Tells Barnwell Sheriff Can't Arrest Alleged Georgia Fugitive. Barnwell, August 16.?Governor Mease has placed Sheriff J. B. Morris, >f this county, in a very embarrassing )osition by his refusal last night to illow the Barnwell official to arrest in alleged murderer from Georgia, Sheriff Morris had been requested by he sheriff of Richmond County, Georgia, to be on the lookout for Will tush, a negro, who is charged with laving committed murder last Deember. Rush was located at Olar md a warrant for his arrest was sent o the sheriff here. Capt. Morris went o Olar last night to get his man and ound him in the employ of Dr. Layon Hartzog. Dr. Hartzog objected 0 being deprived of his cook, and isked that he be allowed to comnunicate with Governor Blease. He [id .this over the telephone and the Jovernor informed Capt Morris that le had no right to arrest the negro without requisition papers. Governor Mease, it is said, told Dr. Hartzog hat if requisition papers were goten out that he would set a date for 1 hearing?that as the Georgia offiers refused to arrest fugitives wantid in this State they would be acorded the same treatment, the refer(nce doubtless being to the Zachry ase. Having no other recourse Sherff Morris was obliged to leave Olar without his prisoner. The affair has caused considerable idverse criticism of the Governor, >oth here and at Olar. In addition iheriff Morris is embarrassed over lot being able to arrest men for the Georgia authorities, who, he says, tave always done all that they could o assist him in arresting criminals ranted in this county. CARD FROM DR. HARTZOG. lays His Cook not Man Wanted by Georgia Authorities. To the Editor of The News and Courier: Whereas the piece from Sarnwell headed "Governor Blease lays Nay," in the Sunday News, is an njustice to the Governor as well as ayself, in making the construction hat I am sustained by the Governor n defending and protecting an allegd negro murderer, who fled from ustice in Richmond County, Ga., last )ecember, I take this opportunity of enying the allegation. I have under ay employ a negro cook who happens o have the same name as the negro ought by the Georgia officials, but oes not answer the description of he man wanted. Also, I have furished Governor Blease with concluive evidence that the negro under ly employ was not in Richmond !ounty, Ga., at the time the crime ras committed. The circumstanceseing as above stated, I could not see rhy an innocent ne^ro who was born | nd raised in this locality and who ears a good reputation here should e imprisoned, thereby depriving me f his services and putting me to xtra trouble and expense. If there .ad been any evidence of guilt I rould not have raised any objection, did not feel like being imposed upn 60 I called up Governor Blease a the presence of the sheriff and tated the facts. The Governor ruled hat the sheriff has no right to make he arrest without requisition papers, appreciate the ruling of the Governr, and not one word of criticism gainst his action has been heard ere. The Barnwell correspondent robably had a dream to this effect. The man under my employ can be ound in Olar at any time for the urpose of identification. Leighton A. Hartzog, M. D. Olar, August 18 Not Real Fighting. The conversation drifted to domestic infelicity a few nights ago rhen Senator Luke Lee, of Tennesee, told a story which would seem o indicate that there is a mistaken Sea as to what constitutes a real amily fight, says the Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. Down in one of the Southern states ecantly, so ran the senator's narraive, a colored man and his wife rere haled into court on a charge of lisurbing the peace. "Rastus," said the magistrate, adIressing the husband, "you are acU6ed of disturbing your entire neighlorhood on Tuesday night. What :ave you got to say for yourself?" "It wah dis way, jedge," explained tastus, glancing first at the magisrate, and then at his wife. "Me an' .ucy got into an ahgument obah de oin she got fo' a week's wash.

"I see," commented the magisrate, "And then what happened?" "An' den, jedge," answered Rastus , nth great deliberation, "an' den we >ergun to fight." WIFE KILLED BY SLANDER. Mrs. Andrew Jackson Was Driven to Her Grave by False Stories. The successful culmination of Col. Roosevelt's libel suit against a Michigan editor brings back memories of other presidential candidates to whom the gods have been less kind in this regard. Slander, like death, loves a shining mark, and there have been few of our presidents, from Washington down, who have been able to escape its slimy fingers. But perhaps the most pathetic case of all is that of Andrew Jackson, whose wife was ' literally driven into the grave by the - . . i false stories circulated by her busband's enemies. Mrs. Andrew Jackson was the daughter of a Tennessee pioneer, Col. John Donelson, who came from Virginia in 1779, floating down the Holston and Tennessee rivers and up the Ohio until he reached the present site of Nashville. His daughter, Rachel, a black-eyed child of 12, was 1 with him, and the Donelsons, accus- ^ tomed to all the luxries of Virginia, ' settled down to life in a log cabin. A few years afterward they were liv ing on a plantation in Kentucky, a 1 country not quite so rough and with a few less Indians to the square mile. 1 Still, the civilization of Kentucky was by no means effete. They married early in those vigor- ' ous times, and when Rachel Donel- ' son was 17, she became the wife of 1 Lewis Robards, a man who bore the title of captain and the distinction of belonging to a "first family." That was about all that could be said for 1 Lewis, however. Robards had a bear- 1 ish disposition, continually found fault and was insanely jealous of his 1 wife. Whenever Robards heard of a man's speaking pleasantly to his wife, 1 i? "u-?- ?J ~ lie weiii nuiLie aiiu star Leu a. lamu.j' row. That there was not the slight- 1 est reason for his miserable attitude ; every one agreed?even Robard's ! mother. Three years after the wedding, 1 however, the churlish captain wrote ( to his wife's mother, telling her to come and take her daughter home. 1 A year later there was a reconcillia- ' tion, brought about by Judge Over- 1 ton, who was a boarder in the Ro- 1 bard6 home, and Mrs, Robards came : back. This time, in addition to the judge, she found a young lawyer 1 named Andrew Jackson also living : there. Almost at once the quarrels j began again, and both Jackson and I the judge left the house. * Jackson was particularly distressed by the whole business. He liked and ] admired Mrs. Robards and the < thought that he had been the cause, < though innocently, of trouble between her and her husband, cut him tremendously. But Robards had once more sent his wife away. Two years later it was reported { that the legislature of Virginia had { granted the captain a divorce, and a ^ few months later Jackson married < Mrs. Robards. Not until two years later aia it Decome kuowh mat, me Virginia decree was not final, and ( that Robards had not procured his . decree until after Jackson had es- , poused his ex-wife. There was no , mails in Tennessee or Kentucky in j those days, and news was slow and unreliable. At once Jackson hasten- 1 ed to have a second marriage cere- J mony performed. i The story' of the Jacksons' home s life in Tennessee is a delightful one. J Mrs. Jackson, having found a haven ] at last for her troubles, blossomed : out like a thirsty wild flower after a 1 rain, finding the keenest delight in 1 all the simple pleasures of the rural 1 home. Those were the days of lav- ] ish hospitality, and the Jackson plan- < tation was the centre of neighbor- i hood gayeties. Particularly did Mrs. Jackson delight in having young peo- J pie around her, and there were a < host of boys and girls to whom she < was "Aunt Rachel." 1 "The general was the prince of : hospitality," one of his neighbors : said, "not because he entertained a * great many people, but because the 1 poor belated peddler was as welcome 1 as the president of the United States s and made so much at ease that he felt as though he had got home." < And as for Mrs. Jackson?"no i bashful youth or plain old man, < whose modesty set him down at the < lower end of the table, could escape < her cordial attention any more than : the titled gentleman at her right and ; left." 1 They had no children, but a neph- 1 ew of the general's was adopted into < the family, and a traveler who visited the Hermitage one raw February ] night tells of finding Jackson sitting i alone in the dusk before an open fire, 1 a lamb and a child between his knees, i The child had cried, Jackgon explain- : ed, because the lamb was out in the < cold, so he had brought it into the i house. ' 1 Mrs. Jackson was very devoted to 1 her religious observances; her hus- < band built a little Presbyterian ] church upon his place, where the i neighborhood might worship. When in the summer of 1819, he ] built a new house, it was built en- : tirely to conform to her desires. Rose i TO BRIDGE BEAUFORT RIVER. Congressman Byrnes Introduces Bill in Favor of Beaufort. Washington, Aug. 17.?Representative James F. Byrnes, of the second district, has introduced a bill to authorize the city of Beaufort to con struct and operate a bridge across Beaufort River, in Beaufort County,: S. C., subject to the approval of the war department. The measure was referred to the committee on interstate commerce, of which Judge Adamson, of Georgia, is chairman, and is quite likely to be passed at the present session the Democratic caucus having recently decided to open the gate to legislation of this character. QUAIL TRAINED TO FIGHT. India Natives Starve the Birds While Training Them In India?that land of so many strange things?the natives take keen delight in training quail to tight each other and make wagers on the bird they think will win. No doubt, you have seen two roosters ruffle up their feathers and fly at each other in their barnyard; well, in India, the quail are encouraged to do the same thing by the cruel natives. And they train them to he good fighters in a most peculiar way. First a young quail is taught to eat millet seed from the hand of his master. Then, after he has become accustomed to being handled and to pick up the seed, he is placed on a table, or on the floor, upon which is a small mirror and several seed. The quail has not been fed tor some time so, as soon as he spies the seed he makes for them. But just as he is about to pick them up his master puts his hand over them and takes them away. He does this over and over again until the poor bird is almost frantic for something to eat. Then the master repeats the trick, but holds up the mirror so the quail can not help but see himself in it. And he, poor, hungry, deluded creature, thinks his own reflection is another quail that is about to pick up the seed just as he is about to pick them up. So, enraged, he flies at the mirror. Then an older and a thoroughly trained quail is brought on and?the poung quail attacks him, thus receiving his first lesson in fighting. Like game roosters, the quail have long and sharp spurs; and often one bird kills another in a fight, while the natives crowd around and make wagars and utter cries of delight and encouragement to their chosen fighter. ?Houston Daily Post. Heyward Thanks President. Washington, August 17.?Former Governor Duncan C. Heyward called pn President Wilson Friday in company with Representative Richard S. Whaley to thank the President for Mr. Heyward's appointment as collector of internal revenue for the district of South Carolina. Mr. Heyward knowrs the President quite well, their acquaintance having begun when Mr. Wilson was practicing law in Atlanta, Ga. pines clustered over great cdlumns, and it was set in a rich wilderness of foliage. The devotion that both Jackson and his wife felt for this place is almost pathetic. When he was appointed governor of Florida in 1821 and had to go there to live we find them both longing for their sunny home in Tennessee. And in 1828, when Jackson was nominated for the presidency, his wife regretted that his election would mean leaving the Hermitage. Jackson's political enemies were pot slow to make capital of the story pf his wife's divorce. It seems a purious thing that after more than thirty years of blameless happiness so much could have been made of so small a thing. But stories were told 5nnrintpd un and down the country that form a- pitiable commentary on the political ethics of the day. Jackson did his best to shield his wife from all knowledge of the wretched tales, but one day while she was in the parlor of an inn in Nashville she overheard two men in the next room discussing her with the easy assurance with which we treat our public men and their families. Her horror at the things they said brought on a heart attack?she had for some time been in precarious health?and a few days later she died. Jackson had already been elected president. The gray-haired fighter's ?rief over his wife's death was boundless, and more th^n one man and woman who had been instrumental in spreading the stories felt the weignt of his wrath in later days in Washington. Xo man, indeed, ever ventured to question a woman's reputation in the presence of the president, it is said, and there are tales of men who were deprived of office for this very thing. "Old Hickory," always a chevalier, became the champion of women everywhere and so remained until his death.?Kansas City Stary BANK STATEMENT.
