SAN JOSE JOE.
A Monster Tiger Shark That Was Known
10 AII Sk.ppers Of he Pneilic Coast.

A Monster Tiger Shark That Was Known
10 All slippers Of he Paciiic Coast.
There is on exhibition in Stewart
street saloon in the shape Of a photo
graph ''all that is mortal of ''San jose
joe" San Jose Joe was in his lifetime
q shark, and was better known along
she coast from Guatemala to Panama
than any skipper sailing the Pacific,
and he was an object of general re-
spect, too.
The first known to the men who tell
fish stories, says the San Francisco
Daily Report is that he came into
prominence about fourteen years ago
by taking on a cargo of two natives,
who were enjoying the luxury of a sea
bath on the Guatemala coast. Like
''Old Brin, . the grizzly of the Sierras,
his reputation as a maneater increased
rapidly, and he was given credit for the
havoc wrought by all the sharks in the
district he infested ''Joe" had a certain
route which he worked" and it was
early noticed that his weather eye was
always open for a choice morsel with a
line attached to it. The expression ON
his countenance when the ships cook
would cast him a well-larded shank was
cdifying to behold. But he had a
human contempt for people who gave
donations with a string to them
Mariners on the west coast of Central
America, after experimenting with a
hook on tJoen for some time, at length
discarded that method of effecting his
capture and resorted to firearms. The
amount of lead Joe had fred into him
with all sorts of firearms no doubt
added to his weight, but it had no APP
probable effect on his buoyant spirits
or on his appetite for bathers and lone
row boats.
But about four months ago, as the
United States steamer Ranger was
lying in the harbor of San Jose de
Guatemala, the noted shark came
alongside and cast a hungry glance
toward the cook house. Capt. Rsiter
armed himself with a harpoon and
entered a dingy lying aft. He was SO
fortunate as to get an opportunity for
landing the harpoon in a vital spot;
and, in short order, the old shark, who
had terrorized the coast for 50 many
years, was lying an inert mass on the
calm waters. The carcass was har.led
on board and photographed. Measure
ments were then taken, and "Joe's''
body was weighed. His weight was
$500 pounds. He was twenty-six feet
eight inches in length, and was nine
feet three inches in circumference back
of the gills. 1t was found that the old
fellow had no teeth, probably owing to
his great age. He was a tiger shark
that is, spotted like a tiger. The natives
on the coast have breathed easier since
his timely taking off, and Capt. Reiter
is a very popular man down there,

A MOTHERS LOVE.
With Breaking Heart She Reads HeI
Daughters Funeral Service.

With Breaking Heart She Reads HeI
Daughters Funeral Service.
There was a simple funeral at Oak.
woods cemetery on recent Sunday,
says the Chicago Tribune. No priest
or minister was there to read the bur-
ial service only a heart-broken'
mother who saw her only daughter go
to her grave, while a man who had
been a stranger to both and the under
taker watched the silent grief as the
coffin was hidden under the clay.
Unfortunate Mamie Jennings, whose
body was taken from the lake off Hyde
Park Thanksgiving day, would have
gone to paupcr's grave but for the
kindness of ]. P. Luby, an operator on
the board of trade, who read the story
of the suicide and himself arranged for
Q respectable, Christian burial The
mother of the girl is without money
and, but for the aid of Mr.. Luby, who
had known neither, the girl would have
been buried by the county.
Mrs. Jennings claimed to have asked
Kendall Street Christian church, where
the girl attended services, to send a
minister to conduct the funeral. There
was no minister present, however, and
the mother, rather than see her daugh-
ter buried without religious observ-
ance, stood beside the coffin of her
daughter and read portion of the
eleventh chapter of the Gospel of ST.
John: HFor l am the resurrection and
the life. z" She read and there came
solemn amen from the two who looked
on in reverent silence.
Snow had covered the mounds of
earth about the new made grave and
headstones were half hidden by the
mantle of white Near by, long line
of carriages wound in and out among
the leaAess trees, following the hearse
containing the remains of daughter
whose life had been passed in the
midst of riches and of luxury Above
her grave were heaped beautiful
wreaths of flowers until the dark clay
was hidden and sorrowing friends
stood by and sought to soften the grief
of mother and father.
At the other grave the mother gave
one look across the snow and then
placed little bunch of faded forget
