ination in the Ninth district, but Yves unsuc-
cessful. Two years later he was the unani-
nous choice of tie Republican state conven-
ton for the Office OF lieutenant governor, but
with the rest of his ticket was defeated at the
polls. In 1880 he was strongly talked about
for candidate for governor, but declined to
enter the race for the nomination. In 1886,
when it had been held that vacancy existed
in the office of lieutenant governor, to be
filed by an election, he was the nominee of
the Republicans over his protest, and led his
ticket to success. For several years he held
the position of register in bankruptcy for
the United States district court. Governor
Porter rendered him an appointment of
judge of the supreme court, to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of Judge
Woods, but he declined it. He is tail and

serious than Stonewall Jackson Prior TO

tary Institute, and while in that position
he made what is believed to have been his
first and last joke.
One morning he called up q member Of
the graduating class, and with the utmost
gravity propounded the following scientific
question "Why is it impossible to send
telegraphic dispatch from Lexington to
Staunton ?n The cadet reflected for some
moments, and than replied that the expla-
nation of this phenomenon doubtless lay in
the fact that the amount of iron ore in the
mountain drew the magnetic current from
the wires. A covert smile touched upon
Jsckson's features. fed away, and he said ::

the mystery. A third, and then fourth
were equally unsuccessful, Jackson listen.
ing to their theories with profound atten-
ton, but with the same sly smile which had
greeted the first attempt. This smile proba.
bly, attracted the attention of the next cadet
who was called. His countenance lighted
up, his lip broke into q smile in return, and
be said "Well, Maj Jackson, reckon it
must be because there is no telegraph be-.
tween the two places" "You are right,
sir, replied Jackson, who had suddenly re-
sumed his composed expression. "You can
take your seat"
Then he called the class to order, and
calmly proceeded with the recitation as II
