The Democrats Of New Haven who
are looking for somebody who will be
a candidate for mayor don't have good
luck. Mr.. Henry B. Sargent has been
earnestly besought to be the victim, but
this is his ultimatum: You can say
that would not take the nomination
for mayor. have said so several times,
but for some reason those TO whom /
have said it evidently did not think ]
was in earnest. I am not a candidate
for mayor and 1 would not take the
nomination. There is nothing moro
that can say. / am not in politics. u
This is a declination that declines. Mr.,
Sargent is straightforward man and
means what he says. If he could be
induced to be the candidate he would
be a strong one and would get many
non-partisan votes. But he is too busy
and has no itching for such fame as
may be acquired by running for of
flee. Meanwhile Mr.. Walter Leigh is
apparently not eluding the searchers OF
declining to be considered. He has led
forlorn hopes in politics before and
would doubtless be ready to lead one
more. He likes the political game and
knows how to play it. He would make
a good candidate, and would make a
good mayor if such thing as his cleo
ton should happen. The wise do not
suppose it would, but hope seems, tc
spring eternal in the Democratic breast
If it didn't, being a Democrat would be
sadder than it is. =.

SPIRIT work IN BOSTON.

As Boston is Boston there is no need
OF being surprised by the following,
from the Boston Herald: To what ex-
tent is business conducted in this city
and vicinity under the direction of spir-
its in another world? The question
seems pertinent in view of the recent
settling up Of a large estate here and the
qualification of an executor who is said
to have accepted his appointment with
the explicit understanding that the
business house which constituted the
chief asset of the estate should be run
under the direction of its departed head,
who, is declared to be in constant COM
munication with his surviving family.
Some criticism was raised against the
somewhat mysterious arrangement, but
this was soon quieted when the object
ors We're assured by eminent counsel
that the arrangement was by no means
uncommon and that the affairs Of nu-
merous business establishments in Bos-
ton are directed in this way.
/ If spirits are doing business in Bos-
ton they are doing something more SEN
sible and definite than they have been
reported to be doing in some other
places. The Herald ought to be more
definite about the matter, and let us
know all about it. If, spirits can do
business there is perhaps reason to
think that they can do it more success
fully than less clear beings. So it may
pay to have spirit direction If it can
ba had. 80 &

While the law strictly enforces financial
support to religion, it also provides that
the Church tax in any given parish
shall only be applied to the mainten-
ance of the church or churches in that
particular parish. The practice which
has arisen of late years, or granting aid
to Protestant churches in other coun-
tries, is illegal. so that the adninistra-
tive order now issued merely enforces
a law already existing. The real object
of it. however, is to prevent German
Protestant churches from sending con-
tributions to the Away from Rome"
movement in Austria. This movement
is not self-suppo3ting, because it never
was spontaneous Having been promoted
artificially for political purposes. Much
OF the money that has supported it has
come directly from Germany, and many
of the pastors in Bohemia are German
subjects. But the Prnssian law will not
suffice to cut off these contributions en-
tireIy, as it permits the ecclesiastical
councils to make external grants. up to
a certain amount, out of their own
property. Prussian money is still like
ly, therefore, to find its way to Protes-
tant pastors in Austria.

PRINCETOM LAKE.

Princeton is to have something she
needs, and that is an artificial lake. Mr.,
Carnegie is going to see that she has
it, and as he still has some money left,
there doesn't seem to be any doubt that
he can and will pay for it. 1t is only
going to cost him three hundred and
eighty-five thousand dollars. The con-
tract is said to have been let to an
engineering firm in New York, and
the work is to be completed in one
year. Mr.. Carnegie promised to pro-
vide the lake if the land to be over
flowed should be secured, and this pro-
vision having been agreed to, the lake
is as nearly assured as anything in the
future can be. The new lake is not
to be called after Mr., Carnegie. Its
name is to be Princeton Lake, and a
very appropriate name this is, for the
lake is to become part of the greater
Princeton University campus, as we'll
as a scenic feature of the town. "A
wide concrete road" we are told, will
be built along the Princeton side of the
lake, and landscape gardening will
beautify the university grounds, ex-
tending srorn the lakeside to the CAM
pus. Hereafter the Princeton
campus will probably grow in the d.
rection of the lake."
The new lake is to be three miles
long. It will be six hundred and fifty
feet wide. with deep channel three
hundred feet wide for distance of one
mile. The talk is that Princeton Uni
versity may take an interest in rowing
when she has her lake.

HAWAIIAN SHARK FISHERS,


1t appears that the Hawaiian chiefs
of some years ago were much addicted
to the use of human flesh as bait for
sharks. It came cheaper than pig, was
equally acceptable to the shark, and
gave the chief an opportunity to kill
any one whom he disliked. The victim
was cut up and left to decompose for
two or three days in a receptacle.
Kamehameha I. was great shark
hunter, and kept those of his victims
who were intended for bait penned up
near the great temple of Mookini. ID.
Mrs. Beckley gives a particularly in
teresting account Of another method Of
capturing the huge niuhi, or man-eat-
ing shark, followed by the natives.
They first OF all captured a large num-
Der Of the small common shark, saved
their livers with a portion of the flesh,
wrapped them in Xxi leaves and baked
them underground. From fifty to a
hundred canoes were loaded with the
baked meat and large quantities of the
pounded roots of ava, mixed with a
| little water and contained in. large
gourds. The fleet would sail many
miles out to sea in the direction in
which the niuhf is known to appear.
Arrived at a comparatively shallow
place, the canoe containing the head
fisherman and the priest and fle sor-
cerer, who was supposed to be indispen-
saple, would cast anchor; meat and the
baked liver would be thrown overheard,
a few bundles mt time, IT'D attract
sharks. After a few days the grease
and scent of cooked meats would spread
through the water many miles in radi-
us. The niuhi would almost always
make its appearance after the third or
fourth DAYS, when bundles Of the
baked meat were thrown to 1t as fast
as it could swallow them, After a
while it would become comparatively
tame, and would come up to one or 9th,
er of H.. canoes to be fed. Bundles OF
the liver with the pounded ava would
then be given it, and it would become
not only satiated. but also stupefied
with ava. sufg..~ L..
A moose was then slipped over its
head, and the fleet raised another an
Choir 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 mix
lfure 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
confer unfiinching bravery upon the
possessor, and the actual captor, that
is, the one who slipped the moose over
the niuhi's head. would also, ever after,
be always pictorious.--Forest and

Laugh That Comes with Years.


An old man, near the rivers brink,
Full tranquil in his teeming years,
Laughed out, as one who stops to think
And dwelIs upon some chord that
cheers.
His form was bent with age, and sere;
The. gulf lay wide 'twixt him and
birth: $780, il
And yet his laugh rang loud and clear
As from some new-found spring Of
mirth.
Before this wrinkled, merry wreck,
A youth, who heard the sound
Stopped short his fiery steed in check,
And long in wide-eyed wonder gazed
"old man." she said, "thy laughter
rings - s.....- .....
Upon my sad shield like a dart
What merry spirit in thee sings
That will not enter to my heart?

HAMB1rR4s ENTERPRISE.

| Hamburg has left behind in the total
amount Of its shipping interests every
other city on the globe with the single
exception of London. But Hamburg
has done. too. everything which enter
prise and wise foresight could to bring
this about. Hamburg has spent more
money than any other two harbors in
the world together during the last score
of years to- perfect her terminal facili-
ties. Her system of quays and docks
| and warehouses is the best in existence,
and the fifty-six million dollars laid out
on these improvements by her munich
pal authorities and her ship owners are
bringing rich fruit. All these improve
ments are made of durable material
stone and iron and steel-and are
equipped with hydraulic machinery,
with cranes. derricks and other hosting
apparatus, that are equal to any emer-
gency. In fact to-day hydraulic engi-
Ineers the world over goto Hamburg to
study these triumphs of professional
skill, as they formerly used to go to
London and to Liverpool. The water
front of Hamburg with, its miles of
model docks and quays, is a modern
marvel of practical genius, and may
stand for a fitting and eloquent type of
material progress in Germany. Ameri
can engineers are particularly struck
with the fact, on their first visit to
Hamburg. And another point: From
these harbor improvements Hamburg is
drawing a steady and eyer-increasing
revenue, a revenue equal to a very fine
rate of interest on the capital invested.
