Shark \Shark\, n. [Of uncertain origin; perhaps through OF. fr.       carcharus a kind of dogfish, Gr. karchari`as, so called from       its sharp teeth, fr. ka`rcharos having sharp or jagged teeth;       or perhaps named from its rapacity (cf. {Shark}, v. t. & i.);       cf. Corn. scarceas.]       1. (Zo[94]l.) Any one of numerous species of elasmobranch             fishes of the order Plagiostomi, found in all seas.          Note: Some sharks, as the basking shark and the whale shark,                grow to an enormous size, the former becoming forty                feet or more, and the latter sixty feet or more, in                length. Most of them are harmless to man, but some are                exceedingly voracious. The man-eating sharks mostly                belong to the genera {Carcharhinus}, {Carcharodon}, and                related genera. They have several rows of large sharp                teeth with serrated edges, as the great white shark                ({Carcharodon carcharias, [or] Rondeleti}) of tropical                seas, and the great blue shark ({Carcharhinus glaucus})                of all tropical and temperate seas. The former                sometimes becomes thirty-six feet long, and is the most                voracious and dangerous species known. The rare                man-eating shark of the United States coast                ({Charcarodon Atwoodi}) is thought by some to be a                variety, or the young, of {C. carcharias}.

Wrestling \Wres"tling\, n.       Act of one who wrestles; specif., the sport consisting of the       hand-to-hand combat between two unarmed contestants who seek       to throw each other.          Note: The various styles of wrestling differ in their                definition of a fall and in the governing rules. In          {Greco-Roman wrestling}, tripping and taking hold of the legs             are forbidden, and a fall is gained (that is, the bout is             won), by the contestant who pins both his opponent's             shoulders to the ground. In          {catch-as-catch-can wrestling}, all holds are permitted             except such as may be barred by mutual consent, and a fall             is defined as in Greco-Roman style.          {Lancashire style wrestling} is essentially the same as             catch-as-catch-can. In          {Cumberland and Westmorland wrestling} the contestants stand             chest to chest, grasping each other around the body. The             one first losing his hold, or touching the ground with any             part of his body except his feet, loses the bout. If both             fall to the ground at the same time, it is a dogfall, and             must be wrestled over. In the          {Cornwall and Devon wrestling}, the wrestlers complete in             strong loose linen jackets, catching hold of the jacket,             or anywhere above the waist. Two shoulders and one hip, or             two hips and one shoulder, must touch the ground to             constitute a fall, and if a man is thrown otherwise than             on his back the contestants get upon their feet and the             bout recommences.

Telescope \Tel"e*scope\, n. [Gr. [?] viewing afar, farseeing;       [?] far, far off + [?] a watcher, akin to [?] to view: cf. F.       t[82]lescope. See {Telegraph}, and {-scope}.]       An optical instrument used in viewing distant objects, as the       heavenly bodies.          Note: A telescope assists the eye chiefly in two ways; first,                by enlarging the visual angle under which a distant                object is seen, and thus magnifying that object; and,                secondly, by collecting, and conveying to the eye, a                larger beam of light than would enter the naked organ,                thus rendering objects distinct and visible which would                otherwise be indistinct and or invisible. Its essential                parts are the object glass, or concave mirror, which                collects the beam of light, and forms an image of the                object, and the eyeglass, which is a microscope, by                which the image is magnified.          {Achromatic telescope}. See under {Achromatic}.          {Aplanatic telescope}, a telescope having an aplanatic             eyepiece.          {Astronomical telescope}, a telescope which has a simple             eyepiece so constructed or used as not to reverse the             image formed by the object glass, and consequently             exhibits objects inverted, which is not a hindrance in             astronomical observations.          {Cassegrainian telescope}, a reflecting telescope invented by             Cassegrain, which differs from the Gregorian only in             having the secondary speculum convex instead of concave,             and placed nearer the large speculum. The Cassegrainian             represents objects inverted; the Gregorian, in their             natural position. The Melbourne telescope (see Illust.             under {Reflecting telescope}, below) is a Cassegrainian             telescope.          {Dialytic telescope}. See under {Dialytic}.          {Equatorial telescope}. See the Note under {Equatorial}.          {Galilean telescope}, a refracting telescope in which the             eyeglass is a concave instead of a convex lens, as in the             common opera glass. This was the construction originally             adopted by Galileo, the inventor of the instrument. It             exhibits the objects erect, that is, in their natural             positions.          {Gregorian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Gregorian}.          {Herschelian telescope}, a reflecting telescope of the form             invented by Sir William Herschel, in which only one             speculum is employed, by means of which an image of the             object is formed near one side of the open end of the             tube, and to this the eyeglass is applied directly.          {Newtonian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Newtonian}.          {Photographic telescope}, a telescope specially constructed             to make photographs of the heavenly bodies.          {Prism telescope}. See {Teinoscope}.          {Reflecting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by a speculum or mirror (or usually by two             speculums, a large one at the lower end of the telescope,             and the smaller one near the open end) instead of an             object glass. See {Gregorian, Cassegrainian, Herschelian,             [and] Newtonian, telescopes}, above.          {Refracting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by refraction through an object glass.          {Telescope carp} (Zo[94]l.), the telescope fish.          {Telescope fish} (Zo[94]l.), a monstrous variety of the             goldfish having very protuberant eyes.          {Telescope fly} (Zo[94]l.), any two-winged fly of the genus             {Diopsis}, native of Africa and Asia. The telescope flies             are remarkable for having the eyes raised on very long             stalks.          {Telescope shell} (Zo[94]l.), an elongated gastropod             ({Cerithium telescopium}) having numerous flattened             whorls.          {Telescope sight} (Firearms), a slender telescope attached to             the barrel, having cross wires in the eyepiece and used as             a sight.          {Terrestrial telescope}, a telescope whose eyepiece has one             or two lenses more than the astronomical, for the purpose             of inverting the image, and exhibiting objects erect.
