Gilderdale recently, "is that he never will swallow a negro. .White men and most anything else he readily devours, but a colored man never. There's an old tradition among seamen about man-eating sharks. When one has been killed the sailors look in his belly for gold wntrhes and other valuables. You see; the shark swallows anything which comes in his way, and we used to lind all sorts of things in his maw. Once on board a steamer the crew had been killing beef, and threw overboard a hide and horns. Not long after the' caught a shark, and sure enough they found that he had tried to swallow the refuse. lie got the hide part way down, but couldn't get away with the horns. There was a scientific man on board, and he thought ho had discovered a new species of shark with horns. "I remember once when I was mate on a shin from Calcutta. We jworo becalmed, and I saw a shark .snoozing around the ship, so I slung over a line and hook with three or four Munds of pork on it. The beast didn't appear to be hungry and wouldn't bite, so I gave it up and went below. While I was down in my room the Captain sent word from the poop deck that the shark was close by the hook which I had left overboard. I picked up my rifle and went on deck. The fish was over twelve feet long, and was making for the hook, when I fired right into his mouth. He gave a flop over on his side and never moved a muscle. We lowered a boat, threw a painter around him, and hauled him in. The boys cut him open, and instead of the gold watches, they found a lot of young sharks the big one was a she shark, you see and I ordered the youngsters to bo counted and thrown into a barrel. Well, sir, that barrel was chuck full of man-eaters about ten inches long, and there were just seventy-one in all! That's a fact, and I can show you in ray log book the exact latitude and longitude where we killed the old one. The boys fried 'em and eat 'em, and found 'em pretty good, too. I saved out one, anil put him in alcohol, and gave him to the Gentlemen Anglers' Society." New Haven News. The March of the White Man. Among the little noticed but most important facts in the history of the world is the enormous recent in crease in the number of white men in it. It is barely two centuries (1GS3) since those races, though even then the most energetic of mankind, formed "but a small fraction in the total of humanity probably ton per cent of the whole and were by no means certain that they could defend themselves against the remainder. The white races in and out of Europe, under the influence of some still mysterious call upon their energies, have multiplied nearly threefold, and are to-day, as Mr. R. Giffen has shown in his recent address to the statistical society, 420,000,000. As there is no evidence of any corres ponding increase in the dark races, and as, indeed, such increase has been, outside India, nearly impossi ble, the white men are now, by thebest calculations, one-third of the entire population of the world, instead of being, as they were only two centu ries ago, a little more than ten per cent. They have, moreover, if any thing, increased in plrysical strength, and have so developed in brain and consequent power of organization, that it may be doubted if the whole remainder of mankind, even if all were reduced to equal weapons, could seriously injure the white third, which again, if it chose to act to gether and employ without pity the weapons its intelligence has enabled it to construct, could in a few years reduce the remainder of the world to an uninhabited desert. They have lately taken to conquering Africa, and are entering it at a hundred points at once; seizing, almost silently, certainly without serious effort, huge slices'like French Africa, South Africa, Madagascar, the vast valley of the Ni:er, and the still more extensive region drained by the system of rivers called the Congo. Nor is there much reason to believe that the process will soon be checked, for the white men are urged forward by an irresistible spur over which they have no control. The increase of the yellow race, which must once have been so incredibly fast, has stop ped, and thatof the dark races of India which for a century has been amaz ing, is being checked bv recurrent famines; but that of the "white peo ple goes on so fast that the transport of a hugelarray every year across the Atlantic makes no impression on their numbers, and at their present rate of increase they will in 1894 be a thousand millions, or much more than half of then existing mankind. London Spectator. The Preacher Who Logt the Race. A clergyman and a professional gambler had a bicycleracein Arizona. The pastor's congregation brought a charge of unseemly conduct against him, and he has" indignantly re signed. He says that it is folly to erect too high a standard of dignity in a border community ; and, moreover, he doesn't believe that the brethren would have complained but for the unfortunate Tact that he lost the race. lloxv Clay Was Taken Aback. The Lexington, Ky., correspondent of the Philadelphia" Times tells this characteristic story of Henry Clay: ".Major Throckmorton came of a nood familv. His father was at one ! fr.mn nMinwflfn f tltn Inlf- T-T11?rt !. iiiut; JiuJwuiiri jl iiiu uaib a&ju2u jii Liouisvuie, aim jiruviuus iu uiai Kent a hotel here in Lexington. The old gentleman was a great admirer of Henry Clay, and the Great Commoner had a sincere regard for Throckmor ton. The latter used to tell a story about Clay that will hear repeating. When the Senator used to come home from Washington he would leave the river at Maysville, and make the journey to Lexington by stage. "On" this particular occasion Throckmorton was on tlie levee to receive his distinguished friend, and had a carriage i waiting. The pro ceeded to the old Hill House first and had dinuer. Then Mr. Clay ex pressed a desire to personally inspect some land in which he was interested that lay in the adjoining county of Lewis, 'about fifteen miles distant from Maysville. The enrriace was called, and Mr. Clay and Mr. Throck morton were driven away. They had some difficulty in hunting up the land, and darkness overtook them. A high wind arose and the rain be gan to fall. They stopped in front of the first cabin, "a rude habitation, and Throckmorton asked if they could be sheltered for the night. " 'Sartin, gentlemen,' answered the woman of the house, a typical Amazon. 'Light off, I'll send one uv thor hoys to fodder yer boss.' "The great Senator and his friend alighted and entered the cabin. Mr. Clay removed his hat, and, bowing in that courtly manner for .'hich he was distinguished, greeted the woman in deep, sonorous tones. She was busy over the fire, but turned, bowed, and, ej'eing the Senator sharply, said': "'What might your name be, stranger?' "'Clay, madam,' answered the Senator," with another statelv bow. 'Henry Clay.' "Clay?' repeated the woman, still eyeing liini; 'Clay? Be you any kin to Bill Clay, up "the creek, who was sent to the penitentiary last year for hoss-stealin' ?' "For a moment Mr. Clay was speechless, and then turning to Throckmorton, he. drew himself up to his full height, and, smiting his chest with hisclenched hand, cried : '"Mv God, Throckmorton, this is fame!'"" Ills Sight Wa-s Failing. He had been to a high-priced oculist about two dozen times to have his eyes operated on, and at Ins last visit the oculist remarked confi dently : "You're getting along linelv, sir, and you'll be all light in "a fow weeks." "I hope so, doctor, but L can't see now, as well as I could at first." "Oh, yes you can. There's a marked improvement." "But, doctor, I know letter." "You onlv think so." "Oh, no, I know." "How do you know?" "Why, doctor, when L first came, T could see quite a snug little sum to my credit in the bank, and I'll be hanged if I can see a dollar there now." The doctor ceased his argument. Merchant Traveler. "All I want is a single heart," writes a poetess. Probably she is trying to fill a bob-tail flush. Out of Sort. Many persons feel unwell, not abso lutely sick, but in a state of discomfort. The liver is out of order. Take Sim mons Liver Regulator. This unfailing specific for liver disease has restored more people to health and happiness than any other agency known on earth. Xo one can take the Regulator and re main long unwell. Rev. R. G. Wilder, Princeton, X.

Stockton Maverick. Preparing to Kncuuntrr Disrate The prevalence or malarial disorder being dependent npon vitiated conditions of alines pbeie and water is. in ceitain regions, of eours-. ine itable. Thegrand quesiion, there fore, that present itseir to e ery resident or a fever stricken locality is. -'What means shall 1 adopt to escape the dreaded scourge?" For a third of a century Hosteiter'. Stomaeh Hitlers has been the embodied answer to this question. In thickly populated, and sparsely settled districts alike, in town and country, it has afforded constant protection against malarial infection tothoH'uho have used it. It eradicates and prevents, with equal certainty, fever and ague, bilious re mittent, dumb ague and ague cake, and nul lities also the pernicious aftereffects or using persistently the hurtful alkaloid sulphate of quinine. It also remedies, with thorough ness, dvspepsia. liver complaint, constipa tion, debility and rheumatism.

E: Dement, f Klcctrlcn.otovs for Elevated Koads j A short, square car carefully wrap ped in white canvas was " drawn rapidly down the Ninth Avenue Elevated road one afternoon recentlv to the- Fourteenth Street Station, where it was run off on a side track. On the sides of the canvas was painted : "The Daft Electric Motor." It weighs nine and a quarter tons, and was made in Greenville, N. J. The machinery in it consists mainly of a dynamo which is to receive the electric current coming from the generator in Eighteenth Street, near Ninth Avenue. This currentrevolves the armature on the cab dynamo, producing the power by which the wheels are moved backward or for ward at the wilf of the operator. The purpose is lo attach these motors, if successful, to the trains-in place of the locomotives. Thei will draw half a dozen cars, it is claimed by the inventor, as easily a a lo- o mottve, although thev do not wei,-!! half as much. New York Trilmiu. m.vi:ki:ts. WYilff I THOfflPSON.
