TROOPS AFTER ROBBERS.

AT this time the Chinese troops which
had arrived ut TSaoyang, started to at
tack the robbers by firing from outside
city walls. The shots whiStled through
the streets in which we were. spattering
up against the buildings. This alarmed
the robbers. who Immediately started for
another part of the city. We took adj
vantage OF the opportunity to make our
escape and fled to an old Chinese house
which 1T that moment was vacant.
We ran into 4 side room and hid our-
selves in a pile Of old wheat straw. No.
sooner were we concealed than the rob

They pulled the straw about, jumped on
top of it and ran their bayonets through
il time and again. The bay0nets lust
missed my legs.
For four days the robbers lived in the
same house. in 4 room opposite to us. For
three days and nights we were without
water and food We hardly slept for
eleven days and nights. for the robbers
were all that time in the same house,
most Of the time in an adjoining room.

For the first time in the history of
the state it will be unlawful for any
man to vote in the coming spring
election unless he is full citizen This
will come as somewhat of q surprise
to people who have not kept in touch
with changes in the naturalization
laws because for the past fifty years
and more it has been possible to vote
if man has his first papers. IN the
November election of 1912 man with
his first papers could vote, but begin.
ming December /, 1912, a new law
went into effect making any man
ineligible to vote who is not a fule
citizen of this country. The penalt
for illegal voting is quite severe ana
all foreign born people, now living in
this state, who have not taken out
their final citizenship papers, should
make note of the above changes in
the law.
