"OLD HICKORY'S" NERVE.
Ab Arrest by Jacksoa aad a Time He
Didn't Dance.
It was a fighting age in which An*
drew Jackson lived, and every man
who expected to command the respect
of the world went prepared not only
to fight at a moment's notice, bat
also to meet his man on the field of
honor.
It can be easily imagined that Andrew
Jackson, with his excitable nature,
his domineering manner and his
habit as regarding every opponent as
a personal enemy, was by no means
the most peaceably disposed citlxen of
the new settlements of Tennessee.
The stories of all his brawls and duels
would fill a volume.
Jackson's superb nerve is well illustrated
by the following anecdote
which comes down to us from the
time when he was supreme judge on
the Tennessee bench. One day a desperado
named Bean paraded up and
down in front of the log court house
and threatened to shoot sheriff, judge
and jury. Twice Jackson ordered the
micnu iu arresi me man, ana twice
the sheriff was overawed by the desperado's
threats and formidable appearance.
"Deputise me. I'll arrest him myself!"
said Jackson, losing patience
The sheriff complied, and Jackson,
taking two pistols, walked out into
the street. Bean at once meekly surrendered
"When the judge come walkln*
out," Bean afterward Explained, "I
looked him in the eye. an' I saw
shoot, an' there hadn't been shot in
nary other eye in the crowd. So I
says to myself, says 1, Ole hoss, it's
about time to sing small,' and so 1
did."
On another occasion, while Jackson
was riding circuit, he was stopped
by two rivermen?of the class whose
boasts It was that they were "half
bcree. half alligator, tipped with
snapping turtle"?and was told that
he would have to dance for their
edification. Jackson meekly answered
that he was not accustomed to
dancing without pumps, but that they
were in his saddlebags and if his captors
would permit ho would put them
on before giving the performance.
Nothing loath, they consented. Jackson
accordingly opened the bag and.
plunging in both hands, drew them
out with a pistol in each. Pointing
them full at the men. he roared:
- Ml 1 J a 1 J
11 wr wdu aws int* uancing!
Dance. you devils! Dance!*'.
They danced.?Chicago Tribune.

of interest to the people of all South
Carolina to learn that the Hoc.
Charles . Smith, of this place, lias
definitely decided to enter the race
for Lieutenant Governor in the coming
Democratic primaries. Mr. Smith
is one of the best and most substantial
citizens in South Carolina. He

community, and he has enjoyed the
nnnsal distinction for a layman of
serving is the presiding officer of the
Baptist Church Conventions of this
8tate. He has been a member of the
South Carolina House of Representatives

his record in that body has been an
enviable one. Mr. Smith is an earnest

hopeful of his election to this honorable
position, not so much on account
of the views which he holds
on that or any other public question,
as because of his general character
and ability as a man.
Richey Gets Fourteen Years.
Abbeville. March 4.?One of the
most sensational cases in the recent
criminal annals of this section was
concluded to-day. when R. A. Richey.
a prominent planter of Abbeville
county, was convicted of criminal assault
with recommendation to mercy,
the charge being that he ruined in
his own home a yong girl whom he
adopted after the death of her father,
when she wes a baby. The girl was at
the time of the alleged crime under
14 years of age. the constitutional
age of consent The girl is now an
inmate of the Door of Hope in Columbia.
Richey is a man of family.
Xo force in the commission of the
crime was alleged, the State relying
upon the theory that the girl was
under the age of consent.
Judge Dantzier refused a motion
for new trial. Tnder the special
statute covering the case the recomI
mendation to mercy reduced the punj
ishment from death to not more than
| fourteen years' imprisonment, the
i child being at the time over ten years
of age. Judge Dantzier gave Richey
j the full penalty of the law. sentenc
J ms nini to fourteen years in the pemj
tentiary.
Richey went into a convulsion
when sentence was pronounced and ,
medical assistance was necessary, j

of the case. .
Testimony was admitted at the
trial to show that Chester Kennedy
conspired with Quitman Johnson and
Ferdinand Grnbbs to take the life of
Marvin Holland and that Ussery was
shot by mistake for Holland.
Before Kennedy was placed on trial
