HIS LIVER WEIGHED TWO TONS.
A Monster Shark That Was Captured on
the Coast OF Massachusetts.

1t is about big fish that I write,
but it is big story. ! saw the fish,
] took his dimensions by actual
measurement and saw the liver.
In the annals OF Cape Cod, pub
iished by the Rev. Mr.. Freeman in
1863, he mentions that in 1903 Prov
incetown had a regulation relating
10 the carcasses of whales, sharks,
horse mackerel, etc, which required
that they be towed below low water
mark, which would indicate that
these marine animals were so COM
mon as to be in some degree offen-
sive in warm weather. Many OF
them were captured for their oil.
Right whales yielded 20, 40, 80 and
sometimes 100 barrels; humpbacks,
Is to 20 barrels; grampus, 1, 2 or 3;
blackfish, barrel; sharks, from 1
&, hOn to or s barrels; porpoise, 2
gallons, and a boatload of dogfsh
yielded about barrel of oil.
Now my big fish was called a shark,
though he was not of the man eating
or shovel nosed variety. Mr.. n E.
Atwood, distinguished and practi-
cal ichthyologist of Provincetown,
pronounced the fish liver shark or
sea elephant and considered it rare.
The fish was almost entirely white,
and as handsome in form as a mack.
erel. He was caught in 1862, inside
of what is called Long Point, form
ing an outer boundary of Province
towns beautiful harbor.
The fishermen had spread their
seines there for mackerel and this
big fish had got entangled in them,
so that he was easily pulled to the
shore, where the tide left him high
and dry. Being at that time engaged
in business in Provincetown, was
invited to visit the monster and see
him cut up for the purpose of extract
ing his liver. BY the way, all the oil
of a shark is in his liver, while that
of whale, of course, is in his flesh,
or blubber. took rule and meas
ured this shark and found his length
to be just thirty one feet, the breadth
of his tail was seven feet, and his cir
conference in the thickest part six
teen feet.
The liver of this shark weighed two
tons, and this is how it was deter
mined: The liver was cut in pieces
and pitched into dory; the dory
carried a ton and half in weight be-
sides the rover, MS has been proved,
bringing her down to her upper
streak; the dory was twice loaded
deep with this liver, and so the fish
ermen thought the weight was near
ly three tons, but to be within
bounds | concluded to call it two
tons, and so it is recorded in this
veracious chronicle. After the oil
had been tried out | found that it
made seven barrels full, and was
worth at that time 5000 Belfast

The Sargasso sea, or floating masses

The Central Figure in a Celebrated Case

The Central Figure in a Celebrated Case
Mixed Up in Another Murder Mystery.
INDIANAPOLIS, Dec 14.-The Indianap-
oils police are searching for Mrs. Nancy
Glen, the central figure of the famous Glen
murder suit of 10 years ago. An investiga-
tion by the Coroner into the death of John
Martin prompts the demand for Mrs. Glenn.
Martin had an ailment in the foot and was
attended by female physician who gave
the name of Mrs. DR. Patterson. Martin
died under her treatment, and when it came
to securing burial permit, Mrs DR.. Pat
terson could not be found, and a coroner's s
investigation was the result, in which it was
developed that Martins death was the re-
suit Of the excessive use of an 'infallible"
cure.
This caused the officers to investigate the
identity Of Mrs. Patterson, and they dis
covered that she was none other than Mrs.
Glen, who has been living in retirement
here since her release from prison. 1t is
believed Mrs. Glenn has fled the country to
escape arrest.

A PREACHER In COURT
Rev. J. R. J. Milligan Sues the r. P.
Congregation for His Salary.
HECLAIMs THAT IT OWES HIM s525
A Nan Sued for Check Which Ee Claims
IsaE Eynd Forgery.
The GENERAL DOINGS OF THE COURTS

The suit of the Rev. J. r. J. Milligan
against the Reformed Presbyterian congre-
cation of Allegheny is on trial before Judge
Collier The case is brought to recover
S525 for three months salary claimed to be
due Mr. Milligan for services as pastor of
the defendant congregation.
Mr. Milligan was one of the Reformed
PRESBYTERIAN ministers who was suspended
bv the Reformed Presbyterian Presbytery
ior his part in the adoption of the famous
East End platform. lie eventually left the
Reformed Presbyterian Church and is now
pastor of the Ninth United Presbyterian
Church of Allegheny, having taken with
him majority of his old congregation.
The salary claimed by him is for the
three months in the spring of 1891 elaps ing
between the time of his suspension from
performing ministerial functions by the
Presbvterv and the confirmation by the
SYNOD of the action of the Presbytery, Mr..
NIiligan having appealed to the Synod.
The Board of Trustees of the congregation
had issued warrants for the payment of the
pastors salary for the three months in
question. When they were atterward pre-
sented for payment, the Treasurer refused
10 pay them.
Church Members in Attendance.
At the trial yesterday large number of
church people were present, including
ministers and members and ex-members of
the r. p Church. Major A. NJ. Brown ap-
pearei for the plaintiff and j. McF. Car
penter for the defense Major Brown called
no witnesses at first, establishing a prima
faria caSe hv Offering in evidence the undis-
puted portions of the plaintiffs statement
The defense moved for a non-suit, claiming
that no case had been made out, and that
Mr.. Miliran, having severed his connec-
tion with the church by his OWN act, was
not entitled to any salary for the time in
question.
Judge Collier, however, refused the mo-
tion and said the case would have to go to
the jury. The case then proceeded and the
facts of the suspension and for what reason,
the appeal and the action of the Synod
were testified to.
Still Performed His Duties.
The plaintiff also offered testimony to
show that during the time OF mis- suspension
and pending his appeal he continued in
office and performed work for the congre-
CATION. The first Sunday after his suspen-
sion he led the religious services, but did |
not preach. He also presided at the meet |
ings OF the elders and made arrangements |
for procuring ministers to preach during |
his suspension. The defense endeavored to |
show in cross-examination that majority |
OF the Board of Trustees and congregation |
afterwards went with Mr.. Milligan and |
formed a United Presbyterian congregation.
Judge Collier, however, ruled this out as
having no bearing on the matter at issue.
The case is still on trial
