The Shark Was Scared.

This shark story comes from the West
Indies: .s.,..Ns1i.;-, ~
IA large steamer" the diver relates,
"had struck on reef and then slipped off
into deep water, taking, down with her
the mails and valuable cargo. There
were some papers that were particularly
wanted, and l was in the chartroom under
the bridge working for them when sud
denly as I turned saw the wicked snout
of a big shark close to me- It was nice
fix to be pinned up in the corner Of little
square room with big brute between me
and the door, went creepy all over, I
can tell you But kept still, and so did
he, except that he worked fin lazily, like
a screw steamer holding on against the
tide. 1 got the knife in my belt loose and
waited. The shark evidently did not know
what to make of ME and gradually drifted
over to the other side of the room. / be-
gan then to move toward the door and had
almost reached it when the shark made a
sudden rush in the same direction-and
disappeared. Which Of US got the bigger
fright don't know. Good Words.

ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.z


Gray, August 25.-The barns of Mr..
Hewitt Mcguire, at North Gray, were
destroyed by fire, caused by stroke of
lightning. He lost eighty-five tons of hay
and fine horse. During the same
shower the house of Mr.. W. 6. Latin er
at Gray Corner received stroke which
did considerable damage to his parlor and
chamber overhead. MIR. Megquire's build
ings are insured by the Gray and New
Gloucester company Mr.. Latiner is
protected by the London Assurance.
Richmond, August 25.-A very heavy
thunder shower passed over this village
yesterday afternoon, followed by others of
less severity. During the first shower the
lightning struck a tree and dwelling
house in the village, without doing much
damage. A barn owned by Hather ly
Randall, on the county road, between
here and Richmond Corner was struck
and destroyed. Smoke from other burn
ing buildings in other places in this
vicinity was seen, from which reports
are not yet received.

TlMID ELEPHANTS.
stories Which Show How Easily the Big
Brutes Are Frightened.

An English writer Of Indian experience
declares that the vaunting of the intelli-
pence Of the elephant creates false i'm
preston. Like that OF the horse, the in
telligence OF the elephant has curious lin
itations.
A few months ago the populace Of
small town near Madras were frightened
out Of their wits by runaway elephant,
which broke from its mahouts control
and ran through the town, smashing ev-
erything that lay in it's path. 1t had been
frightened into state Of insane alarm by
the pattering Of raindrops on it's riders
umbrella.
A friend of the same writer once had q
singular experience of somewhat similar
sort. When tout in the district" in Bur-
ma, he grew tired of riding on his ele-
plant, which also carried his servants and
baggage, and bought pony in one of the
villages. He was carefuS'|to make sure
that the pony was not afraid of elephants,
but 1t never occurred to him that the ele-
plant might be afraid Of ponies
Early the next morning he sent his bag
gage and servants off on the elephant, with
orders to halt for lunch at village ten
miles away. and when he had finished
some work he followed on his pony. When
mile or so from the halting place, he
saw the elephant hunching along in ad-
vance and trotted on to hurry up the ma
hout AS he approached, the mahout, a
Burman, began to gesticulate. The Eng
lishman and his Bengal servants knew no
Burmese, and the Burman knew no
tongue but his own. He was much excited.
The Englishman guessed that something
was amiss, end. breaking into gallop to
see what 4 might be, was astonished to
see the elephant start off at run. Three
times the excited and angry mahout sue
ceeded in stopping the beast after run of
a mile or so and three times did the Eng
lishman ride up to see what was the mat
ter, only to observe with astonishment
that the elephant rushed off each time.
Finally the despairing mahout steered
the animal off the road into swampy
ground, and thus, shaking off pursuit,
plowed his way back on foot to the halt
ing place, where he found an interpreter
to explain that the elephant had been ter
rit1ed by the approach Of the pony.

Lodge Knights of Pythias Causes
Trouble.
Indianapolis, August 25.-The election
of the officers of the Supreme LODGE
knights of Pythias, did not take place
this morning. 1t is usual to elect officers
the third day of the biennial session, bup
it was objected to because of the investl-
cations that are now going on. There
were stormy times in the lodge room this
morning. Several appropriations that
usually went right through at former
meetings were either referred or voted
down.
A resolution was introduced that will
cut the expenses of the meeting of the
Supreme lodge one half. A resolution
was adopted discussing reports from the
officers as to supplies furnished and de.
claring that in the future such purchases
must be made by competitive bids.
An inquiry was also made as to the end
of the claim held by the Supreme lodge
against the City National bank of Fort
Worth, Texas.
A resolution was introduced to abolish
the supreme tribunal on the score of it's
cost, but the resolution was defeated. An
attempt will be made to reduce the mum.
ber of the mem bers of the supreme as
sembly uniform rank and a warm fight Is
expected over it. The sensation this
afternoon was the report of the estimates
of the finance committee. The committee
went at the salaries with an axe, and
chopped everything in sight. The COM
mittee recommended that the per diem of
the supreme representatives be reduced
from S5 and five cents mile each way to

Sailors Can't Swear.

The regulations of both the army and
navy forbid profanity, and any soldier OF
sailor who objects to being sworn at by
his superior officer may make complaint,
thereby subjecting the offending officer to
trial by court martial. Yet we have reason
to believe that such men as Washington,
Farragut and Grant could swear and did
swear upon occasion, and history furnishes
no record of their having been court mar
tailed on that account.
