HOT STI FF’S TROUBLES
He Raises a Row With Mrs. Hot
Stuff, Loses a Log and Gets
Into a Big Lawsuit.
Editor The .Journal
If you will allow me a little
spaof in The .Journal, 1 will relate
the family troubles of my husband
Mr. ll<>t Stuff. Llis brother was
out here Christmas, and confident
ially told me as follows: lb' de
serted the wife and children he had
out there and married a woman j
that weighed d6‘» pounds, and she
is Mr. llot Stuff', superior in
strength and courage. This wo
man had been in the habit of pur
chasing a few little articles from a
peddler, and this displeased Mr.
Ilot Stuff very much. He told
her that he did not indulge in such
extravagance, and advised her to
quit. So he got up one morning
in a very bad humor, and told his
wife in very harsh tones, that he
wanted her to straighten up things
around the place, and especially
he wanted that little old sick calf
killed and that J>ox of rotten cot
ton seed thrown away. After
these instructions, he set out on a
hunt. So in a few minutes after
he left the peddler came and want
to sell the lady a clock. She told
him of her husband's instructions,
but the peddler insisted on her tak
ing a clock and told her he would
take the sick calf and the rotten
cotton seed for the clock. Of
course the woman very wisely
made the trade. So tin' peddler
took them in his carriage and went
but a short distance when he over
took Mr. Hot Stuff, lie told Mr.
Hot Stud that h»* was going to the
World's Fair with the calf, but as
it was so much trouble he would
take Sad for the calf. As he had
painted it of course Hot Stuff did
not recognize the calf. The ped
dler also told him that he had a
very fine variety of cotton seed,so
he sold Mr. Hot Stuff a quart of
the rotten seed for $6.50 and he
went to John McPeek’s and bor
rowed the money and paid the ped
dler for the calf and cotton seed,
dust as he stepped inside the tent
that evening the clock begin to
strike; and lie says to his wife:
“Your great grand mother’s griz
zly gray greenish cat. I have a
notion to knock you into the mid
dle of next month.” He run his
fingers through his hair, pushed |
up Irs slee\es, he ripped and he
reared, he. pranced and he charged j
like the grand entry at a circus. ;
lie knocked her down, slapped her j
face, boxed her jaws, pulled her I
nose, scratched her cheeks until
she fairly yelled, lb' stopped a
moment to catch his breath, and
then she got mad. She bellowed
like a calf, sh ■ yelled like a hound,
she squealed like a pig, then lifted
herself bodily in the air about 40
feet and she came down on Hot
Stuff like a thousand of bricks.
Then she crossed over, right and
left, all hands around, in and out,
here and there, back and forth, up
and down, perpetual motion doub
le-twisted and turned and tacked
and tangled into forty-eleven thou
sands double b >w knots. She tired
by tile, she fired by platoons, by
company, by regiments and by
brigades. The tent trembled, the
lights danced, the sky split, the
ground rocked; heavens and earth
and creation shook. By tins time
Mr. Hot Stuff was perfectly sensc
lejc. Th- 'v- i* vans ,1 b V*r»
not waiting for an lixplanation, re
garding the clock. Well, in a day
or two, mortification setup in one
of his legs, and his wife feeling
somewhat sorry for him told him
that she would amputate it. So
she got a butcher knife and a
cross-cut saw and took it off. Well
Hot Stuff wanted the leg buried,
but his wife told him she was go
ing to keep it. So they separated
about this, and went into a law
suit about the leg, and while the
jury was out, Frank Smith’s old
dog slipped into the Court House
and got the leg and ate it up. So
that decided the case. Mr. Hot
Stuff then got a black jack bush
and made him a wooden leg, and
the last 1 heard of him he was com
ing towards Newark singing that
old familiar song. “Johnny had
a wooden leg.”

PLEASED WITH ARKANSAS
J. W. Kill in, Who Recently Came
From Illinois, Well Pleased
With This Country.
J. W. Edlin who came here
about two weeks ago from near
Peoria, III., says that he is delight
ed with Arkansas.
In conversation with a Journal
reporter a few days ago Mr Edlin
stated that he had never yet been
in a country he liked better than
this section of Arkansas. One
thing he is very much pleased with
is our delightful climate. In speak
of our climate he held up his
hands with the remark that he
brought with him from the North
a reminder of the kind of weather
they have in that country through
the winter. The tips of his Ung
ers bore the mark of King Win
ter’s icy clasp, each of them hav
ing been frost bitten. This was
done while loading his goods into
the car to leave Illinois. The snow
on the ground was at that time 12
inches deep and the thermometer
was seven degrees below zero.
This, however, was not unusual
weather for this season and Mr.
Edlin says they don't think its
cold weather in that country until
the thermometer goes to zero
He is well pleased with the town
and surrounding country also, and
will likely buy a farm nd engage
in fanning and stock raisin \
