A NAVIGATING OYSTER.
It Is Six Feet Long and Lies I'm Walt for
the Peari-Divers.


"Your wealthy ladies Of Chicago
who assemble at evening parties and
soirees in magnificent costumes COW
cred with fine pearls know little or
absolutely nothing, perhaps, about
the many dangers encountered in
gathering those pearls from the sea,
remarked j. G.. Danvers, Of London,
England, at the fremont House yes
terday, says the Chicago Herald.
81 was on trip along the coast Of
Zanzibar, Africa, year ago, when 1
learned that sea-pearl fishing is not
trade for men of weak hearts to fol-
low The pearls are gathered at the
bottom Of the sea by divers. The
reason a man with weak heart is not
fit for the work is because the stopped
breath and the pressure OF ninety feet
of sea water, with its weight of six
ty-two pounds TO the cubic foot will
bring on palpitation Of the heart and
burst the weaker vessels, causing
distressing and often dangerous hem
orrhages. But the divers are all stall
wart savages, in such rugged health
that the physical danger never occurs
TO them.
1.-TWO dangers constantly menace
the diver. Wherever the oyster
grows there also thrives the giant
tridachna, monstrous bivalve, whose
shell is from four to six feet in length,
firmly anchored to the bottom. 1t
lies with its scalloped shells yawning
foot or more apart. Immediately
anything touches it the shells snap
together, and once these large shells
are closed not dozen men out Of
water could get them apart, far less
the single diver, fifteen fathoms deep,
who may have dropped into the capa-
cious mouth or have carelessly put his
hand within its shells while cropping
I'm the gloom.
"If such fate befall diver there
is only one thing for him to do, and
that is TO amputate himself from the
enormous mollusk and rise TO the sur
face, fainting, bloody, and mangled.
Those savages will fight anything
from lion to python on land, but
they haven't the courage to run
against bivalYe under ninety feet OF
water and stand the chance Of those
yawning shells closing in on an arm
or leg and crushing the bones to
splinters.
If the mOnstrOus molluSk should
close down and catch the divers head,
of course he would never know what
killed him. His head would be
mashed to pulp, and it would go off
as if severed by guillotine. L saw
only one native who had been caught
by one Of these mollusks. 1t had
closed down on his left hand, and the
only thing he could do as the mon
ster held him in its grip was TO cut off
the left arm at the elbow joint"

Scotchman and 90 years old. He is
in perfect health and always has been,

Adams TO Ben Harrison, served i'm
the Black Hawk war under Lincoln
and with JEFF Davis, helped to or

He was a personal friend Of LincOln's,
saw him breathe his last, and was ac-

The Michigan Supreme Court Decides
that the Measure Is Constitutional.
The Michigan Supreme Court has rem
dered decision sustaining the constitu-
tionality OF the miner election law, which
was passed by the last Legislature. The
decision OF the court was unanimous.
Justice Montgomery wrote the opinion.
All the points RAISED by the petitioners are
fully discussed. The court declares that
the right of the Legislature to determine
the mode of choosing electors has been
firmly established in practice since the
adoption OF the constitution, and does not
seem to admit Of controversy. question
OF the construction of the language may
BE- reasonably raised; but it is clearly sus-
ceptible OF one comforting upon the Legis-
lature power TO say no. the states action
shall be voiced. 1t DOES not lie with any
court to assert that that right has been lost
to the State by non-user The court polit-
ically is three Republicans and two Demo-
Gratis. The Miner law was passed by the
last Legislature which was Democratic.
