old Hickory's Desk.

To Judge Lewis Jordan, an Indiana man, and chief of the miscellaneous di- vision of the treasury department, has fallen the honor of owning desk at which the mighty Andrew Jackson used to work when president. Not long ago Judge Jordan was poking around in an antique furniture store in historic Georgetown, and came across a sub stantially built desk covered with the accumulation of years of dust and dirt Scraping the surface with his penknife he exposed mahogany foundation That was enough to convince him of it's worth to him. and he bought the desk for mere song. Then he took it home and proceeded to put it in shape. He was surprised almost into breath lessness when the cleansing process re- vealed to his astonished gaze the in scription
 Presented to his excellency Andrew Jackson by his friend, Caleb Pierce
 Judge Jordan has investigated the case thoroughly, and has been convinc- ed that the inscription is genuine. The women who have charge of the old Jackson home in Tennessee have offer ed him large sum for the desk. but he would not sell it at any price, Washington Herald.
