A Story for the Marines. Told 60 San
Is francisco Reporter. -

FROM the san francisco Bullehn.] IN
a reporter of the Bulletin yesterday,
walking along the city front, perceived an
italian tishermanS engaged in repairing his
boat at the foot oftSaeramento street. He
was n stalwarts ,brawny fellow. :: The re.
porter, observing that he took q manifest
pride in his craft, remarked that q fisher.
mans life on this coast was attended with
many hardships." The fisherman answered
that fishing on the California coast was q
luxurious occupation compared with his
labors elsewhere. He had, few months be.
iere his arrival here betn wrecked on the
South American coast, and all the crew of the
lost bark, hailing from Genoa, were compelled
to take toa raft, After four days existence on
few biscuits saturated with brine, and W hilst
suffering from agoni2ing thirst he fell asleep
on the forward part tae'raft, and incau.
aously hung his legs within q few inches OF
the surface of the Water. About midnight
be felt something grasp him by the leg, and
he was dragged down, to. the lower portion
Of the raft, which was couple Of feet under
water. He threw out his; hands and felt q
slippery body for it was a shark that had
attacked the unconscious sleeper. "A terri.
Bile struggle ensued..u The fish was not fully
grown, and his strength was about equally
matched with the victim he had chosen for
supper. They-rolled over and over, the
sailor getting his hands in the monsters
jaws, and the sharp rows of teeth lacerating
them fearfully.q AT one time the ,assailant
was, within few feet of the water, and
almost succeeded in dragging his prey with
him, but the man, though sorely exhausted
rallied, and with one vigorous. effort hauled
the shark on the dry portion Of the raft
hfc Hocxx oh Ia fn
for, though awakened by bis, cries at the
outset, they became too ipanic-strieken
to lift. a, hand to help him. Now,
assaulted the intruder and. dispatched
him. The fisherman had the muscles Of his
left leg torn away, and he tainted from loss
of blood at the end of the struggle. His
companions bound up the wound with strips
of their clothing, and then made good
supper off the, carcass of the man-eater,
About two hours afterward the raft grounded
on the beach, and the unfortunate waits
lunded. They made a large fire Of brush,
and during the four following days subsisted
on nuts and shellfish. AT night the .jaguars
surrounded their camp and howled dismally
One of. the party, who had some knowledge
Of herbs, boundrup, the wounded limb with
leaves, which much relieved the sufferer. A
toasting schooner at last picked them up,
but all were attacked with the yellow fever
The schooner put in at Rio Janeiro, and
there, the sick men were put into little
wooden cabin outside the town. All, with
the exception of the hero of the shark, have
died, and he, after his recovery, shipped fol
San Francisco. Now he is settled down to
fishing, and never. cares about venturing on
