A Tavern Bill That Was Wiped Out by
the Battle of New Orleans
The New York Sunday sun says
W., s1...- Z, -l---..,, ,.,.,, -; r,,s4 D.,

The New York Sunday sun says
When Andrew Jackson practiced law
in Guilford county, n. c., the fees that
rewarded him were meagre enough, and
the young barrister was not always able
to make his cash balance with his eX-
pcnse account. He practiced law in Surry,
as wen as in Guilford, and often spent
week at a time in the old tavern q Rock
ford. the county seat. This old town Is
now almost in ruins, but the older in-
habitants who knew it in other days re
call the stories Jackson's friends told Of
him.
Emanuel Crauor kept the Rockford
tavern Often Jackson was unable to
pay his tavern bill, and the landlord
would let the amount 20 over until the
next time When Jackson departed from
Guilford for his new home in Tennessee
he left bill of $24 due the tavern. Cranor
sent him one dun after another, carefully
noting on the book that no reply had been
received. When the newspapers contain
ing the accounts Of the battle of New Or
leans arrived. Cranor read the story
through He then walked across to the
register. and wrote in red ACROSS the page
beside Jacksons name:
TO balance in fun hy the battle Of
New Orleans.
The book is said 10 be in existence at
this day.
Judge Fuller of the United States
Court of Land Claims, says that the idea
that Jackson was rough and uncouth is
entirely Incorrect. He was weH versed
in the law. and the opinions written by
him while a judge Of the Supreme court
of Tennessee are said to he models Of
their kind.
1t has been discovered in the archives
Of Guilford county that Jackson was once
constable. with the rank of deputy
sheriff His oath and bond are now on
| file in the county documents. and one Of
the old citizens recalls the fact that the
oldest inhabitant" told him in his boy
hood how Jackson was assistant to the
| high sheriff
The old minute docket shows that An
drew Jackson was admitted 10 the Gull
ford bar in 1887 and was appointed con-
stable in 1889, two years after. He re-
signed as constable in 1871. The bond as

THE HOUSE RESTAURANT.
Hatch Matching New Brands OF Drinks
for New Members

Washington, Jan. Sex Congressman n
w Ii. Hatch, OF Missouri, who died re-
Gently, was regarded as somewhat eccen-
tric by some Of his friends" said Thom rs
j. Murray, formerly proprietor OF the
restaurant in the House of Representa-
tives. He firmly believed that the
death rate among the members Of Con
gress was augmented by what he called
the 'cussed carelessness' OF Washington
clearinghouse keepers many Of whom,
he asserted, cooked the food they served
TO the nations lawmakers in unhealthy
or poison forming utensils. He often said
that law should be passed compelling
sanitary experts TO inspect boarding
house kitchens before the proprietors OF
them could take in Congressman to
board. His fear Of injury to his health
from eating food cooked in an untinned
copper utensil became so strong that he
took up the chafng dish habit and be-
came an expert.
But he invented one dish which caused
many of his friends to decline, politely,
but firmly, a second invitation to eat
of it. The name Of this dish was oys-
ters la Hatch. 1t was prepared as fol
lows: Two dozen large oysters, a table
spoonful of parika, half teaspoonful or
salt and a bottle of ale. One dose of this
compound was all that he could ever get
fellow member to try.
Hatch. was not much OF a drinking
man, nor was he judge Of whiskey,
although he believed that he was He al
ways insisted on having his favorite
brand Of Kentucky Bourbon sent unopen-
ed 10 the table. After a careful inspec-
ton Of the cap and label to see that they
had not been tampered with, he would
draw the cork himself; but the bartender
in the House restaurant often fooled him
by filling up the bottle with rye, a brand
OF whiskey which Hatch said was not
fit for man, beast or devil
He was very fond of making new and
strange drinks, which he was wont to
test on: others. June %, 1894, he passed
his anti-option bill after a hot fight. and
he invented his 'anti-option tonic i'm hon

Der of Congress who started in to make
friends through the easiest way of form
ing acquaintances in Westinghouse
nobody refuses an invitation here-Hatch
would promptly lecture the culprit AZ
ter telling him how useless were such
acquaintances, he would lay down rules
whicl he claimed should govern the
drinking habits of a dignifed statesman.
These rules were: First never drink be-
fore breakfast; second, never drink any
thing but whisky; third, never drink
whiskey without diluting it with water;
fourth, never get drunk two days in sue
