Again. ore., " At this juncture the little dog fell overboard again, quite near to where old Solomon was looking wiser than ever, and that old brute dashed after it, but a more nimble fish got its mouth in shape quicker than he and took it in,' diving down deep to get 1-way from old Sol‘s wrath, and coming up on the putside, far away. The heart- less creatures paid no attention to the tears of the weeping woman nor in- terest in the heartrendimr grief of her children. I had arranged with the stewards for enough herdtack to give my shark friends a final morceau at parting, so. despite their unkind conduct, we scattered this donation over the waters, hoping to realize the promise that broad cast on the water: might return after many days: but we were disquieted to see that they had lost all self-resonate and " the The effect of this on that crowd of sharks, and even on old Solomon him- self, was at least remarkable. I had come to feel a sort of sympathy for the entire shark family, and to think that like the evil one, they were not so bad as they had been painted. As I watch- ed them the idea came dimly over me that brotherhood might be extended to all the creatures that people the un- bounded seas. But their conduct, as the moment came for parting, showed that indeed they have traits in com- mon with humanity. They were traits in common with human greed, and selfishness. It was plain enough that they understood the work of prepara- tion and departure; but it made my soul grieve to see that they cast off all restraint and ceased to be on good behavior. _ " This state of armistice lasted un- til orders were given to make ready to raise anchor. Will you believe it? Every one of that fleet of sharks knew what was going on. They had seen shore boats bringing off passengers and baggage, and last of all saw the mail boat arrive and the mail bag trans- ferred. Then the Captain came off his gig, and had barely touched toot to the quarterdeck when he shouted: .. ALL HANDS UP ANCHOR". "After a day or so I established a sort of acquaintance thh Soiomon. He would stay by the ship to keep me Company while the others would go off on a raid. At such times Igave him rations of sea biscuits and pieces of pork, over which he would smack his chops cuntentediy and lay to, hoping for more.

There was no steamship landing, so steam- ers had to anchor out in the bay while lighters took freight ashore, and har- bor boats conveyed passengers to and fro. Something had occurred to detain our steamer, and there was rather ted- ious opportunity to make acquaintance with the surroundings. Old Panama was off across the harbor, and newer Panama-that was far from new, how-i ever,-lay waiting near at hand, with) its memorable cathedral, notable for the fact that it is roofed with mother of pearl, or at least with great pearl oyster shells, whose polished inner sur- face, being exposed, shone wonderful- ly in the sunlight, making an animal“ ance as unique as it was beautiful.

Dr. Drygalski made himself famous an' leader of the Greenland expedition Conducted by the Berlin Society in 1892 and 1898, when he contributed much to the science of Arctic geology. He " only thirty-two years old and has the world before him, hut seems intent up- on reaching the furthest corner of the earth. Dr. Drygalski'ts chief aim is to gain additional knowledge of the earth's magnetism, then to learn about ice for- mations and drifts in the south, mete- orogicul apparitions, and the geology of the polar world. . This was the furthest point south ever reached by human beings. The more favorable conditions in the north have permitted the reaching of a high- er_poi11t that}. H _ _ _ _ The most successful southern ex- pedition thus far was conducted by John Ross, an Englishman who, dur- ing the years 1840-1843. made three trips through those dangerous waters and forced his way as far as 78 degrees south, and discovered the two famous volcanoes, Erebus and Terror, which, like wonders of Fairyland, loom up in the rigid icy desert. 7 For any positive knowledge about this mysterious polar region, science is indebted to the English in the first place, and later to researches made by Frenchmen, Russians and Norwegians. According to the Modern Kunst, Dr. Drygaiski is convinced that the South Pole itself cannot be reached by hu- man beings, the obstacles in the icy vters of the south bei.ng much great- er than those of the north. He is positive, however, that he will learn a great deal about the secrets of the An- taretie Ocean, and will penetrate it far enough to find the continent which some geographers believe to be there. Sun-h " ttte 0plnlon or a German Savant Who In About In start on all Antarctic Fagredttiora. Still another earnest effort to ap- proach the South Pole, is about to be made by Dr. Erich von Drygalski, a. young German Savant, who is about to start with a thoroughly equipped ex- pedition for the southern extremity of the earth.

" When the storm was over, the bat- tered old craft crawled under shelter behind Cape St. Lucas, the southern- most feature oft Lower California, where the old tramp had some more business. That was a charming bit of as it the Word was new to them. The rest of us watched the storm, and Wondered a little it the ship could wea- ther the gale, but wondered more if that covey of Panama sharks would keep their bearings or strike off south to try and reach the Pacific Ocean near thtsir equatorial homes. " It was nip and tuck tor several days whether the old craft could make the riftle. Those of the passengers who were not prepared to die were trying to any belated prayers. singing forgotten hymns or a weather sharp as he was all the time looking aloft at the sky and passing clouds. He sent the little fellow on all sorts of errands; even made him dive under the ship, as if to examine its Bepworthineaa, and would listen eagerly to his report. When at last the order was given to up anchor. all the Panama sharks went off in advance into the Gulf of California, but were fooled for we dropped into Manzan- iilo for a few hours. When we finally got out into the gulf we realized that the storm clouds that old Sol had been so attentively studying were ready for business. The old ship-it was old and unseaworthy--met for days what sail- ors said was the moat fearful storm they had ever known in the Gulf of California, where sea and sky generally are calm and afford all the charm that sea and sky can give. " When we reached Aeapuleo-ovtsr a thousand miles yet north-there they all were again! For my part [ignored them; to be once betrayed in friend- ahip was enough for me. But it was easy to see that old Solomon had some game on hand. He was evjdently THE BOY WAS RESCUED. We got away from Panama and sup- posed all its sharks were left behind; but the steamer had freight and pas- sengers for Realejo, Nicaragua. and when some of the passengers were cruising in small boats about the beau- tiful harbor and landlocked bay we recognized a great part of the Pana- ma contingent as mingling with the sharks of those northern waters. They tried to play it fine; we could see that old Solomon had told his Realjo rela- tives what gulls they had made of us; the old fellow tried to act as if he never had seen or heard of us before, but he had a peculiar cock of the eye We recognized; we also recognized the little Joker who ran his errands. sea fight worth the beholding. Every one, even the gentle-seeming female sharks rushed to get a leg, an am. an eye, even a tooth of that poor lad; but while they were battling for a chance finish were more sec gluttons. The way they scrambled and tore the waters apart to get those sea biscuits was a caution to our expectations. It was some satisfaction to see that old Solo- mon-the beastly hrpocrius-mmsr got any biscuit! " Just at this time the last boat came off and in the rush to unload small boy {on overboard.

Then he turned to the professor with a sigm- ficant leer and twinkle of the eye. ”Sceance an' airt dinna " gang the- ge1her, professor," said he.

The professor declared that he would cut off the margins, and asked Alex- ander to bring him a pair of scissbrs; but alas! they would not work, and the learned man threw them down in disgust. .
