The country surrounding the Cough es-
tate in this part of Ireland is very pic
turesque and. has bits of natural scenery
that for pure sylvan beauty it would seem
impossible to find surpassed anywhere. 1t
Is rich besides, in curious and interesting
relics of the past. The most notable MEM
oriai OF the early ages in this neighbor-
hood is the round tower of Kilmacduagh,
with Its circle of the ruins of seven
churches surrounding it. The real use of
the round towers of Ireland has never
been found out, but the received opinion
now is that they were employed as places
OF refuge to which the monks retreated
with the riches of the churches when ma
rauding Danes or other piratical invaders
came in pursuit of spoil
1t Is supposed that the different surround
ing parishes each had its separate church
here, but all used the one tower of defense
against the common enemy. The tower of
kilmacduaSh is the largest of the round
towers in Ireland. and is in the most per-
rect state of preserva ton of any. Its con-
structicn Is on the same general plan as the
others throughout the country 1t is a
cylindrical tower of massive stonework
about $50 feet high and 60 feet thick at the
base, and tapers to the top, where it is sur
mounted by conical cap of masonry. For
about thirty feet up from the ground the
tower is solid mass of stonework At
this height is the entrance to the first
story. The door is arched and just wide
enough to admit one person at time This
story. as Well as the second and third, is
lighted by only one very narrow aperture.
The fourth or top story has. however, six
windows, from which a complete view of
the surrounding country could be had.
one very peculiar feature of this particu-
lar tower is that it leans at least seventeen
feet of the perpendicular

everywhere about, both inside and outside
of the churches.

Secretary Morton Wins the Admira-
ton of Mrs. VIM. n. Morrison.
Secretary Morton has profound and
abiding faith in his four boys. One cannot
compliment the Secretary more to his taste
than by complimentins his sons, and
good word as TO them will go further to win
Secretary Morton's favor than anything
that can be said of him. At the mere men
ton of one OF his boys his eye will light
up, an expression of pleasure will illu-
mine his face, and whatever he NAV be
doing will at once be suspended to permit
him to listen. All this is thrown out to be
OF use to people who have favors to ask of
Secretary Morton. The other day, as a
writer for The Star was told Col VIM R
Morrison, who had just returned from a
months trip through the west, where the
interstate commerce commission had been
trying various cases, met the rugged Sec
retary OF Agriculture.

an air of great satisfaction, my boys have
a great deal more sense than their daddy.
They know enough to tend to their busi-
ness and keep out of politics."
when Il was listening to those boys tes-

The Round Tower.

The castle throughout is richly furnished
in the manner of the modern British castle.
On former visit, in 1879, to this beautiful
residence. the room that especially inter-
ested its visitors was small, simply fur
nished boys room. 1t was, the servitor
who conveyed them over the house said,
with tears in her eyes, the room of young
Hugh Rudolph Cough, who had a few
months previously been killed in the Zulu
war in South Africa, in which at the same
time the Prince Imperial lost his life.
The three magnificent entrances to
Lcugh-Cutra are uniform in style, and the
ivy-bedecked lodges that stand guard over
the iron gateways are built in the same
form of architecture as the castle.
Although the laying out and arranging of
the grounds of the Lough-Cutra domain of
1900 acres show care and excellent taste,
1t is for its great natural beauty that it is
most admired and was chosen by Lord
Cough as home, and the aim in the
rangement of the grounds has been to pre-
serve as much as possible the original
grandeur of the scenery about the place.
One of the most curious freaks of nature,

The Main Doorway.

q magnificent residence 1t was built a
little less than a century ago by Lord Gort,
who, having expended his fortune in build
ing the castle and beautifying the domain,
was obliged to sell it. and it was finally
purchased residence by the first Lord
Cough. This was Hugh Cough, who gained
his successive titles of baronet, baron and
viscount received the thanks of parlia-
ment life annuity of f2,Ooo for himself
and his two next successors and was made
field marshal, through his various brilliant
victories in the wars with China and in
India.
1t was this Lord Cough who consum-
mated the annexation of the Punjaub to
Britain and captured the famous kohinoor
diamond, which he afterward presented to
the Queen of England. He was a man of
exceptional courage and chivalry, and is
said to have commanded more general ac-
tions than any British officer of the CEN
tury. At home, he was beloved and honor
ed by friends and tenants for his genial
and courteous manners. uprightness and
nc bility of character. He died in 1869, and
was succeeded by his son. the recently de-
ceased Lord Cough, who, though for some
time an officer in the Grenadier Guards and
served in China, was for the most part
man of quiet and simple tastes and pur-
suits. He spent great part of his time at
Lough-Cutra Castle, serving while there as
magistrate at the weekly sessions of the
court at Gort. He had three sons, the eld-
est of whom is the British attache and now
ICrd Cough.
Both inside and outside the castle are to
be seen memorials of the victories of the
sUbduer of India. Perhaps the most in
teresting of these are two Sikh guns. which
he captured in his last battle with the
Sikhs. The guns stand in the hall close to
the large windows on either side of the
main door of the castle. On the walls of
the hall and in the library, the Cough coat
of arms forms the design for the wall pa
per. In the coat of arms the names of
many of the battles in which Lord Cough
was the hero appear.

The Storage Battery.

'How about the storage battery?''
II had a great fight in the patent office
ever it, said Mr.. Brush. 1.-The invention
was fought over for four years in the
United States courts, and it was finally
decided in my favor. I was working on
the storage battery and had completed my
experiments at the time that Faure in
vented his storage battery in Europe. As
soon as 1 heard of it 1 filed patent appli-
cations for everything 1 had in order to
get my rights in America, before he could
apply for American patents. In some way
or other my patents were held back and
Faures interferences kept me out of them
for four years, but l finally conquered
and showed that I was the first inventor
Now l get a royalty on all forms of stor-
age batteries, and the storage battery of
today is founded on my invention.
"Will storage batteries be the street car
equipment of the future?"
II don't know as to that" replied Mr.
Brush. Il doubt 1t. You cannot run cars
so cheaply by them as the trolley. should
rather think it would be the underground
trolley"
next asked Mr.. Brush as to his present
experiments, but further than that he was
working along scientific lines he preferred
not to say. He is man of great intel
lectual activity, and his chief pleasure is
in his work. During our talk he told me
he thought the greatest enjoyment a man
could have came with the moment of max
ing some new discovery in science or me-
chanics, and there is no doubt but that his
experiments will be continued to the end
of his life. He has done wonders in the
past. What will he not do in the future!

During my talk with him 1 asked him a

his life. His father was farmer, who
lived near Cleveland. and he gave his boy
a good education. He showed wonderful

A BASE BETRAYAL.

Tampa, Fla, Dec. S.-The long prepar-
ed expedition of Gener. Enrique Collazo
has temporarily disbanded. 1t was COM
posed of 116 men, and was to have car.
ried to Cuba 200 Remington rifles, POO.
600 rounds of ammunition, one pinch
rapid fire Hotchkiss gun with 1000 rounds
of ammunition, many machetes, dyna-
mite and other powerful and secret eX-
plosives. The men who formed this band
have been encamped on various keys on
the southern coast of Florida for the past
80 days. The cause of disbanding was
partly delay of a steamer they expected
on several different occasions, but their
whereabouts and the location of the arms
and ammunition which they had buried
were betrayed by some one well known
Mississippian, who has been appointed
as captain of the artillery. deserted from
the camp the latter part of last week. All
the buried munitions were then removed,
owing to Sullivans movements. Shortly
after his disappearance the Spanish con-
sui in Key West was informed, and a
cutter left Tampa and Key West stimuli
taneously for Cape Sable, where the
camp had been. The searching party
found nothing, although they went d.
rectly to the spote where the arms had
been buried. The camp had already been
broken up and the munitions been re-
moved.
Should Sullivan be caught the Cubans
will have little respect for his comfort or
safety.
Six of the party arrived here tonight on
the Olivette from Key West. The Gu.
bans are jubilant, however, over the fact
that nothing was captured.
