A Brilliant YOUNG Man.

Science has lost an enthusiastic and
most promising explorer and investiga-
tor by the death of MIR. Frank Hatton,
the eldest son of Joseph Hatton, the
London correspondent of the Times. At
the time of his death, Mr.. Hatton was
not yet % years OF age, yet he had
achieved many honors, and had shown
the possession of powers which, it he had
lived, would have placed him IN the front
rank of naturalists. From boy
hood he had manifested wonderful fami-
iarity with the habits and ways of the
dumb creation. 1t was said of him that
he could charm even the widest of the
tenants of the field and the wood. AS a
chemist and mineralogist, however, he
excelled, and his researches into the in
huences of gases on bacteria made him
an authority on that subject before he
was q years old. His success In this
direction gained for him the FARMLAND
prize and an election as an associate of
the institute of chemistry. His lingual
proficiency was something marvellous,
He had already mastered several eastern
dialects, which he spoke with fuency,
among them being Malay and other little
known languages of southern Asia. At
the time of his death he was at work up
on dictionary of the Dusun language.
While engaged in elephant hunting III
Borneo Mr.. Hatton' rifle became entan-
gled in the bushes and he was killed by
its accidental discharge. The death OF
this much-loved and brilliant young
man, in manner apparently so avoid
able. has brought grief upon very
wide circle of friends and acquaintance.

Catching Sharks in the Arctic Sea.
[Lieut. Schwatka in Forest and Streal


Those old piscatorial pirates, the
sharks, often invade the Arctic, no doubt
tempted by the carcases of the whales or
seals and walruses left to rot by white
men engaged in their pursuit Natives
angling from their skin canoes in deep
water occasionally catch sluggish shark
who has engulfed the bait, but there is
no use pulling against such mountain
OF flesh and relying upon sheer strength
to bring hun up; and this the Innuit
Izaak Walton fully knows, and over
comes his strength by sagaclty. At every
brisk pull by Mr.. Shark, showing him
to be 1rrltated, the line is lowered to APP
pease him, but cautiously hauled III
again almost immediately, the shark
slowly rising to this stragic manipulation
until ''llke fnny fool he rests upon the
surface of the water merely by the aid of
the weakest fishing line, when with a
long knife the fisherman dexterously
dispatches him by Well-directed thrust
through the spinal cold. From their
we'll known voracity in warmer climates
1t seems singular indeed that they do
not oftener attack the native fishermen
IN their little skin canoes, but their is
nOb I6COTuGu OF KNOWN instance
of such attacks even on the west sh ore
of Greenland, where they are most num-
erous, and wnere the natives catch large
numbers of rhem-from 10, 900 to 90, 900
a year, according to DIR. Rink, Danish
inspector OF this coast for a long number
of years. The most usual method of
catching these fish can hardly be said to
be fishing at all. Near hole In the ice
a lighted torch is placed, and two natives
stand on opposite sides of the hole
with two sharp hand-hooks, like deck
hands of steamer at the end of chute
waiting for merchandise, until the shark
sticks his nose out, when he is treated
in about the same business-like man
ner as he is hauled on the ice, where
their carcases often accumulate by
hundreds, as this shark fishery when
once commenced is generally car
lied on through the whole winter.
The cartilaginous bones are the
| favorite parts for food, as the raw frozen
fish seems to have depressing effect
when long continued, and to it is attri-
buted the dog disease of the north when
fed to them, and which every few years
carries off SO many of these useful ami
mails

A SFSTlhA.
BY H. c. FAULKNER.

(LEGENn.-In New Hampshire, near the banks of
he Connecticut River, there is small pond, very
deep, and whose water is of deep crimson color.
The country adjacent, in the colonial days. was oc-
cupied by the Abenaki tribe of Indians, who were
driven away by the English settlers. Associated
with the pool i the following legend:J
Beside the rushing stream that vainly tries
To the banks away, and long has fought
With angry foods and unexpected rise
To kiss their mossy brows as if it thought
To win its prize by passion. Then swift dies
And shuns the heights which it madly sought.
Within whispering wood undoubted sought,
You think, by fays and sprites; but when one
tries
To picture il their home the fancy dies;
For ghostly red as if souls tortured fought
To hide beneath and lave their bleeding thought,
There turks pool whence mocking shadows rise.
From midnight shadows of the pool doth rise
An Indian girl, by peepng moonbeams sought,
And clad with silver light, as if they thought
To make the maid more beautiful She tries
TO still. her heart, which beeds as if it fought
With some great grief whose memory neer dies.
The maiden. fairer than the West where dies
The day. with plaintVe song sings of Loves rise
And fail. How in the oden time there fought
Against her tribe youth SO fair, who sought
Her love. Now changed her song captain tries
To conquer conqueror with amorous thought.
A day he nadly loves but When she thought
flysiunl was won, his passion dies.
Mad with hot love, to win kiss she tries,
Low kneeing at ms feet, Where, ne'er TO rlse
He kills her. and her heart-bloou streaming sought
This pool Lost the fierce battle she had fought.
Her trait'rons lover sought the pool, and fought
With mis- mad dreams; to cool his fevered thought
He drank Exultant. to the depths she sought
To tempt him. Loi he falls, and struggling dies.
Her song ls done, and as the sun doth rise
He seeth naught but shadows though he tries.
L'ENyOI
And to this day. they say, mortal dies,
If iaithess to his love, and viii neer rise
If STOPPING there to quencn his thirst he tries.

A Tkree-Cent Stamp Worth 500.
TErnn the Boston Traualar /

In 1916, while awaiting supplies from
the department at Washington, the post
masters of certain cities were authorized
to issue stamps temporarily. Among
others SO issuing was the postmaster of
Brattleboro. Eight hundred stamps
were printed, and of these one-half we're
burned. Collectors have been In search
of some of these stamps, and it was con-
sidered hopeless matter to procure one
of them. One collector, however. who
was shrewder than the rest, Instituted a
search for the engraver, whom he found
residing N Springfield, and he had still
remaining seven of these precious
squares, which he disposed to the col
lector for seventy-tive cents each. be-
sides furnishing undubitable proof of the
genuiness of the issue, the very existence
of which was doubted. The fact of the
purchase leaked out, and dealer offered
81 piece for SIX of the seven. This was
refused by the original purchaser, who de-
manded five times that SUM. and before
the money reached him although it was
sent with promptitude, he had an offer
of $40 apiece. Being an honest man. he
stuck to his first offer, and parted with
six for $50. The most precious of the
lot, which bore the engraver's name. he
retained possession of, and this is the
one he has now sold for 500.

ness, Godfrey Denyer was determined
TO do so, regardless of the circum-
stances.
This resolution had cost him severe
struggle with his moral cowardice, but
at length he succeeded la summoning
up the necessary fortitude for his self
imposed penance. II he secretly hoped
that Captain Wrake would be satisfied
with some smaller sacrifice, he was new
ertheless perfectly sincere IL his pur.
pose He returned to England looking
prematurely aged, with streaks of gray
In his hair, though he was barely thirty.
But his bearing was calm and resolute,
and shrewd observer would have
guessed at once that he had suffered
some great trouble which had darkened
his young life.
On the day whan Captain Wrake was
released from prison Godfrey Denyel
sent to him a request that he would
grant him an interview at an inn near
the gates of the jail. He felt deeply ag-
itated at the prospect of finding himself
face to face it'll the man who must have
been curslng him bitterly for years, and
who would now be the arbiter of his
fate; but his frnness didnot desert him,
and, when Captain Wrake appeared his
purpose never Wavered.
To his amazement the captain hung
his head and accepted his outstretched
hand without hesitation. but in very
humble manner. Godfrey could scarce
ly believe his senses. and doubted al
first whether it was really his former
| friend who stood before him. It was in.
deed he, however, though he too had
aged and was much changed in appear
| ance. For moment neither spoke, and
then suddenly the captain burst into
tears and said, IN choked voice:
'sDenyer, don't say word [ cans
bear it. II guess now who has been
the savior of my poor wife and children.
What am [ to say to your noble con-
duct? You first stand my friend by not
appearing against me at the trial, so as
to give poor devil a chance, and then
then you act as guardian angel to those
I have SO cruelty wronged. And you OF
all others are the person from whom
[ had the least right to expect kind
ness"
"Why?" demanded Denyer, hoarsely,
with wild throbblng at his heart.
"Why? How can you ask? You know
my offence, F." said the captain, averting
his face.
"Do you mean-do you mean that
you were really guilty?" cried Denyer,
with blessed sense of load being sud-
denly lifted from his mind
"God forgive me, yes was desper-
ate. your helpl essness tempted me. and
and" the captain paused and hung
his head again, while Godfrey Denyer
involuntarily gave a long-drawn sigh OF
relief.

PIONEERS OF RRvoLu ZION. {,

a Chicago paper considers circular
sent to it worthy leader. The document
comes from San Francisco, is ga blood
curdling affair with mysterious diagrams,
skull and Cross bones and insignia of in
sanity, and purports to be issued by eve,
the mechanics, skilled workmen and wage.
workers of San Francisco, the pioneers of
revolution, the men who have produced all
the real wealth this city owns" It warns
the people that in San Francisco there must
be an immediate and equal division of all
their worldly goods by those who have by
industry, energy and toll won share of
property and means, and whom the circular
denominates as "loafers," with the shiftless
drunken ruffians who have nothing. The
Chicago press, which had its nerves shaken
by Herr Mosts villainous harangues, can
learn that such silly proclamations have
little effect in California. The San Fran
cisco hoodlum does not represent the me-
chanics and wage.winners of this State.
The circular declares that these &C pioneers
of revolution number 100, 000," and that
their enemies number but 5000; that the
latter have all, having produced nothing,
while the nameless pioneers have moth
ing, having produced all. The probability
is that the circular is the product of
british mind-the work of a rufhanly
hoodlum-representing few communistic
villains who would cut throat for penny
and spend the plumber for rum. Now that
San Francisco is to be robed in darkness
for three months, these rascals will have
fine opportunity TO rally their 100, coo men
and fall to with fire and sword. But silly
as is the proclamation, it is not to be de-
MED that there are elements in all our
great cities, drawn from the offEcourings of
Europe, the lazy and brutal followers of
Herr Most, among whom such possibility
as outlined in the circular is dreamed of.
It would be better for society if this ele-
ment would test its strength at once, that
it may be crushed out so effectually there
will not be seed enough left to start an.
other crop of braggarts to alarm the timid.

DRUNKNEss AND FALsEHooD. -Whenev-
er strong drink produces permanent effect
upon the human body there is established
in the affected person the habit of false.
hood. No one has met with dipsomaniac
whose word can be relied on. Women or
men, the members of the dipsomaniac class
have, to some extent, and too often to the
saddest or EXTREMIST extent, forgotten the
truth. This is so certain that falsehood
becomes a part of the diagnosis-;f we may
so say-of these cases, There are two
modes of accounting for this rem arkable phe.
nomenon. 1t may be said that the habit of
untruthfulness is begotten with, not of, the
habit Of intoxication. The habit NAV be
looked upon IN this light as part of a
general degradation or deterioration of
character. Again it may be said that the
habit is begotten of intoxication. It may
be looked upon in this light as an effect Of
the intoxication in the same way as color
blindness may be the direct effect of a
chemical which. like alcohol, produces
when taken into the body in large
quantities, nervous alteration. Inscru.
table as it may seem, and as indeed it
is, l believe this last explanation is the
nearest TO the correct explanation of the
phenomenon. DR.. Richardson, T. R. S.
