DISGRACEFUL AFFAIR
 AT HOT SPRINGS
County Jailer and Female Pris- oner in Escapade Which Ends in For CT Los
 ing Job.

Hot Springs, Feb. 22.-A dis graceful escapade, in which the Garland county jailer, William Hoffman, and Mrs. Melville, who is in jail charged with the murder of her husband, are the central figures, came to light to- day when the commission of the jailer was revoked by Sheriff Williams.
 Hoffman is accused of liberat- ing the woman Saturday night, securing a cab and driving with her to a wine garden near the city formerly run by her hus- band, to meet, it is claimed, a former lover. The couple re- mained there until a late hour, when the proprietor was com pelled to send an attendant back to the jail with the pair in a helpless state of intoxication.
 The woman is also accused and will be brought before the grand jury for passing files to prison CTS which nearly resulted in a jail delivery yesterday, but not in freeing Houston Hooker, the colored murderer of Conductor Atwood, as reported. Hooker's cell was untouched.

Do Not sleep on the Left sid.

There is little doubt that an immense
number Of persons habituElly sleep on
the left side, and those who do so can
never. it is said. be strictly healthy. II
Is the most prolific cause OF nightmare
and also of the unpleasant taste In the
mouth on arising in the morning. All
food enters and leaves the stomach on
the right side, and hence sleeping on
the left side soon after eating involves
a sort of pumping operation which Is
anything but conducive to sound re-
pose. The action Of the heart Is also
seriously interfered with and the lungs
unduly compressed; hence it is best to
cultivate the habit of always sleeping
on tie right side.
