THE EVIL OF MONEY

(From the Hsin Shen Pao China).
 If it is desired to do a thing purely and honestly no trace of gold or silver should be allowed to be mixed with it. The reason why everything China has laid her hands on has been a failure is because gold and silver are always mixed with it. The person in the high est place, military men who are SUD- posed to be protectors of the people and the country, the so-called inviol- able M. P.s, and the politicians and Journalists who claim to be guides of the society are now not worth single copper to say nothing of the poison- ous officials and degenerated society. The whole country is drunk of the cup of silver and gold and every citizen is full with the idea of becoming rich. How could nation prosper under such CirCumSta nceS2

COUNTY JA|LbREAK BY YOUTHS HALTED
 BY SHERIFF'S MEN

Saving the bars of their cell in the county jail, juvenile prisoners last eve ming made an attempt to escape, which was frustrated by the officers who heard the youths in their efforts to se- cure their liberty.
 Only one bar had been sawed when the authorities stepped in and after a systematic search found two hack saws in the crevice of the roof and three saws in the socks of John Peterson, the ring leader, who was brought to the local jail for safe keeping after making his escape from the Tempe jail.
 It was shortly after o'clock that Oscar Price, day jailer. and H. L. Diehl, a deputy. heard the tell tale sound that convinced them that jailbreak was underway. The sounds came from the juvenile cell and an investigation proved that the boys were making ready to escape. When the officers made their appearance not a file nor saw was to be seen.
 Sheriff Montgomery stated last eve ming that the threats of a bread and water diet and the hose treatment were without avail. The boys refused to give up their tools and it was only after a thorough search was made that the saws and files were forthcoming
 The juvenile cell at the time of the attempted break was occupied by Pe- terson, Ernest Perry, Earl Pensinger Lou Vega and Dolores Acuna. The sheriff claims that all but Acuna were implicated in the break. Peterson was placed in the tank and the four other boys in the same cell from which they attempted to escape.
 Peterson was arrested in Tempe day or two ago on the charge of rob bery. He is alleged to have admitted that he stole $500 from a Tempe bak- cry and that he took the money to send to his mother in Switzerland. He escaped from the Tempe jail and was taken into custody in Maricopa, again making his escape. Later he was cap tured at Hansen Junction by Consta- ble Woods and brought to Phoenix for safety.

 REMARKABLE PAINTING

Queen of the Tarantella," that wonderful painting of the Neapolitan dancing girl, has been secured by the Donofrias and found a permanent rest ing place in their art gallery. This pie ture, painted by that excellent master, Van Schnider of Holland, was brought to Phoenix by Macdonald Mcguire one of the best known collectors of art in the United States, being as we'll known in Paris and London as in New York, and his coming to Phoenix has been one of the greatest opportunities the people of this state have had to see pictures such as he has in his collec- ton.
 Van Schnider studied for years in Italy and while there met the dancer Carmenella. who posed for this paint ing. Queen of the Tarantella" is con sidered a masterpiece in this school Of art by continental connoiseurs who have had the pleasure of viewing his works.
 At the time of the purchase of this picture, Macdonald Mcguire considered himself very fortunate in having se- cured it, for it is acknowledged to be one of the finest examples of figure paintings that has been exhibited in 1 this country or in Europe for many years.
 Queen of the Tarantella," which was purchased by MT. Donofrias at a price of S50O0 hangs in the Donofrio store on Washington street. at the extreme 1 left end of the store, where patrons dlnlnS there can see and admire this masterpiece of art

 names but hopes to do so before he l leaves Phoenix

WOMAN PASSES THE
 BUCK ID THE POLICE

lf her property in China alley was used for the purpose of prostitution it was without her knowledge. and be- cause of the negligence Of George O. Brisbois, chief of police, and the police department over which he has charge by permitting such conditions tO exist in that locality. is the claim made by Mrs. Kate Sabra in her answer filed in the superior court yesterday.
 Mrs. Sahra is the first person against whom action was taken under the re- ccntly passed Red Light Abatement act. She was charged with maintain ing a nuisance in permitting certain use Co be made of her property.
 Her answer is as sensational as tho charge made against her. She con- tends that she stands ready and willing Co assist in removing any condition that may exist that would affect the good morals of tho community and asks that the plaintiff. the chief Of police, be required to take such action as the law requires and remove from the locality. and especially property adjacent to her own. any and all 0ccu- pants who by reason of their profes- sion arc objectionable, Co the end that inc value of her property be not de- stroyed by the reason of their being permitted by the city police to congre- gate and be domiciled in that locality.
 Mrs. Sabra alleges that the time she

erected the buildings she rented them to persons she believed of good moral character for the use of dwelling houses. She claims that she did not knowingly rent the places for any of the purposes mentioned in the com plaiut filed against her. For a long time since, through the negligence of the police department and especially George O. Brisbois.' a type Of citizen ship has congregated in the neighbor- hood that has compelled her to rent her property to people of the same color as those occupying adjacent property. At all times when complain. has been made Mrs. Sabra says, has endeavored 10 remove objectionable tenants. During 1918. on complaint of the chief, Mrs. Sabra claims to have removed all objectionable tenants her property remaining vacant for a long period. She insists that if any of her tenants used the premises for an un- lawful purpose she did not know it and holds the police responsible for allow ing such state of affairs to exist.
