18 TILE SUNDAY ENTER OCEAN, 9, 189. THE COUNTY OF CORK. Corkoniana Who Have Made Their Mark in Chicago, THE BANKS OF THE LEE. Old Homes of the Egafis, Walshes, Roches, and Barrys. Stories of Families That Came from County Cork to Chicago How They Have Succeeded.

The articles which lately appeared In Thb Isteb Ocxur relative to prominent Mayo men and Limerick men in Chicago jiiave impelled some Cork men to consider I that their county was also entitled to "honorable mention." Their consideration is bnt Just and well founded. Cork-lonlans hare done and are doing- a great ideal for the Improvement of this city. They jown banks, blocks, and newspapers; they build churches and they preach In them, plead law eases and try law eases, address 'labor meetings and suppress riots, and otherwise prove their worth and usefulness to the commnnity. Still they know bnt little about one another. There Is a most noticeable lack of clannlshness.

Every Cork man aeems to atand sturdily upon his own individuality. COUNTY 'Mksii' toZL -t aa-Htsf Celery' Crhy x-w4- i Hnbf. afflJ PTjf The eounty bond of brotherhood Is practically unknown. Probably It is because their eounty is so large the largest in Ireland, containing over 1,700,000 acres that the Ban try people almost regard the Mitchellstown people as foreigners, and Mallow holds nothing in common with Skib-bereen. Any Chicago "Corker" can hardly name six others in this city who were born within sound of Shandon bells.

Nevertheless, they are here in though individually they don't seem to know It. Their native corner of the world is a very pleasant and interesting one. 1 The Lee is one of the most delightful streams and Cork was Ion; since called the "beautiful The Start. The city got its start from a County Mayo saint named Lochran, surnamed Barr, or the lipht-haired, who founded a monastery near tho co reach or marsh, which gave the place its name (corcach shortened to Cork). A celebrated university grew up, frequented by students from all over Europe.

By and by the plundering Danes, Or Norsemen, came along, ruined the monastery and university, and built themselves a fort in what is now the lower part of the elty. From these Dines several Cork families are descended the Terrys, Skiddys, Goulds, Gall ways, Cop pincers, etc. -There is anlrish saying that-Danish descent is shown by light red hair. Editor MeAuliffe, of the Nnin0 Pust, is a descendant of these Cork Danes; the red hair, shows up now and then in bis articles. Another Irish Dane is Colonel Monstery, the swordsman and man of many duels.

When the Normans came over for con-' qnest both Irish and Danes united against them, but in vain. The Fltzgeralds, Barrys, Roches, Burkes, and Walshes were too well armed and disciplined for the McCarthys and McAuliffes. King McCarthy got down on his "marrow bones" to the King of England a position from which hi descendants were never afterward fully able to recover themselves and a dash of strong Norman blood was injected into the population. Cork in course of time got a charter, also a city seal showing two castles with a ship sailing between them. It temporarily lost its charter for having taken np the cause of the impostor, Perkin Warbeck, a young Fleming who set himself np as Richard IV.

of England, and the mayor of Cork lost his head, first figuratively, then literally; it was set on a spike on London bridge. Historical Celebrities. Several historical celebrities were more or less identified with county events. Coming over to share in the plunder of Irish lands, Sir Walter Baleigh resided atTivolL planted cherries at Affane, and potatoes at Voughal, where his alarmed servant maid drenched him with a bucket of water as he sat Duffing the first fumes of tobacco into the Irish air; she thought her master was afire. The Elizabethan poet, Edmond Spencer, was sheriff of Cork, and lived there with his wife, a pretty country girl from Mallow.

He built a fine eastle at Kil cole man, but the native Irish, whose lands he got, bnrnt him out, and the author of "The Faery Queen" died in London of hunger. Prince a pert came here to seek support for King Charles; Admiral Blake blockaded the place for the Parliament subsequently Oliver Cromwell marched in i with bis grim James IL stayed here a few weeks before he ran away; Churchill, afterward the martial and miserly Duke of Marlborough, captured the place for King William the Irish troops embarked to enter the French service, among them MacCarthv. Lord Mount- cashel, who made prisoner the Count de La Salle, ancestor of the celebrated French ex plorer, who gives name to La Salle street in this city. Cork Is a bright and bustling city, bnt it owes its world-wide fame chiefly to the tintinnabulation of the bells that swinj on Sunday and Wednesday afternoons in the son a re parti-colored tower of Shandon -Church, and the bells in -turn owe their fame to tbe genius of Father Frank Ma-hony, a brilliant Cork priest of high literary ability, who took off his Roman collar, grew a beard, and proceeded to write Jnvenalian poetry under tbe nom de plume of "Father Prout" His sweetest poem, familiar the world over, celebrates the music oi: "The bells of Shandon That sound so grand on The pleasant waters ot tae riyer Lee." Cork nd QttMutowsv From Cork, about half a century ago, a grand temperance movement rolled like a wave of clear cold water over Ireland. The bead of this movement was Father Theo-bald Mathew; his statue now stands in toe leading thoroughfare and surveys with jj N-C-r )8Tr, av i yf gentle sarcastic amile a street vista which embraces soma flourishing saloons, or public houses," as they are called over there.

The port of the city Is the celebrated Cove of Cork, or Queenstown, whoso pavements are worn by the departing feet of millions of Irish emigrants. From this neighborhood came General Fat Cle bourne, tho celebrated Confederate officer. From other parts of the country eame numerous Federal officers who crossed swords with him. From Cork elty hails Joseph K. CL Forrest, one of the oldest citizens and oldest newspaper mekof Chicago.

For over half a century he hak been collecting and publishing- news or 'commenting thereon. He Is a walking encyclopedia of what may be called the arehasologv of Chicago, and la a great, gossipy, and entertaining "old timer." Bis is an old Cork family. Early in the seventeenth century, when "Black Tom" Wentworth was robbing the Irish of their title deeds, an ancestor of Mr. Forrest's was mayor of YoughaL Among Mr. Forrest's schoolmates in Cork were several who afterward achieved celebrity or notoriety, including Sir John Pope Hen-nessy and the renegade Michael Joseph Barry, who hrat wrote Irish revolutionary songs and then as magistrate sent men to Jail for singing them.

Forrest senior re-aided outside the city and had a flouring-mill at Elverstown. Tao Fuet Is. His two sons, Joe and Thomas, eame to Chicago in 140. In 1843 Joe started a paper call the of the Prairie; next year went writing editorials for the Journal; la 1847 helped to found the Tribune, and gave that paper its name; went over to the Democrat in 1S48, and stayed with "Long John" Wentworth till he closed up his paper, in 1861; was correspondent of the Tritntnt at Springfield and at Washington, and also of the Jfimouri Democrat; then worked on the Republican under. Dana; next became man- PwrttB Cr 1 frit mi -'r Clark ZIMt COUNTY CORK.

aging editor of Tn Ixtib Ocsax, and has ever since been connected with the Daffy Xewt. Though warmly attached to the past.Colonel Forrest keeps well np with tbe procession of the present. In politics he believes the country has gone to the dogs, and that we are on the eve of something desperate. His brother, Thomas L. Forrest, engaged in commercial life, acted as bookkeeper in various firms -in early Chicago, finally started the Hide and Leather Bank, and prospered.

Corkonlans are great on the banking business. A shrewd financial strain runs through most of them they are past grand masters in tbe art of handling the almighty dollar. In Chicago, in '67, John V. Clarke, of Cork city, started the Hibernian Bank, an institution which has come with flying colors through various business crises, es-nMiallv thn trvinr nanic of last rear. Mr.

Clarke died Aug. tt, 1S93, leaving behind him a stainless and successful business record. Three sons and three daughters survive him. His eldest son, John V. Clarke the second, is president of the Hi bernian Banking Association.

Une of his daughters is wife of ex-Mayor Hempstead Wasuournc. The Kgans. Several of Chicago's finest buildings are from the plans of a genial Cork man. Architect James J. Egan, born on Union Quay, by toe pleasant waters of the River Lee.

Eda-cated for a civil engineer, be studied in the Queen's University in. the department of arts and engineering, and held a science scholarship. On the death of his father, who was an eminent builder, he took charge of his business for a few years, and then commenced the study of architecture; eame to New York in July, '66, and worked under the well-known architect, Itaao F. Duckworth; eame to Chicago in TO, and started in business for himself. In Chicago and the surrounding district Mr.

Egan has erected some 800 buildings. He was the original designer of the present county buildings and City Hall, though unfortunately the contract was not carried out according to his plans. The old County Jail and Criminal Court, the latter of which is now giving place to a much larger structure, were designed by him. So were St. John's, St.

Jarlath's, and St. Elizabeth's churches, the De La Salle Institute, tbe fine Chicago Industrial School, on the South Side, tbe beautiful private dwellings of Charles D. Trego, Lake avenue; O. S. Lyford, Lake Park avenue; Charles Neteher, Drexel boulevard, and several other noted buildings also- the magnificent cathedral of San Francisco and the cathedrals of Davenport and Dubuque.

Rev. Doniiulck Egan, brother of the foregoing and a scholarly, unostentatious gentleman, is pastor of St. Stephen' Church, Sangamon and Ohio streets. Another brother. William, a distinguished sculptor, died in Melbourne a com-' pie of years ago- Glanmlre.

Four miles outside Cork, at Glanmire, where Robert Emmet once tried to combine love and war, was born the Rev. Thomas F. Cashman, of St. Jarlath's parish. On the old sod the reverend father was an intense "separatist;" it is said he was.

refused ordination three different times on account of his inflexible political principles. He was educated in the eity ef Cork and at tbe seminary attached to the celebrated Trappist monastery of Mount Mellersy; came to Chicago in 1803, and finished his theological studies in the college of St. Mary's of the Lake, since burned was ordained and appointed to the charge of Fekln. south of Peoria and now of Peoria diocese, and was appointed parish priest of St Jarlath's Church, Chicago, in 1873. St Jarlath's, called after the first Bishop of Turn, in Ireland, was then but a poor frame school; now a handsome edifloe on Jackson boulevard, it resounds every Sunday with sacred hymns, wedded to tbe finis Irish airs to which Moore wrote his immortal melodies.

A fine convent and priest's bouse have also been built Outside St Jarlath's one Sunday morning, a few years ago. Father Cashman inadvertently had another Cork man, tbe poet, Eugene Davis, arrested for distributing Parnellite "dodgers," and the contretemps set people languing; it was a special instance of the non-intercourse and lack of clannlshness among Corkonlans. From Aghada, on the noble Cove, comes Ed Lahiffe, vice president of the Chicago Newspaper an able and enterprising news gatherer, and the only reporter in America who succeeded in getting inside tbe barricade at Homestead, he -accomplished in the guise of a riveter's helper. In the recent unpleasantness there were numerous "Corkers" arrayed oa both sides. James J.

iinehan, the well known labor leader and agitator, is from Cork. Sojs Jeremiah J. Crowley, of the secret service, chief of Uncle Sam's corps of de teotive. Police Captain Frank CT N'elU-who was ht the middle- of the reeeat "rue, tions" in his district, at Loom Is and Forty-Seventh streets, halls all -the. way from Bantry.

Blarney Castle, A few miles outside the eity Is the celebrated Blarney Castle, made familiar in Chicago by its counterpart at the World's Fair. It is a fine old feudal ruin, a gem of antiquity set in a most romantle landscape, the whole calculated to inspire the genius of a Scott or a Dumas. Instead, however, the poor castle, on account of its "kissing is the laughlaostook of the world, dear to the doggerel bard and the dime museum wit. Moore adorned Avoea Prout and Milllken denied Blarney and made it forever ridiculous. Yet a visit to it is one of the most pleasant excursions la the world if one could only forget the eternal and nauseating "poetry." Blarney Is one of the lost homes of McCarthys, ones lords of this entire Southern district, a brave and dignified race.

In Chicago their bravery is represented by D. F. McCarthy, a well-known North Side dry-goods man, who sailed in the Catalpa to rescue the Fenian prisoners from Australia; and their dignity bv the potent and pom pari on red "Black Cap" McCarthy, superintendent of streets. There are several columns of McCarthy's in tho Chicago directory. A well-known veteran settler, Owen McCarthy, hails from Ballineollig, an important military station.

Due west from Cork is the town of Ma-croon, whose eastle was once the residence of Admiral William Penn, father of the celebrated colonist ef Pennsylvania. Young William Penn, who became a member of the Society of Friends at the instance of his college mate, Thomas Lee, of Cork eity, left a kindly memory behind him in Cork by giving his tenants long leasee at moderate rents. The Quakers were persecuted by the Episcopalians, and William Penn spent a month in Cork Jail TlPPtRARY Coo Ki-' Cmm I AUrsm T' AK CORK MteUUtm Ctttir -T LmkJlk Dmrrn Then, refusing to take off his hat to the King, be was turned out of doors by bis father the Admiral, and eame to America to vainly seek toleration for the members of his gentle religious persuasion, of which ne Decs me tne most illustrious leader. -TM Walshes.

In one of the valleys lies the lone and lovely lake and island of Gougane Barra: There Is a green Island la lose Gougane Barra, Where Alius ofaong rushes forth as aa arrow: In deep-valleyed Desmond a thousand wild fountains Come down to that lake from their home In the mountains.

Ex-Justice David Walsh was born in London of Uougane-Barra parents. He was keeper of tho first Chicago Bridewell, established in 1W1 at Polk street and Fifth avenue, was afterward elected alderman of the Seventh Ward, waa a member of tho Board of Edueation for seven years, and held the office of Justice of the peace in Chicago from 1871 to 1884, with an interval of four years. Mr. Walsh is a bale octogenarian, has lived to dandle his greatgrandchildren on bis knees, and is bright and entertaining in discourse, lie nas sev eral children, the best known of whom are Lawyer Thomas J. Walsh and Dave alsh, of the Douglas Park Pavilion.

From this neighborhood came General Thomas W. 8weeney, who fought in the "lata unpleasantness," and who was selected to lead the Fenian army of in vasion into Canada. Cork eity, by tbe way, is known as "rebel Cork" from its oft-manifested opposition to tbe English gov ernment; tbe eounty has been also pro ductive in revolutionists, xnere is colonel Richard O'Sullivan Burke, now an encineer in Chicago. Having served with distinction in the eivil war he went to Ireland as Fenian organizer, outwitted police and detectives for a considerable time, but was at length captured, upon which an attempt was made to rescue turn resulting in blowing out the side of Clerk- en well prison, in London, xnere was tne daring little "Cantain Mackev."
