HE WHIPPED J,B, AND HIS WIFE
 WHIPPED HIM
Chandler Could "T0te Hi: Licker' But Not Fast
 Enough.

A. C. Chandler is q negro about the color of a cup of army coffee, who, tho he knows nothing of classical lore, and is not in the least coneen- ial with statistics. poetry, facts, or other deep subjects, nevertehless, in his own words, is quite willing to ad- init that the female of the species is much more dangerous to get play ful with than the male, and were his mumblings at the city joil Mon day translated into words, the. solilo- quoy would end up with belief that man was truly made to mourn.
 Chandler was arrested Monday morning charged with fighting and being drunk. He readily admits his inebrity, but solemnly protests that he was not fighting, stating that he is an example of being more fought against than fighting
 Chandler lives in the neighbor- hood of Eighth and Missouri. Sunday night, he went to bed early, pre- pairing for a good nights sleep with the anticipation of arising early and proceeding work as usual Monday morning. He was awakened about l o'clock however, by a friend who had been able to procure a couple of bot ties of that which not only stingeth like the prickly heat, but also kicketh like a Ford.
 After taking two doses of this won- derful compond, Chandler felt like a new man, and after three more doses, he could do more things with his feet than a centipede, and his voice, lifted in song, was a worthy rival to a cor ral full of donkeys.
 Coming home in this rosy state in the flush of dawn it is not unusual that his wife should meet him with the spirit of battle lurking in her eyes. However, Chandler's vision was concerned with mightier things than the handwriting on the wall and when he attempted to trans init to his wife his hilarious feelings with nothing but his breath to trans init it with, the bigger part of the contract became peeved
 And shortly the battle was on.
 With nothing but an empty bot tie and a grim determination, she carved better system of trenches on his head than can be shown any where on what was the Western front Penetrating the entanglement, she described a perfect system of tra- verses, dugouts, bays, and emplace- ments. He tried a strategic retreat, but with nothing short of military genius, she made turning movement, and the blow she struck his rear guard made a lump grow where all was smooth before. Nothing but a complete victory would satisfy this Amazon, and all efforts for an ermis- tice were quickly smashed.
 Learning however, that the law had been summoned, and fearing the necessity of paying idemnities, she ceased the attack, and leaving the debris lying in his own blood, effect ed very successful retreat. Chand Ter was then arrested for fighting and being drunk. He stated that to the best of his knowledge, he fought back just as any gentleman would when attacked by woman.
 Chandler stated that he did not bear his wife any sentiment. "No sub" ]" he said. "I reckon 1 got whut wuz due me-"

in the St. Mihiel drive when his di-
vision acted as q support to, the at

though he prides himself on being
rather fleet of foot, and he expects
that his comrades were of fair aver
age speed, they were unable to even
get in sight of the foe so rapid was
their retreat in the advance Of the on
rushing American soldiers.
/ After this fight his division was
given a short time to rest up and were
then transferred to a section in the
Argonne Forrest. It will be remem-
bered that this was the Waterloo of
the war for Germany. In the Ar
come Forest the Germans had built
real home for themselves, believing
themselves in a position made i'm
,pregnable by the net work of trench
es, natural Notifications and machine
gun nests: To the Americans was as
signed the task of clearing the enemy
from this section of this front, and it
was a task that had been giving the
Allied commanders a great deal of
concern. To Jim's division was as
signed a part of this front and he was
in the trenches for seven days, days
that were featured by continual fight
ing-day and night-amid the roar of
enemy and allied artillery. In an ex-
ceeding hazardous push on the sew
enth day the 91st was met by a well
directed artillery barrage and many
Of the brave boys fell. Jim was
among them. A she'll burst under
him and he was carried from the field.
From that time until the present he
has been in the hospitals. The mus
cles on the inner side Of both thighs
were torn away with smaller wounds
on other parts of his body from flying
shell fragments.
He landed at Hampden Roads on
Jan. 10th and was held in the hospital
at that place for ten days before be-
ing sent to Camp Dodge where he
has been under the care of the sur
geons. He was discharged from fur
Their service on the 18th and was met
here two days later by his father and
sister. He is not able to walk as OF
old, and has been rated as so per. cent

seqnently will receive a monthly al
lotrnent. He plans to assist his faith
