AHA! THAT WAS
THE HOW OF It
Reason Why Granger Eats
Chicken Morning, Noon
and Night.

Attorney II. e. Granger can look
down upon the hot polloi.
For dinner last evening Granger ate
friend chicken and at breakfast this
! morning he partook again of the same
and also at luncheon today. If the law
yer's digestive apparatus lasts he will
be eating fried chicken three meals a
day until Sunday.
Who Wins the Pot.
There is a story connected with the
acquiring of all these delicate meats
| that should be of interest to those who
are planning to sue their neighbors for
| spding fall fries that have strayed. The
| moral is self evident 1t cost Mrs.
Victoria Carter, 95 Kennedy avenue,
! her stock of poultry and caused Mrs.
Elizabeth Bateman, the defendant a
| few chicks besides to find that il does
| mt pay. And Attorney Granger isn't
| the only one that took fries for his fee
or got in on the pot.
| One night not long ago Mrs. Carriers
| husband entered his yard, leaving the
gate open behind him. so the story
goes. His wife's flock accepted the OPP
portunity to stroll in the moon light.
OF course everyone knows that chick

Tried in East Chicago.
One thing certain, the chickens left.
Mrs. Carter claimed they went over
| to visit Mrs Bateman's frys. This Mrs
Bateman denied and so they took it to
the courts after several c1othesllne ar
| guments.
| Granger accepted the case with his
| mouth watering. Legrand T. Meyer took
| the defense without hesitation. A re-
plevin action was filed in Judge Priests
court and taken on a change of venue
before Judge George Fl. Lewis of East
Chicago. In claiming the chickens Mrs
Carter said they were Matched in
| March and Mrs. Bateman that they
came into this world in May. The
Judge said he could tell which date
was correct and ordered a constable &c
bring them before him
The stock Shrinks.
When that officer reached court there
| were four chickens in his possession
This seemed curious. When a Judge
ment was granted the plaintiff attor-
neys claim that the Judge paid it and
iaccepted the chickens In return.

To console the convention on the

| In the constitution the boss system,
the practice of assessing candidates

nounced while the party declared itself
in favor of: !. Due regard for equit-

2. Commission form of government.

Justice. 5. Separation of municipal
affairs from national politics.
Mr.. Belman made an elaborate ex-
cuse for the party and the fact that ii
turned down the primary which the
Democrats adopted. He stated at the
Democratic primaries a whole family
in and that fraud was practiced ex-
tensively. On the deep sewer question
Belman championed the cause of the
ants. He stated that the present ad.

people for six months. In regard Il
