COURT STAYS EVICTION.
Illness of Tenant Prevents Exeeu.
ton of Dispossession Order.

On the plea OF Mrs. Lillian L. Lake,
that her husband, Vivian E. Lake, is
i'll, and that his eviction from their
home, 2l2S LIST street northwest,
would endanger seriously his health,
Justice Hitz of the District Supreme
Court yesterday stayed the order of
the Municipal Court for the dispos-
sessing of the Lakes. He also issued
a rule on Judge Doyle of the latter
court to show cause Monday why he
should not certify for review by the
District Supreme Court a landlord
and-tenant case pending before him.
Mrs. Lake attacked the jurisdiction
of the Municipal Court in entertain
ing a suit to dispossess the Lakes
brought by Anna L. PIyer. The claim
is made that the relation. of landlord
and tenant is not shown in the pc
tition on which the suit was based.
The court is told that deputy
marshal had been permitted to enter
the sick room of the husband and
had been convinced of the danger of
removing him.

Went to Assist Kerensky.

John F. Stevens, the American engi-
neer, who will head the technical
board of the interaIIied committee,
went to Russia q year ago with
corps of American railroad engineers
to survey the railroads for the Ke-
renSky, government. but before i'm
proTements in equipment and opera
ton could be effected the. Kerensky
government was oVerthrown by the
bolsheviki putting an end for a time
to Mr.. Stevens work. He went to
Nagasaki, Japan. and later to Nladi
vostok, where he has since made his
headquarters.
1t is believed here that Mr.. Stevens
original plans will now be carried out
under the interallied control. and the
two railroads reorganized according
to American standards, enabling the
shipment of greater quantities of
foodstuffs and other supplies to the
interior of Siberia. and to Russia when
the situation there clears.
In the belief here. the function of
the military board in connection with
the intera1lied control will be to look
after military transportation prob

STEVENS ENGINEER HEAD

An agreement for control of the
Transsiberian and Chinese Eastern
railroads by an interaliicd commit

States Ambassador Morris. at Toxic.
has been instructed to participate in
the working out of details at Via

The State Department announced
this action in the following memo

Negotiations between the Japanese
and American governments for some

the Transsiberan and Chinese East

for some time. While Japan has not
exercised control, as such. she has
maintained military guard. and it

BY ALL MEANS "oBEY."

They're talking again about leaving
woman's promise to "obey" out Of the
marriage service. That is WE'LL they al
ways have been talking about it, They
canyassed the pros and cons before
most of us were born. It's one of the
best subjects to talk about there is.
But it would be too bad to leave it out.
OF course a great many clergymen
quietly omitted it long ago And a
great many chivalrous bridegrooms
have requested that it be omitted To
drop it altogether would close up one
more wide avenue of chivalry and make
the world so much the poorer.
The fact is, Of course, that promise
to obey exacted Of the woman, but not
Of the man is relic Of barbarism.
Therein lies it's value. In these days we
have precious few Of those relics left.
Think how the woods used to be full Of
them in the gold old days Not then was
conversation limited TO few such evils.
But we have gone after them, from
slavery TO clothing on our sculptures,
and stripped them away. And now
how can the world progress if we leave
no evils to be conquered?
And surely the promise 10 obey is an
ideal outrage. Few crying evils ever
did so little harm. For nature provided
laws which are far more potent than
any formula Of words to decide who's
who in the home However the phrase
got in. we more than half suspect that
the wisdom of the ill-used sex has kept
it there 1T pleased him and doesn't
hurt me" is the philosophy of many a
dialogue in domestic life. Is il not
worth while that man should have this
triflng promise as a safety-valye,
wherewith to reproach a faithful spouse
in moments which provoke his oratory 7
so long as ! may eat the apples, let
him, who will, lay title to the tree. -
