HAS PIPE SMOKED
BY ANDY JACKSON
At Least II. d. Harris, OF Meridian.
Believes It's Genuine
Article.

Meridian. Miss. Nov. FIR. d.
Harris owns what II believed to be
the pipe that General Andrew Jack.
son presented to an Indian chief at
Charlottesville, on his march to New
Orleans. Tho pipe was found In an
Indian mound at Hickory. among the
bones and effects Of the Indians, and
was buried 4 number of years ago.
Mr.. Harris lives at Hickory and
says that he has remembrance Of the
Indain who plotted General Jackson
through to Louisiana, having seen the
Indian, who was an old man in his
(Harris') early boyhood.
The pipe is OF pure meerschaum,
and as there were no white people in
that section at the time. only Indians,
the pipe is undoubtedly the one with
which General Jackson smoked peace
to the Indians and secured their help
In plotting him to New Orleans 10
fight the British in 1912. The bowl Of
the pipe is Of rough finish and Is iden-
teal with the pipe smoked in the
days when Mississippi was the hunting
ground Of Red Men only The Indian
who owned the pipe died sixty years
ago. according to Mr.. Harris. and was
buried in one of the mounds near
Hickory.
Natives in that section years ago,
Following the report that the United
States Government had given an In
dian chief $4,000 for his services ia
aiding General jackson, searched the
whole section with divining rods in an
effort to find the treasure, which. so
far as Is known. has never been To-
Gated.
Mr. Harris. who visited the Me-
ridian Star Office and exhibited the
pipe recently. said that the town OF
Hickory was named for General jack
son, who was called "Old Hickory"
He also declares that the Jackson
Military Highway passes right through
his farm, as he has from boyhood
known 1t as the Jackson Road. In
further evidence OF his claim he says
that there are still evidences of the
bridge which General Jackson built to
carry his tro3s and wagons over the
river

bored the idea Of assisting in a move

that she herself inaugurate fund to
this end the star Immediately deslg-
mated her Willingness by depositing
her check for $3.50 in the Commercial

the credit Of the Edgar Allan Poe

PREDICTS WAR WILL
CHEAPEN NITROGEN

Hot Springs, Va, July 15.-W. H.
Bowker Of Boston, addressing the Ma
ti0naI Fertilizer association conven-
ton here today, declared one Of the
beuefcent effects Of the European
war would be cheaper nitrogen and
predicted it probably would be dis
closed that the German chemists had
found new processes for making that
element, probably extracting it from
the air.
One OF the essential ingredients Of
destruction in explosives Is nitrogen, -
he said "Chile saltpetre has been
the chief chemical source. While the
ports of Germany appear to be closed,
she does not seem to be disturbed
about it. It is evident that the leu
tons are getting nitrogen for their eX-
pIosives and their agriculture from
other source than Chilean nitrate,
from coal and from the air by new
process. After the war is over, the
world will have the benefit of their
discoveries. tt will be remembered
that beet sugar was an outcome OF the
Napoleonic wars"
Mr.. Bowker said coal in the United
States was one of the greatest sources
Of nitrogen and he estimated that the
1913 production of the first coal pro
ducing states was sufficient to produce
80 pounds Of nitrogen for each acre of
improved land in the United States
He urged steps to recover the nitro
gen from consumed coal
