The scene of the probable murder

of Chicago. The trouble started about
11:50, just before Jackson was about
to close his place UP for the night.

some of the requests that are being
made:
1. That the approaches to the Column
bia avenue bridge be filed in and the
street paved. During the recent city
campaign the city administration de-
ceived the people of the east side into
believing that something was going to
be done to open this street. The Indi-
ana Chicago Traction company was in
duced to put in a few loads of fill,
and after the election was over the
work was stopped and that was all that
was done to make the $4,000 br se
available.
2. The people OF the east side believe
they have the right to ask for a park
from the city. Every other portion of
the city has been provided with a park
but the east side. The city replies that
the east side is not the place for parks
but that it's park sites should be used
for factory sites.

a man who had supposedly been a re-
publican all his life. 1t was a conven-
tent, not to say a brotherly arrange

But the most inexplicable thing about
the whole frame-up was the fact that
crafty Tom and cunning Armanis act
ually believed that the republicans and
the democrats of the Tenth district
would stand for such an arrangement.
Go Get Interviewed.
The FIRST step in the plan was for
Armanis to go TO Indianapolis and
be interviewed. Armanis is the boy
who can get next" to the newspaper

public eye is through the newspapers.
He thought the papers of his home

them did.

this evangelist tips the scales at just
a shade above one hundred pounds.
How such a person can generate so
much power will perhaps be a source
of wonder but the weight will not be
surprising when you recall that the
