The noise that the ali makes roaring

they SEE that the man is moving about.
At Callao Harbor, which is a regular
sharks nest, l went down forty feet or
more, and met lots of these ocean
devils, but none of them offered to mo-

Callao project over the harbor, and all

back before he can strike you, and

Twenty-Five Years Ago.

Twenty-Five years ago it was a
crime to denounce slavery, and to
attempt to strike the chains from
these human creatures was treason
punishable with death. Then the
widest dreamer hardly hoped for
abolition during this century; but
to-day slavery is deader than if it
never had existed, for no man will
even dare to attempt to institute
it. So it will be in the traffic of
human lives, human hearts and
human happiness. The whisky
traffic must and surely will per-
ish, ard when once dead all the
dark and devilish powers Of earth
and hell can never restore it. AT
ter this crushing mountain is once
removed, and the people see and feel
the difference, they will never
again allow devils or men, or men
devils to roll it back upon them
