Sensatienal Street Scene at Hot Springs Ark---Couple Reconciled. Hot Springs, Ark., May 16.—A cow- hiding affair, with ludicrous and touching elements, occurred early this morning on Central Avenue, the main thoroughfare of Hot Springs. The business houses were being open- , money saver to the milkmen, | “ed when a well dressed man and a iseven greater and more successful dashing woman walked up the street, @pparently well pleased with each other. Suddenly, they were halted By a refined looking woman about 25 years of age. Her face was flush- ed and she was apparently laboring under intense excitement. Before the man and his companion had time to utter a word the aggrieved woman said: You are a nice husband, Henry Williams, but [don’t blame you. I know it's all that hussy’s fault.” Then she drew a cowhide from the folds of her dress and began to bela- bor her husband’s companion. The Blows fell thick and fast. The hi band stood dumbfounded, maki no effort to interfere. After begging for mercy and standing ment as long as possible, theassulted the punish- woman ran uway. Before she had gone 20 yards Mrs. Williams threw herself her band’s neck and kissed raptur- ously, telling him she i everything Mr. and Mrs. Williams live fayette, Ind.

His wife learned of the infatuation and tracked the pair to Hot —_ No Mr. Mrs. their this on hus- him would in La- traveling man arrests were made.

While waiting in the ante room he pulled from his pocket a ehunk of tobac inches inches in diameter and perfectly round and as-hard almost as flint. After he had cut off a chew a man who had watched him asked what it was. “Terbacker,’’ he answered. “Yes, I know; but what it? “My own kind.” “Where do you buy it?” “Don’t buy it. It’s homespun ter- backer. Make it myself.” In response to a good deal of ques- tioning the old man told his stor Vv of how the roll of tobacco was ee: “Fust and fo’most,” he said, ‘you must have good upland, home-grown leaf terbacker and cure it in the sun. Then you stem it, takin’ out all the stalks. When you're ready in the fallto make up your year’s supply of chewin’ terbacker, you saw off a hickory log and bore a hole in one end about a foot deep with a 2-inch auger. “You have your leaf soaked in honey and peach brandy; or if you haven't any peach brandy, apple brandy will do. You put your soaked leaves into the 2-inch auger hole in the hickory log and ram it down tight and keep putting in the leaf and ramming it tight till the hole is nearly full. Then youtake a hick« plug made to fit the hole, and drive it in as tight as you can witha maul- This makes the terbacker into a solid ebhunk. Then you put the green log onto the fire and let it burn slow till its heated through and thes: ap be- gins to sizzle out of the ends. You take the log off {then and put it out ef doors to cool over night. Phe next morning you split the log open and there's yer chunk of chewing ter- backer that will keep as eather in any climate, but it’s the Sweetest chawin the world. There never was no store terbacker to hold candle to it fora sweet, juicy, last- in’ chaw.” Several tobacco chewers standing around sampled the old man’s home made plug and declared that it. w. as she best they hadever tasted. “In the old days that’s the way the ust settlers in Missouri made their terbacker,” the old man said.—Exchange.

Washington, D. C., May 17.—Dem- oeratic politicians of unquestioned standing in New York and thorough- ly familiar with conditions there have been telling Missourians here in Washington that New York would live to vote for Senator FM. Cock- rell of Missouri the democratic tefor president. Very recently as candi many suggestions of this They are apparently put forward in all sincerity by the the matter, sort have been received. men who have discussed and while Senator Cockrell the first one tocheck any plans which would entertain a sug candidate other than William J.

No Missourian to whom the New York- ers have praised Senator Cockrell as would be stion of any an, he cannot prevent a fit man for president has ventured t to the what they are saying of him because they know his loyalty to Mr. Bryan and know that he harbors no political apiary in his hat. But it is interesting and gratifying to Senator Cockrell’s admirers to know that even in New York his great worth, ability and fitness to properly fill any office of publie trust are recognized, and that New York democrats are saying that they would like to have an opportunity to vote for him for the highest oftice in the nation. It will no doubt be of equal interest to the people of Missouri to know what the are saying Senator Cockrell. GOLD DEMOCRA to si senator easterners of S FOR HIM. Charles W.
