running by about the first of the
year.
