DIR. SMITH MAKES
 A STATEMENT
Man Whose Wife Followed Him Here From Hot Springs and Created a Scene. Says He Has Been Done h. justice in Charges.

Edward F. Smith, formerly of Hot Springs. who figured in a rather sen- sational scene at Union station last Tuesday, when his wife, Mrs. Alice S1sssith, of Hot Springs, made an ef- rt t1'o induce him to return to her lnd at Eter being refused fainted in 1e 9 Lms of Patrolman Lem Reidn- Ser, called at the Graphic office yes terday afternoon and made a state ment clearing himself in the eyes of the public. saving it was not his in- tention to do his former wife any injustice. He declares that he is a practicing physician and that he has come to this city to live permanent ly.
 According to Dr. Smith s story he and his wife amicably agreed to sep arate at Hot Springs some months ago. His wifes habits, he says. made it impossible for him to live with her longer. He deeded several building lots to her, Dr. Smith says, and gave her $4.400 in money. After he left Hot Springs, Dr. Smith says his wife annoyed him continually following him to TeXarkana, Hope, Prescott, Pine Bluff and Altheimer in each place creating d'sSraceful scene by her conduct, He declares that the lady, whom his wife charges as being his affinity is Mrs. Ruth McGurk; that she is an estimable young woman of fine character and morals, and that his wife has done her a great injustice in her allega- tions. Mrs. McGurk is pr. Smith 8 stenographer and bookkeeper, he states, and is the same to him as any other employe, no more. Dr.. Smith told a pathetic story of mis- treatment at the hands of his wife and asserts that much of his earn ings for years have been spent in trying to make her happy. He is a man of evident refinement and ap- pears to be willing to do the right thing by his former wife. pr. Smith is accompanied here by Billy" Bar low, the famous minstrel, who is in his employ and declares that he will soon show the public that he has been misrepresented by his wife.

Being as Bill Hepburn, our ar

on Tuesday Of last week never to
drink another drop of Ticker as

the Co. seat on Saturday, got full
as a goose and was arrested and

agpeers elsewhere IN this ishue of
the Bugle, Bills wife, Eliza has
asked US to write up q red hot edi-
torial on intemperance. Eliza
thinks sich a editorial viii do Bill
good We have our doubts about
this and yet we write it with great
cheer as follows:
Whiskey IS a curse to them as
abuses It's use; yet It IS a blessing
TO them as can take it OF LET alone,
and a full quart ought to be in the
cupboard Of every home for use in
acknowledgements is al
ways liable to happen in the best
regulated households, just the
same as births, deaths.or marriages.

shient quantities will produce
snakes.
There was Noah for instance.
Noah wasn't what you might call
a hard drinker, and yet he liked d
little nip onct IN a while to cheer
him up. There is only one instance
on record where Noah took little
more than was good for hinl-that
was after he landed from the ark
and made some grape wine from
his vineyards. Noah kept sampline
the wine to see if If had got Z
