Va, for the alleged killing Of her mis-
tress, On account of the youth Of the
girl-l7 years old-and the fact that
she was half-witted, the Chicago Exam

Mr.. Anderson bravely went there, at
the risk of his life, and pleaded for one
solid hour with the governor to save
the life of the girl.
The many friends Of Mr.. Anderson
urge him for the Legislature, believing
that he has the undisputed ability to
properly ell the Office Of representative
with credit to himself and honor to his
people, and to cope with the many ques-
tons which win come up at the next
session Of the Legislature affecting our
people . interests.
The fight is expected to grow hotter
as the campaign advances, and The
Broad AK win watch the future develop
ments Of the campaign with much in
terest and give credit where credit is
due. Mr.. Anderson was born in New
Orleans, La, forty-seven years ago, but
he has lived in Chicago since he became
twelve years old, most of which time
in the Second Ward.

DEDICATED TO THE VICTORY
GARDENEDS OF AMERICA

Kind neighbors, oh folks one and all,
Listen to the appealing, urgent call
We have just joined the garden club.
In an effort to raise more GRUB"
But, kind folks, you can surely see
This can really never, never be,
If you don't stop of crop that bloom
in" hen
Who leaves a plant only now and
then.
write this in the country's own de-
Tense
Because your chickens, they jump the
fence
And cover over with a cackling row
TO scratch up what law won't allow
They are, no doubt, very fine chickens,
But when on a visit they play the
dickens
And l have a remedy if you'd just ap-
ply,
Put them on the table in the middle
Of a pie,
That, or you rue the day they did
hatch;
Please keep them from my garden
patch,
For all the chickens under the skies
Your garden chickens most despise.
So, neighbor, leave it to you,
Stop your hens, the best thing to do
For any of them I would hate to shoot,
But may, and eat 'em up to boot.
For if the hen eats all / have got
To eat her, I'd put her in the pot
For nothing should now go to waste
Fattened on my truck, good to me
she'd taste.
You ask, why not send her to you
Why, neighbor, this l should never do,
She has eaten grub" of very huge
amount,
So l eat her to balance up account.
To this, please your energies bend
For It's never too late to mend"
Go, while to the roost they cling,
Take your scissors and clip a wing.
Do this, but this, and the gods will
praise
You for the garden tduck we can raise
To keep the boys fighting "over there"
'Gainst Kaiserism and world despair.

TERRIBLY SWOLLEN
Suffering Described As Torture
 Relieved by Black k-Draught.

Rossville, Ga.-Mrs. Kate Lee Able, of this place, writes: "My husband is an engineer, and once while lifting, he in- iured himself with a piece of heavy ma- chinery, across inc abdomen He was SO sore he could not bear to press on himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He weighed l65 lbs, and fell off until he weighed no lbs, in two weeks.
 He became constipated and it looked like he would die We had three different doctors, yet with all their medicine, his bowels failed to act. He would turn up ten-ceut bottle of castor oil, and drink it two or three days in succession. He did this yet without result. We became desperate, he suffered SO. He was swol- len terribly. He told me his suffering could only be described as torture.
 lsent and bought Thedford's Black Draught. made him take big dose, and when it began 10 act he tainted, he was in such misery, but he got relief and began to mend at once. He got well, and we both feel he owes his life to Thedford'S Black Draught"

CARRIED HIS WAD JUST
 WHERE GIRLS CARRY IT
(From Tuesdays Daily)

On Sunday night while the draft boys were celebrating their last night as civilians, man who gave his name aS Bruce Wiley, was arrested on South MontcZuma street by Chief of
 Police Bloom, charge of disorderly conduct being preferred against him.
 He was lodged in the county jail and on Monday morning taken before the police judge Wiley was not a mem Der of the draft contingent, and as he looked like he was absolutely de- void of coin, of the realm, the judge decided 10 fine him s. The man had been searched at the jail, and the turnkey had been able to find only Sl.S5 on the prisoners person.
 However. as if to prove the asscr- ton that things are not always what they seem, the man did not kick a bit when he was told that he had been fined. He calmly proceeded to let down one of his stockings and took from next to his ankle a wad of ycllow-backed certificates about as big around as a hippopotamus' cl
 bow. The smallest bill the prisoner had was so large that Judge Whisman searched his cash register in vain for change, 1t being too late to increase the mans fine to a size more propor- tionate to the roll he carried. The court finally had to send one of the out and get $50 bill changed and then handed the man his $45 change. How the man ever man aged to conceal this big bunch of gold certificates from the eagle eye Of the jailer who searched him is a thing which Chief Bloom hasn't yet been able to figure out
