The Great Whale. It is a whale. It will be here on a large tented scow, foot of Court street, on Thursday. See advertisement. This whale was captured off Cape Cod and embalmed at a cost of $5,000. She is sixty-five feet long and weighs seventy- five tons. Prof. Landelo is in charge, and tells visitors about this whale and all other whales that exist. He also shows the method of killing these huge animals, or,as they are sometimes erroneous called, fishes. The mouth of this can easily hold ten persons, and the whale bone is shown as it grows in the roof of the creature’s mouth. The scow will be easy of access from reg wharf. Admission 25 cents; children 15 cents,
