All the people in y Paris house were
startled one night by tremendous noise
made in an upper apartment. Rushing
to the doors they saw a man come down
four steps at a time He was arrested,
half dead with fear. He was thief, had
made his way in with false key. and
feeling his way about the apartments
from room to room to find valuables,
had come upon some strange. movable.
upright thing in the middle of room.
He felt of it. passed his hand higher and
higher and felt face. cold MS ice,
Frightened sager to escape. he could not
find his way to the door. and in his flight
upset every article of furniture in the
apartment. Then they all went up stairs
and fonnd the tenant OF the fourth floor
hanged in his room.

A RACE FISH AND GREAT MONSTER.

RARE FI.H AND A GREAT MONSTER.
Capt. Rand of the schooner Morning
Star. Oh the voyage from Galapagos to
San Francisco, put into Salina Cruz, for
wood and water. While lying there one
morning, as the water-boat was going
ashore, an immense fish was seen swim
ming ABOUT the schooner. Its great size
astonished every one, but as the captain
had attacked whales he did not scruple
to assail this monster, and having
harpoon bent it to the boats painter and
let drive. As soon as the fish took the
iron Ii set off for the mouth of the
harbor. putting the boat trough the
water at pace that made the foam curl
high over her sides and threatened to dip
her by the nose every moment, every
now and then the fish would sound.
which compelled all hands to rush
astern to prevent the boat from follow
ing the monster. As it was, the mate.
who had a blubber knife in his hand.
would thrust away enerPetlcally:
but. though pierced by hundred
wounds, the monster kept on seemingly
proof against death. The situation of the
crew now became critical. They had
reached the mouth of tina bay. and were
in fair way of going to sea: but as
they were about cutting the line, lucky
stroke made by the mate with his blub-
her spade put an end to the monster
Having killed it, the sailors were
anxious to have good look at they
victim. 1t was accordingly hauled
ashore, and the tide going out. was left
" high and dry" on the beach 1t
was evidently fire-f1are. fish Of the
founder variety and one of the largest
whose capture has been recorded. Its
size was eighteen by twelve feet the body
at the spine being about four feet
through. and the tail Ave feet long Its
appearance was anything but prepos-
sessing, while its tremendous size was
alone enough to intimidate. The cap
tain said he had some brave men among
his crew, not one would care to tackle
another such fish.

Rapid Transit.

Colonel Thomas A. Scott. President Of
the Pennsylvania Railfoad Company. in
the course Of an interesting interview
with one of our correspondents. pub
lished few days ago, informs us that
he il now about to improve his railway
system between New York and Philadel-
phia that we shall have rapid transit by
"a series of elegantly upholstered and
rapidly flying trains, that will lap the
distance in about one half the time now
consumed by the swiftest expresses.
TIE road is to be improved. sidings are
to be built. new engines of the strongest
calibre will be nut on the track. Phila-
delphia and New York are the two larg-
est cities of the country. They are
closely connected by thousand inter
ests. The distance between them could
be accomplished in AN honr and half II
We ran trains upon the speed maintained
between London and Brighton. What
is wanted between New York and Phila-
delphia is not large trains of heavy cars.
but small trains, running in quick sue
cession. 1t would be much better for us
to have the English system of cars.
which are smaller and quite as comfort
able for day travel. II = train could be
run between Philadelphia and New
York in an hour and a half, leaving say
every hour during the day. it would be
of incalculable advantage to the two
cities. If Colonel Scott succeeds in
achieving this result he will merit the
gratitude OF the people. and. no donbt.
add largely to the usefulness and value
of his railwav.-N. Y. Herald.
