Angry Monster Bores a Hole IN the

In consequence of having been
rammed by a sworddsh, which appar.
emily was actuated by desire to
avenge an attack upon one of its
mates, the schooner Emily Cooney is
laid up for repairs at Gloucester, Mass.
Capt. Cooney was sailing his vessel
through the South channel when he
espiel three swordfish basking on the
surface, and he caused one Of them to
be speared.
Immediately another monster sword.
fish appeared, and after a terrific rush
Ut the vessel, leaped on the bowsprit
who welded the harpoon. Then it
dived, and again charging at the
schooner struck its bottom with such
force that the flsh's sword penetrated
the two-and-one-half-inch oak plank,
and foot of the blade was broken OF.
4 The vessel then began to leak, and
Capt. Cooney had to run for port.

Dayton Sells Out.

Friday morning E. E. Dayton re-
tired from the firm Of Day ton and
Harding, as BARRIERS, in this place,
Mr.. Harding purchasing his PAL tners
interests. This was done in order
that Mr.. Dayton might devote his
entire time to the restaurant bus
iuess which he recently acquired.
Mr.. Harding needs no introduction
from US and very little that we
would say would add to his repu-
tation as a first class barber and for
conducting his shop in the best pos
sible manner. He has employed
Bob" Norman to work at one
chair. He is also an old Worth
ington boy and spent number of
years with M. E. Fish as an appren
tice and when he left here to run
q shop in Murray county was con-
sidered good as the average. ~
Since then he has travelled consid-
cradle and was employed in one
of the best shops in Colorado.
Bob's many friends here will be
glad to see him again and this shop
will lose none of it's popularity.

Baby Whale Is Thriving.

A baby whale, two and one-half feet
in length, was washed ashore in the
breakers a few miles south of the Cliff
House recently, and was picked up by
C.. Baker. S. Roberts and George
Whistler. who were walking on the
beach. The little whale was lively and
in good condition, except for slight
bruise on the side of its head, and in
half an hour the young men had him
in receptacle filed with salt water.
The little fellow was brought to this
city, and thrived so we'll that in q
short time, to the amazerent Of his
captors, he had grown to length Of
nearly four feet. He Is one of the blue
species, and blows vigorously most Of
the time he Is thrashing around in
his tank. Seafaring men who looked
upon the little whale said they had
never seen 80 diminutive specimen
of his species before, but that he was
nevertheless a whale. His tail Is shape
ly and is already avoided by the young
men who have taken 1t upon them
selves to raise the embryo leviathan to
adult size.-San Francisco Chronicle
