Fight With a Shark. Charlie App-lebee, a well know. tihcrma~n of Saybrook, Conn., ha had. an adventure with a shark.. H id a not set for weaktish out on tio Oyster River ilats, and inte ini the da: went out in a small boat to overb:mi t. H~e found thie ;et twisting an< squirminiig around in the water, hotl ens hopelessly tatngled an I snaried to geth-r. H~e knew t hat he had a might; ine iihi of somae so rt, but did not suts pcet thait it was a sea pira'tc. He began to pull the not ever th 'd of the boat, and the big fish cam' up gnr'ietly enough until the mocmen ie and App-lebee caught sight of eac! ather Then the tish gave a dasl downwrd and seaward. A pplebee was thrown on his back it te bo'ttomn of the skillT, and when In it. ked himself up) he was going towant Lng I-land as fast as though he was 'thedt to the stern of the Defende] in a ten-knot broeze. He seized th1 :1r5 and began pulling shore ward, a zfter a hard struggle succeeded it brndu~g the shark to a stardstili. "I couldn't pull him ashore, and:] says. He again pulled the big fish netarly to the surface and made the net ecure to one of the thwarts. Then he began to prod the sbark with a boathook and inflicted several wcunds. The monster made one des. perate lunge to escape and over went 'T the skiff, throwing Applebee into the water. It was only waist-deep, and as he still had a grip on the boathook, he made a fierce assault on the shark, The fish was entangled in the net a d could not clear itself, but it made one lash of its tail that sent its assailant I head over heels. Appl4bee saw that the fish was tiring, and finally it half rolled over and the fisheran kiled it. Ue towed the monster 9shore and r he ceutry people for miles around 1: 3rove in to look. at it with open f -nouths. The shark measured within a an inch of eight feet. It was not a mancater, but of the variety known ?it the "thrasher" shark. t Ife Bears a Charmed Life. L If ever a man bore a charmed life, p Nathan Porter, of Cross Creek Town- r ship, Ohio., is that man. He has met w with a number of accidents that would c have ended the life of any ordinary g human being, but Nate seems possessed t of as many lives, *s a co t. He is just 1) now going about after having been i kicked squarely in the forehead by a i I horse. His apple orohard is on the t side of a hill,. and . he has fallen out o? f( nearly every tree on it several times, t and never was more than shaken up. e Some years ago a log rolled over him li as if he had been made of rubber. t Then he went to a pienic and ate ice cream that poisoned evey.ybody else, I but beyond a little sick spell he iever t felt any discomfort. Several years ago a his physician told him to settle up hi i I business affairs and prepare for the i b hereafter. as he iiight live two yeais] t and he might not live more than two -V . days. He came ont of the doctor ai office and shook hands with friends, t telling them of tie good news imparted 1 to him by the doctor, and adding that a r he did not believe a word the doctor n told him. He lived to see the doctor s t buried. Porter holds that he could t go through a powder mill explosion nV without even sineiliug the powder. n t The minor accidents he has met with A 1 are innumerable, and he expects to 1i die naturally. 3 -t t A Yacht Thunpel by a Whale. u John S.

As Corn VIDnder Gitlin was the first naval otli er beloning to the Nations of Euro Uan civilization to witness an engage ieut with modern vessels and guns, is account has a value entirely apart om its interest. The following is n extract from his article: The fleets closed on each other rap ilv. My crew was silent. The sub C-ntenanit in the military foretop was iAii-g sextant angles and announcing IC ringe, and exhibiting an appro rate smell signal-flag. As each mnee( was called the men at the guns ould lower the sight-bars, each gun ptain, lanvard in hand. keeping his un traincd on the enemy. Through le ventilators could be heard the eats oF the steam-pumps; for all the nes of hose were joined up and spout ig water, so that in case of fire no me need be lost. The range was about mr miles, and decreasing fast. "Six :ousand meters!" "Five thousand ilt hundred"-"lsix hundred"-five uudred"-"five hundred!" "Five ionsand four hundred !" The crisis was rapidly approaching. very man's nerves were in a state of msion, which was greatly relieved as huge cloud of white smoke, belch )g from the Ting Yuen's starboard arbette, "opened the ball." Just as ic projectile threw up a column of bite water a little short of the Yosh o, a roar from the Chen Yuen's bat ry seconded the fiag-ships' motion. was exactly 12.20 p. m. The range, found on the Chen Yuen, was 5200 ottres; on the Ting Yuen it was as imed to be 5300. On our side the ring now beeamo general from the main batteries, but it was about five iinutes before the Japanese replied. s they opened fire, the Chinese quick ring Hotchkiss and Maxim-Norden t, three and six pounders, joined i, and thence forward the conflict as almost incessant. Like ours, the iemy's first shots fell short; but with a exultant chuckle we noted that a lot from one of our 12-inch guns had :ruck one of the Japanese leading lips. The bridge of the Chen Yuen, al iough some thirty feet above the ater, was very soon soaked, as was, ideed, the entire exposed surface op 1 engaged silo, ny spray thrown up y line shots that struck the water q ttle short. Many of the men at the uns on deck were wet through, and ~ded the water was thrown on board th such violence as to sting the face ad hands like hail. Every one in the nning tower had his ears stopped ith cotton, yet the din made by pro c~ties rattling up against the outside its 10-inch armor was a serious an o vance. 1uring this early part of the en gemnt the Chinese fleet as a whole e~t their indented line, and preserved itervals fairly wvell, steaming at about x knots-the Chao Yung and Yang oi being still out of station on the treme right. The Tsi Yuen, with r faint-hearted commander, Fong, ad lted very soon after the encemy ad opened fire. At 12.45 we saw this ssel about three miles astern on our arboart quarter, heading sout hwest ward Port Arthur. She was followed v a string of Chinese anathemas from r men at the guns. She reached r Arthur at 2 a. in. next day (seven ours in advance of the fleet), spread. ig there a wild talc that we had been vrwhlmied by a vast Japanese ar ada, etc. Upon our arrival, Captain Fong .aimed that his entire battery had rj.y been disabled, and that he had ecu obliged to run to save his die ~neess ship. But upon an exammn :ion of his battery by a dletail of line ad engineer officers, it was found in 'ifect working order, excepting the x-inch sternehaser-the one project e which struck his ship having issed beneath the trunnions, lifting ie gun from its scat. But this shot rd entered from the stern, having ridently been rceive-d after the re 'eat had begun -admininistered, it ull seem, as a contemptuous part ig kick fro:n the enemy. Captain iFong's outrageous example as at once followed by the commanl er of the K wan Chia, whose courage asscacey exceedeld by his knowl ige cf n'avigation; for, about mid ight, he ran upon a reef outside of a-LienWan, which lie said was a cost unaccountable mishap, as he had id his course (in a 100 mile run) "to ear it b~y one and a half miles!" his vessel'had not been struck at all, a~t some days later was blown up by er crew upon the approach of somne ipanese vessels. Our force had thus rly been reduced to eight vessels. As the Japanese fleet approached, it eaed along our front from left to ght, at perhaps double our speed, and ich vessel could thus exchange shots ith each of ours in turn. The Japan ese rincipal Squadron kept at close; mge, upon the whole, than did the iying Squadron. The latter, upor aching our right flank, turned ii ad poured in a heavy cross-fire on extreme wing, the Chao Yung and ang Wei receiving the most of it. rm the first these two old-fashioned uisers were doomed. Two p.assage -ays in each superstructure connected e bow and stern ten-inch guns, orL 1 out~oard side of each being oli ars' quarters, etc., the partitions and~ ulkheads being of wood highly var ished and oiled. These vessels were irly set on fire, and the diraft down aese pas~sageways at once turned iem into alleys of roaring flame he machine guns nyerhead were thus mdered useless, :hie deck being un nable, and the bow and stern guns er isolated from each other and om their magazines. As a forlorn 2pe, the ill-fated vessels made for the sarest land.

The greatest care is taken by the Chinese of the pieces of ginseng of the tinest quality. M. Hue says that throughout China no chemist's shop is unprovided with nore or le;s of it. According to the account given by Lockhart (inedical missionary in China) of a visit to a ginseng mer chant, it is stored in small boxes lined with sheet leal, which are kept in larger boxes containing quicklime for absorbing moisture. The pieceE of the precious drug are further in closed in silk wrappers and kept in little silk-lined boxes. The merchant, when showing a piece bared of it: wrappings to Mr. Lockhart for his in spectioJ, requeAtLd him not tobreathe 'in or to hawlle it. while he dilated on its mirits, and related the i ir!. o nis enres he hal know it to etfhct. Tie root is covered, according te gnalitv, with the finest embroidered *ilk, yhtin cotton cloth, or paper. In China, ginseng is orten sent t( friends as a valuable pre-sent, and in such cases there is usually presented along with the drug a sinall finely finished double kettle for its prepara tion. The inner kettle is made of sil ver, and between it and the outside copper vessel is a small space for hold ing water. The silver kettle fits in s ring near the top of the outer cover ing, and is furnished with a cup-like cover, in which rice is put, with a little water. The ginseng is placed in the inner vessel, the cover put on, and the whole apparatus set on the fire. When the rice in the cover is cooked, the medicine is ready, and is eaten by the patient, who drinks the ginseng tea at the sarne time. The dose of the root is from sixty tc ninety grains. During the use of the drug, tea-drinking is prohibited for at least a nontb, without any othe change of diet. It is taken in the morning before breakfamt, and some times in the evening before going to bed. --Chanibers's Journal. Played a Trick on Vanderbilt. Brice's greatest play was building the Nickel Plate. He put in every dollar he could get, and from any source. There came a time, too,when, to save himself from utter rain, if not something worse, he had to sell. le went to Vanderbilt, whose road the Nickel Plate paraileled. Vanderbilt wouldn't buy the Nickel Plate. He saidI he could afford to wait the first ortgage foreclosure and buy it from a Sheriff. "If you don't buy it, Jay Gould will," said Brice. "Oh, no, he won't," said Vander bilt. Brice then went to Gould. He knew that he.didn't want the Nickel Plate, but he had a beautiful scheme to pro pose. He knew Vanderbilt would buj the road before he would allow Gould to get in. Here came Brice's strategy. He told Gould that if he would sil silent and not contradict, neither af rm nor deny, any newspaper aricles to the efleet that he was going to buy the Nickel Plate, and after this clam like silence had continued for a week, if he would then ride slowly over thi N ickel Plate in an observation car, Vanderbilt would buy the road, and 11 would give Gould $500,000. Gould didn't care for the $500,000, but he was a jocose speculator, and it struck him that the whole thing would be a majestic joke on Vanderbilt. The npers said that Gould was going t< Iay the Nickel Plate. Gould, wher questioned, looked wise. At the end of a week he meandered, snail-like over the Nickel Plate in the rear enc of an observation car, and had all th< air of a man who was looking at piece of property. Stories were wiree about Gould's trip fromn every w'atei tank and way station along the line, and before Gould had reached Chi cLgo Vanderbilt, in a fit of hysterics, wied B3rice that he would take the Nickel Plate. Vanderbilt took the N~ickel Plate and Brice was saved. ouisville Courier-Journal.
