Knives not in daily use should be
well polished and buried in a box Of
sawdust until required for use.
To render boots and shoes water

mutton suet around the edges of the
soles. Beeswax is just as eff1cacious.
Always empty out any water left

M EW YORK.-Harry Segal OF 107
~ East 115th street is living proof
OF the accepted theory that most men
who WELD facile pen do not express
their views so well orally and that
the extemporaneous speaker is not

Segal is a plumber, and he did well
in the written examination before the
examining board of plumbers for his
certificate OF competency. But there
were seven other candidates who did
exactly as well as Segal; in fact, in
the same language, which caused the
board to investigate. The result was
that they and the commissioners of
accounts, who took part in the inves-
tgation, believed fraud had been per-
petrated by the eight whose answers
to the questions were the same.
II was decided that either some one
had impersonated Segal or else he
had list OF the questions asked him
before the examination. The certifi-
cate granted to Segal was revoked.
He applied to the supreme court fer

2S.FOOT SHARK IS
KILLED At LAST
"San lose Joe" Swallowed a
Stick of Dynamite.
SAILORS TERROR
During Its Lifetime Estimates Of Its
Length Were az High as Forty
Feet-Had Roamed the Coast From
Panama to Frisco.

Los Angeles, Cal.-San Jose Joe is
dead. This may not be of vast impor-
lance to residents of New York, but II
is the best bit OF news sailors on the
west coast of Central America and Cal
ifornia, between Panama and San
Francisco, have heard in many years.
For San Jose was a shark fully TWEEN
ty-eight feet in length in death, al
though guesses about his size in life
ranged from what he really was up to
forty feet
The news of Joe's death was brought
to this country by an officer who has
been many years in the employ of big
steamship company
Joe's home port was San Jose de
Guatelamala, and his cruising ground
from Champerico on the north to San
Juan del Sur on the south All that
came to his NAV on that long stretch
Of coast was legitimate prey. Accord
ing to sailors who dreaded him, any
one of their number who happened to
fall overheard when the shark was
near had little chance of eyer again
walking a deck. In fact, everything
that fell within reach of San Jose Joe
belonged to him by right of might, and
it was this greediness that finally cost
him his life.
At San Jose the succulent red snap
per abounds, and every captain that
makes call at the place gets at least
one mess. Some do it one way, some
aRother, but the captain that unwit-
tingly caused Joe's death had an or
iginal scheme all his own.
Dynamite vas what he relied on.
He had sticks of the explosive about
two inches in length and of the cir
conference of lead pencil. To these
a time fuse was attached, and when
the snappers, hundreds of them. gath
cred close to his vessel after a meal
and the leavings were dumped over
board, he would throw one into the
very center OF the school.
The explosion that speedily follow
ed caused a concussion that stunned
the fish and caused them to float on
top Of the water as though dead.
Then it was an easy matter to put
of from the vessel in a small boat
and with net dip up as many as de-
sired. OF course, this was not sports
manlike, but it was highly satisfactory
to lot of hungry sailors.
At the time Joe died the snappers
were there-sO was the captafur So
was the dynamite and so were the
sailors.
1t was soon after breakfast. The
explosive had been thrown overheard
and all hands were waiting for the
result. Suddenly there was a great
commotion in the water, a scurrying
of the snappers in every direction,
and directly on the port gangway ap-
peared Joe, his little eyes hungrily
watching the sailors lining the rail
With a swish of his tail he turned

a writ of mandamus directing the e&-
aiming board of plumbers to return
the certificate to him. Justice Hen
drick denied the application.
Segal was called on when the board
first became suspicious to repeat oral
ly some of the things he wrote in his
first examination. First he was asked
about certain words that appeared on
his examination paper. Diameter ap-
peared as "diametar" in the original
examination, and on the oral try Sc
gal spelled it "deamete." Friction.
which he got right the first time, ap-
peared the second time as Erickson.
Segal explained that his answers
to questions were based on his read
ing books on the subject. An exam
liner of the examining board of plumb
ers looked over the books, but could
find nothing that related to the sub
ject on which Segal was examined.
Here are some of the questions put
to Segal by the commissioners OF &C
