FOUNDED BY a MACCARTHY.
Blarney Castle and the Famous Stone
Which Irnparts Persuasive Powers.

Blarney Castle and the Famous Stono
Which Inparts Persuasive Powers.
Blarney castle was founded about
1850 A. D. by Cormack MacCarthy, sur
named 1.-The Strong" the lord of Mus
kerry and chief of a younger branch of
that great MacCarthy family who once
ruled all Cork and for many years
waged a fierce but, according to the
Pittsburgh Dispatch, not always sue
cessful contest for its possession with
the Saxon invader. In the struggle
the lords of Muskerry took an active
part and shared both the triumphs and
defeats of their illustrious kindred,
their stronghold of Blarney being sew
eral times lost and regained by them.
1t was captured in 1902 by Queen Eliza
beth's troops, but was restored to it's
owner, MacCarthy, who was created
Viscount Muskcrry. In 1642 the earl
of Orrery captured and retained it un-
til 1858, when the then Lord Muskerry,
who had been made earl OF Clancarty,
received it back. The last earl of
Clancarty espoused the cause of the
Stuarts, took up arms in behalf of
James II. and followed that unhappy
prince into exile, after his defeat. The
possessions being forfeited, William of
Orange granted the estate Of Blarney
to Sir George Jeffereyes, in whose
family it still remains. As stated pre-
viously, the castle was erected in 1850,
the date being inscribed upon stone
in the wall of the tower near its sum-
nit. The stone also bears the name of
Cormack MacCarthy, the founder of
the fortress. This is the stone known
to fame as the ''Blarney stone" It's
supposed power of imparting the gift
of persuasion and facility of language
to any person who shall kiss it has
been often described and extollcd in
prose and poetry, but its origin is not
known to a certainty

heard from in pathetic way, which illus
trates the condition probably of thousands
of whom these two are merely examples
A man, close TO the secretary of one OF the
leading government departments. within
a short space OF time received two letters
from different individuals reciting Il
touching story to the effect that they were
applicants for appointment, and had been
in Washington since the inauguration
waiting for action TO be taken in their
cases. They had visited the department
and promises had been made. They had
gone back TO their lodgings and waited,
aud, after growing weary of waiting, had
returned, only to he put off anew with
vague promises of recognition. Both men
were evidently in Il desperate state OF
mind over the uncertainty OF their pros
poets Both letters contained the same
th-eat-that if the writers were kept in
suspense much longer they would commit
suicide.

TITLES IN CHINA.
There Are Marked Distinctions Which Are
Risidly Observed.

Each of the nine degrees of nobility,
the first five of which are subdivi6ed
into three classes, are hereditary, the
first from the first to the twenty-sixth
generation, the last being only con-
fined to one, says the St. Louis Post
Dispatch. The honorable titles given
10 the state officers are also divided
into nine classes, with a subdivision of
each of these. These titles are entered
in all the family records, death no
tees, ancestral trees and tombstones.
In many instances they are inscribed
on wooden tablets which are suspend
ed over the entrance OF the house. The
patents of nobility are written on long
silver rolls with FIVE different colors,
with detailed record Of the bestowal
of the honor in the Nandschu or Chi
nese tongue.
The Chinese kingdom has also quite
e number of decorations for its favorite
sons. The highest honor for military
services is the yellow riding coat,
which can only be worn IN the pres
ence of the emperor. II bestows upon
its lucky possessor the privilege Of
riding within the imperial precincts.
Gen. Gordon, who suppressed the
TAPPING instruction, was permitted 10
wear the yellow coat. The feather Is
the usual form OF distinction given 20
meritorlous government officers Only
noblemen OF the highest rank a1d
great generals are accorded the three
eyed peacock feather The double
eyed feather is reserved for second-rate
officers, while the one-eyed plume is
given for any kind Of public service.
The blue crows feather is worn by
every member of the imperial guard
