An EmperOr'S Fury.

On one occasion during parade Of
his horse guards the Emperor ? aul of
Russia was extremely dissatisfied with
the manner in which the troops per-
formed their evolutions. At length,
after more than ordinarily stupid
blunder on the part Of the troops, the
car could stand it no longer, and he
determined to preside over the drill
in person. The troops were well aware
that the czar's temper was on the
verge of bubbling over, and the knowl-
edge 60 unnerved then that things
went from bad to worse until at last
blunder supervened-a blunder in
which officers and men shared alike
which proved the climax.
Galloping up to the disorganized
lines and refining up his charger at
their head, livjd with fury which he
no longer attempted to suppress, Paul
gave vent to the following original
and effective speech: "Oficers and
troopers of the Imperial horse guards,
right about face Quick-march-to
Siberia j.
The entire regiment, with unbroken
composure and dignity. wheeled to the
right and etarted off then and there
upon their terrible march into exile.
By the time they had arrived at
point lying some few days march from
the capital, the czar's temper having
cooled down, swift couriers were dis
patched after the eziled guards with
news of the imperial clemencY, and
the troops were allowed to return.

Hawaiian Shark Fishers.

1t appears that the Ha wsiisn chiefs
of some years ago were much ad-
dicted to the use of human flesh as
bait for sharks. 1t came cheaper
than pig, was equally acceptable to
the shark and gave the chief an op-
portunity to kill any one whom he
disliked. The victim was cut up and
left to decompose for two or three
days in a receptacle. Kamehame l
was a great shark hunter and kept
those of his victims who were intend
ed for bait penned up near the great
temple of MoOkini
Mrs. Becky gives particularly
interesting account OF another method
of capturing the huge nluhi, or man
eating shsrs, followed by the natives.
They first of all captured a large num-
Der of the small common shark, saved
their livers with portion of the flesh,
wrapped them IN kl leaves and baked
them underground. From fifty TO Il
hundred canoes were loaded with the
baked meat and large quantities OF the
pounded roots OF ava, mixed with
little water and contained in large
gourds. The fleet would sail many
miles out to sea In the direction IN
which the uiuhl Is known to appear.
Arrived at a comparatively shallow
place, the canoe containing the head
fisherman and the priest and the sor-
cerer, who was supposed TO be indis-
pensable, would cast anchor. Meat
and a baked liver would be thrown
overheard, few bundles 1T time, to
attract sharks. After a few days the
grease and scent of cooked meats
would spread through the water many
miles in radius. The niuhI would al
most always make It's appearance al
ter the third or fourth day, when bun
dies OF the baked meat were thrown
to it as fast ss 1t could swallow them.
Alter awhile it would become compar-
atively tame and would come up to
one or the other Of the canoes 10 be
fed. Bundles Of the liver with the
pounded ava would then be gwen it,
and it would become not only satia-
ted, but also stupefed with ava.
A moose was then slipped over its
head, and the feet raised anchor and
set sail for home, the shark following,
a willing prisoner, and the occupants
of the nearest canoes being careful to
feed it upon the same mixture from
time to time. 1t was led right into
shallow water until it was stranded
and then killed. Every part Of the
bones and skin was supposed to con-
fer uDhinching bravery upon the pos
SCISSOR, and the actual captor-that is,
the one who slipped the moose over
the niuhi's head-would also eyer af-
ter be always victorious.

alone to drive the natives from the
guns.
OF the fifteen mounted cannon not
more than three were fred more than
once. The big shells from the fight
ing ships knocked the earthwOrks to
pieces and dismounted the guns, and
the rife FIRE moved the defenders
dow by the score. The men-of-war
sailed up to the city without a halt
and with only three men killed, and,
anchoring in front Of the capital, they
knocked it into smithereens within
half an hour. What huts were not
knocked to pieces we're reduced to
ashes in the confagation.
The natives did not run away like
towards. On the contrary, they
fought in the way to compel admira'
tion and yet without show. When
flesh and blood could stand it no long
er they broke and fed, and the VIC
tors landed and finished the chapter.
1t was three days before Oyampoo
could be induced to come forward
and take little fatherly advice. He
had lost his kingdom, his capital and
his armament, and he had had 800
of his army killed. He was told what
would be expected of him in the fu-
ture, and his written declaration was
taken that he would forever bear al
legiance to the British crown.
In three short days he was reduced
from boastful and powerful ruler to
contrite and badly frightened SUBJ
ject, and the lesson was one he never
forgot. Two years later he was pick
ing up shells at Cape Coast and sell
ing them to traders for living, and
when he happened to get in the way
of white man he was kicked aside
like an old shoe.

An Ocean Eni gma.

Undoubtedly the most extraordinary
of all the mysteries ofthe sea is the
fate Of the crew Of the ship Marie
Celeste, a more fantastic, creation ap-
parently than novelist ever wOve. She
left New York in 1887 for Europe,
her personnel being thirteen, includ-
ing the captains wife and child. Two
weeks later a British bark sighted
her in the Atlantic. There was no
sign of life on board. A boat was
sent to her, and a most exhaustive
search proved her to be as silent ss
the tomb. as deserted as pesthouse.
Everything was in it's place, even the
boats at the davits. The hull was
undamaged, the cargo untouched.
Rigging and spars were intact; the
sails were all set. The crews weekly
wash hung above the forecastle an
awning covered the poop. Binnacle
and wheel and rudder were complete.
The sailors kits and dinners were seen
in the forecastle. In the cabin was a
sewing machine, with a child's gar
ment under the needle, and on the
table half eaten meal. The chro-
nometer ticked undisturbed in the
chartroom the cash box was unrihed.
The logbook. posted to within forty.
eight hours Of the visit, showed the
passage to have been favorable the
ships appearance proved there had
been no storm. Evidences Of a strug-
gle or piracy or murder there were
none. Yet thirteen people had dis
appeared as if spirited away by some
supernatural agency, and from that
day to this the mystery has never been
unraveled, though the United States
government spared no effort to solve
it.
