A Fifteen-foot Shark In the Ohio.

A fresh water shark was one of the
curiosities seen by fishermen in Jeffer-
sonville Qnd.) harbor. For several days
the fish, which is estimated to be fifteen
feet in length and to weigh 500 pounds.
has destroyed great numbers Of perch.
buffalo and channel cat caught on trot-
line hooks. Wednesday morning the
shark nipped a twenty pound perch
which had been caught on one of the
hooks Of d trotline opposite the city, and
destroyed one half of the fish at the first
bite. Returning for the remainder it
swallowed the hook, and when an at
tempt was made by fisherman to run
the line the shark splashed the water
similar to the way a young whale would.
The shark is described as having
mouth like an alligator, teeth two
inches long, and nose resembling a
pugdog. Cor. st. Louis Globe Demo

The Crowd at Chicago.

Chicago has done we'll, and it is only
fair that the fact of nonextortion should
be recognized and universally known.
That oyerpressed hotels should raise
their prices was to have been expected.
but that they should have been as com
paratively moderate as they have is to
their credit. They have charged very
high rates, but they might have charged
and obtained rates very much higher
The chief e3tortion has been by the
hackmen, but i'll view of the fact that
there were a half dozen men after each
vehicle the excess may be very properly
set down to the fault of our common
nature.
What will be the fate of the people
who imagine it to be wise and desirable
to he here when the fair is first opened
imagination fails to paint. plgnitaries
correspondents and exhibitors must be
here when the doors are opened but il
is dollars to cents the fair will not be
here for Il good month thereafter, yet
experience warrants the prophecy that.
as half Of the million strangers came to
town to try AMI see dedicatory cereino-
MES. double that number will he here to
participate in the wild and comfGrtless

Selling Smoked Glass for the Eclipse.

selling Smoked Glass for the Eclipse.
Few citizens in Brooklyn had appar-
emily provided themselves with means for
viewing the recent eclipse. and when the
moon began to move across the suns
face there was e running hither and
thither for colored glasses in the bust
ness part of the city in the neighborhood
of the city hall. On one of the corners
a young man was heard to cry:
This way for your smoked glass!
Five cents apiecer
He was Immediately clad in Prince
Albert coat, fashionably cut trousers
new kid gloves and patent leather shoes.
while his head was surlnounted by a
glossy silk hat.
1t was not long before he had all the
business he could attend to and he
smoked bits of window glass over a
candle and passed them off like hot
cakes, his singular appearance height
ening his trade to remarkable degree
He was imperturbable when guyed by
the street arabs, and in short time his
pockets bulged with nickels.
After the man in the moon had kissed
farewell to the western limb of the sun
the young ylan kicked the candle into
the gutter and strolled around the cor
ner. He was seen to meet another
young man, who wore detected air.
and who proceeded to place sundry bills

Why the King of Greece Mourns.

The king of Greece has just lost little
dog which he came by in rather curl
Gus way. He was at some maneuvers
number of years ago, standing amid
his staff, when it suddenly made its APP
pearance, no one knew whence and
stationed itself at the kings feet. All
attempts to dislodge it were fruitless,
and it remained there until the end of
the review. When the king went to his
carriage the little dog walked in front
of him, las proud as Punch" with his
tail erect, and scrambled first into the
carriage before any one could say him
nay. Arrived at the palace he darted in
first, and insisted on remaining with the
king. His majesty, who is slightly super
stitious, said the dogs persistency was a
good omen: that at any rate he had one
faithful friend. and from that time for
ward it slept in his bedroom and scarce
ly ever left him. 1t was a most super
cilious little dog, and would never take
notice of any one except the king. whom
it seemed to idolize The dog died the
other day, much to the sorrow of its
master. - London Graphic.

Fair Play.

Mr.. EDITOR: The reactionary
newspapers of this city are clamor-
ing that the Provisional Govern
ment should publish to the world
the instructions given to its envoys
who have been sent to Washington.
This has not been done in the case
of any former embassy sent from
this country. 1t might as well be
demanded that the ex-Queen pub
fish the instructions given to Mr..
Neumann.
At the same time, the secretly
concocted Constitution which was
sprung upon the country on the
18th of January, is still carefully
concealed from the public. The
ex-Queen stated that she had "pre-
pared constitution in which the
rights of all have been regarded
one suited to the wishes of the
people"
If so, can it be that her advisers
are ashamed to allow it to be pub
lished, or fear that it may preju-
dice her cause abroad ?
A State-paper that has precipi-
tated a revolution is certainly Of
too great historical Importance to
be thus suppressed.
In the name of truth and justice,
let the original document, duly
attested, be given to the world by
its authors, whoever shey may be.
FAIR PLAY.

Ice Made with Gas.

A Canadian living at international
Bridge, Ont, makes remarkable an
nouncement. He has discovered IA meth
cd Of making artificial ice by the use of
common Illuminating gas. After use
the gas may be returned to the mains
uninjured as far as its illuminating
qualities are concerned, not being de-
Perforated in the least. Experiments
made at the gas plant at International
Bridge gave temperature of 80 dogs
below zero-this with the use of gas and
water alone, no chemicals of any kind
having been added to the soluti n st
Aouis Republic.

WITH AUTHORITY
PROCLAIM ALTON.

In the past the people of
Honolulu have been under
heavy burdens, because of the
high and uncalled for prices
charged for staple articles; the
protests of the community
passed UNDECIDED, and all eff
forts to produce a better state
of affairs failed. In conse-
quence the people were dis
tressed beyond measure. 1t is
evident that some move should
be made to equalize matters,
and give the community a
share of the profits heretofore
enjoyed by those who have
been instrumental in keeping
prices at high water mark.
Now, therefore +, NJ. S.
LEVY. in behalf of the public,
hereby announce that | have
established a store at Is Fort
street for the convenience of
all; and it is hereby pro-
claimed:
ALL HIGH prices are hereby
abolished.
ALL PERSONS interested in
this movement are requested
to call at once and enroll
themselves on my list of
customers.
The HOURS of enrolment
are between 7 A. NJ. and 5
P. NJ.

SURE BNOUGH-WHY SHOULD WEI

The best outline Of the currency sit
alton We have seen comes from the
Evansville Courier which is quoted by
the Washington Post.
"Why should we dance to England's
financial music, or to any other coun-
try's9" il asks.
We shouldn't. We have done so long
enough. And unless we adopt a dis
tinctiyely financial policy Of our own,
with an honest dollar at the bottom Of
It, we shall keep on dancing TO the same
old tune.
II, in the wisdom Of Congress, it shall
be deemed advisable TO perpetuase that
feature Of our protective legislation by
which the silver industry is TO be cod
died by the general government to the
neglect OF other staple industries, let it
at least be done upon basis Of good
faith to the people whose interests de-
pend upon the maintenance OF stability
in values
Let our legislators bear constantly in
mlad that although the amount OF gold
in the Treasury is relatively much
smaller than the amount Of silver, our
entire stock Of gold on the first Of July
was estimated by the Director Of the
Mint at 1864, 900, 600, and that OF silver
at s575, 900, 600. Evidently both metals
have rights that are entitled to consid-
Grafton.
The RELOCATION OF silver to merely
subsidiary uses may we'll be protested
against. Equally odious and obnoxious
is a policy that forces gold out Of circu-
lation aud into useless boarding places.
This is oae OF the most paralyzlng
forms of contraction TO the general
business Of the country. for the reason
Tint it is begotten Of distrust instead
Of necessity. II is not begotten Of a
gold policy, but Of an anti-gOld policy.
The first step towards an inter-
national bimetallic currency Is to as
sure she world that this country, in
place Of making silver monometalliSm
the basis Of its financial fabric, pro-
poses to draw for all the gold il needs
as final basis of redemption. Let
silver be given a fair and honest show,
but let our gold be unlocked and re-
lisved OF its scare. Let every form Of
our currency be protected against the
possibility Of depreciation, that all its
issues, whether Of gold, silver or paper,
may work together in harmony and on
parity.
II we would cease dancing to
European music aud compel Europe to
dance to dance to American music we
must have an American policy that the
world shall respect and none be able to
dishOnOr.

As the New York Commercial Aduer-
tiser points out, 70 is well TO note as We
20 along through the wilderness that
msnv of the business failures are OF
firms that have assets largely In excess
Of their liabilities. Perhaps half Of the
firms that 90 under are in this class,
while there are some that have assets
which more than double their liabilities.
In addition to large assets, many have
valuable contracts on hand and no In
debtsdness pressing for payment.
The whole trouble, in most cases. is an
inability TO obtain funds to meet cur
rent expenditures because money
senre prevails and capital has sought a
temporary hiding place TIL the clouds
roll by.
The condition Of such failing firms In
dicates that the country is not In bad
way. and under ordinary circumstances
,e houses that have been topping over
5uld have been going ahead, paying
air laborers and making a profit.
From so causeless a panic the business
the country may be expected to re-
YER rapidly.

The Chem Der Of Commerce last even
ing took favorable action on the proPo-
sltion to establish q clearing house In
Wheeling, and to-day the bankers will
meet and discuss the matter.
This subject has been canvassed BE-
fore By the Chamber Of Commerce, but
the need for clearing house was not
90 apparent then as 1t is now. Cities
doing a much smaller business than
wheeling have established them, and
they have proven valuable safeguards
40 these days when one oank-iailure In
q city usually means a general topple
and fan all along the line.
Aside from this feature, however
the clearing house is valuable aid to
banking Institutions and an indicator OF
value to both stockholders and deposit
tors.
The proposed clearing house should
be established without delay.

LIEUT.. W. c. P. MUIR
Designated by the Secretary of the Navy

Dest grated by the Secretary or the navy
as Linsly Instructor
Congressman John o. PeCdle'Jn yes
terday called upon Secretary OF the
Navy Herbert, and as result of his
visit Lieut.. w. c. p. Muir was detailed
as instructor at the Linsly Institute,
much 70 the qualification of Prof. Birch,
who accom- panied Congressman Pendle-
ton TO make fnal appeal to the Secre-
tary. This action on the part Of the
Secretary was good deal OF compli-
msnt TO the Llnsly Institute, and TO
Wheeling, for the reason that the naval
officers who have been acting as in
structors at educational institutions
were some time ago recalled from
that sort Of work and ordered 10
sea duty. Lieutenant Muir is the first
officer who has received detail
as an instructor since that time. Prof.
Birch is particularly pleased at secur-
ing Lieutenant Muir, who was his own
choice for the place. The Lieutenant
is about thirty-fve years OF age, and
has an excellent record. He is a grad
uate of the Naval War College, and has
been instructor in the torpedo service
and an assistant professor at the Naval
Academy at Annapolis. he stands
very high In the service, and has been
much in demand as an Instructor by
colleges. Lieutenant Muir is a Ken

THE PROPOSED NEW BANK

The fact that the manufacturers and

whose capital is represented in their
