The Easkina Shark.

The fcrocity Of sharks is not
necessarily in proportion to Their
size. For example, there is the
great basking shark, so called be
cause Of its habit of lying notion
less at the surface Of the water. Ii
often atta!ns length OF nearly
forty feet, but its teeth are small
comparatively, and it probably nev-
er attacks man, depending upon
small fishes and crustacca for its
diet. Another name for this species
is 'sailfish,' because Of its great
back fin, which shows out of the
water like a sail when it is basking.
Although sluggish ordinarily and
easily harpooned, it exhibits great
activity and enormous strength
when struck, diving Immediately to
the bottom and requiring a great
length Of rope to hold it. These
basking sharks are caught for their
livers off the coast Of Iceland, and
the oil obtained is used to adultcr-
ate cod liver oil.

Mysterious k1i>>ture Makes Deer,
Wounded TO Death, Bold

Mysterious h1i~ture Makes Ceer, |
Wounded to Death, Bold.
Curari, The vegetable poison with
which the Indians OF the upper
Amazon tip their hunting ARROWS,
remains a mystery in its compost
ton after a hundred years of invcs-
tigation by scientists. The Indians
will sell it for its weight in silver.
but will not reveal the plants from
which it is derived. Not long ago a
professor in a German university
was sent to the Amazon wilderness
for the express purpose of discover
ing the secret, for curari, or urari,
as it is otherwise called, is now
thought to be Of great value in
medicine, The professor lived two
years in Indian villages, and, while
he was permitted to witness the
boiling Of the witches BROTH"
which lasted several days, he could
not tell what plants went into the
brew. Returning from his bal1lcd
quest down the Amazon with
quantity of the poison, the profess
or was met by another traveller,
Dewey Austin Cobb, who had got
possession Of native blowgun.
The latter tells in the National
Geographic Magazine how he put
some of the professors curari on
some of his blowgun arrows, which
arc like toothpicks feathcrcd with
cotton, and tried it on a buck deer
in the forest.
"Aftcr IL deliberate aiT our hunt
er fred" says Mr.. Cobb, eff may
use such a word for the little puff,
scarcely heard by us and entirely
inaudiblc above the rusting corn
leaves at the distance Of the deer.
The animal gave a slight start as it
felt the prick Of the arrow on its
flank and turned partly around,
shifting the air for scent and look
ing about as if searching for the in
sect that had bitten or stung it.
Detecting nothing, it stood still and
unalarmed. At the end of a minute
or minute and half at most its
head dropped little, as if it was
sleepy.
"We all approached its side, and
the hunter laid hand Oh it's Shout
der. 1t looked up at him, but show
ed no resentment or fear. Even its
breathing seemed easy and natural,
which surprised me, as l had heard
that death resulted from paral ysIs
of the lungs when caused by unari.
At the end Of ton minutes, though
it opened its eyes when touched, its
breath became shorter and slower.
Eighteen minutes after it was
struck by the arrow it WAS dead.

When Lord Curzon was at OK
ford he wrote an abominable hand.
One day he penncd two letters, one
of them to relative and one to a

relations, and accidentally put these
letters into the wrong envelopes.
He was about to write profound

Over ten thousand persons filed the

GOMPERSDENOUNCED.

1.-TWO years ago Samuel Gonpers went
to the back doors of the republican and
democratic parties and peddled the votes
of labor 10 the highest bidder. The Off
GERS OF the American FEEDER alton Of La
hor are traitors to the rank aud file, and
labor can never hope for any remedy
for til; ills from which they suffer
through the action of their leaders"
The foregoing denunciation of Presi-
dent Gompers, of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor, by Delegate c. L. Fur
man, of New York, raised a storm in
the Socialist Congress in Chicago on
Saturday. Gompers was further de-
nounced as the paid agent Of an organi-
cation OF capitalists under the name
National Civic Federation" The Ia
Dor president was accused of treachery
to his fellows and of being on the pay
roll OF the Civic Federation solsly for the
purpose OF enabling capital to control
labor through the "treachery Of leaders"
Dr. Furman continued: "When the
rank and file of street car workers in
Philadelphia forced the leaders to order
a strike the latter betrayed the men by
furnishing the traction companies with
electricians to provide power for the
cars The workers Of this country must
have unions. They should abandon the
craft union and segregated American
strike plans and adopt the "industrial-
ism and general strike Methods" that
are successful in Europe. No one stands
more in the way of such progressive
ideas than Samuel Gompers, reactionary
and nonpro2ressive."
Not voice was raised in Gompers'
defence.
