A lively experience with * twelvefoot striped shark came to Boatmen Harry Johnson ana kod ?arnaru. relates the San Francisco Chronicle. Tney were fishing between Miswion Rock and Goal Island when they saw Jkhe shark. It followed them persistently, and once when it came boldly up to the boat the boatmen set upon it with oars, stretcher and gaff. A blow from the bi? brute's tall came near capsizing the Whitehall. Barnard barely escaped being drawn into the *ea through sinking the gaff into the body of the shark, which set off at a terrible speed, pulling the boat after him. It was so weak from the blows and from loss of blood that it was finally conquered. In the fight the boatmen broke one oar and a stretcher. Business failures in Great Britain duri:ig 1899 were 8,boo, against 8,895 in 1898. MY BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY W?k Wom?n Mulf Ilappv by Ljdia K.
