THE O'GORMAN MAHON.

He staggered On to Death a. He
Had staggered Through Life.
The O'Gorman Mahon was about
eighty years Of age when met him
for the first time. One could still see
what a lion of a man lie had been. He
was over six feet high. He had still
an immense name of snow white hair,
and he had long, white beard. The
face was long and horse shaped, the
eyes were. still bright and fierce and
defiant, and the voice had deep note
like the roar Of an enraged lion. The
O'Gorman Mahon> was the very pink
Of old fashioned courtesy, but one
could easily see what a man he had
been. He was the great duelist Of his
day, a survival of the squires who
live in the pages of the chroniclers of
Ireland before the Union. He had
been out dozens if not scores of times,
and there was a story Of his fighting
some three duels all in a morning.
1t was curious that he stuck to the
old dueling gospel to the end. l never
saw a man so disguised as he was

Harcourt for some insulting language
which Sir William had used to the
Irish chief. can still recall the scene.
1t took place at one Of the tables in
the tearoom Of the house. Of commons.
The old warrior turned up at the con-
sultation, looking almost radiant. He
shifted the dueling ground from afar.
Some two or three of the then young
colleagues of Parnell were present,
and this idea of a challenge appeared
to their modern minds, of course, as
something grotesque. But The O'Gor-
man Mahon had come in perfect faitn
that duel was certainty, and his
long, horse shaped face became visibly
longer as Parnell calmly said that he
did not regard dueling as rational or
necessary. The old gentleman was too
polite to express his real feelings, but
the panied silence which followed the
announcement Of Parnell sufficiently
revealed what he felt.
During the all night sittings of tho
eighties The O'Gorman Mahon was al

wore the same suit of clothes winter
and summer. 1t was curious light
colored heavy tweed. Somehow or 9th
er it seemed to accord with the white
name and the white beard. He also
was a great smoker, but instead Of a
cigar he used to smoke the democratic
pipe, and. if mistake not. the tobacco
was both strong and cheap. He could
tell very strange tales of the old days
In Ireland and in many other parts of
the world too. He had fought In some
of the many civil wars Of the southern
hemisphere and had many marvels to
relate of earthquakes. revolutions and
other natural and human phenomena
in those faroH regions.

Bee SINGERS for rheumatism.

After long experiments by bacte-
biologists in their employ an incorpo-
rated firm of wholesale chemists Of
Philadelphia has sent agents to Texas
with instructions to obtain all the bee
singers they can for medicinal pur-
poses. An offer for $4,000 stingers
was placed with one bee farmer in
that State. A serum for injection
through the skin will be made from
the potent fluid with which the tiny
weapons are charged. Of singers
efficacy for the cure of rheumatism
the chemists say their experiments
have left no doubt.
The tale of how scientists hit upon
the idea of experimenting with the
singers is told thus: A farmer atilict-
ed with rheumatism was set upon by
a swarm of bees and frightfully stung.
His face, neck and limbs were covered
with red spots and swollen for days.
When the swelling subsidized, to the
farmers delight, the rheumatism was
gone.
A special laboratory is being con-
structed near Philadelphia for the
transformation of the bee stingers in
to a serum.

Some Curious Eastern superstitions.

You can scarcely ever get your
money from Malay on Friday, be-
cause they believe that if they pay
their creditors on Friday they will
be overtaken with penury.
Malays never shave or cut their
nails Saturday or Tuesday, because
they are unlucky days, and if they do
part with their hair or nails on these
days they believe that they will be az
ways in trouble or will die quickly.
The Malay never sleeps in the af'
ternoon, for such an action shortens
life ! When a rat bites a Malay g
clothes, it signifies i'll luck, and usually
the rat-bitten clothes are given away
to the poor.
There is kind of a bird called by
the Malays Rowk-rowk which does not
build nest and lives in fields. The
Malays say that whoever obtains
Rowk-rowk's nest will become invisl-
bic as soon as he puts the nest on his
b cad. Of course, the Malays believe
there is such nest despite the fact
that the bird never builds one.
If a Malay feels that his right hand
is itchy, he is glad because he will re-
ceive large sum of money, and II he
feels that his right eye moves. ne
knows that be will see foreign friend.
If tears issue from either eye, he un-
dergtands that relative of his will
die, and if he too often forgets his
promises to his many friends, he Is
aware that be will die and will shed
tears rather profusely.
When there is an eclipse Of the sun
or moon the Malays abstain from taxi
ing food and perform their additions,
in order that no contagious disease
may attack them. Crows are an i'll
omen, and whenever a crow caw-caws
near Malay habitation it means
death to some one Of the inmates.
Surprising Malay walks along
road and suddenly black cat crosses
before him, he will at once turn back
and walk along another path. The
crossing of the cat signifies danger in
volving the loss fife.
You seldom see Malays bite their
nails, because this action is likely to
lead the doer into poverty, If a Ma
lay sees pig or chinese funeral be-
fore the sun rises, say at $50 a. m,
he knows that he is lucky, and what
ever he does on this day he is sure to
meet with success. Dreaming ofjumP.
ing a brooklet assures the dreamer
that death will ensue in a short time,
and in this case the unhappy man
generally distributes aims to the poor
so that his life may be prolonged. To
see a monkey in the morning is an i'll
omen and signifies the seer will lose
money heavily in trade,
