CAPTURED A SHARK
That Required Eight Men to Raise
Out of the Water.

Annapolis Special to Baltimore Sun.
Ever since the publication in the Sun
a. week ago of the arrival of several
sharks in Annapolis harbor Capt. w.
H. Burtis has been on the lookout to
make a capture and has at last sue
ceeding in harpooning a shark which
measured 914 feet long and weighs over
800 pounds. Capt. BurtiS considers his
prize valuable because the shark has
double rows of well-formed teeth,
which is unusual.
Capt. Burtis said his attention had
been attracted to the shark shortly
then off Martins wharf, a short dis
tance from his boat house, foot of
Prince George street. He Immediately
secured a rowboat and a harpoon,
line. The. shark, frightened by the
noise of the boat, made detour, but
Capt. Burtis, who is an experienced
man in the business, plunged the har-
it two feet from the tail. 1t did not
live long. The captor said: "After 1
plunged the spear in the shark, which
was four feet away, it disappeared:
realized that l was being towed by the
shark which 1 had penetrated with the
harpoon.
II knew that the blow 1 had struck
had taken effect, and I did not in the
least fear danger from the shark,
| which was rapidly, towing me toward
| Greenberry Point, nearly. two miles
out of my course. The shark, appar-
| emily anxious for freedom, struck out
| in all points of the compass, and the
twisting and turning of the boat at
| times kept me uneasy for it's safety,
especially as 1 had tied the rope at
tached to the harpoon to barrel
which had become fastened under the
seat; The barrel had been placed in
the boat as buoy to the line. 1t re-
quired five boats, including q sloop,
to tow the shark to Annapolis. 1t was
SO heavy that the combined efforts of
elght men were just able to raise the
snark from the water to the wharf"

New York Doctor Furnishes the
First Established Case in This
Country.
NEW YORK, Sept. S.-For the first
this country has a complete chain of
inoculation from cancer been estab-
lished in the case of DIR. Edward w.
Burnette, of lis West Thirty-fourth
street, who now lies at deaths door.
The woman from whom he received
the disease, as the result of a rather
careless act after treating her case,
is also dying from cancer. She called
upon DR.. Burnette last autumn, with
an irritation on the tongue. The
doctor applied nitrate of silver with
his finger. Some time later he shaved
himself, and in doing so scratched his
left cheek. To stop the flow of blood
he applied powder with his finger
He noticed that the cut stung him
longer than usual, but he paid lit
tie attention to it. A swelling re-
suited from the scratch and cancer
developed. This woman in turn was
inoculated by using speaking tube
in the business house of a man
who has since died from cancer, and
who first had had his tongue cut
out. In every case the cancer was
of the same sort, known as large
cell sarcoma." DR.. Burnette has
been several times operated upon.

A woman,s Stock Farm.

Chicago Chronicle.
Probably the oldest breeding farm In
Kentucky is the. property of a woman,
Mrs. John M. Clay. She is sole pro-
prietor of the Ashland thoroughbred
stock farm, situated just outside the
city limits of Lexington: She is the
widow Of the late John M. Clay, son
of the great commoner, Henry Clay,
who founded the stock farm in 1880.
What the Duchess of Montrose has
been to England Mrs. Clay is to the
United States. Some of the very best
racing families in America first saw
the light of day at this celebrated
place.
Mr. Clay earned the title of "the Sir
Joseph HaWley of America" because
he was like that good Englishman in
keeping a very few mares, but these
were strictly first-class. 1t was his
Interchangeable opinion that broken
down race mares, no matter of what
renoWn, were not the best specimens
for the production of high class racers.
At the time of his death he left twelve
brood mares, descendants of Magnolia
and Margaret Wood, only a few Of
which had ever raced. Three of these
have since died, and Geneva, the dam
of Riley, was sold to Ed Corrigan
after that good son of Longfellow had
won about $4,000 for the master of
Hawthorne. Mrs. Clay evidently means
to follow the path laid out by her
husband, and have nothing but the
. best on her farm.
