Spinoinff a Missis.-ippi Xarn.
A stcrv is told of a traveler on a
very slow train who asked the con
ductor what the trouble was, when
the engine gave a citizen or more
sharp toots with the whistle, ami
was informed that the • was a cow
on tbs track, ami whan shortly af
tertha rchistle sounded for a sta
tion the weary traveler said: U I
wonder if w liSve caught up with
that cow again.” This is a very old
yarn and has always sounded like
a fable. Jack Richardson, h mov
er, tells a story which seems iike a
libel on the great Father of Waters
/.nd which also implicates some
bovines. J\lr. Richardson, who was
formerly a Chicago newspaper
man, but is now a full Hedged edit
or and proprietor of a daily paper
in Wichita, Kan., paid Chicago a
visit, and in recounterng some re
miniscences told of a trip he made
down the Mississippi during the
low water. .Jack says that they
had considerable trouble all the
way down, but when near La
Oresie the climax was reached.
The - time was necessarily very
slow', but the greatest delay was
earned by cows. Every mile or
two the slew'p;ogress'of the boat
had to be stopped entirely, while
the deck hands rolled up their
pants, waded out and drove a herd
ot cattle trom the channel so that
the ste?mer could get by. Jack did
not use to tell such stories before
lie went to Kansas, but he told this
and never blushed.— [Chicago
Herald.
The Ilorss Swam Eight Miles.
A horse belonging to a ferryman
was on the beat at Irvine and was
in the act of drinking when he
plunged forward from some cause
and fall into the wafer up to his
nese. With remarkable instinct
he turned roun 1 and swam to the
boat, and made several efforts to
crawl back into it, bu! it only serv
ed to push it further away. By this
time he had drifted be'ow the fer
ry, and he then made efforts to get
out upon either bank. In this he
also failed, as the banks were too
steep.
He then turned aside and swam
down the middle of the river. The
ferryman, Mr. White, made vain
efforts to rescue his horse, and,
watching him until he wjs out. ©t
sight, give up all hopes of ever
seeing him again. Next morning
the passengers on the Irvine stage
were amused at the manner in
which the ferryman was fondly ca
ressing his horse which had just ar
rived, and later the passengers
learned that the steamboat from
Ford had picked up the swimming
animal eighl miles below. When
dragged upon the boat he sank
down, foo completely exhausted to
stand. When this became known
fhe sympathizing passengers join
ed with Mr. White iu his exuber
ance over the recovery of his noble
steed.—[Richmond Register.

Caught a Monster ftharlc.
Ed. Roberts and J. Hutra, two
fishermen, caught a busking shark
Sunday night. They w ere about
four or five miles from the shore
and had 200 feet of net out. The
shark ran in o the net and got tan
gled. Fighting furiously to get
free, this ii*h only wrapped himself
tighter in the folds of tbe net. The
fisherman let him alone until he
drowned himself, and with The as
sistance ot seven boats pulled him
into the bay and to where lie now
lies near the wharf. The net was
damaged to the extent of S2O, but
the men sold the shark to Perez
brothers, so that they lost nothing
by it. These basking sharks are
not man eaters and are not all dang
erous. The one captured is be
tween thirty and thirty-five feet
long, and weighs two tons. As the
liver of this species is about one
third of the whole fish, the amount
of oil that can be tried out ot its
liver will be between 100 and 150
galioß.s.—[Santa Cruz Surl.
Mrs. Robert Stephens, who lias
just returned from Eddyville, tells
us that the hair upon the head @f
Mr. W. P. Emerson, which has for
years been gray, is now turning
black. It is ilaimed that no dye

but that it is a freak ol nature. Mr.
Emerson removed to Eddy villa
from this city about a year ago,
and when li® left here his head was
nearly white. It is the only in

heard of, and is, indeed, very re
markable. Mr, Emerson is a man
