we hs6rd 8 very sgtan8s noise Inside e him--a sort of grating sound. like boat being dragged over shingly beach
 ''So we set to and cut off his head and then ripped him up when, what dye think? What should we see, to our great astonishment and delight, but Bill and his father sitting upright like two Jonahs, the youngster turning the grind stone and the old man sharpening his knife. intending to out their way out Of the creature's belly.
 'tYou say said the old man was dead? Please don't interrupt me. and I'll tell you all about it.
 There's no doubt but what he seUm- ed dead, but 1t was only his blood froze with horror, and the shark warmed him to life again. What made him most un- comfortable. Bill said, was the slip peryness and topsy turvyness of the place, for there was no rest at all, for one minute he was standing on his head and the next on his feet, and then he would be tossed from one side to the other, sometimes getting jammed be- tween the ribs, and he wondered the meal didn't disagree with the fish itself.
 But at last came the climax, and Bill thought it was all over with him. for down its throat was shot a heavy body like that of sack of coal right atop of him, nearly smothering him, So that he had scarcely room to move or breathe. and he must have been some time insensible. he said, when he was woke up with loud report
 He thought for moment the orea- ture had swallowed 8 powder barrel and 1t had exploded, but it was only the bursting of the canvas shroud the old man was sewed up in, which had blown up like a paper bag.
 "The noise in it's inside, Bill said, must have astonished the shark, for he again found himself standing upon his head, so he knew it was making for ths surface. and on reaching there 1t opened its enormous jaws for air. when flood of light entered between the rows of teeth which enabled Bill on gaining his feet to take stock of his lodgings, and the very first thing that he saw was his old father crawling out from under the canvas like chick from it's shell.
 '.The old man had caught sight of the grindstone and soon put 1t into working order. and on the fish once more coming to the top and again ad- hitting light Bill at once saw what was in the wind. and they commenced business at once. when they were star tied by sudden change in the sharks movements, and soon they distinctly heard the sound of human voices, and they knew they were saved.
 Well, we all was so thankful at their miraculous escape from the jaws of death that every mothers son of us on board took our solemn afidavits that we'd never tell lie or anything of that kind again. and me and my mate have kept our words ever since. "-Chicago Times.

THROUGH my SECRETARY"
President Cleveland Deigns to Notice
Young Canton Democrats.

CANTON, O., Jan. 1S-Every year since
President Cleveland delivered his tariff re-
form message to Congress in 1887 the Young
Mems Democratic Club and it's friends have
met around the banquet board, and in
speeches and toasts lauded that message
and it's principles TO the skies. A very good
meal was provided at the low price of 81
a plate, good Democrats making up the
deficit, and usually the trouble has been TO
accommodate the crowds. This year, how
ever, the general depression was felt and
of the APO chairs provided around the ia
bles nearly one hundred were vacant. Pres
ident Cleveland did not send his customary
letter of regret, but instead the following
was received from Private Secretary Thur
Der:
1.-The President directs me to acknowledge
the receipt of your favor Of 18th inst, and &c
express his regret that his engagements are
such that t viii be impossible for him 60
attend the banquet 20 be given by the Young
Mems Democratic Club, of Canton, on The
18th of January. He appreciates the courage
and enthusiasm the club has always mani
tested, and begs leave to extend 10 II his OK
pressions of cordial regard"
Tom l.. Johnson wrote for himself ard MIR
Wilson could not come because the debate
on the Wilson DILL is on and Mr.. Wilson is

grets were received from Ex-Governor Camp

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Jan. 1S-The meet
ing in this city this morning to select
member of the Republican State central
committee for the Ninth congressional dis
trict was one of the most enthusiastic and
harmonious gatherings the party ever had
here. Each of the eight counties in the
district was largely represented. The
meeting was called to order by Secretary
]. A. Kautz, of Howard county, who
stated that Chairman c. c. Shirley was
unavoidably detained at him home being
engaged in a very important lawsuit. He
had hoped to be able to attend up to the last
moment but could not come. The COM
mittee on permanent organization, COM
posed OF one member from each county,
recommended that j. A. Kautz, of Koko-
mo. the secretary of the district commit
tee, should be chosen permanent chair
man and Charles E. Wilson, editor of the
Daily Courier, this city, permanent sec
rotary which was done. For State central
committeeman Benton county presented

TERRE HAUTE. Ind. Jan. 1s.-The Re-
publicans of the Eighth congressional dis
trict never evinced a more enthusiastic
spirit than in the convention held to-day to
select a district committeeman. The con-

taking the chair was the inspiring event of
the day. He was in good voice and never
more eloquent. When he said that he prayed
that he might live to take part in the presi-

Ex-Congressman Johnston was called on
for a speech and responded. Mr. Jacob d.
Farley, OF this city. as chairman of the
committee on resolutions. reported, in brief.
as follows: That the cry of the laboring
man of the country to-day is for work.
The tariff bill now before Congress may re-
suit in an increase OF employment for the
laboring man-abroad. The foreign policy of
Cleveland and Gresham is neither Demo
cratic Republican nor American. The adj
ministration of President Harrison was
pointed TO with pride in contrast with that
of Cleveland in the Hawaiian matter. The
Republican party was declared TO be the
friend of the Union soldier, and the rulings
of the Pension Department, inspired by
enmity, not love, of the war-scarred vet
eran.
Colonel Thompson called upon the dele
gates TO rise and hold up their right hands
and to bury the Democratic party in OBJ
livion." "And face downward cried a dele
gate from Vermillion county, whereat the
convention wildly cheered, while each dele
gate raised his right hand.
