Owftle Waa Dravy I mil Shark Aide, I In the Defeat f the king of thp Drr. A ficrht to the death between an 8(V foot whale on one side ud n thrasher, , or fox shark, and a sword ftsh on the other, was witnessed a few days ago by the visitors ami sailors ou two yachts and the crews of some other small vessels outside Sim Francisco ' bay. All the witnesses agree that for ' thrilling interest the fight was ahead ; of anything' they had ever eeen or herd of. It lasted half an hour and I resulted in the defeat and probable death of the whale. The whale, niwt the ssvordfUh, and I the shark ore ancient enemies, and lights between them are not rare. TRIANGULAR SKA FIGHT. (The Shark Bee med to Ki.sc Twenty Put Into the Air.) However, it seldom falls to the lot of landsmen to '. u combat between the largest inhabitants of tin- sea, unl many a sailor hut spent Ills life on salt water without ehanoa to see such a sight. Part of the time the ynohts were within 800 yards of the eombat, and Some of the other lvoats Ventured even nearer, or the iir.li in tJieir blind fury worked nearer them. All the time the water was churned into foam, nnd the spray was dashed hiph into the air na the whnle tspouted or the thrasher leaped into the air to fall upon its enemy. The whale'a efforts Were mainly directed to escape from the constant attacks of the smaller monsters. In his efforts to aroid the rushes of the fox shark he would try to sound, only to be forced back to the surface by tha thrusts of the swordfish below. Every time he came up he would send forth a fountain of silvery spray. The same instant a column of water would be hurled up wards, as If by an explosion beneath the surfaxe, and in the column would appear the gray body of the fox shark, spreading its two wing-like fins. The shark seemed to rise fully 20 feet into the air, and, turning as a diver would when leaping from a springboard, would fall mujsie first upon the back of the whale, and the two would sink beneath the surface. That sort of fighting went on for fully 30 minutes. The thrasher kept rlfht after the whale, and the swordfish waited below until ho had a chance from that vantage. After about 15 rounds of that sort of battle, ns one of the sports on board one of the yachts put it, the whale began to lose interest, and seemed willing to call it a draw. Tint the shark was game, and kept right nfter him. The whale began to lum ber along, not up to his speed, nnd it was plain that a dead heat would sat isfy him. Hut the shark waa a Fitz sinimons. Finally the whale turned, belly up, and he wn done for. He sank like a, foundered ship. He sim ply could not withstand the slugging of the mighty head of that shark, falling 20 feet upon him, and the thrusts of the swordfish from be neath. CROWN PRINCE GUSTAF.

NOTES AND COMMENTS. The connection with lost Sunday's lesson includes the parable of the la borers in the vineyard (Matt. 20:M6), a third prediction by Jesus of His death and resurrection (Mark 10:32 o4), the request of Jesus and John that tiny might occupy high places when Jesus came into His Ulory (Mark 10: 3S-43), and then the present lesson. Jesus hail now crossed the .Ionian and had come Into the land of Judea prop er. Matthew gives us the account of two blind men, but Mark and Luke tell the story only of these nun. Bar timeus by name. On this part of His journey Jesus was accompanied by great crowds, doubtless mostly people who were go ing to Jerusalem for the approach ing feast of the Passover. BartlmeUS, B blind beggar by the roadside, soon learned that it was Jesus who was coming, Jesus had healed blind men before, and llartim rus determined to appeal to Jesus for help. Where had BartlmeUS heard that title, "Son of David," applied to Jesus? It may be that the disciples had preached the Messiah, but it is as well at least to MlplKise the blind man had made his own deduction, Jesus had healed lepers, restored sight to the blind, made the lame to walk, and even raised the dead. He could be no other than the Messiah, therefore the "Son of David." His cry was for mercy, "hare merry on me." That is a word uhhi which emphasis Is laid in the Scriptures. The publican in the temple preyed: "Be merciful to me, a sinner." "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy," declares Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount. There are none who do not need mercy, none who can afford not to show it to others. It is the quality which has in it the essence of Divine love. Jesus stopped nnd cnllcd for the msn who needed help. "He ealleth for thee." Here we have one order of events. The man sought Jesus, and Jesus re scinded by calling for him. In many cases it occurs otherwise. We have it in the (iospel record that "Jesus saw a man named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom, and lie saith unto him, follow me. And he arose and followed Him." The important mat ter is not so much whether the voice of Jesus is heard before we seek Him ns it is that the right answer be made lo the call. Matthew arose and fol lowed him, "Hartiincus rose and came to Jesus." "Lord, that I might receive my light:" There is a spiritual and moral blindness. There is the awful calamity of him who has yielded to sin, namely, that he fails to perceive clearly there after what is right and what is wrong. Jesus not only restored physical sight when on earth, but He cleared the moral vision. To perceive the right nnd have the power to persist in that course is the privilege of those who have heard of Jesus. It is not that Christians never err in judgment or conduct. The true t'hristian is he who strives as best he may to know his rluty. to be in sympathy with move ments of the highest progress, todohis duty as he knows it, and leave there suits with God. He strives to bring his purposes and motives into alasolute accordance with that which lsdivinest and purest. "Thy faith hath made thee whole:" Again Jesus commends faith ua the cardinal principle upon which any lasting results cau be built. Kailh may be said to be the eyes of the soul. They see furthest who have most faith, not necessarily those who have the best reasoning faculties. Faith may lie weak, the eyes of the soul may have lost their light. Lord, "help thou my unlelief." "And immediately he received' hia sight, nnd followed Jesus in the way:" iiratitude is one of the lessons indi rectly taught. Bartimeus was grateful for restored sight. The only way he sould show his gratitude was by fol lowing and adding his praises to the praises of the throng. The Christ inn life consists not only in acknowledging faith in Christ, there is after that the i following persistence in the course that has been chosen. Terse Sayings. The God who upholds a universe can uphold you. Liberty is freedom to do what you ought, not what you like. If you have religion by proxy you may have Heaven in the sunie way. There arc somo things you must both be and live before you can be lieve. The artillery of skepticism often opens up new mines in the moun tains of Ood. The nails of the cross may mortify the flesh but they are the beat tonic for tha spirit. Ram'a Horn.
