KEY WEST, Oct. 27.-One Of the amuse-
ments OF the idlers who thronR the wharf
here is catching sharks. think the yorac-
ity of shark has been greatly exagser-
ated. Those l have seen and caught off
Florida and Cuba were not the savage ami
mails we read about There are fish in the
sea that dread much mere.
We captured our first shark at midnight
of Sand Key. eight miles from Key West.
The mosquitoes, with which the hold was
swarming, would not let US sleep. The
moon was family shining, and We indus
triously promenaded the deck, racing with
the insect pests. One OF the boys leaned
over the rail, and in the cieay water below
he saw the dark outline of a huge fish. A
second later the unmistaksble fin of a
shark glanced above the surface two rods
away. We stuck piece OF pork on a
shark hook, attached strong line and
threw the lure overheard A billet of weod
held the bait within three feet of the top OF
the water in plain sight. The shark was
not far away, for at the splash he swan
slowly up, nosed the pork and then circled
it several times He was in no hurry for
. meal and evidently was suspicious.

Slopsur shoulders in style.

When the whistling winds of Novem-
Der call for capes we shall see the slop-
ing shoulder once more queen OF
fashion. The shawl-like effect is to be
introduced again. so good-by to the
athletic tailor-made shoulder, square
set and Minerva-like. The newest
bodices have shoulder seams five and a
half inches long, and ali the trimming
falls from line over the point of the
shoulder. which adds to the sloping eff

The return to Boston from Califor-
MIA of A. f. GoSs, the first instructor OF
the city truant school on Deer island,

roism by which he saved the lives OF

great storm of April, 1851, which de-
molished the old Minots ledge light
house and washed the truant school
building out to sea- Mr. GoSs' rescue
of the bows was most hazardous. and
his bravery and coolness on that night
won the thanks of the city. through
