PACING STARS MAY MEET.
Mart Demarest Wants to Take a Shy
at Dan Patch.

Advices from Hot Springs are to the
effect that a hot series of match races
may be seen on the Grand Circuit this
summer between the stars of the PAGERS
Mart Demarest. the owner of that re
liable PAGER, Prince Alert, IS more than
anxious to take on the unbeaten Dan
Patch for a race, with a big bundle Of
money as a side bet. Demarest is very
sweet on the Prince, and thinks that
there is no PAGER in the world as game
as his. What makes it look as if the
Prince had a chance to beat the pacing
marvel is that the Demarest horse paced
a mile with ease at Memphis in 200 di-
rectly after Dan Patch had gone in
2.00A in an effort to beat the worlds
record.
Last season Prince Alert won three
match races from Anaconda, and De-
marest thinks he can give the same dose
TO Dan Patch.
Should the match be made 1t would at
tract as much attention as any of the
Cresceus match races did, and, no doubt,
the trOtting tracks would bid high to
secure the match race as an attraction.

Houghton, Mich., March 10.-While
blazing d trail to a homestead on Elm
river c. H. Demary and Charles Blu

meeting nearly ended fatally for
Demary. Demary ran upon the lair

ran with the bear close at his heels for
a quarter Of mile
Despite Demary's struggles the bear
got him down and started to make a
meal of him. Buchanan, in answer to
shouts came up and belabored the bear
with an axe. Bruin then turned tall
leaving his victim unconscious with a
broken arm and severely lacerated
shoulder.
Buchanan helped his companion
back to camp and summoned ply
sicians. He afterward went after the
bear with a rife and, following the
trail for two miles, came up with the
animal and shot it.

says it is rare there now. The h3nmerhead by

SHARKS NEAR NEW-YORK.
Many Species Found, but the Man
eater Is Exceedingly Rare.

Every now and then somebody raises the
question whether sharks are ever seen near
New-York Harbor. Occasionally the possibility
is narrowed down to man-eaters, in recogni-
fion of the fact that there is more than one
kind of fish to which the name shark" is ap-
plicabIe. That is a sensible way to put the mat
ter; for it appears from recent report Of the
New-York State Museum that no less than six
teen species have been identified near Long
Island and presumably these also occur with
equal frequency on the New-Jersey coast Fort
unately most of them are exceedingly rare,
will be shown presently. and those which are
common are practically harmless so far as hu-
man life is concerned.
Probably the best known species in this
vicinity is the dog shark Smooth" dogfsh.
also known as the hOundfish. Its length is about
three feet and it has a high dorsal fin which,
like a part Of its tail, will often be seen stick
ing out Of the water when the fish is cruising
along near the surface. The dog shark is ashen
gray above and whitish below. II makes no end
of trouble for anglers after midsummer. It ap-
