The Utillty of sharL,s Teeth,

The natives on some of the Pacific Islands, being provided with neither metals nor any stone harder than the coral rocks, of which the atels they in- habit are composed, would seem badly off, indeed, for material of which to make tools or weapons, were it not that their very necessity has bred an inven- ton no less ingenious than curious and effective. This is nothing less than the use of sharks teeth to give a cutting edge to their wooden knives and swords. The mouth of the shark con- tains 800 teeth, arranged in five rows, all closely lying upon each other, ex- cept the outer row, and so constructed that as one tooth is broken or lost an- other takes it's place. The teeth are not only pointed and keen-edged, but are finely and regularly serrated, so that the cutting power is greatly increased. Indeed, so great faculty have these teeth for wounding that the implements and weapons upon which they are used have to be handled with great care. The Kingmin islanders make many strange articles of sharks teeth. Chicago Her M1d.

 Follow the Irish Leader.


 Follow the Irish Leader.
 LONDON March 14.-The McCarthyites are making every effort to defeat the ob- ject of the visit of Mir. Parnell's deputa- tion to America. For about two weeks past private detective has been engaged in following MT. Parnell in Ireland and England with the view of getting up ad- ditional scandal about MT. Parnell and Mrs O'Shea, to be telegraphed to America about the same time as the arrival of the envoys.
 It is said that the detective has gath cred evidence showing that MT. Parnell has kept up his relations with Mrs O'Shea the same as before tho divorce suit. Mir. Parnell's friends neither deny nor admit the statement, but aver that Mir. ParneI intends to marry Mrs. O'Shea as soon as the decree of divorce is made absolute. They also claim that Mrs O'Shea and her daughters being without protector, MT. Parnell is justified in looking after them.
 It Is said that Mir Parnell delayed the issue of his manifesto until after an in- terview with Thomas Power O'Connor, who went to Brighton to meet MT. Parnell directly upon landing.

kALAkAuA's LOVE oF SPORT

How the Monarch Undertook to Train
 some Native Oarsmen.
 The king was very fond of sport, says the San Francisco Post, and was never happier than when consorting with the athletes who wandered to his island while returning from the orient by way of San Francisco. The fever for boat racing in Australia caught his at tention, and he conceived the idea of introducing that fascinating sport at the islands.
 He had only to express a wish for it and the oarsmen among the white pop ulation challenged n crew of the natives to four-oared boat race. Tho articles of agreement were at once drawn up, the stakes deposited and date set. The king made up his mind that the natives would be beaten If he did not become their trainer. He was so en- thusiastic in the matter that he would allow no one but himself to carry out all the preparations for the contest. He selected seven of the most skillful scullers among his subjects and placed them in training according to his idea of the most approved manner. He told them that they might be us strong as mules, but if they did not train their wind they would never win the race. He then ordered them to be up every morning at sunrise and await him at the gate of the palace.
 The next morning he was in the sad dle in time to meet his crew. He car ried a long blacksnake whip. His | orders to the scullers were: "You must run as hard as you can until tell you | to stop. and if vo1l don't" He cracked his whip as forcible finish to his threat.
 He ran them for three miles the first morning, and increased the distance every succeeding day. In the after noon he administered to each of them a
 liberal dose of physic. In the evenings he trained them in the boat. He over trained them, and they lost the race be- fore half the course was covered. Kalakaua was passionately fond of sailing yacht. He owned one which carried too. much sail for any wind greater than a strong breeze.
 One day he sailed much farther out to sea than he usually did. He was lazily watching the multitude of hungry sharks which swarmed around his boat when a storm blew up. He shortened sail as quickly as possible, and every time he looked at the water he saw the sharks watching him. When he was carefully working his way back to the island the sharks continued to watch every movement of his arm at the helm as though debating the chances of his escape from their jaws. He fooled them, though; but he afterward lost all desire for yachting.

PARNELL ASKS AID
He Appeals to Irish-Americans
 to Help His EnvOys.
FULL TEXT OF THE DOCUMENT
He Says the Patriotic Party is to be En-
 tirely Reconstructed.

He Classifies the Seceders and Will Lop on the Rotten Branches-Fortune, He Says, Has Unveiled the Danger-The Irish Leader Hopes to Win Freedom by Con- stitutional Means.
 LONDON, March 14.-Mr. Parnell has made public his long-expected manifesto. The full text of the document follows:
 Saturday, March is. To THE IRISH PEOPLE OF AMERICA:
 Fellow Countrymen-In 1880 and subsequent years you assisted me powerfully by your in fucnce upon American public opinion, and with your generous financial support to create the great movement of the Land League.
 Without your aid, so freely given and so con- stantly maintained, Ireland could not for one moment have made head against her ap- pressors.
 Stil less could she have attained the singular position of power, and the promise of success, which she has occupied during the last five years.
 At the instant when victory seemed near and certain the nasty and meddlesome inter ferences of the English politicians in the com plex organization of our party, aided by n sudden movement among some young raw re- cruits, eagerly seconded by few malcontents, ofhce-seekers and envious persons, who crept into our ranks temporarily destroyed the unity of our forces, and sapped the independence of many Irish representatives
 His Task to Restore Unity.
 It now becomes my task to restore this unity and reconstruct our movement, looping off nll unsound materials, taking effectual precau- tions against the admission in the future, into our army of any weak, treacherous, self-seeking elements
 Fortune has unveiled this danger and given space for this reconstruction before the general election, and after tho disclosure has brought about a realization of the ineficency of Mir. Gladstone'S proposed solution of the situation to secure legitimate liberty, happiness and prosperity to your brothers and sisters in Ire land. This disclosure was timely and all-im- portant.
 The delegates who at my request arc now crossing the ocean to your shores, are well qualified with experience, ability and patriotism to fully explain and defend my position, which all that is sound, courageous and reliable at home have assumed with me at this crisis.
 commend them to your hospitality and am confident that you will extend to them the most favorable reception and hearing. They arc each and all well tried soldiers who have against coercion and British misrille, and who, despite intimidation and influences of the most interruptions and far-reaching character, have bravely defended me during those dark and trying moments.
 With confidence even greater than in 1880, appeal to you once more to assist me in quell- ing this mutiny and disloyalty to Ireland; to help me fin securing really independent Par lamentary party, so that wo may make one more, even though it be our very last efrort to win freedom and prosperity for our nation by constitutional means Your faithful ser want, CHARLES STEWART PARNELI-

, THE PRESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.
ES"Senator Ingalls, Thinks Cleveland and
 Harrison Wall Head the Tickets.


 Harrison win Head the Tickets. BOSTON, Mass, March 14.-Ex-Senator Ingalls, of Kansas when asked who would be the opposing candidates in 1892, re- piled:
 Cleveland will be the next nominee of the Democratic party no matter what views he may express on the tariff, the silver or other questions. believe that MT. Harrison will be renominated and that he is entitled to it by the unwritten laws of parties and by the precedent of our political system. Hill is not men, tioned in the West as a candidate" In regard to the attitude of the parties on the silver question Mir. Ingalls, said: "If the Republican party nominates an anti-silver coinage candidate in 1899 and inserts plank of the same character in its platform, it is doubtful if it could carry two States west of the Alleghanies. The gravity of the situation is not fully apprehended or appreciated in the East. "

 ALTOONA, March 14.-Boyd Gilmore, 16 years old who was arrested in this city and taken to jail at Hollidaysburg for killing his uncle, Hugh Stewart, on Nov. 13, 1890, by striking him on the head witha baseball bat, was tried yesterday.

Fifteen Employees of a Brush Factory Fall
 to the Floor Unconscious.
 READING, Pa., March 14.-Fifteen em. ployes in the brush factory of Charles B. Miller, in Shoemakersville, this county, had very narrow escape from asphyxia- tion about noon.
 While the hands, numbering 23 in all, were at work on the second floor sick ening odor pervaded the building and in few minutes 15 young men and women fell to the floor unconscious. The others managed to reach the windows aud let in some fresh air. After much diIculty all were revived.
 The deadly sulphur which had over come the men and women came from the boiler, where the gas had exploded, shut ting the damper. It is believed that but for the fact that some of the hands had strength enough to open the windows all would have been suffocated.
