SHARKS TAX EN OFF NEW YORK
Their Capture Said to Have Been 4
Regular Thing Prior to and
During Year 1915.

A shark nowadays even on the most
exposed beaches Of New York and the
metropolitan area is rarity and q
curiosity, but there was time when
these fish used to be caught OF Cath
arine slip, says the New York Sun,
This was about 1916, when the fishing
smacks and fish cars used to unload
and load of this wharf In the East
river and the dead fish thrown out into
the water used to attract the sharks.
An old man, Sam Way, a porter In
the old Catharine market, earned a
reputation as q master shark catcher.
SHARK around the Slip" was the
cry that was raised when q shark was
sighted of the pier and then Sam
would drop his broom and put out his
chain hook and soon would have the
giant fish struggling on the dock. He
is said to have hauled in as many as
seven in one day, some Of them four
teen feet long.
Devoe, the historian, tells an Incl
dent which is passed on herewith with
out confirmation:
Zone day Sam hooked big one and
he climbed into skin which lay tied
to the end Of the slip; the shark took
to pulling and broke loose the skin
with Sam in, and away he went down
the river at race-horse speed, nearly
as far as Red Hook before he tired
out, or Sam could hold him up. He,
however, mastered him and brought
him back, and Sam after that con-
cluded not to be run away with again.
So he stuck to the raft or dock when
he fshed for shark thereafter"

"EIGHT BELLS"

The death of the Rev Michael J. Byrne, late Catholic chaplain at the United States Penitentiary, Atlanta, Ga, on Monday strange as it may seem, brings back the picture of truly remarkable performance of the stage of over quarter of cen tury ago.
 Flight Bells" was the nautical name of the acrobatic pantomime which fairly startled the youthful and adult theater- goers in New York in the early nineties. Men and women of to- day may remember vaguely white faced men, swinging across the stage of old Niblo's theater, or the ancient Fourteenth Street theater, seemingly miraculously. They see again those powdered clowns darting through trick doorways, falling through the roofs of huts, chasing each other in and out through secret places cleverly arranged on the stage 10 bring dellght and wonder. In it's way Flight Bells" was masterpiece as great comedies, tragedies even, have been, filling it's place in the world as smiles and tears combine to make up life.
 The actors presenting this famous piece were the Byrne brothers. The child imagined there must have been fifty of them, so rapidly did they ap- pear and disappear on the stage be- fore their eyes. They came from Nor wich and they are still alive. The ad- vance agent of the production was the late Michael J. Byrne, afterwards priest, chaplain, now gone to solve the great mystery.
