just a minute before. The u1rty Irish

The saints be praised The bloody
spalpeen" just got up and walked off.
His head was always full of barney; and
SO the talk ran on while Patrick felt a
little creepy between the shoulders, I'M
certain as to whether the dead man would
push his head up between the bushes and
hold him to account for his rough riding.
There was nothing to do now but to re-
trace their steps, and by following the
track of the sled, seek the lost corpse.
After beating the bushes backward for
about two miles they found the body on
the banks of Waxhaw Creek, short dist
ance above the crossing, tumbled on his
face in little bottom. That little bot
tom is there today, and on little barren
knoll near the road that today leads to
Waxhaw Church is where the sled turned
over, emptying its contents into the lit
tie bottom below. There is today the
same knoll, the same black bottom, and
Reese Massey's statement. Old people
today point out the place near the road
side and tell you that here Andrew Jack4
sons father fell off the sled while being
carried to the little Waxhaw Church.
Mrs. Jackson never returned to her
home, but she stopped for a few days
with her relative, Mrs Margaret Nc
Gamble, In what is now Union County,
about half mile from the South Carolina
line. Her two boys, Hugh and Robert,
went to their uncle's, James Crawfords,
where Mrs. Jackson had been invited to
make her home. While at the McCambe
home about week after the funeral,
Mrs. Jackson gave birth to third son
and named him after his father-Andrew
Jackson. All that remains of the old Nc
Gamble house is pile of brick and stone
overgrown with weeds and saplings, and
lost to view save to those who know by
tradition that this is all that marks the
birthplace of General Andrew Jackson. A
short distance away, on Waxhaw Creek.
are few old posts sticking their broken,
decayed, moss-covered ends a little above
the water. This is all that is left of
the Crawford mill, where Andrew jack
son worked with his uncle.
The descendants of Mrs. Jackson's sis
tiers still live around the old Waxhaw
Church. In one branch of the family
there has been handed down from genera
ton to generation a red silk vest that
was worn by a cousin when Andrew
Jackson was elected President For sew
enty-five years it has been treasured in
the family, and on election days the proud
owner unwraps this quaint old silk vest,
brings it forth like an armor to battle,
and swears by the shades of his illustrious
relative that Democracy is immortal, and
that the possessor of this valuable heir
loom must never be anything less than a
Jacksonian Democrat.
Still the people love to talk of the past,
they love to show you the old church at
Waxhaw, the old mill posts where young
Andy assisted his uncle, the little for
saken mound of brick and mortar where
Jackson was born. They talk of revolu
tionary times, how an old veteran re-
turning from Charleston told of the death
and burial of Mrs. Jackson. They talk
of Andrews boyhood; how he thrashed

Wilcox had worked hard and it was

Ruler, he said, but he stood for truth.
He argued that 81. 400 travelling ex-

sufficient. He said the payment of this
claim meant authorizing private parties

FOR FIRE CLAIMS WORK.
When the item for the reimbursement
of the Merchants Association for the
expenses Of j. G. Pratt at Washington
came up, Kunalae moved to strike out.
Harris defended the item, saying that
Congress has done nothing for Hawaii
except where there has been hard work
done by some one. Kaniho said that
though Pratt might have worked. yet
the people were represented at Wash
ington by their chosen delegate, who
was working hard for the people and
he was making every effort to secure
the appropriation. He said the Mer-
chants sent on their man. who inter-
fered with the work of Wilcox. and
they should not ask that there be-
money appropriated for having defeat

tive in many things. yet in fact wilcox
had worked for this matter and it was
fair to presume that it was his work
which won the measure.

similar requests would follow and
would open the door, so that the same
people would send a man away again

ment a motion to send to a special

be deferred, and the item was then

finally passed providing $4,000 for seq

49, 600 for Goto medicines. Kaniho
wanted to appropriate $4,000 to send to
Japan for DR.. Goto. He did not take
the trouble to specify for how long this
sum should apply. Aylett said Goto

ed to have effected a cure, but the

Paele then proposed $1,000 each for

Fifth District appropriations Harris
opposed this. on the ground that the
outside districts received the special
road tax and now had a balance OF
81. COO while the Kona district Of Hawaii
has no such tax. The items were pass
ed. Vida then moved that the item for,
the Fifth District be made to include

pounds OF hay. Cattle will eat per
head about one hundred pounds Of
pulp and twenty pounds Of hay per
day. thereby saving one half the
amount OF hay and fattening the
cattle at the same time. The
feeding value Of pulp based on the
present market price OF corn would
be about 81 per ton.
The Colorado experiment station
concluded after exhaustive expert
ments that for certain purposes pulp
costing Sl.5O per ton could be- fed at
a profit.
TIE Michigan station decided that
ton Of pulp produced Al pounds,
live weight, Of beef. This ut five
cents, ordinary price, gave the pulp,
without profit, a feeding value Of
q. .05 per ton.
The New York expe iment station
decided that in feeding value a ton
Of pulp was equal to one-half a ton
Of silage.
The courts OF Germany in connec-
tiOn with litigation instituted exten.
sive scientific and practical expert
ments In feeding and arrived at the
following conclusions: (a) For beef
cattle pulp Is worth $l.32 per ton.
(b) For work oxen 1t is worth 81
cents per ton. (c) For milch COWS it
Is OF much more value than for any
other purpose. (d) For sheep it is
worth 81. "A per ton.
For dairy purposes the fresh pulp
is especially desirable, as it will
materially increase the flow of milk
and keep the animal in a healthy
condition. Pulp ration for sheep Is
from eight to ten pounds per head
per day, and from eighty to one hun
dred pounds per head per day for
steers. 1t is perhaps desirable to
finish both sheep and steers on corn
in connection with pulp to harden
them.

Do Not Care Much.

John f. Painter of Roggen, one of
the most successful stock raisers in
Weld county, was in Greeley last
Friday on business. He stated that
the present low price Of cattle made
but little difference to stockmen, as
but few of them were ready TO sell
anyway. Nearly all the stockmen
sold out very close last year when the
price was good and they would about
as soon carry their present stock over
another season. He also stated that
there would be but very little stock
lief. on the range this winter, as
nearly everybody was taking his cat
tie home and feeding them at the
ranch. There are several fertile
little valleys down toward Roggen
and the cattlemen making up the
population there can raise from 200
to 500 tons of hay each season.

Roberts Won.

The case OF the Scott Supply Il
Tool company against John P. Roh-
erts that occupied the attention OF
the county court nearly all of last
week was decided il favor of defend
ant last Friday. Mr.. Roberts some
thing over year ago put in pump
ing plant on his farm near Lucerne,
to be used for irrigation purposes,
The pump he secured, but could not
fnd a second hand traction engine as
he desired, so ordered second hand
gasoline engine from the Scott people
of Denver. The contract called for
the operation Of the plant August l3
cf 1902. The engine failed to work,
so Mr.. Roberts refused to pay for 1t,
the amount being about s575.
1t took the jury only fifteen min
utcs to decide that plaintiffs had no
case. The case may be appealed to
the district court.
