A Beast of a Salmon. — Mr Buckland 

 tells the following story: "Avery nerv- 

 ous man went out fishing on Loch Tay, 

 An immense salmon took the fly and ran 

 the reel out in the most violent manner, 

 the rod shaking and bending with the 

 ■weight of the fish. The angler— we can- 

 not call him sportsman — turned pale with 

 fright. At last, as the line had not been 

 fastened to the spindle of the reel, of 

 course the fish ran it all out and escaped. 

 With that the angler exclaimed : ' Thank 

 heaven 1 tlie brute's gone ; let's go ashore.'S 



" In Tuckerton Bay, and generally in the 

 thoroughfares along the New Jersey 

 coast, the genuine man-eating shark 

 makes its appearance about the Ist of 

 August. It attains a length in these 

 waters of sixteen feet— at least an old 

 fisherman informs us that he has seen 

 them there of that length— and they would 

 not hesitate to sei ze and carry off any 

 bather within reach. Lately Mr. David 

 Shuster, of this city, and some friends 

 captured near Atlantic City a shark weigh- 

 ing 3o0 pounds and measuring nine feet 

 in length. It was taken in Grassy Bay, and 

 refiuired the united strength of seven men 

 to land. " 



If we had some evidence that these were 

 " man-eaters," such items as this, going 

 the rounds, might be useful in some other 

 way than simply giving evidence of the 

 popular misconception on this subject.
