This diver thought nothing of remaining beneath the water two minutes and told some re- markable stories of the powers of his an- cestors in defying the elements. His grandfather, he claimed. was famous all over the island as a great shark hunter, and whenever a native was killed by a shark he was called to revenge the deed, and while he had killed a number of these 1 animals he was never injured by one. u1'_ _I..._..I..

When the shark approached, he would lie perfectly quiet, but if it turned to seize him quick as a ash he dived and thrust the stick into the mouth or gills of the animal and with the other hand ripped up the lower surface of the shark by plunging the sharp knife into it and hauling it up, often literally laying it open with one stroke. Even this would not demoralize some sharks, and they, would still attempt to seize the active ene- my, who would grasp it by a n and lay- ing alongside repeatedly stab it. dunk nvu n4-4-only Innn nrrninf. A hrk i mg alongsxue repeuuuusy Iwuu Lu. Such an attack made against a shark in its native element requires the greatest courage and must be the result of a pecul- iarly savage nature on the part of the diver. The man eater shark is a cumber- some, clumsy brute, turning slowly, ex- cept when excited, and it is an easy mat- ter for a lithe, quick aotioned man to slip beneath one. Sometimes the tables are turned and the shark becomes the aggres- sor, but instances of this kind in northern Waters are rare. The most extraordinary instance occurred in Massachusetts bay, where a large shark rose cut of the water and after several attempts sank a boat by ` falling on it and carried 01! the sherman, i the act being seen from the deck of a schooner lying not far away, whose 01'6W were powerless to interfere. rm.,. ....u...... no m..I-.14-.I and 'l"nn.motu are WUFU l)UVVe1'1USU DU 111 |IUl.'1ULOa The natives of Tahiti and Tuamotu are Derfectly at home in the water and ae- complish marvelous feats in diving. The Deerl oyster diver here is paid from $20 to $30 per month. His sole outt is the cloth about his loins and a pair of spec- tzicles, the latter used at the surface to en- able him to distinguish the shells at the bottom. The Hindoos are popularly sup- posed to be the finest divers, but they can- not compare with the divers of Tuamotu. The former go to the bottom by means of weights held there by ballast which is con- tained in a belt, but the Tuamotu divers merely plunge into the water and swim , down with remarkable ceierity to a dis_- tzmce sometimes of 180 feet, almost the greatest limit of divers in armor, who hfwe, it is believed, remained for a short tune at a depth of 200 feet. The. Hindoo remains below the surface 80 or 90 seconds, while the Tuamotu thinks nothing of-two minutes and can remain at this depth for three minutes.
