RECOUNTING A
BIT OF HISTORY
Attempt Of Richard Lawrence to A.
sassinate President Andrew Jack
son Graphically Retold.
QUEER MANIA OF a MAoMAN
Sought to Kill "Old Hickory" and
Only Failed Because khe Pistol
Missed Fire,

Since the establishing Of the United
States, three successful attempts have
been made to assassinate our presi-
dents, and another one was failure
only through the weapon not discharg-
ing, when it was drawn upon Presi-
dent Andrew Jackson on Jan. 30, 1885.
The news Of this attempt spread like
wildfre throughout the country, and
CONSERVATION filled the public mind at
the thought that the tragic mode Of
dealing with <he crowned heads Of
kingdoms and empires had at last been
tried upon the person of the popularity
elected ruler Of free republic.
At the time of the attempted assas-
sination Of President Jackson. he was
at the capitol. in attendance on the
funeral Of Hon. Warren II. Davis Of
South Carolina. The assassin was
Richard Lawrence, a painter, residing
in Washington. This individual was
seen to enter the hall OF, the house Of
representatives during the delivery Of
the funeral sermon, but before its
close, however, he had taken his stand
on the eastern porticO. near one of the
columns.
The president, with the secretary Of
the treasury, on retiring from the ro-
tunda to reach his carriage at the steps
of the portico advanced toward the
spot where Lawrence stood. The paint
err had his pistols concealed under his
coat. When the president approached
within two yards and half Of him
Lawrence extended his arm and lev
eled the pistol at the presidents breast.
The percussion cap exploded with a
noise SO great that several witnesses
supposed that the pistol had been dis
charged. On that instant the assassin
dropped 1t from his right hand and,
taking another ready cooked from his
left, presented and snapped it at the
president, who at the moment raised
his cane and made for the assailant
with lionlike energy and would have
executed summary vengeance, but
Secretary Woodbury. and Lieutenant
Godney at the same instant laid hold
of the man, who gave way through the
crowd and was at last knocked down,
the president pressing after him until
he saw he was secured. As soon as
the act was known to the evowd they
wished to kill the assassin on the spot.
Lawrence was at once conveyed to
Jail. When asked why he attempted
to kill the president the assassin said
because Jackson had killed his father.
This proved to be hallucination on
his part. The total absence Of any
personal motive on the part Of the
prisoner suggested the idea that he
must be insane.
Lawrence was handsome young
man Of thirty-five years, small in stat
ure, pale of complexion. with black
hair and dark eyes. So great was the
excitement produced by the affair that

ponents of the president. including

ter, 'White and others, were I'm the
frenzy of the moment suspected of
having conspired in plot to get rid of
the president.
On the day Of the trial Lawrence at
first conducted himself in court with
much ease. taking his seat very quietly
beside his counsel and conversing
smilingly with them. But when the
first witness was called the prisoner
sprang to his feet and demanded to
know by what right they had brought
him there. as he claimed the crown of
Great Britain and also that of the
United States. He made these same
assertions frequently during his trial.
When Lawrence's counsel asked that
he be withdrawn from the court to
save further OF his ridiculous out
breaks the prisoner rose and addressed
the Judge wildly: "What I have done
to Jackson was on account Of the
money he owes me. consider all In
this court as under me. The United
States bank has owed me money since
1902, and want my money. You are
under me, gentlemen. 1t is for me.
gentlemen. to pass upon you and not
you upon me-"
It was not very difficult for the coun-
sci to prove that Lawrence was insane.
Many witnesses were called to testify
as to his peculiarities, covering num-
Der OF years. Several physicians were
introduced into the case, and they
were unanimous in declaring that Law
rence's state Of mind was that Of NOR
bid delusion.
In accordance with the evidence thus
given, the Jury was out only five min
utes, returning at once with a verdict
of not guilty. Lawrence was sent to a
lunatic asylum. where he remained an
inmate close to forty years.-Philadel-

PRISONER USES TIME WELL
Convict in Federal PenItentIary at
Leavenworth Has Perfected In
vention Of Considerable Value.

Theodore Murdoch. an inmate Of the
federal penitentiary at Leavenworth,
Kan, has invented q motor tire cas-
ing which 1t il claimed will preserve
the tire for distance of $4,000 miles
of rough wear, the Kansas City Star
says. During the five months he was
confined in isolation" Murdoch
worked patiently on the main feat
iures, perfected the specifications and
did everything else possible toward its
completion. except to make a model.
He then sent It to the patent office
at Washington.
On February ~ he received O letter
from the patent Office informing him
that his patent had been granted and
that Its number was 864309. Murdoch
claims that his Improvement excludes
any foreign particle from coming In
contact with the tire. prevents pune
.ture and blowouts, and at the same
time gives the same residence that
the tire affords in the absence Of his
casing, which ia fitted together 30 as
to preserve this most necessary feat
ure. The government ''roomer and
boarder" has been In communication
with some of the large motor car man
ufacturers, and he expects to sell the
patent shortly.
