aA n nanrcrous q, Business.

The shark fishery Of the northern ice
sea in the bay Of Terdberskya and the
peninsula Kola has recently been re-
yived. Two kinds Of shark are found in
this region, the Greenland shark and the
basking shark. They frequently assem-

coast with small boats holding four men.
Anchoring at a certain distance from the
land, they sink o vessel pierced with
holes, containing oil, tallow, or other
fat, which the sea currents distribute in
Tho neiEhborhood. This attracts the
sharks, and they are caught with baited
hooks attached 10 iron chains, as they

toward the boat, and the fourth stands
ready with wooden hammer weighing
twenty pounds TO strike with all his
force the moment the head appears. The
ahark Is then cut open, the oil taken and

cast adrift 10 float, as II allowed to sink

sharks surround o boat 90 thickly that y

Col. Jim Bowie.

Acorrespondent Of the New York nj
bunc relates the following. 1 remember
q story 1 heard forty or fifty years ago.
A stage coach was going along an
Arkansas road. On the back seat were
three women; on the middle one, two
men, tall and muscular; while the for
ward seat held only n small man, wrap
ped up completely in o blanket. After
a time one Of the powerful men on the
middle seat LII a cigar and smoked. The
smoke went full in the face Of one Of the
women, who was both young and tinlid.
She sickened, and then requested the
man to stop smoking. This aroused the
'rufiian in him, and lie roughly declared:
"I have paid my fare; II is customaryto
smoke, and Twill smoke Us much as I
have a mind to-" Accordingly he took
out q fresh cigar, and started the smoke
cloud again. The woman could only add
TINT "Smolars ought not to forget TO be
gentlemen" This suggestion excited
the mans rage towhite heat. AT this
point the small man on the front seat
laid aside his blanket, put his left hand
on the knee OF tho enraged ruffian, in
order 10 withdraw his attention from the
woman and 10 himself, while with his
right hand he drewa bowie.knife from
It's case between his shoulder.blades.
Pointing the weapon at the heart Of the
brute, and looking him square in the
eyes, the little man quickly said: "I nm
Col. james Bowie, and unless you throw
that cigar away in one minute, / will
put this knife into your heatt, as true as
there is God" The riifllan compre;.
hended in an instant with whom he had
to deal, and threw his cigar out Of the
window without adding a word. Col.
Bowie replaced his weapon. drew his
blanket about him, and relapsed into o
condition Of apparent indifference.
