THE SEA MONSTER.
Comprehensive History of the Best Adver-
tised Saurian on Record

Comprehensive History of the Best Adver-
tised Saurian on Record
More than one hundred years ago,
Rev. Paul Egede, who read three hour
sermonsfn 1884, went on mission to
Greenland, and while there saw the sea-
serpent. The parson said that it had
''lOng sharp snout, uneven wrinkled
skin, formed like snake and turned its
tail up above the surface This was
rather mild sea-serpent and as it was
seen on the 9th of July, we may reason
ably conclude that the parson had been
celebrating the 4th and was just getting
ever it. 1t is true, the 4th of July was
not invented until forty-two years after
this, but it is a common thing, even in
this day, for some men to begin cele-
brating several days in advance.
Captain Laurence de Ferry, probably
the ancestor of Fulton Ferry, next saw
the S. S. in 1746. The captain was a
sailor and saw the serpent through nine
or ten glasses darkly. His sea-serpent
had feet, "two of which it held above
the water it had "a head like horse, ="
and the folds of the snake which showed
above water were a "fathom apart.
No mention is made of the head which
the gallant captain had on himself the
next morning, but it is likely that he
would have been glad to give one hun
dred dollars to boot and trade heads
with the sea-serpent
Bishop Pontoppidan, member Of the
Copenhagen Academy of Sciences, and
inventor of the game of that name so
dear to rustic belle and beau, tinted the
village himself one night, and at a late
hour the following morning had a dis
solving view of a sea-serpent that
claimed the cake. 1t had bright eyes
''like couple of pewter plates" its
body was las big around as two hogs
heads" and didn't taper off at the tai
bat terminated abruptly ike club OF
water main. From the description o.
his sea serpent, it is easy to regard the
Bishop as an authority on the evils o
stopping too abruptly, like the sea-ser
pent's tail, and the great advantage o
taperng Of gradually, like the cock
tail.
From that date the dismal stream o
intemperance flowed on in widening
channels, until everybody that wen
near a creek got a glimpse of the sea
serpent. 1t assumed its most hideou
form and aspect, however, when re
Gently it revealed its awful visage to
party of scientific gentlemen from Bos
ton, standing before them a confessed
'sea saurian possessing close atlinitie
with the fossil enaliasaura of the las.
This dreadful revelation is enough t.
make Bishop Pontoppidan or enalasau
rianough that he wasn't one of the liza
to whom this revelation was made

JUDGE TERRY AND THU, CAL
IEORNIA BENCH.

Although Judge Dayld Terry OF
Stockton has lost his fight against
the California Supreme Bench, he
is nevertheless to be congratulated
upon having opinions, coupled with
the courage TO express them.
In the examination it was hu-
initiating to see the attorneys Of
San Francisco COUGHING at the feet
OF the august tribunal on trial, and
giving testimony in their favor.
which showed how abjectly they
feared the man on trial
There We're two conspicuous ex-
anples, however, of men who rose
above the fear of having their cases
reversed, and boldly testified that
they considered the Bench weak
aud incompetent. These men
were Hydenfelt and Rhodes.
Judge Terry has set the example
that Supreme Bench, hedged
about with bogus dignity, is not
always infallible, and can be made
the subject of criticism just like or
binary persons. Because a man is
elevated to a Supreme Bench and
paid big salary to do nothing and
look dighifed, it does not follow
that he is superior mortal. Hell
Is just as liable to be an ass as any
body else.
