ON A SHARKS RAck.
The ETan Who Stands Alone Among
Jockeys.

Joe Garcia Is perhaps the only man
I living who has ridden any distance on
1 the back Of a man eating shark, says
the San Francisco Chronicle. Joe was
at work for the Pacific Mail Company
at Panama and came to this city on
oae OF the company's steamers
Sharks of the man-eating variety
are plentiful at Panama and make no
bones Of scratching their backs against
boat when they feel that way. Joe
was going ashore in the company's
steam launch one day. and before the
boat had got half way TO the landing a
l2-foot shark was observed swimming
alongside the craft Garcia tried to
drive the fierce brute away By throw
ing Jumps OF coal at him, but the big
fish took no notice Of the coal Garcia
then picked up chain hook lying in
the launch and waited for chance to
strike the shark. The hook had a
booklet on it and in order not to lose
the hook Joe slipped the beckett over
his hand, and inside of two seconds
was very sorry he had done so.
The big shark edged closer to the
launch and cast a longing look at joe
as be leaned over the side OF the beat
This was the chance Joe had been
looking for and he struck with all his
force at tho brute's head The sharp
hook penetrated the eye of the big
fish, and the next instant Joe went
over the side Of the boat like fash.
Maddened with pain the fierce tiger
OF the sea tore through the water at
q speed that threw the spray high in
the air and gave poor Joe no chance
to extricate his hand from the beckett.
Those in the launch at once gave
chase, but the fish darted hither aud
thither at a twenty-knot gait and
they had about as good chance to
catch 1t as they would have had to
capture comet The strain on the
mans arm was terrible. aud 1t seemed
Is If that member would be torn from
the socket owing to the great speed he
was being towed through the water
Luckily for Joe the brute kept on
top Of the water and at last blinded
no doubt by the sharp iron hook, it
dashed high and dry on the reef. drag
ging Garcia with it. As quickly as
possible the boat was brought along
side, and one of the men cut the
beckett but not before he had been
nearly stunned by blow from the
sharks tail Joe was nearly dead
from pain and was full OF water, but
he soon came to. His clothes were
torn of by the terrible rush through
the sea, and ne was badly scratched
by contact with the sharp rocks.
The shark was killed. and in its
stomach was found half bushel OF
partly digested bones shoe, and the
bowl OF pipe Garcia preserved the
backbone OF the big fish, and will
make a cane OF it to remind him of the
time when he rode shark around the
Bay of Panama.

-> rs soil E1hau .ibleY

The American agricu.turist practi-
cally says no. This IS how it arrives
at this conclusion: One foot In
depth Of a fairly good agricultural soil
contains 1000 pounds OF phosphoric
acid, 8, 900 pounds Of potash, rs, 900
poupds Of nitrogen and lime. mag
nesia, soda, chlorine, sulphur and
silica to afford food for all the crops
which these three clements can feed
per acre. After farmers, by careful
and skillful cultivation, have ex-
hausted all this great store of plant
feed in the uppcrmo5t foot Of this soil,
which will require several centuries,
will the soil be exhausted Not at all
AS the lana IL gradually changed INTO
vegetable growth and the surface is
removed as farm crops, as it gradual
ly deepens, the subsoil which con-
tains tho very same elements becomes
fitted for plant food And thus the
imperishable nature OF matter applies
to the soil, which can never be ex-
hausted during all the ages which are
to come. All that mankind has to do
is to use its arts. under the instruc-
ton Of science. TO develop this latent
fertility OF the soil, and TO go on feed
ing the human race until the end, II
an end ever shall come, when the
earth will no longer exist as fit habi-
tatiOn for mankind"

Buttmann then took a pair Of sois-

the hair of his victim. Soon the work
was completed to his satisfaction but
the shaved man was horridej TO see
his disgraceful image in glass.
"sir, why in the deuce have you
