There is a funny row about Ibsen
and his plays in Australia, In the be-
ginning OF June a theatrical matinee
was given to raise funds for the Wo-
mems College of the University of sgd
ney, and the play selected was Ibsen's
"Dukkehjem." Various dignitaries
allowed their names to be printed as
patrons of the performance, but when
the Countess of Jersey, the Governors
lady, was applied to she refused, saw
ing that from what she had heard of
lsben she had no wish to see one OF his
plays and that it was impossible that
an actress who could play in such a
piece could be a lady. This was
thought to be cruel and gratuitous
insult to Miss Achurch, who was to
play the principal character. Letters
have been written to the London news
papers demonstrating against Lady
jerseys narrowness.

Advice to Young writers.

Don't give up your occupation, from
which you derive regular income, until
you are sure that were you to give your
whole time to writing you could produce
enough articles, and articles of the proper
kind and quality, to bring to bring to you
cash returns large enough to supply such
wants as you believe must be filled Until
that time comes-and when it does come
you can tell much better than keep on
writing, reading and thinking. Accumu-
late all the ideas you can. Accumulate
all the articles you cannot sell, and ac-
cumulate all the customers you can. Do
your writing early in the morning when
ever possible, and always keep your eyes
on the future.
This last is very important in oneEpar-
ticular that | am afraid young writer's
TOO often neglect. You must expect what
seems curt and often harsh treatment
from editors. Take this always as a mat
ter of course, as one of the crosses of the
profession, and never lose your temper.
DO not allow your sensitiveness to put
you on bad terms with any editor. 1t is
like flying in the face of Providence. You
may forget what you considered an insult
at his hands, but he never forgets if YOU
resent it, and if, years after, you offer
him an article, it will most likely be re-
turned without regard to it's merits.
Never argue with a bull, a mad dog or
an editor.-C. M. Hammond in The
Writer.

RIDING ON A SHARK.
Thrilling Adventure OF Prof swan
son of SEQUEL point, Col


swimming Teacher swanson of the
Capitol bath-house at Sequel Point.
Col, treated the resorters there to a
thrilling spectacle the other day. His
feat was nothing less than an
exhibition ef bareback riding,
the burden bearer being a monster
shark, which was captured the same
day in the nets of a fisherman and
towed into the slip. Its arrival Gre
! ated great excitement among the
visitors at that resort No amount of
assuran on the part of the proprie-
I tors OF the hotels or the fishermen that
basl1ing sharks were not man-ea ers,
and that MANY had been caught with
no accident happening, could entirely
qulet the fears of the visitors,
and bathing was almost given up.
Some ocular demonstration of the
fact that basking shark was harm
less therefore became necessary.
Swimming Teacher Swanson of the
Capitola baths, then determined to give
an exhibition with the SHARK which
should convince the most timid, A
performance followed, the like of
which no man ever participated in be-
fore. Swanson put on bathing suit
and swan to the wharf where
the partially exhausted monster lay,
still partly wrapped in the torn and
tangled fishing nets. Slowly approach
ing the gasping vet enraged monster,
whale in size if not in species, Swan
son swan close to his side and then
am bered slowly on top, moderately
easy task to accomplish, as
the shark lay almost entirely
under water Sitting astride the
huge fish like a baby on an ele-
Plant, the bold swimmer shouted in
triumphant derision at the several
hundred people on the wharf, who had
gathered to witness the strange per-
Torrance.
As soon as the shark had realized it
had gath red something on his back it
commenced to thrash about and threw
Swanson off. Women in the crowd
shrieked in fear and men held their
breath in excitement. 1t was hardly
a minute, however, before Swan
son appeared uniniured and
laughing outside of the line of foam
caused by the sharks struggles. The
undaunted swimmer again went to the
side of the shark and once more
mounted his marine steed. The
shark again showed its fear and anger
by shaking him off, but not so VIC
lently as before. With great persist
ence Swanson repeated the perform
ance till at last the shark became toll
erably tame. Daily exhibitions are

"For years there has existed in Dem
mark, said a well known lawyer in the
Hoffman house the other day, ''what are
called fOnligelsis kommissiOn, or courts of
conciliation,' which have worked to a
charm and are well worthy of imitation
everywhere, and especially in this coun-
try, where all our courts are crowded to
repletion with business. These are not
courts of arbitration, hut are conducted
on this plan: There is one Judge and two
assistants, none of whom are professionals,
but are taken from among citizens the
same as we take jurors, by consent of all
parties. Every case to be acted on must
be brought before these courts of concilia-
ton before it can be taken into a regular
court of law. The plaintiff comes without
counsel, none being allowed on either side,
and states his case plainly, and the de-
PENDANT is summoned to appear on a GER
tain day, either in person or by proxy,
otherwise he is fined if the case has to be
taken to law court. Then each party is
heard and questioned by the judge, who
tells them of the legal rights and duties
of each and gives advice or suggestions,
The parties are not obliged to take this,
but if they do, and agree to settle, the
Judgment is without appeal and final

FROM FRIDAYS DAILY.
THE NEW JAIL !!

The County Court made an order
Thursday for the erection of new Jail
building The Court gave the whole
week to the consideration of the sub
iect. and came to the conclusion that
the present Jail was not such Jail as
is contemplated and required by the
statutes. The plans offered were care
fully considered, and the opinion of
Messrs Harvey Cushwa, George Couch
man, Geo. w. Buxton, John Farrin
and other competent builders and
mechanics, was solicited The conclusion
arrived at was that the plans adopted
were safe and satisfactory and that it
was most advisable to sell the old build
ing and lot and accept an acre ofground
donated for the purpose by the Martins
burg Mining, manufacturing, and I'M
provement Co., to be selected to-day
in the western part of the town. Alto
gether it is a wise move, to the best
interest vi Tue lONlldllQ COUNTY anu w III
give with the new Court House two
fine additions to our public institutions.
The building is to be of brick, two and
one-half stories high, forty-four by
seventy-four feet, to be completed by
September IS, 1891 and, erected at a
cost of SIS, 600 The contract was secur-
ed by T. NJ Foutz, of the Van Dorm
Iron Works, Cleveland, Ohio.
The Court appointed A. C. Naden-
bousch, Esq, Deputy Clerk of the
County Court,-a good appointment
of competent young lawyer, who will
continue the practice OF law as hereto
fore.
The Van Dorm Iron Works have sub
contracted with Messrs. Tebo & Co.
for the carpenter work, and with Mr.
Geo. ". Buxton for the brick work of
the new jail, and will begin on the
new building soon.
Mr. R. Fink Mason is moving into
