Mr TcCARw' al not pay much at
teniou u local Option at first. He had
uY idea that any portion of the COM
munity would avail itself of the privi-
lege the law gave for cutting off the
retail liquor business; so he did not
trouble himself about the details of
the law, and it was not until the No
license vote began to be heard of in
every direction from our friends home
that he thought of studying the main
points of Local Option. He soon dis
covered the five-gallon clause, and
almost instantaneously with the dis
covery came the knowledge that while
the arrangement was of nature that
did not interfere with the inclination
of the rich man or the gentleman of
moderate means to get as drunk as q
lord or an alderman, il certainly did
initiate somewhat against the COM
fort of the poor man, who could not
purchase five gall of whisky ex-
cept where his credit was good, which
it seldom is anywhere. When this
popularity of the law had been made
apparent to Mr.. MCCARTY, there was
some profane language scattered about
and Local Option lost half dozen
votes in nthatimmediate neighborhood.
The rich man can buy his five gallons
of fine old rye and take it home. If
he gets as drunk as policeman that
is all right, but the poor fellow who
works all week for ten dollars cannot
purchase five gallons of whisky, and
the law denies his right to purchase it
by the glass. Mr.. MCCARTY says it's
hardly fair on the poor man.

GOING HOME.


Who're are you going 80 fast Old nan
Where are you going go last;
There's valley % cross and river % ford,
There's clasp ot the hand and a parting word,
And a tremulnas sigh for the past, old man
The beautiful vanished past.
The road has been rugged and rough, Old man,
To your feet its rugged aud roughi
But Won see a dear being with gentle eyes,
Haf shared vnur labor and sacrifice.
All that has been sunshine enough, old man (;
For you and me, sunshine enough.
How long since you passed DER the hill, old man,
OfIfe? Ger the top of the hill
We're ;here beautiful wales on the other side
Were there flowers and trees with their 6ranehes
wide,
To shut OF the heat of the sun, old men,
The heat OF The fervid sum-
And how did YOU cross the waves, old msn,
OF SORROW the fearful waves
Did YOU nv your dear treasures by, one by on =,
With an aching heart. and Gods will be done,
Under the wayside dust old man;
In the grave meath the wayside dust j.?
There Is sorrow and labor for all, old man;
Alas there is sorrow for all;
And you. peradveuture, have bad your share,
For eighty long winters have whitened your
hair.
And they've vhitened your heart as well, old
Thank God, your heart as well.
You're now at the foot ofthe hill, old man;
At last at the foot Of the hill,
Thesun has gone down in golden glow,
And the heavenly city lies just below,
Go in through the pearly gate, old nan
The beautiful pearly gate.

Tough Yarn.

A correspondent Of the St Louis Republican
describes the following scene, which, he says
he witnessed on recent voyage to China.
One day was putting on new hook about
the size Of boat hook, when the man at tie
wheel saw huge shark under our stern. lie
had been following us for some time. As soon as
the man told me about it 60, large piece Of
ia, pork. three or four pounds, for bait, and
dropped it over board His sharkship saw 1t
and came slowly toward it. The water was
nice and clear. He leli the bait with his nose,
and turned over on bis side, opened his pom
derous mouth, aud took in hook, bait, md all,
then started. Il fairly made woodwork
smoke, as the heavy line played out oves IT.
We soon stopped him by taking round on
Delaying pin, and we broush' him mp with a
sudden jerk that almost straishiened out the
huge iron hook Il took three men 10
haul him on deck, and he made things lively
for time sure. He hounced and bounced
around the pop-deck in.o the lee-scuppers.
The cook went for him with a carvins-knife,
and the first lick be made at him be missed
him. The shark gave bounce, striking the
cook with his tail behind both legs The deck
being slippery, the cooks legs few from under
him, and he dropped on the broad Of bis back
as fat as founder The cook nothing daun-
ted, went for the shark again, and this time cut
him clean open. That didn't take the fight
out Of him. |, took two men, with board
across bis tail, to hold it down 10 the deck,
while two men held the line the hook in his
mouth, so he coull not do any more damage.
The shark is / sailors greatest enemy at
sea. Jack hates him worse than poison.
They took the insides out Of the fellow. His
heart boa. for two hours and twenty minntes
afterward by the watch. We pitched him
overheard. and he kept Topping about as if he
wanted something's 50 we threw him his in
sides. minus the heart, which he no sooner saw
than he eobbed them up aud started oiT; but
they fell ont again through the slit the cook
made in him. lie kept picking them mp
and dropping them so often be must have got
tired Of that job, for be finally took them in
his teeth and made dive below ont Of sight.
