ment's warning fired. Dave ran out
of the room and escaped the first
shot, but practically the entire con-
tents of the second entered his body.

ted the crime is only 10.

It has been known for some days

IMAM any President | have ever
kho"n' was the tribute of Mrs. Ra-

Executive, following his recent visit
70 the home OF her illustrious grand
Iather. / have been at The Her
nitage with the general, Mr.. Van
buren, Fillmore, Polk, and johnson.
knew Mr.. Buchanan well IN Wash
ington, and in recent years | have
met Mr. Cleveland and Mr.. MeKin-
ley; but Mr.. Roosevelt reminds me
more than any Of them of Gen. Jack
son.
Ills manner, while different from
the men of Gen. Jackson , time, as
everything to-day is different, was
the perfection Of courtesy and kind
ness, and what pleased me most in
what l saw Of him at 'The Herni-
tage' was the apparent genuineness
OF his kindness. / shall always re-
member his visit with pleasure
Mrs. Lawrence, now a woman of
seyenty-tiye and not very strong, is
daughter of Gen. Jaekson's adopted
son, and the only surviving child.
Since her widowhood, years ago, she
has lived IN retirement, excepting the
time when acting as hostess of Ten
nessee's building, a reproduction of
1.-The Hermitage" at the st. Louis
World s Fair. Her home is situated
about a mile from "The Hermitage, I"
near this city. No woman in Tennes-
see Is more devotedly admired by
those who have her friendship, and
nothing that the President did in
Tennessee has won him more hearty
well wishers than his attitude toward
Gen. Jackson's granddaughter, the
Little Rachel" of Old Hickory's
declining years.
Il am honored to have the oppor-
tunity of meeting Mrs. Lawrence, of
whom | have read much and to whom
| offer my profound respect" was
his acknowledgement of an introduc-
ton to her. In her album, a gift of
Martin Van Buren, containing on the
first page tender sentiment from
Gen. Jackson, the President wrote
''It is-a privilege to have the chance
Of writing in this historic little vol
ume. Theodore Roosevelt, October
3d., 1907"
The President also gave her most
pressing invitation to visit the White
House, reiterating it when he came to
take his leave of the old homestead.
Her gift to the President was one of
a set of silver spoons used constantly
by Gen. Jackson, in the White House
and at "The Hermitage" purchas-
ed in 1882, in Philadelphia, and bear
ing in the simple script, common to
the Jackson silver, the initials" A.
J.'
"There are only few of them left
and / desire you to accept it, sir,
from me- 1t is genuine, and one of
the few relics that | now have to be-
Stow was her return to him for the
many little words or acts of kind
ness that marked the day. This gift
was made as she handed the Presl-
dent cup of coffee.
