A Fight OF Ssa Monsters.

Gen. F. E. Spinner, the man of mar
velous chirography, formerly treasurer
of the United States and member of con-
gress, and now a resident of Florida,
writes the following to the Florence DIS
patch, vouching for it as "no fish story,
but truth, every word of it." The Gen
erals letter is dated ''South Beach below
Mayport, August Is, 1882"
Early yesterday morning. as l went
for my usual sun bath, accompanied by
my daughter, Mrs. Schumacher, we wit.
nessed what has probably seldom been
seen.
The ocean was unusually placid, but
a strange commotion in the surf was
noticed. On nearing the shore, it was
seen that fierce battle was raging be-
tween two schools of fishes, one of
sharks. and the the other of saw-fish. 1t
was high tide, and the water was quite
shallow, SO that the caudal and the
dorsal fins, of both these kinds OF sea
monsters, were constantly seen above
the water.
The onslaught of each of the com
batants. of which from sixteen to
twenty were in view. was fierce and
terrific. A disabled saw-fsh was
the edge of piece of floor board, gave
him the "coup de grace. He measured
nearly fifteen feet, and carried sword
saw three feet and half long, with over
fifty teeth on its margins. It was found
that one of the sharks had bitten piece
out of his side equal to foot square.
through which his bowels protruded. At
one time it looked as if another pair OF
~ = Il L. H.
their struggle they came so near the
shore that they touched bottom all the
time, but they finally managed to join
their companions in. deep water, and
after fifteen minutes all the belligerents
disappeared. to the great relief of those
who cared more for sea bathing than for
seeing the terrific fights of sea mon
sters.
My daughter will carry the saw of the
captured fish to her home as memento
and trophy of the great conflict, and fol
an addition to her cabinet of ocean curl
osities.

A Love of a Room.

A young working girl of this city, by
the exercise of her own innate good taste,
and putting every spare penny where it
would do the most good, has furnished
forth charming room at comparatively
small expense and sufficiently aesthetic
to please the most fastidiods person.
The floor, painted by her own hands, is
a dark walnut shade, partly covered by
large rug made of cheap ingram carpe,
in small pattern of cream and olive
bordered by broad band of plain olive
felt. The Inexpensive wall paper is plain
olive, flecked with pink, finished by
narrow olive frieze, terminating at the
corners with cluster of four tiny pink
fans. One window faces dingy brick
wall, and she painted the window panes
in bright water colors, following pretty
traced pattern, which gives 9 bit of
stained glass quite effective in the pretty
room. The other window is draped
gracefully with long full folds of sprigged
pine roll, to be replaced in the Winter
with heavier curtain of olive cotton
flannel.
The furniture is light wood, and q
lamp with rosy transparency stands on
10 ClOCk t01 tdUlc Vi uuFdEAISu6O HOOu,
and throws soft light over the room,
which also contains books, shelves of
pine, a couple of second hand easy chairs
and small dry goods box for shoes,
covered by her own hands with pink
and olive eretonne. A large clothes
horse, on which she pasted the story of
Cinderella III Walter Cranes pictures
over olive paper, shuts off the wash stand
and bedstead from vie '. The toilet ac-
cessories, set off with fresh sprigged
muslin over pink lining. are pink and
white washbowl and large pitcher of
the quaint shape that comes now in the
cheaper grades of china; a second hand
wardrobe, draped with porter of olive
canton flannel, contains the un@sthetlc
dust-pan, brooms, and other homely ar
ticles necessary to neatness and comfort,
all trifes of that description bought at
the five-cent counters. A pretty willow
rocking chair, ornamented with olive
and pink ribbon, and knitted hassock
to match, the two latter Christmas gifts,
stood on the rug.
On the olive-draped mantle are grand
mas Nankin teapot, two tall silver can
dlesticks and large ginger jar, not dec
Grated and spoiled with gummedon pic
lures, but left in its pristine blue and
white beauty, filled with white daisies
gathered on Sunday afternoon walks.
Two or three photographers of good sub
iects, thatare better than chromos and
cost less, hang on the wall and complete
the pretty refuge of this proud and in
dustrious girl, who is self-respecting
enough to earn her own living rather
than to be dependent upon her rich rela;

HOME.
ELLA WHEELER

This is the place loge the best,
The little brown house, like q ground-bird's
nest.
Hid among the grasses and vines and trees,
Summer retreat Of the birds and bees.
The tenderest light that ever was seen
Sits through the vine made window screens,
Sits and quivers, and fits and falls
On homemade carpets and gray-hung walls.
All through June, the west wind free
The breath of the clover brings to me,
All through the langaid July day
catch the scent of the new-mown hay.
The morning glores and scarlet vine
Over the doorway twist and twine;
And every day when the house is still,
The humming- bird comes to the window wsiil.
In the cunnIngest chamber under the sun
sink 10 sleep when the day is done,
And am walked at morn, in my sho " white bed
BY singing bird on the roof DER head.
Better than treasures brought from Rome,
Are the living pictures sse at home;
Ny aged father, with frosted hair,
And mothers face, like painting rare.
Far from the cty,s dust and heat,
get but sound and odors sweet.
Who can wonder 1 love to stay,
Week after week, were hid away
In this sly noak, that love the best,
The little brown house, like ground-brdsi

The Kerdive.

"Well. what you hear about the Key
dive?" said Last Cbance man yesterday
in front of the postoffice.
Hes having quite picnic as near as
I can get at it. Old Gum Arabic and
the Kerdive have had set-to, it seems,
at Alexander" said man from the Ore
gon Short Line.
"Well, now that Arab Bey hiss soured
on the Khedive. 'spose we may look for
perdition to be poppin' purity plenty
said the fat man from Council Bluffs.
Speaking about the Kerdeeva," said
young man with tight pants and q
wealth of peeled nose, "what is his posi-
ton relative to the Egyptian Govern
ment?"
"Why, the keddiv is the High Tycoon;
the Big Injun; the High Mucby- Muck
of the rancho. He's the Governor and
Arab Bey has throwed off on him. said
the train-dispatcher of the North Park
branch.
"Well, what did he want to throw of
on the Kerdeeve fur?" interrogated the
COW gentleman. just in from the trail.
Just then, however, the man vas called
away, so that he never got at the true
inwardness of the Egyptian trouble, and
is little mixed also in the pronunciation
of the Khediye's name Boomerang.

Mrs. Rainor. "You afe 30 radiantiy
beautiful tonight that it cheers me to
look at you. Are you happy?'
Eyes, indeed, auntie, and Won and un-
Gle will be, too, in the morning. | am
going to have company to breakfast, and
Iwant you to get good nights rest, SO
you will be ready to receive my guest.
You can never guess who it is, and i
won't tell you, SO good night" and be-
slowing loving kiss upon each, the
beautiful girl left them.
Bright and early the next morning
Maze was fitting back and forth from
dining-room to kitchen, and from kitchen
to dining-room, giving her orders for
breakfast, the servants all the while eye
ing her in perfect amazement. for such a
thing had never before been heard of.
81 am gong to have some friends to
breakfast" she explained, 'and / want
things arranged according to my own
taste. I viii also wait upon the table
myself.
Fred was the first to respond to the
bell. AS the judge ane his wife entered
he approached them.
Mother, father" he said, taking a
hand of each. through the influence OF
that dear little WomOn, DoWlng his mead
to Maze, 81 am resolved to lead better
lite. Will you take me back to your
hearts as Of yore?,'
Too happy to speak, his mother laid
her head upon his breast and wept. His
| father walked around the table to where
Maze was standing, and taking her in his
arms, said: "God has, indeed, rewarded
| me"
Long years have passed since then
but as Maze sits in the midst of hel
grandchildren, telling them of their
! grandfather's pledge, she is more beauti-
full than ever. A tear glistens in
Grandpa Fred's eyes as he produces g
small bunch of faded flowers: and the
children, guessing at the tender memo
ries they call forth, leave them alone to
live again the happy hours of Their
youth, with the fixed purpose of doing
some great good, as grandma did.
