MOHAMMEDANS OF INDIA.
Superstition Seems to Govern Most of
 Their Actions.

Superstition Seems to Govern Most of Their Actions.
 Moha mmedans of India are very superstitious. No Moha ammedan will take bath on Sunday or Tuesday. But if one bathes on Wednesday all misfortunes and misery that are in store for him till the next Wednesday will be averted. AS rule, all Moham- medans bathe on Fridays before going to perform the jumma prayers. For donning new clothes Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday are regarded as bad days. If any one dons new dress or puts on new cloth or allows his tailor to cut piece of cloth on these days, he will live miserable life till that dress or cloth gets torn or is thrown away. If shirt is torn and if the wearer wants to stitch it, it must be taken of, for if 1t is stitched while on the body the person will soon die. A Moham- medan will never allow barber to come near him on Tuesdays, for Tues days and Saturdays and Sundays are bad days for shaving. If absolutely necessary he will get himself shaved on Saturday or Sunday, but never on Tuesday, as his star is supposed to fall in blood if he does so. If one receives money or some valuable thing, 1t is taken with the right hand, for if 1t is taken with the left the person re- ceiving 1t is said to forget all about it very soon or to mislay it. A de- vout Mohammedan will not start on a Journey on Wednesday,. for it is be. lieved he will never return home safe ly if he does so And 1t Is said that even snake never ventures out of It's hole on this day

Col. A. J. OFT, a we'll known
eX-Confederate soldier of this
place, some time ago took up
the matter Of securing a pension
for George w. Lyons the blind
son Of the late w. w. Lyons who
was an eX-Union veteran, and
placed it in the hands of Con-
man woodward in order to have
Congress to pass a special act for
his relief. The matter was taken
up just before Christmas, by Col.
OFT, who in a short time passed
it up to our congressman who at
once got busy, so much so that
he informed Col. OFT by letter,
dated last Saturday, that he had
secured the passage of the meas
ure through the Lower House,
and that it had been passed up
TO the Senate where Senator
Scott now has the matter in
hand. 1t now would seem that

T. r. Stump, relative to securing
right-of way through tract of
land which Mr.. Stump owns on
the route of the proposed Elk
and Kanawha railroad, which
penetrates the rich timber and
coal fields Of the upper Steer
creek valley. Mr.. McMahen
had no trouble in securing the
right-of-way and the transfer
was made and paid in short order.
The road will be a narrow guage
common carrier, running from
Gassaway, to some point on
Steer creek, and the principal
object of its building will be to
transport the timber from the
30, 900 acre Bennett tract now
owned by the Standard 1t is
thought that the road will be
completed to Rosedale this year.
