NARROW ESCAPE FROM A SHARK.
Big Fish Leaped Into a Boat After a
Plump Little Boy.
From ST. Nicholas.


The yellow fever was raging in the city of
Vera Cruz that year and one of the large
West Indian liners which arrived on GER
tain day was obliged to anchor off in the
harbor A small boat, known as a dingey,
foated astern and in this an active young
colored boy of about fifteen was busily at
work washing off the seats. The boat
lurched over with sudden dip as the boy
bore his weight on one of the thwarts, and
Pedro heard warning shout from the
steamers deck just in time to give one ter
knew only too well.
Without an instant's hesitation he jumped
overheard from the opposite side of the
boat. For as he looked he caught sight OF
the Jaws of a great shark which. spying this
tempting morsel of plump little boy, had
leaped toward the careened boat with open
mouth. So vigorous was the sharks leap
that Pedro went over one side of the
boat the shark Topped in at the other. Not
being used to these surroundings, and miss
ing his prey, he f1oundered around until his
head bore down the gunwale and he slid
from the careening boat into the sea again
before the people on the steamer could fling
a harpoon at him. Almost as he disap-
peared poor Pedro's head popped up on the
opposite side of the boat, and in a terrible
fright he clambered into the dingey again
as thoroughly scared a boy as ever had a
narrow escape.
Had he not thus saved himself from the
maneater help from the steamer would have
peen necessary and even then II is more
than probable that the boy would not have
been saved. This is a remarkable instance
OF the ferocity of a shark seeking his prev
out OF the water.

Tattooded Women.


Ihere are two sorts of tattooing In use
among the women of the Congo. One Is
common to all the members of the same
tribe and indicates the origin and birth
place of the subject. 1t is an infalible and
perpetual certificate of birth and nation
atty. The other sort of tattooing is sim
ply fantasy and coquetry. But among GER
tain. tribes there is a third kind. The wo-
men record upon their bodies the epochs of
their existence. A horizontal line marks
marriage oblique lines the birth of chill
dren, a vertical line weaving, another line
change of residence. Thus the autob!og-
raphy of the woman is written upon her
person and regarded with pride If It Is full
of events.

Alphabetical Cemetery.

The Metropolis cemetery, Glasgow as
originally planned, contained almost ex-
actly twenty-four acres available for bur-
ials, and 1t was suggested that each di-
vision of one acre should be named after
letter of the Greek alphabet. which con-
tains twenty-four characters. For various
reasons this idea has not been fully carried
out. but fifteen sections of the cemetery
have been so named from alpha to omega;
the monosyllabic letters between these be-
ing omitted The names have not been APP
piled in any particular sequence, but with
