counter With u sea Monster.
CHARLESTON, Oct. 16. - Captain +.
Domlnicb of q fishing smack, had a
fierce fight with an American whip sting
ray, or devil fish, near the Charleston
lightship.
Captain Dominick was fishing in quiet
waters and his lines were hanging
loosely from his boat. Suddenly there
was a vicious pull OF the line and whip
sting ray, weighing 1875 pounds, came to
the surface. The fish fought to get
away and somo of his flint teeth were
broken i'll the scramble. The tail began
whipping the mir as soon as it came from
the water and Captain Dominick threw
his hands TO his face for protection.
Selling n big knife lying in the boat he
severed the tail. This somewhat sub
dued the fish and in short time Cap.
tain Dominick had killed the monster.
