PACIFIC FISHING INCIDENT.
Narrow Escape of Small Boats Party
from, :. Whales Mad Euxb

from Whales Mad Rush.
The theory that whales refuse TO at
tack men unless they themselves are
assailed is exploded A monster whale
not less than sixty feet In length made
. vicious charge at boat anchored off
Point Cavallo and badly frightened its
occupants. But for the GOODNESS of the
man who had the boat in charge the re-
suit might have been disastrous. The
boat, containing the fisherman and his
three children, was pulled to a point
about / 500 feet off Point Cayallo and
dropped anchor. The party were fish
ing industriously, when whale en-
tered the Golden Gate and speeded to-
ward them. The spectacle of the ami
NAL excited the curiosity of the young
er fisher folk but caused no alarm. Sud-
denly his whaleship caught sight of the
boat and he reared his majestic pro-
portions aloft until he seemed to tower
in the water like a six-story building
He was evidently getting his bearings,
and as he caught sight of the boat he
spouted fiercely. Then he sank with
q huge splash, and came up again and
dashed for the boat Happily, the aim
of the leviathan was bad, for In his
rush he missed the boat by some three
or four feet and passed on like whirl-
wind a considerable distance beyond.
The rapid passage of the whale with
half of his huge body above the water
line thrashed the water into minia-
ture tidal wave, which swung the boat
as though in an eddy and all but cap
sized 1t. The children screamed in
terror and gave themselves up for lost.
The fisherman did not lose his head,
however, and by judicious use of his
oars brought the boat about. and, mi
nus some fishing tackle which was
purloined by the whale In his passage,
he headed for the shore. The whale
turned as II to renew the attack, but,
apparently thinking better of 1t. he
tapped his fins and tail and dove out
of sight. Later he was seen off AL
catraz, where ne remained for an hour
or two observing the Notifications.
What became of him after that nobody
knows.-San Francisco Post.

There are two qualities of human

This accounts for a great many things

tended that war was the natural state
of man, and that the intervals of peace
were artificial situations, bad good

with these things as they are. il is
human and natural that such an affair
as that prize fight last week should
attract much attention. You cannot
help it. 1t was the event of it's hour.
Men and women stood for hours late at
night in the driving rain to find out how
the two brutes were pummeling each

than for the Charleston earthquake of

I'VE are not defending the brutal and
brutalizing business of prize fighting.
But, in detail. il has this advantage
over war: The innocent do not get
killed by it Ii probably causes little
suffering, as the brutes engaged in the
sport have every appearance of being
practically incapable of the finer feel

sensibility. 1t calls for no sympathy.
