A SHARKS EYE.
The Effect Ii Had on the Skipper When

He Was Boy.
'Ever been mesmerized by fish,"
said the skipper. 'sNo? Well, |
have been many time. 1t was a
shark that did it.
81 don't know the scientific name
of this particular variety of shark.
but it abounds on the Nantucket
shoals. Full grown these sharks are
from eight to ten feet long and
weigh from 500 to 100 pounds.
They have a broad head with the
mouth well under it. They have
saw teeth, five rows of them, about
an inch and a half long, and they
can tlatten the lot and chew their
gums. But for a human being the
peril is in the eyes.
Il don't believe in man eating
sharks. believe that if shark is
in bloody water he gets excited and
will snap at anything he sees. but
let one of those fellows get his eye
on you and you don't know where
you are at
"Jhey have habit of coming up
alongside of your live boxes and
lying there while you fish. Then
when you get anything on your line

chance to pull.
