The Sunshine Valley correspondent
Of the Greer County Weekly Sun gets
a large-sized hump on himself and
gives as his idea OF what is meant by
gall the following;
Call is suhlimated sudacity, tran
scendtu impndence, immAculate
nerve, triple plated cheek, brass in
solid slugs. j; is what enables a man
TO borrow five dollars Of you, forget to

should be hddling on stick Of cord

gress OF the United States. 1t is what

fortune but folly, no prospects but
poverty, who lacks business ability TO

manifest our immeasurable gall by

Around the world in 80 Days.

The proprietor Of Paris periodical re-
Gently made bet conditional to the
completion of the Trans Siberian Rail
way before the end Of the year 1900. If
this road is then open to traffic he pro-
poses to make O trip around the world in
80 days. This is quite an improvement
upon Jules Verne's romance, around
tine World in so Days" which at the
time of it's being published was believed
to lie an impossibility. The possibility
uf making this trip within month ia
really not remote, and the editor in quss-
tion has laid ont his itinerary as follows
Leaving Paris au noon on thu first of
the month he will arrive at st. Peters
burg within 80 hours, or on the evening
of the second. Leaving for Siberia the
same night he expects to arrive at
Vladivostock on the ninth. A steamer
of the new Trans-P Pacific line, for which
thrae vessels are now building in Eng
land, will land him in San Francisco in
ten days, SO that he may be expected
there ON th nineteenth. From San Fran
cisco to New York four and one-half
days will likely be consumed in 400
and the passenger may take a steamer
leaving ON the morning of the twenty
fourth. This would land him at South
ampton on the morning of the tbirtieth
and he may reach Paris on the evening
Of the same day, with from twelve to fl
teen hours to spare.

under discussion in that body, a letter
was read from the accredited represen.
tetion at Washington of the United
States of Colon bia, of which Nicaragua
| is state. pointing out that the Nicara-
qua Canal Company had at the present
time.no legal existence insColom bia, that
| it's concession had expired because it
had not fulfilled its contract with the
government and that in consequence E it
had no right to buildsa canal across the
isthmus. The effect of the letter was to
show that the Nicaragua Canal Company
was asking for loan of the govern
ment's credit under what was essen
italy false pretence. If it were true
land nobody dou BITS that it was certain
" friendly act On the part Of the
Colomb ian minister1to make 1T known to
our government and it ought to have
peen accepted as such. A private indi-
Vldual who had Eeen asked for loan
Woaid have been very profuse In his
thanks to party who had warned him
that the borrower was not what be pro-
fessed to be. hut the Colombian minis-
ter's disclosure met with 10 such recep-
tion-at least at the hands of the friends
of this bill. Instead OF compliments
Senior Rodriguez got curses. Senator
Morgan characterized his letter as a
black mailing scheme and very broadly
intimated that what Nicaragua thought
or did wouli not count for much In this
matter. Yet it is we'll known fact
that concession from Nicaragua is an
essential condition precedent for the
building of this canal. Unless We are
prepared by force and arms to seize and
hold the country (and of course we are
notl-we must rely upon Nicaragua's
friendliness and generosity to grant us
what we want. Whnt effect upon he.
disposition is the denunciation of her
minister by Senator as blackmailer,
and bullying attitude toward her likely
to have? Is it likely to promote friend
Illness? Is it likely to incline Nicaragua
to give us what we want and must
hhve if this canal is to be built
by Americans? The answers to
these questions are obvious.

spirit would never lead to anything ex-
cept war. No nation would be likely |
to make treaty with us after she hnd |
been ridiculei and denounced GA the /
roor OF the Senate, as both Italy and |
Colombia have been ridiculed and de-
nounced within few weeks. Let the
United States Senate undertake to con-
duct foreign negotiations lin open session
and In a short time we shall not have q
friend on earth. A proposition has been
made to discuss the arbitration treaty
with England in open session. There
onght to be universal protest against
its adoption. Morgan and Mills and
several other senators could not possibly
fail to avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity which il would give them of
twisting the tell of the British limo.

Dean Farrar has besn writing of
Browning in the Temple Magazine, and
in tho course of his "reminiscences he
tells this story: 'Once," Browning told
the Dean, II was walk ing with my son,
who was then little boy, in the strears
Of Paris. We saw m old ma approach
ing us in long, loose, rather shabby
coat, and with STOPPING shutting atti-
tude and gait. Touch that man as you
pass him, ! whispered tn my little son,
: will tell you why afterward. The
child touched him as he passed, and
said to him. Now, my boy, you will al
ways be able to remember in later years
that you once saw and touched the great
Beranger' - Similar stories are told of
other great men, but rarely is the insti-
gator of the homage as illustrious as
Robert Browning.

A NOLAN MEDAN FUNERAL.
Strange Rites Over the Remains of Dead
Sc aman in New Orleans.

A Mohamm edan funeral was held on
the levee today. says New Orleans dis
patch to the Chicago Chronicle. The
British steamship Imaum is tied up
there, and she has in her crew about
twenty Lascars, one of the great Hast
Indian tribes. One of these men died
this morning after short Illness, and
motion among his fellow countrymen on
shipboard.
+ 1t is the custom of the Mohammedans
that the dead shall be buried on the same
day on which they die, SO ell arrange
ments were made for the funeral this
afternoon. One of the crew acted as the
imam, or priest, and supervised all the
arrangements and conducted tie service.
Helng one Of. the crew, he was located in
the forecasJle, and it was there that most
of the services of the religion were con-
Quoted.
One of the customs is that as soon as
they are satisfied that the man is dead,
0nesof the number lifts the body up and
shakes it vigorously. 1t is thon dis
robed, and the imam dashes hot water
over it. This done, tbs body is then
fODou IN garment lnScflDei W1tnaqu0Gh-
tions from the Ksran. In the meantime
the imam conducted tie funeral service
over the dead, no Europeans being adj
mitted to tue forecastle while this was
going on. Then the casket was brought
and the body placed in it. Theirs was
a hearse provided and tally-hoafor the
mourners, and then the cortege moved
up to a cemetery in Carrollton, where
there are number of Mohammedans
snA kn
nearly all attired in the fantastic East
Indian costume, with turbans, and pre-
scented quite an odd sight.
At the cemetery the imam again recit-
ed some prayers from the Koran, and
then the casket was lowered into the
earth, the imam directing the operation.
SO that the face of the dead man should
be looking toward Mecca. 1t is a custom
of the NOLAN edans that each body
should be buried under cypress tree, or
one should be planted near the grave, so
that it's branches should cover the grave.

Welsh is supposed to be derived from the
Celt word signifying strangers or for

it began to be called Ireland. The Scott
also settled Scotland and there retained

will contests and promote the distribu-
tlon of property according to the real de-

Connecticut legislator. 1t is to the
effect that every individual who makes a

who shall give public notice that will

to question the testator's capacity shall
have certain time in which to do so;

will shall nou be subject to attack on

over until next Tuesdayato give its opp O.
nents chance TO present their objec'
tiors to it. Until these are heard it may
be premature to express decided opin-

the bill does is to give the Boston &
Maine the right to purchase enough of
the proposed new issus of Maine Central
stock to retain its control of the latter
nothing objectionable. If it does m ore
then there may be reason for
opposing it-especially if it increases the
already toe large powers of the railroad
