. . !
Everybody admits that prevarication, ,
to pul it mildly, is a never absent factor
ina bore trade. Hilt I her" is a limit to
sharp play there. A certain combination ,
of individuals, that might very appropri- |
iitely be cal ed “a c»o;," are operating (
j ll nt now very tam ■ -sfully on the ofht r i
side of the limit, Mid genii men who (
think that mankind is naturally [irone to ,
be how st are being seriously n(Te< ted by ,
it every dny. j
The victims are generally mru who }
wvar aoft felt hnls. Abu of that kind
are not indigenous to Manhattan Island. (
They are the noble sons of agriculture,
who arc the mainstay of the blithesome |
bunco man. They come to the city to ]
buy h' Ik, «, and they go home firmly eon- |
vineed that there is nothing between tho
Battery and Harlem River that will ever (
get into heaven.
The "gang" have stable* in two streets.
At one it is always announced that seven ,
horses are for sale, while at tli<; other the
number is nine, Perhaps these numb' ra
lire chosen beeauso they are considered
lucky not because they represent the
number of huises, as each stable can
boast of but one animal, and that of such
a kind that in a good fair count it would
be net. down as only half a horse.
When tho unsuspecting purchaser ap
p ars at the stable ho is promptly "spot
te I.” and half a dozen gentlemen, who
have previously been lounging nrourid
the corner with their hands in their
pockets suddenly become very deeply in
tcrested in the prospective purchase of
the one horse. Nobody pays the least at
tention to the real purchaser at first. lie
think business must be very brisk indeed
and bis chances of getting a horse at
what lie begins to believe must be a bar
gain ipiif eas slim. Finally lie edges into
the conversation and becomes the central
figure.
"Where nre the other horses?" ho asks.
‘‘.Just wild four this morning, and the
rest are out on trial. A gentleman is
coming around to try this one in an hour,
if in- is not sold before,” replied the
dealer.
"All right; let mo take him out on
trial?”
"I am sorry, but I can’t. I promised
to hold him for that other follow unless
some one bought outright.”
At this point the decoys evince further
signs of purchasing, and the result is that
the victim makes an offer. After a little
haggling the price usually settled on is in
the vicinity of ft 00, Tho money is paid
and the countryman drives oIT, happy in
the consciousness of having a good bar
gain. When about two blocks distant
his joy wills down to several degress be
low freezing point. The horse begins to
wheeze and cough, and finally chokes and
falls down. Then (he sad faced farmer
leads the horse back to tho stable and de
mands his money. At first lie gets no
satisfaction whatever. The dealer insists
that the horse was all right when he left
and he can’t understand it. At last a
compromise is inndo nml tho victim
thinks himself lucky in getting SAO of liis
money back.
"I tell you what,” said ono of the de
coy to a Herald reporter, “that old horse
is a dandy. He’s got that choking rack
et down to a tine point, mul plays it ele
gant."
"lias ho been sold many times?” asked
the rcjKirtor.
"Many times? Well, I should cough
up a cat. Every day, sure, and some
times twice. Oh, you can gamble on his
knowing his business-now. Funny, now,
ain’t it! That horse, ns a horse, ain’t
worth two cents; but as a piece of prop
erty, I’m a gilly if lie don’t bring the old
man in if AO a dav, easy. Yes, sir; he
don’t look it, but lie’s one of the most
valuable animals in New York."
At both plaees the same mm/ns operan
di is pursued and with the same profita
ble results to tho’dealers. They have now
been carrying on the fraud for some months
and as yet have not met with any serious
setback. The average man does not like
to admit that lie lias been “played,” and
prefeis to pocket his loss and keep quiet
rather than air the affair in court. A
few victims, more brave than the rest,
have caused the heavy hand of the law
to drop on the dealers. Tho heavy hand
clutched savagely enough for a while,
and then, after the usual manner, let go
and the dealers serenely went back to
their busini <s and their faithful old trick
horse. AY«- )>■ t l/< ■?.
Making Money.
‘‘Hello, Frank! Where have you
boou? I haven’t seen you for a great
while?"
"I have been in Sm Francisco.”
"Making any money down there?"
"You bet. I make more money in a
day than you do in a year.”
"Great Scott! You are foolin, aiu’t
you?"
"No. I’m telling the truth."
"Where do you work?"
"In tin San Francisco mint."— Pirir.

"Lieutenant Jones having occasion ttJ
visit the Merrimae’* in deck, saw- a di
vision at ease, and inquiring
of the officer in command why lie wai
not firing that individual replied: ‘Aftct
firing for two hours I find I can do the
rn< my about as much damage by snap

"As Lieutenant Jones found ho could
make ee Impression on the Monitor with
Ids shot 4, he determined to run her down
or board her, and for nearly an hour he
ninneuvred for position, but his ship v. I
too unwieldy for that kind of work.
The Monitor danced around lier like s
yatch around a three-decker, pouring in
her shot and endeavoring to find a vul
nerable point.
"At last Jones thought he saw a
chance of ramming the Monitor, and lie
gave the order to go ahead at full speed,
hut before the great vessel could gather
headway the agile Monitor turned, and
the disabled prow of the Mcrrimac gave a
glancing blow which did no harm what
ever.
“Again the Monitor came upon the
Merrimac’s quarter, her bow actually
against the ship’s side, and at this dis
tance fired twice. Both shots struck
about half way up the Merrimnc’s armor,
abreast of tho after pivot, and so severe
was the blow that the side was forced in
several inches. The crew of the after
guns were knocked over by the concus
sion, bleeding from the nose and ears.
* « * * *
"Thousands of spectators with beating
hearts watched the conflict from Fort
Monroe, and from the ships. It sccmid
to them as if flu- battle would never end,
but at length the confederate commander,
thinking it useless to try his hr mdsides
on the Monitor any longer, steered off
toward the Minnesota, which opened on
Hie Mcrrimac with all her broadside,
guns and tho ten-inch pivot.” —Admiral
Porter.
Shark Fishing.
Shark fishing is carried onto aconsid- I
eruble extent especially on the north and .
west rousts of Iceland, both decked vessels
and open boats being used in this fishery.
Tim species of shark caught is the
Syualus car char ins, and it is pursued
solely for the sake of flic oil yielded by
the liver, the rest of the cureiis being
usually thrown away, though sonu times
the flesh is preserved for food. The
sharks vary much in size, running up to 1
eighteen or twenty feet in length, and
four to five feet in diameter through the
thickest part of the body, the yipld of oil
from each liver varying from four or five
up to fifty gallons. Itich livers yield
two thirds of their bulk of oil, poor ones
only about one-half.
'Flic vessels used in shark fishing are
for the most part small schooners of thir
ty to fifty tons burden, manned by eight
or ten men. The usual fishing season is
from January or February till August.
During she winter mouths tlie sharks
frequent shallower waters, and are found
about twenty miles from land, in fifty
fathoms of water or thereabouts; in sum
mer they seek deeper waters, and nro
caught one hundred miles or so off tho
const in a depth of two hundred fathoms.
It having boon ascertained by sounding
that the ship lies in water of a suitable
depth, preferable with a sloping soft mud
bottom, the ves el is anchored, and fishing
commences. The hook used is twelve or
eighteen inches long, baited with seal
blubber ami horseflesh nml attached by a
couple of yards of strong chain to an
inch and a half line. As a rule tho
sharks are shy of taking tho bait nt first,
and tho fishers may wait long for their
first hi to; hut onco tho sharks commence
to "take," they crowd to the spot, and
may he hooked in quick succession; they
then take the bait greedily and with lit
tle caution.
It Cared Him.
Some years ago a certain Methodist
congregation in Chicago was presided
over by a minister who had formerly
held a pastorate in Springfield, 111. Tho
preacher was a very good man, but he
subjected himself to severe criticism by
constantly comparing his surroundings
with those in Springfield. Nothing was
so nice as it was in Springfield; the
church was tine, but not so fine as the
Springfield church; the congregation
was zealous, but it was not Springfield
zeal and so on, all the time, Springfield
being perfected (lerfeotiou. At last one
of the sisters hit upon what she thought
might prove a remedy for her pastor, so
( at the next "class” she gave in her ex
periences. "I have,” said she, "found
the jiath dark and rough, and at times
have boou on the point of failing by the
wayside ami giving up in despair; 1 have
felt that mv earthly nature was uncon
-1
genial with that heavenly one I hare
boon taught to sock in the closest associa
tion, and there have been seasons when I
thought I should never N* able to reach
that better land lying beyond the Jor
-1 *
dan; but brethren and sisters, since our
dear new pastor has come among us, I
find to rejoice that although I may fall
short of attaining the heavenly kingdom,
bless the Lord, 1 shall at least reach
Springfield."
The minister tells the story on himself
and acknowledges that it cured him.—

How They are Compiled in
the Washington UtArdauv
A Work, Only Half Done, Whioh will
Take Eighty Odd Volumes-.
Tr. Washington, on G street, at the
corner of Twentieth, is an old mansion
which, forty years ago, was one of the
most aristocratic dwellings in the capital.
It is of peculiar architecture. its square,
plastered, brick walls, small windows
nml turret-shaped roof give it somewhat
the appearance of a mediaeval castle-. On
its front is a smalt gilt sign, considerably
dimmed by the action of frosts and rain,
which reads: “War Record* Office.”
The whole building is occupied by
Colonel Robert N. Scott and his corps of
assistants, who are engaged in tho work
of preparing the official documents con
nected with the war of the rebellion for
publication.
"Do you publish everything in tho
way of records connected with the War?”
was asked of Colonel Kcott the other day.
"My no means. If we did that we
could almost say in the words of the
evangelist, ‘the world itself would not
contain tho books.’ At any rate, it
would liot be exaggeration to say that it
would take thousands of volumes to con
tain everything. We expect to print
about 80,000 page-. That will take
eighty volumes or thereabouts. AYc are
not half through yet. Our idea is to
publish everything that is of historical
value. The great mass, of course, is very
uninteresting. But occasionally some
thing exceedingly rich and spicy is
reached. Some things that appear of
small importance now may prove to be of
great incidental value in the future.”
"As you go through the great mass of
documents do you find many things that
are different from currently reported
statements of events?"
"Many such tilings occur all the while.
It is astonishing how treacherous one’s
memory is when applied to events that
occurred twenty-five years ago. This is
seen in the current discussions that are
going forward all the while in the peri
odicals. Men unconsciously add a little
here and subtract a little there and for
get a good deal more, and finally the
thing related bears no fort of semblance
to the real thing that happened. I some
times almost doubt n.-y own eyes and
senses and absolutely have to go and rest
my faculties to sec whether 1 really do
know what lam about or not. A good
illustration of this occurred only a few
days ago. An officer of veracity and
candor was relating the part ills regiment
took in the battle of Shiloh. AVlien ho
had finished I informed him that his reg
iment was not in the battle of Shiloh at
; all.
" ‘What! not in the battle of Shiloh?*
he ejaculated.’ ‘You don’t mean to say
that, do you?’
“ ‘I certainly do,’ I replied.
“ ‘Well, 1 should like to know your
reason for making that statement,’ said
he.
“ ‘My reason for making it is your own
dispatch written three days after the bat
tle, in which you say your regiment was
not in the battle,’ said I. And I showed
him the dispatch, lie adjusted his spec
tacles, read it over si vend times and ad
mitted his error. Ilis story was spoiled,
but history was vindicated.
“And so it goes all tl-.e while. There
is nothing like tho written record to go
by. Men forget the motives and the
feelings which actuated them a quarter of
n century ago. The jealousies and asperi
ties of that time have passed away. It
was a time when big men rubbed hard
together in the stern realities of war. It
was a time when mistakes were made and
experiments were being tried. But I
supjKise if we were to have another war
iwe would hardly do much better. AVo
would probably be obliged to make
about the same mistakes and try the
same experiments over again. It is the
way of humanity. One generation has
never yet profited much by the mistakes
of the one that has gone before it.—Phil
adelphia Timm.
Discipline.
In the long run, says President Car
penter of the Drake University, it will be
found it is early, thorough, and persis
tent discipline that tells. Now and then,
genius, aided by extraordinarily favorable
conditions, blazes forth into some kiud
of temporary success and rotoriety. But
the possessors >t such fame nre almost
certain to eventu ■ I ’settle back to their
merited place of liu •liocrity. No man
can truly be said to be great when fame
rests upon an accident or upon a single
achievement. It ts the slowly but well
built tower of work and character, reared
piece by piece, during a whole lifetime,
that forms the enduring monument of
real greatness.
She Wished It, Too.
"They tell me you've traveled, Mr
Orimsonboak,” said Miss Fussanfeather,
during a lull in the conversation the
other night.
"Yes. I’ve traveled considerable. I
.used to travel for a dry goods house. I
wish I was traveling now."
"I wish you were," innocently rejoined
the young lady, noticing that both hands
of tho clock were pointing upward.—
