a big fish that t write,
story. I saw the fish,
’dimensions by actual
it and I saw tho liver,
tho annals of Cape Cml, pub-
by the Bov. Mr. Freeman in
. he muntions that in 1803 Prov-
incetown had a regulation relating
to the carcasses of whales, sharks,
<• horse mackerel, etc., which required
that they be towed below low water
mark, which would indicate that
these marine animals were so com
mon as to be in some degree offen
sive in warm weathor. Many of
them were captured for their oil.
Right whales yielded 20, 40, 80 and
sometimes 100 barrels; humpbacks,
15 to 20 barrels; grampus, 1, 2 or 3;
blackfish, 1 barrel; sharks, from 1
gallon to 7 or 8 barrels; porpoiso, 2
gallons, and a boatload of dogfish
yielded about 1 barrel of oil.
Now my big fish was called a shark,
though he was not of the man eating
or shovel noBed variety. Mr. N. E.
Atwood, a distinguished and practi
cal ichthyologist of Provincotown,
pronounced the fish a liver shark or
sea elephant, and considered it rare.
The fish was almost entirely white,
, and as handsome in form as a mack
erel. He was caught in 1802, inside
of what is called Long Point, form
ing an outer boundary of Province-
town's beautiful harbor.
The fishermen had spread their
seines there for mackerel and this
big fish had got entangled in them,
so that he was easily pulled to tho
shore, whore tho tide left him high
and dry. Being at that time engagod
in business in Provincetowu, I was
invited to visit the monster and see
him cut up for tho purpose of extract
ing his liver. By tho way, all the oil
of a shark is in his liver, while that
of a whale, of course, is in his flesh,
or blubber. I took a rule and meas
ured this shark and found his length
to be just thirty-one feet, thebreudth
of Ins tail was seven foet, nnd his cir
cumference in the thickest part six
teen foot.
Tholivorof this shark woighodtwo
tons, and this is how it was deter
mined : The liver was cut in pieces
and pitched into a dory; the dory
carriod a ton and a half in weight be
sides the rower, as has been proved,
bringing her down to her upper
streak; the dory'was twice loaded
deep with this liver, and so the fish
ermen thought tho weight was near
ly throe tons, but to be within
bounds 1 concluded to call it two
tons, nnd so it is recordod in tills
veracious chronicle. Aftor the oil
had been tried out I found that it
made seven ban-els full, and was
worth at that time $200.—Belfust

"Contrary to popular opinion the
fcmnlo descendants of the Puritans

Cavaliers," said Mr. William Cooper,
junior member of nn extensive Now

Extent of the Gulf Wood.
Tlu> Sargasso sea, or floating mosses
of gulf weed in mid-Atlantic, which
impeded the ships of Columbus -100
years ago, lias been tho subject of
careful study by Dr. Krummel, a
German maroogrnphor, who takes a
different view of its origin from that
commonly aeceptod. He shows, to
begin with, that the sea is much
moro extensive than Humboldt sup
posed. Tlie middle or thickest part
is elliptical in form, the grent axis
lying along the Tropic of Cancer, and
the foci at 45 degs. and 70 degs. west
longitude. . Around this are more
extensive blit thinner accumulations
of the weed, which vary with the
prevailing winds.—London Globe.
How Ryei A're Tented.
The theory of the optically perfect
eye is that parallel rays of light en
tering it are brought to a focus on
its retina. Any deviation from this
condition constitutes an error of re
fraction and requires for its correc
tion an artificial variation of the
luminous rays. The generally adopt
ed method of determining the refrac
tion of the eye is to use test types
placed at such a distance that the
rays of light emanating from them
may be regarded in practloe as par
allel; and the deviation from par
allelism neoeasasy to oorrect a re
fractive error is effected byjdadng a
lens in front of the eye. There are
many other methods of thS
course of luminous mys coming from
• test object, and of these the single
convex lens is the simplest and moat

FRAUDS THROUQH THC MAILS.
Son. or the Many Sohamu That Ara
Constantly Halos Worked.
Hie frauds attempted by the use
of the mails are almost innumerable.
They consist of schemes concocted
to humbug the unsuspecting public,
and it seems the greater the fraud
the greater the returns to the swin
dler. Nearly all of these schemes
make use of advertisements pub
lished in newspapers and of circu
lars distributed through the mails.
Without these means the public could
not be reached, and for this reason
the law has been enacted prohibiting
the use of the mails for fraudulent
purposes. But it is to be borne in
mind that unless complaints are mode
to tho postoffico department these
frauds ore carriod on without any
knowledge of thoir existence and no
investigation can he hod.
To give a few instances of these
frauds. A fow years ago an adver
tisement appeared in the papors stat
ing that for tho sum of ono dollar a
recipe would be given for the per
manent cure of stammering. When
the dollar was sent the receipt was
returned, which simply read, "Keep
your mouth shut." Another in
stance of tills kind was whore an ad
vertisement recited that for fifty
cents a receipt would lie given for
catching all tho fish in any given
body of water. When tho fifty cents
was sent a receipt would bo returned
telling the victim “to dip all the wa
ter out and then pick up tho fish,”
Another form of fraud is perpe
trated by moans of advertisements
so worded os to mislead the public.
Poisons answering them think that
for twenty-five cents they are to
have a watch or some other vaiuabio
article when, in fact, they merely
get some illustrated catalogue. An
extensive fraud has boon carried on
by certain persons claiming to lio
commission merchants or produce
dealers who send out their circulars
and price lists offering prices higher
than the market, when, In fact, they
have no commission house, and pro)-
ably only desk room in shop or sa
loon, and the goods shipped to them
are received and sold at any price
obtainable, no return whatever being
mode.
Borne time since appeared a very
glowing advertisement of a book ex
clusively for young, unmarried poo
pie—both gentlomen and ladies—the
price of which was five dollars. For
the five dollars a very cheap edition
of the Bible was sent. A fine time
keeper, with the cut of a watch,
would be advertised for $1. The
sender would expect a watch in re
turn, hut he would got a sun dial.
Groat frauds have boon carried on
by the proposed publication of hand
somely illustrated books, for which
photographs of prominent men were
solicited. It was added that to have
the* necessary copper plates en
graved would cost $10.75. A sur
prisingly largo number responded
with photographs nnd money, but
no books, of course, wore published.

It is a common practice with chil
dren living on the cable routes to
drop a string with a cork attached in'
the dot, and as the cable catches it
and drags it along to follow it up for
a block or two. or until they grow
tired.
Georgia Raiscovich, eight years
old, penuaded his little brother Spiro
that they could ride without paying.
Georgia procured a throo-eigliths,
five-strand clothesline from the back
yard of the store and carefully fast
ened it around his little brother's
waist The rope was strong enough
to settle a dozen California stage
robber*. There was six feet of the
rope left when Georgia concluded to
give his little brother a free fide, and
with Bomo trouble he dropped the
loose end of the clothesline into the
dot.
The rope was promptly taken up
by the big H-inch cable and little
Spiro started down the street to tlie
astonishment of his big eight-year-
old brother. The connection was
made directly in front of St. Igna
tius’ church. From that point on
the child was dragged with tho rope
around his waist post Franklin Btroet
and Van Ness avenue, a distanco of
800 feet, and as ho came sailing
across tho avenue William E. Mur
phy, who keeps a bookstore at loo
Hayes street, saw the phenomenon.
Heat first surmised that the tiling
was a dummy, but a glance demon
strated that it was not. It was only
a live youngster skating with the
cable nnd no ono to stop it!
Oddly enough, all of the laws of
motion were upset with that young
ster. With a rope around his waist,
the engine house engineer not know-
ing anything about a foolish child
being tied to a enble, it was only nat
ural that when the lino was drawu
taut in tho middle that the child
would have to go to the morgue,
whether the line dragged hiH head or
his legs.
Providence und Mr. Murphy saved
the youngster. Mr, Murphy saw
the baby’s predicament and ran to
the rescue. The hoy and the cable
were badly mixed when Murphy saw
them, and ho followed the child
from Polk to tho junction at Larkin
street with a view to release it from
the cable.
Thero was only one way in which
to do it, and Mr. Murphy sovered the
oonneotion between the boy and the
cable at the junction of Hayes street.
Mr. Murphy bean,some evidence
of a conflict with the cable. He lmd
been tugging with tho lad’s string
with an ordinary penknife, severing
one strand after another, and finally
severed the connection at Larkin
street.
The child did not suffer much dam
age from his unhappy trip. His left
ear, from contact with the uneven
basalt blocks on Hayes street, was
partially torn away, and in contact
with one stone a gash of four inches
was mntlo on his scalp. Otlionvisc
ho was not injured,—San Francisco

THE COLORS OF WATER.

"I* R not true, grandpa, that water
bps no color?? ,
“Yea, dear child, it ii bine, but so lit*
tie so that you cannot see it," ■
‘•Can you see that It i* blue?"
"No, but still It It bine. Look at
tbit."
I took a little ultramarine on :he »n.l
of the brash and mixed It with water.
‘‘Doea it look blue uowr
"No; I tee nothing."
"Nor 1. Bnt yon taw how I put a lit
tle bine color in It with the brash.”
"Yea. lint there was not enough of it.
Put more in.”
1 silently look the glass and set it on
a piece of white paper in the bright sun-
thine. "Now look from above down
Into it.”
"It is hlne,” said the little one, clap-
ping her hands, “but only a very little."
"Look at It from the other side, where
the sun is shining into it. Is itnot a lit
tle bit red, like the bell flowers which
you picked yesterday?"
"That is wonderful," said the little
one. “It is blue from above, a little bit
red in tho sun, and when we look at it
from thia aide of the room wo see noth
ing!”
“Think about it a little. The glass is
as hroud as my finger is long. Lilt it is
at least three times as high as lay linger.
When you look at it from tho side, you
see only a finger's length of water: but
when yon look down into it, you see
through three fingers’ length of water-
three times as mncli,. You see it blue
from tho side, and three times as blue
from above, don't you?”
“Is that really true?” mid tlie little
one, as she measured with her linger.
She nodded that she was satisfied.
"Now imagine that tho water is ns
deep as the height ef the church steeple,
and deeper—tuat it reaches from hero
np into Bulvnn nnd down to Vernavaz.
Then yon would sea the water from
above it ull blue."
"Is the lake, then, really so deep?"
“Yes, nnd deeper,"
I will not contlnno tho conversation
any longer. It went- on with various
simple expertuiouts. beginning with dif
ferently colored stones, which 1 let drop
into the wnter. and then placed on the
white, then with sotting the glass with
its weakly bluish contents on differently
colored papers, and ended with my try
ing to mako the children perceive how
the colors changed when they were seen
through the whole depth of tho glass. I
will not say tlmt the little ones were
brought to a full comprehension of tho
mutter, but they stuck fast to the asser
tion that water is blue, of uu luii.iitcly
weak blue, and tlmt the blue color can
not be seen till i*u looks into a certain

Charcoal Is Good for tlio Teeth.
Charcoal is a great sweetener of
tho breath, and besidos that it
“strengthens nnd whitens the teeth,
removes tlio tartar, prevents tooth
ache and gives the gums nnd lips an

can bo placed on the point of a knife
should bo nibbed gently into the in
terstices of tho teeth on going to
bed, to be rinsed out thoroughly in
the morning. The objection to char
coal is its grittiness, and it must be
reduced as nearly as possible to an
impalpable powder. Its purifying
qualities are invaluable, and it is
said if taken inwardly it will cure in

has been suggested by a very pronounced
defect in the usual search light practice.
In order to afford sufficient time for a

the beam of light must bo revolved very

Tho ho called glass snake (loos not

like some lizards, throws off its tail
in an effort to escape. Thero are
several lizards which, when attacked,
for instance, by a bird or predacious
animal, will throw off their tails, and
the toil flopping up and down on tlie
ground diverts the enemy, and thus
gives the lizard time to escape. The
glass snake adopts the same trick,
and thus frequently saves itself. It
is true, however, that the joints of
this singular creature are so loosely
conueeted that the snake will be
broken to pieces by a blow of a stick,
though the idea of a reunion of the
broken parts is a superstitious ab
surdity. Tlie broken joints do not
rounito, though a new tail will' grow
out in'a few months if the reptile has
received no other injury.—St. Louis
