Talking Man of Samoa.
From the Boston Transcript.
Samoa’s talking-man, or “tolafali,” is a
character. All the affairs of state of the
Tillage In which he holds office are car
ried upon his shoulders. In ordinary he Is
the chief adviser, persuader, convincer and
restriner of the leading chiefs. Having the
*lft of eloquence, he makes the mo?t of It.
He enjoys Immunity from many thing..
B* cannot be spoken of In ordinary terms.
If It should lie necessary to speak of his
eyes or his mouth or his limbs, special
honorable words must Tie used—words
which attach to him alone and have never
been applied to the personal parts of or
dinary men.
As he stands to deliver his soft, persua
sive, mellifluous oratory, with staff of of
fice In his hand, and his fly-duster thrown
over his shoulder, any one can see that
be is a man of great importance, or. If
this Is not apparent from his attitude, it
may be gathered from the attention paid
to his utterances by gray-haired chiefs
and by youths and maidens.
If the talking man is a clever fellow and
understands his business, he Is the chief
ruling tower In his tribe, although the
nominal headship is always vested in a
chief or patriarchal figurehead.
Reflections of n llueliclor.
From the New York Sun.
The trouble about living a thing down
ts that It generally me;uns living yourself
UP-
When a man gets ready to let a woman
have her way, he has got ready to get out
of It.
When a man Is getting married In a
church he feels about the same as If he was
being stuffed ami put in a glass case.
When a woman meets another woman in
the street ear and Insists on paying the
fare for both of them, she will always hate
her If she lets her.
Every woman loses some respect for h r
husband when she discovers that he
doesn’t know any more than she does
übout keeping the water pipes from free
ing up.

TUB CALIFORNIA SARD IVES.
lloiv They Are Caught by the Ton
nxul Drought in for the Canneries.
From the New York Times.
San Pedro, Cal., Oct. 28.—With charac
teristic cordiality the captain of the sar
dine boat ushers aboard his craft the
stranger who wants to study the details
of so Interesting an industry as sardine
fishing und canning, which Is extensively
carried on along the California coast.
“Tumble aboard. Look out, that’s the
salt bag; and mini that jug—that’t the
dago red. Take a seat aft,” said a master
of one of these long, low launches fitted
with a power engine and devoted to the
extermination of California sardine.
Tlie vessel was lying at a wharf in the
long, narrow harbor of San Pedro near a
building erected on plies which bore a
sign ihat told the world that sardines were
canned there, not to speuk of lobsters
(crawfish) and mackerel; and that there
wae no admission except on business. The
boat had just landed a cargo of sardines,
und a luige number of girls and women
were at work on the inside cutting off
heads and bringing the fish down to the
right else for canning.
“All ready. Cast oft the stern line!”
One boll, ami the throbbing engine begins
to pump; a moment later the jingle bell
sounds and the trim boat runs rapidly out
of the harbor. The crew is made up of
half a dozen herculean fellows—Swedes
and Americans. Alongside the launch,
held In place by two looms, Is n long
whaleboat, a double-ender, that holds the
big net, while a dory fowl'd astern car
ries another.

exterminating factor of the Southern Cal
ifornian waters, and she has taken tons
of fish to the cannery this year. No mercy
is shown, and no consideration of the peo
ple of the future. The spawning fish are
taken by the ten-ton load, and hundreds of
tons of fish are caught, the supply being
decimated so rapidly that it will soon be
the story of the moss bunker over again—
almost total extinction.
The boat soon cleared the harbor and
headed due south for Ava'on bay, which
was reached in about three hours—a fa
mous spot for sardines. As the launch
rounded to at the anchorage a big Swede
jumped into a small boat and pushed off
<o row around Ihe little bay and locate
the sardines. It took him exactly ten
minutes to accomplish this, and he held
hts boat over the spot until the large net
boat was manned and had reached him.
The men all wore rubber boots, so that the
net would not be cut. and thick woven
gloves. When the Ixtat was near the
school the net was dropped over under
the direction of the finder, the net boat
then being rowed In a circle perhaps 150
feet In diameter. AVhen this was accom
plished ihe men on board lay on to the
purse hul lard, which was hauled In. clos
ing the net below, so that from live to ten
tons of fish wore caught in a tubular net,
the top portion floating on the surface,
the bottom closed. The men now took
hold of the net itself, and with their pro
tective gloves hauled up the heavy meshes.
It took perhaps In this Instance nearly
half an hour to get the net to the surface.
When this was accomplished a line was
passed to tho large ls>at and she was
hauled Biongslde. A boom was n>w rigged
on to the mast and tho deck of the smack
separated by board partitions. The sailer
hauled out his barrel and slood by; two
men took the halliard, while another fas
tened to It a long-handled scoop net that
held several bushels. All was ready: the
net. like a huge liottlo, was at the surface,
and the myriads of sardines, a silvery
mass, were struggling be'ow, while a
cloud of silvery scales fil ed the water anil
went drifting away, attracting sehoils of
yellow tails, sea bass, seals and sea lions.
Tho Captain grnfi>od the end of the
scoop net, a second hauled down the tack
le. and plunged It Into the squirming
throng; the tackle men hoisted away, hand
over hitnd, and the young man who direct
ed the scoop steered it to a particular pe
tition and dumped It—a glittering, gleam
ing stream. The salter now came to tho
front, Itnil threw salt by ftc handful uton
the paltering heap. Down went the scoop,
and up it came again, and so the work
went on. the air filled with flying scales,
until in a remarkably short time the deck
partitions were filled chock a block with
Central of Georgia Railway.

sardines, representing In weight several
tons, aid generally of large size, five or six
inches in length. Frequently the launch
cannot carry all that is caught, and the
remainder is released; but several tons
constitute a load.
The anchor was now hauled up, and un
der steam nnd salt the fishing boat headed
for San I’edro, where the fish were handed
over to the cannery. Hero the sardines are
first washed, then going to gangs of
workers who cut off the heads and tails,
cutting them down to the length requlr;d—
three and a half or four Inches. They are
then laid on racks and lowered en masse
Into caldrons of boiling oil (Callfornli
olive), where they remain a short time
and are then lifted out, and are ready to
pack In ltoxcs.
The fishing industry Is Increasing all
along the Pacific coast. Monterey bay is
soon to have a cannery, this being a fa
mous place for anchovies, and an abalone
establishment, it Is said, is also to be
started. The abulone (hallotis) has a de
cided commercial value. The shell is made
into buttons and Jewelry, while the meat
is a savory article of diet.
"Don't you sometimes catch things you
are not after?” asked the passenger on the
sardine boat of one of the crew.
"You’re right,” was the reply. "Some

and keeps us all day mending It. The
shark is the worst, as It rolls over and
over and tears the net in every way. The
big fish known as the tuna here goes

SIGHT IN SOUTH AMERICA.
Bible* Which Have Been In Use for
Seventy-three Years.
From the Chicago Record.
Mr. A. M. Milne, who has been for thir
ty-seven years In charge of the Ameri
can Bible Society In South America, says
that up to the close of IS9S he had distrib
uted through his agents 501,619 copies of
the Scriptures, and had received $92,887
United States gold as proceeds of the sales.
The prices charged are merely nominal.
Last year he sold 29,925 Bibles for $4,945.88.
Thirty-three agents were employed, who
traveled 21,939 miles.
The work of the Bible Society In South
America first began In 1826, when Dr.
Bingham and Isaac Watts Wheelrlght, a
brother of William Wheelrlght, who built
the first railway in South America and
established steamship communication on
the west coast, made a Journey overland
from Buenos Ayres to the City of Mexico
and distributed copies of the Bible In near
ly every town. These Bibles are frequent
ly found by the traveling coUtorteurs now
adays, and appear to have been well read.
In the markets and at the shops in this
country it Is the habit of customers to de
mand what they eall a "yappa”—a pres
ent, a little something “to boot.” If you
buy a parcel of vegetables from a market
woman she must throw In a potato, an
onion or an orange; If you buy a dress
at a dry goods store you expect a pl<*<*
of ribbon or a paper of pins. The buyef
is not allowed to make the selection; tl)4
seller reserves that privilege.
The ancient bridges found In this couiw
try are exceedingly simple in constru>
tlon, but are well adapted for crossing th
rapid streams that rush down from th
Andes and defy the skill of the modern
engineer. They consist of strong cable*
of the cabuya, a native vine, or of a twist
ed rawhide stretched from one bank la
the other, something after the stj’le of tha
suspension bridges of our times. Foies
were lashed transversely, covered with
palm leaves, reeds, split bamboo branches,
and these were again covered with earth
arid stones so as to form a solid floor.
Other cables extended along the sides,
which were Interwoven with similar ma
terlal or the limbs of trees, forming a
kind of wicker balustrade. In some case*
the mode of transit was a basket or cat
suspended on a single cable and drawn
from side to side with ropes. One would
think that bridges of this description
would not he very enduring, yet those ex
ist which are said to have been construct
ed by the Incas more than 400 years ago.
—lt is announced In Paris that Gen. US
Galllffet has been uppreached several time*
by representatives of the old general aloft
to give some evidence of his faith in tha
officers composing It. This has finall)!
drawn from the minister of war a semi'’
official statement, in which it Is declared
that he h*s never had any intention ol
giving a command to Gen. de Bolsdeffrc.
or Gen. de Negrler. The minister of wit
considers that there are no reasons lot
modifying, for the moment at least, the
measures taken a gain at these officers soma
time ago, when they were relieved of <h9
duties they were then exercising. Thrtfl
officers quartered at Chateauroux are to
be removed to other garrisons by a Ueels*
ion of the minister of war.
