The abolitionist was oStracised in the
north. He fought for his life in the
south. Clay's passing is an event closely
connected with. the greatest epoch of

was young in the fifties will recall his
premiership as an abolltionist and an

which displaced so many of the old GUS

was formerly entitled in Japan. as else
where, to wear a sword; indeed in
Japan he was entitled to wear two
swords. The retainers of Daimlo or
feudal lord also wore swords. The
medicine mems swords were generally
of a somewhat fanciful description, and
were made in many forms; some con-
tanned lancets, others contained knives

were quite plain.

m'KlnLEYs IN IRELAND.
Ancestors Of the President Lived at
Ballymoney.

Some two miles from Ballymoney,
in the northeastern corner or ireland.
there is a squatty farmhouse, with an
old stone seat outside the door, which
bears the inscription:
'w. Nick. 1885,
In this house many OF the ancestors
of William Mckinley, twenty-f1ffh
President Of the United States, lived
and died The building which the
visitor finds there at the present time
is more than a century old, and 1t
stands on the site Of an older struc-
tire which also belonged to the Nc
Kinley family.
Whether the progenitors OF Presi-
dent Mckinley came hither from Scot
land or were natives of the county OF
Antrim. they were staunch Presbyter-
ians. The church still stands where
they worshipped and where, at one
time, they listened to the stern sermons
of the Rev. John Tenant. OF Rose
lands. 1t was not until they came
to America that the presidents family
turned to the Methodist church.
There are many evidences OF the
prominence of the McKinleys in this
district of county Antrim to be founc
by the persevering antiquarian. Ihe
name of Shamus Og Mckinley, OF
Dewock, is mentioned in contract OF
1888 for the construction of road
along the shores of Tough Neagh. Da-
vid Mckinley, of Dewock, was col
lector of the county hearth tax in 1903
1t was from James, the eldest son OF
this David, that the American states
man was descended. James emigrated
to the new world while still young
man.
The names Hanna and Mckinley
have not always been coupled by bonds
of friendship. There was a Hanna who
once caused the death Of Mckinley
At the time of the Irish Rebellion, II
1898, Francis Mckinley permitted his

was hanged on July I, 1898. The bod,
now lies in the graveyard at Derr,

NEXT DOOR TO TREASON.

Governor Durbin Is right now as he

1t will not do to blacklist and boy

the Evansville employers appears it is
more excusable than the action of the
