A "lint Htuff" Incident Thnt Ilrnkr V n Me.xli'iin Dinner I'nrly. Thn Tabasco sauce Incident, which plays such nn Important role In the Roor. Investi gation, reminds mo of 11 very harrowing ex perience of my own In old Mexico," said a railroad man to the New Orleans Times. Democrat man. "About ten years ago I went down over the Mexican Central to Chihuahua, nnd that being tny first visit to tho republic, everything was new and strange, especially the cooking. I hnd 11 letter of Introduction tn the commnndante of the city, who proved In be 11 courtly, Hiipcrh-looking old gent'eman, nnd hc I111- meuiateiy m.tuo preparations 10 give n (mi ner In tny honor nt his residence tho fol lowing afternoon. 1 wns a little embar rassed at so nr.ich attention, hut nt tho samo tlmo I wns nnxlnus tn got a glimpse of native social life, and when I put In nn ppearanro I round a renliy lirilllant assem blage, composed of the principal person ages nf tho place I was duly presented all around nnd, after a llttln ceremonious conversation, wo took our Heats nt the in itio, my own plnco being between niv host nnd his beautiful eldest daughter. Tho din ner wns excellent and everything passed off moothiy until ahoiit thn middle or tho re- past, when the commnndanto rctnnrked Hint he was about tn Invito my attention to 11 characteristic Mexican dish, which he had ordered his cook to prepare for niv particular delectation. 'It Is a local version or chlle-colorow. he said, 'and while It s a trlflo high flavored I will guarantee that you wl'l find It delicious.' At the same tno. tnent the delicacy made its appenrunce. it wns brick red in color nnd had (ho general aspect nf a thick vegetable stew. Seeing that I was a till timid the he.1utir.1l senor lta al niv Hide helped herself In 11 portion nml smllllngly swallowed a liberal spoon. fin. nun dissipated mv rears, and with out nnv further hesitation I proceeded to follow her example. To fully describe whnt happened next wou'd need nn uecompllshed linguist. A'nu couldn't posslhlv do It lus tico In one tongue. T felt as If I had bolted a iiuart of red hot carpet tacks. The roof of my mojth shriveled like a collapsed bal loon, rears ran down my cheeks like rnln. 1 cnuidirt nreatne. 1 leaped tn rav feet, gurgling horribly, nnd rushed around the room looking for water, which Is the last thing in the world you will find on 11 Mex lcuii table. Tho guests shrank back In ter. ror. supposing 1 had gone suddenly triad. nnd most nf the ladles went off Into violent hysterics; hut tho courteous commandantn ran nfter me and seized 1110 bv the Hying tails of my coat. Then ho held (men 111" Jaws whllo his beauteous daugh'ir poured r cruet of olive oil Into my sizzling gullet Thnt relieved me. but the episode bioke un the banquet and 1 dnre say It Is still a stock story in the best circles of Chihuahua -so; clcty.
