SHARK ATTACKS BATHER.
FIremans Experience That Turned His
Hair From Black 70 White In q Day.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
The arrival OF the big steamer Arizonan
yesterday brought a narrowing tale OF a
battle between Frank Fonda, a member
OF the crew, and a shark In the waters at
Salina Cruz, in which the shark with its teeth
tore the forearm almost on the unfortunate
sailor. Three fingers were ground in the
massive jaws Of the big fish. while Fonda's
right foot was almost severed.
The trag edy occurred on q hot day while
the Ariyonan was lying at Sallna Cruz. About
forty members OF the crew went In bathing
among the breakers. Fonda's companions
observed him waving his arms wildly in the
air as II to beat of something and then sink
beneath the waves. They thought. however.
that he was playing the drowning joke and
laughed.
Soon the water where Fonda had been
swimming became dyed a blood red and the
mans companions secured q boat and put
out TO save him. As they approached the
spot where the blood oolored the water there
was a swish and the shark. coming to the
surface. rolled over. displaying its glttering
belly. In the jaws the men could plainly
see a piece Of FondA's foot. Two Of the men
beat the shark of with oars. and then diving
brought to the surface the mutilated body OF
the fireman.
He was taken ashore and was found to be
still living, A litter was made upon which
Fonda was placed and taken to the hospital.
He lie now at the hospital at SalinA Cruz fight
turned from a jet black to white. II lie ex-
pected. that he will lose his right foot and
several Of HE fingers. The shark measured
ton feet in length.

The game shall consist Of nine innings to
each side. when, should the number OF runs be
equal, the play shall be continued until a ma
jority Of runs. upon an equal number Of
innings. shall be declared. which shall con-
clude the game. An inning must be con-
cluded at the time the third hand Is out.
Substitutions OF players were not al
lowed except for sickness or injury after
the third inning Of the game. That would
be rough on present day pitchers who were
being hammered. Sermons and sage sug-
g~estions to ball players on the subject OF
decorum, physical condition and constant
application formed part OF the reading
matter OF the old guides, and there was
much sound advice therein contained.
There was advice for the scorer, too. He
should, withal, be a person of gentlemanly
~demeanor." That still holds.
Scoring appears to have been a more in
tricate matter then than now. There were
too many complicated hieroglyphics forty
years ago. The best scorer is he who
makes the fewest marks, who does not trust
entirely 10 his notes. but who makes a mental
picture Of the game. his Ecore being Just
elaborate enough to help him out should he
find need TO consult il. Some OF the indi-
Gated plays in the old scores look like short

The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1907-10-31

A Des Moines man has discovered a
way of getting around the law which
would prevent the marriage of divorced
person within one year after the divorce
has been granted. He got an annulment
of marriage, and as the law says nothing
about annulment of marriage, of course
he is free to marry again whenever he
pleases. The law is ill-conceived and
ought to be repealed. The legislature
ought never to have given the bill
serious consideration. The people who
are divorced are practically in the sane
relation as if they had never been
married. They commit no wrong; if
they erred they have surely suffered
and paid the penalty for their error of
Judgment. But it seems ridiculous in
this twentieth century for legislature
to attempt to prevent marriage when
all the educational forces are working
in the opposite direction and the home
and the marriage ties are accepted as
the very best things in the country, as
the very basis of our civilization.

The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1907-10-31

A movement is on foot among the var
ious G. A. r. posts in Iowa toward hav-
ing the McCumber pension law, passed
last February, amended so that old SOL
diers who have reached the age of IS
years will receive $40. The law puts
the age at IS years. The argument is
made that comparatively few soldiers
who saw much service will derive bene-
fit from the rs year clause, statisticians
claiming that any man who served in
the war any length of time had ten
years taken from his life. The McCum-
Der law provides that soldiers who
served for period of ninety days or
longer shall, at the age of 81, receive
$12, at IS, SIS, and at rs or over, $50.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1907-10-31

According to official reports filed with
the state railroad commission the pas
senger revenues of the Iowa railroads
have increased about twenty per cent
during 1907 over the previous year. 1t
is certain that a part of the increase is
due to the anti-pass law and the two
cent fare law although these laws have
been in effect during only part of the
present year. There is nothing in the
showing made that indicates that the
railroads will be injured by the two cent
fare law in this state and the probability
is that the law will not even be attacked
SO far as Iowa is concerned. The Bur
lingtons passenger earnings increased
S227, 1000, the Rock Islands S57 900, the
Northwestern $452,000, the Illinois Cen
trial $4,000, the Iowa Central $4,000,
the Omaha, $4,000, the Minneapolis &
st. Louis $4,000. The two cent fare
law has not been in operation long
enough to effectively test it, but there
is reason to believe that the railroads
will have no sufficient grounds for dis
satisfaction with it, in Iowa, whatever
NAV be the result in Nebraska, Missouri
and some of the other states.
