UGH McCURDY of
Corunna, Michigan,
ha* won distinc

until be Is known
throughout the
country. In Mich
igan he Is not only
a leader of the Ma

but Is well known
as plain Hugh Mc
Curdy, citizen. He ha* been more
«han a Mason. He ha* been a cooper,
farmer, banker, lawyer—and politician
to a limited degree. For almost half a
century he has been Inside Masonic
ranks. He was given bis Introduction

«. August 5, 1850. Ten days later he
was a Master Mason. From that time

of the ladder, until, in 1893, at Denver,
be reached the top. He was elected
mo*t eminent grand master of the
grand encampment of the Knights
Templar of America. Mr. McCurdy
started a Masonic lodge In Corunna In

tie became a Royal Arch Mason. In
1873 he was unanimously elected grand
master of the grand lodge of Michigan.
Since 1865 ho has attended every
meeting of the grand lodge, except in
1868, when a funeral kept hint away.
A* head of the order In the state, ho
laid the corner-stone of the state cap
ital at Lansing, October 2, 1873. In
1875 he was grand generalissimo of the
grand commandery of Michigan. Two
years l3ter he was right eminent grand

thirty-third degree Mason and an hon
orary member of the supreme council
of the A. A. S. It. Masons for the
northern Masonic Jurisdiction of the
United States.
Mr. McCurdy had become known as

DISCOVERIES IN LEAP CASTLE.
Eleventh Century Stall-rasa Foil nit In an
Early English Structure.
From the Leeds Mercury: A Dirr
correspondent writes that a series of
Interesting "finds.” just discovered
In the historic Leap castle, have been
shown to a number of visitors. The
first and most Important was an elev
enth century stone spiral staircase
springing from the first floor level and
terminating at the summit of the great
tower, 100 feet high. This relic of a
remote past Is In a splendid state of
preservation. The finely cut stone
steps are laid with mathematical ac
curacy and are large, like tho passage
Itself. The O'Oarrolls, princes of Kly,
whose chief stronghold this castle was,
were .all big men—in fact, a race of
giants—as the few relics of them ex
tant attest. Hence the reason why ev
erything about the castle Is large. The
second “find” Is an entrance to the
guardroom cut out of the rock, and
which was up to the present believed
to he a mass of solid masonry. Here
numerous bones, coins of the reign of
Edward the Confessor and other relics
were found. Human bones In large
quantities, Hints and spear heads were
also found In tho extensive range of
dungeons which have been brought to
light beneath the castle, these curious
prison-houses being rock-hewn, and
their existence having been previously
unknown to the owner of the castle
and lord of the soil, Jonathan C, Dar
by. This gentleman Is the descendant
of the royal house of O’Carrolls of
Ely, whose family have remained In
uninterrupted possession of the 1/cap
for many centuries. The present own
er, aided by Mrs. Darby, has put Into
a complete state of preservation the
ancient chapel, an apartment twenty
live feet square and high, which is on
top of the tower, and here hus been
discovered a very large and line early
English window, which from Its great
elevation commands a view embracing
eight counties. A little below this Is
a remarkable room, which none of the
servants will enter after nightfall. It
was tho state bedroom of one of the
princesses of Ely, who was murdered
six centuries ago by her lord, and tho
•olid oak lioor retains the bloodstains
of the royal victim. This part of the
building Is reputed to be haunted, and
Mr. and Mrs. Darby, who do not be
lieve In ghosts, admit that they can
not account for tho extraordinary
noises that occasionally come from the
death chamber of the murdered prin
cess, and which make it nearly Impos
sible for them to retain their female
servants In their employment. The
manifestations are reputed to take the
form of shrieks, which resound and
reverberate through the building amt

Inside the prisoner cannot get out by
any Irregular way, but must be re

■Iso like a squirrel-cage, Inasmuch as
It is rotary. A prison of this sort Is
composed of three principal parts, the
building consisting of four walls and
a roof, In which It Is contained, and
the center revolving cylinder of cells.
Kvery part of this cylinder Is made of
the best Iron obtainable, and the whole
Is mounted on ball-bearings In such
a way that It may revolve at the will
of the official In charge. Ho accurate
ly Is the cylinder balanced and so
well are the bearings adjusted, that It
Is quite easy to move It by means of
a hand crank, though In actual prac
tice the power of a motor, either wa
ter or electrle, Is generally used. In
shape each cell exactly resembles a
hollow wedge, the big end of which
Is formed by a segment of the cylin
der's outside shell, while the smaller
end touches the cylinder's core. The
roof, floor and sides of each cell are
made of chilled holler iron, so hard
that the finest tempered ehlsel or the
keenest flle would hardly make an Im
pression upon It, None of these cells
has a door, though each one bus an
opening for going In and out. This
opening, however, cannot be used for
JAMAICA’S OPPORTUNITIES.
Tli* roullillltlr* of Winter Vegatabl*
Growing.
When I lived In the Island of Jamai
ca, a British possession, 1 was greatly
Impressed with the commercial possi
bilities of the winter vegetable growing
industry, says Collier's Weekly. Dur
ing those months when winter fruit
and vegetables are practically an Im
possibility In the markets of our north
ern and semi-northern cities, they
flourish best In Jamaica — and.of course,
in the other Islands of the archipelago
as well. Jamaica Is about 140 miles
long and from twenty to fifty miles
wide; Its surface Is mountainous, with
many valleys and few plains of moder
ate extent. Oranges and coffee are
the chief products of the mountainous
parts, sugar and bananas of the lower
levels and valleys. Vegetables are
scarcely cultivated at all; the negro
population, numbering over 700,000, Is
lazy and worthless, and can not be de
pended upon as laborers; they grow n
few yams on their little clearings, <:nd
are then content to lie In the shade of
their cocoas and mangoes and let the
year go by. The coffee Industry lan
guishes; there Is hardly any sugar
making worth talking of now going
on; there Is not on the whole Island a
single orange grove, recognizable as
such by an American cultivator; all
Jamaica oranges are practically wild,
anil of numerous varieties, some poor,
some of the best In the world, but all
alike jumbled together for export; so
that Jamuda oranges have a bad name.
There Is an American company In con
trol of the banana trade, and the ex
port Is as large as the consumption
warrants; hut no vegetables are ex
ported ut all. The steady work on the
plantations Is done by coolies brought
under contract from India, and re
garded with disfavor by the negroes.
Now, If 10,000 acres only were set
apart for the cultivation of vegetables
during the months from December to
April, and the produce placed for sale
In our seaboard cities, the profits over
and above all expenses and accidents
would ho so enormous that I shall not
state them; the balance sheet has been

this purpose, except when It U exactly
opposlto a corresponding opening In
the entrance, and no two cells on the
same tier or story may be entered at
the same time. Outside the cylinder
of cells, biy entirely disconnected with
it. Is the *w!re cage, and this looks
somewhat like a gigantic stationary
squirrel cage wheel set on end. It Is
made of thick steel bars, chilled to a
hardness fully equal to tliat of the
cylinder, but separated from the cyl
inder and cells just enough to be out
of reach, even should a prisoner get
possession of tools for cutting his way
out. Connecting with it are the cage
llke entrance galleries, one for each
tier, each containing u double set of
| floors. When the prisoners are to be
j taken out for exercise, or to enter
upon thetr duties in the shops, they
| ;„ust pans out singly, the cage being
i ,-evolved Just far enough, as each
i .oaves his cell, to bring the opening
j .f the next cell Into line with the en
| tranee cage, and they must enter In
! similar fashion. When the Inst pris

< burrli In Oregon.
After careful consideration the Cen
tenary Methodist church of Portland,
Ore., has decided upon a novel plan for
raising funds necessary In conducting
the affairs of the congregation. It was
suggested by the pastor, Rev. J. J. Wa
ters, who has determined to run his
church as it democracy, giving every
body opportunity and Inducement to
contribute. At a meeting of Influen
tial members he explained his plan. He
showed a large roster with all the
members of (he church on It. Opposite
each name are fifty-two spaces for
credit murks. The roster Is placed In
the vestibule of the church, where It
remains,-and Is In pluln view of every
one entering the church. At the close
of every month the roster is taken
down and all who have contributed
anything to the current expenses of
the chureh are cheeked up in the
spaces opposite the names. The amount
paid is not given, hut the cheek Indi
cates that something, however small,
has been paid toward the support of
the church. The contributions come
Into the hands of the club by means of >
envelopes, and the amount and name
are obtained In this way. The roster
will j;how Just who has paid anything
and who has not. It Is claimed for
the system that the delinquents get
tired after a while seeing the row of
blanks after names and begin to pay
something In order to fill up the blank
spaces. It Is a sort of ever-present
dunning hoard. It looks down with
significant silence on every member
who enters the church door. The de
linquent. cannot escape Its all-seeing
eye. Whether present or absent, he
knows It is there, and the blank spaces
seem constantly to say "Pay some
thing.’’ The meeting adopted th<
plan unanimously.
A NEW RAPID-FIRE PISTOL.
The new Mannlicher rapid-fire pistol
has recently been brought to this coun
try for the purpose of exhibiting it to
the authorities ut Washington and
seeking to have It adopted for use In
the United States army. As the name
of the new weapon Implies It Is not a
revolver, but it can discharge live car
tridges in rapid succession, five car
tridges being tin ordinary load, and it
can bo reloaded with that number or
cartridges in much less time than it
takes to load a revolver. As the empty
shell is thrown out every time a car
tridge Is fired the weapon Is ready to
be reloaded as soon as the last of the
five is discharged. The chief impor
tance of the weapon, however, rests In
the fact that It uses the smokeless
powder cartridges, which would blow
an ordinary revolver to pieces, and it
thus becomes a most formidable weap
on for army use. Its action is much
like that of the Mannlicher rifle, which
is well known to military men. The
bullets fired from It have so much ini
tial velocity that at a distance of twen
ty feet from the pistol they go through
twenty-eight sheets of Iron, each 1
1,OOOths of an inch thick.
The weapon is loaded by bringing to»
