Earnest Fernow was close beside me.
Suddenly, on turning a bend, we came

greatly alarm us.
"We had all been riding ut good
speed. This in itself would have
mattered little had each one of us had
our wheels under perfect control; but
timidity, carelessness or fright might
mean great danger.

SHARKS OF THE PACIFIC.

Huge, but Harmless Monsters That Have
~ No Teeth and Live on Devilfish.
In appearance the shark resembles a
whale, with it's enormous bulk, and
in the arrangement of its mouth and
gills carries out the idea. The teeth
of the fish are extremely fine, while its
throat is small and adopted to swal-
lowing the smallest objects, instead of
feeding upon fish and capturing its
prey after the manner of sharks in
general. This giant lives upon the
smallest of food-jelly fishes and mi
mute crustacea-to capture which it has
an arrangement on it's gills not unlike
whalebone, the food passing in the
large mouth and being caught in the
rows of whalebone-like material that
are attached to the gills.. For this
reason the fish is often called the
whale shark.
This big fish roans the California
coast from San francisco two hundred
miles down, rarely being found else
where and is nearly always caught in
the same manner-entangled in the
nets In the South Pacific and in the
Indian ocean a very similar shark is
found that rivals the California shark
in size. 1t is the rhinodon typicus, and
is usually caught by being entangled
in the seines, though often the natives
spear it for the oil, each shark produc-
ing several barrels. Very few large
specimens Of the fish have been caught,
and one of the last seen rose up
beneath a large boat near Ceylon,
sinking it and drowning the crew. A
specimen in the Colombo museum
measured twenty.three feet. Others
have been seen sixty and seventy feet
in length, dimensions attained only by
the largest whales, and making it
formidable object TO attack. g3g
1t is not generally known that less
than one hundred years ago huge hask-
ing sharks were common on the New
England coast, their capture consti-
tuting valuable industry. These fish
ran from thirty to fifty or more feet in
length, and produced seven or eight
barrels of oil apiece. The largest of
these sharks ever seen was caught by
the schooner Virgin. twas harpooned,
and was so large that it could not be

THE HARVEST MOON.

Beyond the hflltops, vague and dim,
Beyond the wide worlds utmost rim,
Flame sunsets golden bars.
While one by one in Heavens height,
The unseen guardians OF the night
Set their watchflres of stars.
The flelds grow dim and fade from sight.
Behind the purple veil OF night.
And all the world is hid.
A boding silence holds in thrau
All sound except the plaintive call
OF one lone katydid
Then comes breath of breeze that brings
A rustic as of Scraphs' wings,
Such as the dreamer hears; 4
And in the east, where day has birth, IS
Just where the heavens touch the earth,
The harvest moon appears. N
Fer since the stars-a countless throng-
At morning sang their wordless song,
When time had just begun,
The harvest moon has come to I'LL
With Joy the soul that boded i'll,
Because of summer gone
While stars shall glow, while rivers flow,
While winters come as summers go,
While men shall sigh or sing;
While time shall last, while mountains
stand,
The harvest moon to every land. ssas ~
Shall nights OF splendor bring.
Miller Purvis, in Womankind
