Isador Alexander, whose name breathes war and who is brother to the devil (of the SENTINEL office), and who still further is a strawberry blonde, a complexion that unfailingly denotes amour, fell afoul of Henry, the waiter in Joe Mendes' underground restaurant, yesterday evening. The same sad old story, one fair lady not enough for two swelling masculine hearts. They are both solid on the "mash," and they deserve a lady each; but neither could tolerate a divided love, and they fought it out on that line. Our devil's brother came out second best, but smiled as well as he could through many a scratch.
