A POLITICAL FACTOR
IS WHAT HON. U. R. BREcKIN- RIDGE WILL BECOME ON
 HIS RETURN.
JAS. K. JONES REQUEST
Good Stories Told of the Senator and His Relation to the Dingley
 Tariff Bill Committee.
From the Arkansas Democrat,

Hon. Clifton R. Breckinridge, of Jefferson county, who for the past four years has represented this na- ton at the court of the White Czar in St. Petersburg, has presented his letters of recall to Ills Majesty, and in short time will give place to his successor. Ethan Allen Hitchcock, of St. Louis. 1t is. given out by his intimate friends that he will return to Arkansas, resume the practice of law, and again become an active factor in Arkansas politics. 1t is whispered quietly that he will be heard from in senatorial, congress sional or gubernatorial campaigns, and that before the elapse of many years, possibly in the prospective struggles of 1898. Politics is await ing only the passing of the holidays, when that seductive mistress of American ambition will most likely maka herself known. The campaigns will be we'll inaugurated by the lat ter part of January.

Many singers fail to realize the i'm portance of distinct enunciation, and the charm of beautiful voice is often lost by the listener who is vainly strug- gling to catch the meaning of the song. A young woman who considers her self an admirable ballad singer ono day received severe shock from the crit. icism of an old lady who had formed one of her audience. Among other bal lads the singer had rendered "Rory O'More" i'll her best style and had re- cetyed much applause.
 The old lady. who sat in the front seat in the little hall where the entes- tainment was given. looked at first pug. zied and then distressed as the familiar song proceeded, and at tho close of the concert she waited to speak to the young woman.
 My dear, ," she said Qn q quivering voice, 1T remember when Rory O'More' first came out \ have never been singer myself, but have always been interested in music, and I am sure never heard tho words as you sang them tonight. am not deaf. My hear ing is unusually good, but will you tell me where you get your authority for ainging:
 He poulticed the hook,
 And she saltea 1t downf Foa, though I cannot remember the original words, am sure they were not like that. |"
 The young woman's face was crim- son as she showed the old lady her copy os the eong and pointed to @ words:
 He bold as the hawk
 And she soft as the dawn

Apropos of the early return oi Hon. c. R. Breckinridge to his na- tive heath a good story is related of Senator Jas. K. Jones, which has never before been published. Stna- tor Jones was the Democratic mem ber on the committee which drafted the Dingley tariff bill. Day after day the Arkansas statesman sat in the committee room and saw his amendments voted down by the dominant Republicans. Finally the great tariff measure was complete, and with a patronizing air, MT. Dingley turned to Senator Jones and said
 "Now, Senator Jones, is there any other amendment you would like to offer?"
 Senator Jones was naturally dis consulate at the manner in which he had been treated, but he realized that he had been out numbered, con sequently he consoled himself by feeling blue. He looked at the great reformer with the steel-gray eye which has eowed opposition in the senate hall and flashed defiance from many a rostrum, and said slowly
 "Mr. Dingley, I have sat here and seen all my suggestions ig- nored; l have been spurned from the throne. But in this last sad hour l would make one final request as an American citizen, that you admit free Of duty Clifton Breckinridge's knee pants"
