Judge Wood, like all other officers,
was much interested in the report
that reached this city friends of
Slaughter and Green were hopping to-
ward Hot Springs for the purpose of
liberating the men" Judge Wood is
equally desirous that the two bandits,
who are regarded as being as desper-
ate as ever Jesse James dared to be,
should have fair and impartial trial,
but he is also determined the pro-
ceedings shall not be marred by any
demonstration on the part of friends
of the accused, and the steps he in
tends to take to safeguard both the
interests of the state and the prison
ers should, the thinks, be timely warn
ing to any who might be tempted to
try to liberate Slaughter and Green

Clifton Johnson, who has written

spend a vacation, in Peoples Magazine

motorists.

Lunch by the Wayside.
stopping at hotels for either meals
or lodging is not necessity on a mo-
tor trip. Some trippers carry along
food and do their lunching by the
Wayside whenever and wherever they
find It convenient. There have been
instances Of two persons with a large
car managing to spend a fairly com
Portable night in it. An automobile
tent has lately been developed which
can be attached TO the sides OF the
car for overnight camping stops
This has been used to great advantage
in recent years

There are instances, too, where q
whole family has covered many hun
dreds Of miles on a vacation trip with
q trailer behind their automobile to
convey a tent, bedding and other sup
plies. Each night they camped. and
the total expense was surprisingly
small and the total enjoyment was
surprisingly large
when Henry Ford, Thomas A Edi-
son and John Burroughs went off or
a vacation together last summer they
had an extra automobile follow them
