IN THE WHIRLPOOL MAX GOES SAFELY THROUGH R A PI 03' OF NIAGARA. "Jack" Gienister Swam the. Whirl pooi Rapids the Hitherto uo . accomplished Fe&i- Once i . Prevented bj PoJice ' v Other News. Niagara Falls, N. Y., Aug. 20. "Jack" GL-nister swam tbe Whirl pool rapids this mornin;, according y to his own statement and that of . his friends, nh) bay inev witnessed the hitherto u n a ceo m pin-bed feat. . Without the aid of 8 life-preserver r cork vest, it is asserted that Gleoister, who was prevented from mating the attempted swim on Sun day by the police, eluded the offi cials shortly after dawn this morn- , lag, and with slro&g, powerful strokes breasted the current do'wo J which tbe uuiortunate .Webb went to death. If Glenister has accomplished tbie feat he is entitled to homrs which it has been believed could not p s ibly fall to man. Toe vis itor to the falls knows with what velocity the waters of the Niagara river wh'rl ab ut at the apex of the lauaotn whirlpool. The ordinary man tails to comprehend how a hu man being could fail to enter the filming, eeething, swirling' current , and live. Like a mael&trom it clutches uud drags . down anything . tat is cast upon its surface. - . ... jriern-aer tays ne made nis way this morning and emerge! mors dead than alive, to be picked up by friends and carried to the . Aoglor's Ketreat, at Lew is ton where da was revived. At r.o n h appeared at the falls, apparently in a dazed con diti oa, while his friend?, who assert that ihey witnessed the perform- ; aaee, loadly sung his praiee and emblazoned his fame to the weld. Glenister announced on Suoday, .when the police prevented his at tempt to swim the rapids, that he would accoooplish the feat within sixty day, lie reached Lewiston laBt icfar, with his mind fully made up o attempt the feat, whether the is su wa death or life with fame and fortune. Only the few fr'unds who actoaopumed him were admitted to the secret. It was 3 o'cKck this mo.n'ng whea, Glenister aiid his friends walked -up the gorg road from Lew- leton to the old M aid of the M ist landing, where fintl preparatiocs were made for the attempt. Gln iater ora swimming ; tigh's. He wae in superb condition, and his friends say there was Dot the slight est nervousness about 'him as lie .As arlrjpfs gave way to oairu uirni"tr pressed the band of each of hix fiiends cbeerfolly and, witli a, parting good-bye, plunged head first in. o tbe onrusbiug wa ters.: Noitven tbe mm who cliims that b made the trip can tell ac curately what happened after that. His friwndti saw him disappear iuto the foam covered rapids. Tbey watched for him to reappear; but the water roared on and they gave Mm up as lo t. Fate interposed and saved the dWing man's life. He passed through the famous whirlpool, ac cording to his story, but instead of being carried arcuod and around and finally, instead of making that awful descent, into the maelstrom from which nothing that is human can arise, he was washed through the outlet and then, with strong, vigorous strokes, he swam on down tthe river to the Devil's Hole. His friend's dashed to tbe water's brink and dragged the form from the current. G'enister was uncon scious, but it was found that life was not altogether extinct and with all speed he was carried ', back to . Lewiston, where .the work of reviv ing him was begun. ' " There are many persons here to night who doubt that Glenister re ally made the trip through the aw ful waters, but the man who claims the distinction remains firm in his assertion's. ' ' ; I made the trip" he said, tonight, 'and it does not seem fair for peo ple who were not present and have no information on the subject to at tempt to rob me of tbe credit. I had to work hard enough for it. Here are men who saw me make it. Their word ought to count lor a lit tle more than those who were no where around when I made the plunge." Kalamazoo, Mich., Aug. 21. F. B. McArthur, a stockholder ; from Saco, Mont., was stabbed in the etamach with a hatpin by an un knewn woman on the streets here today. He was passing along on the sidewalk in a large crowd, when a small boy brushed a little feather duster in the woman's face.' The woman, thinking it was Mc Arthur1, grabbed her hatpin and jibbed it ii-to his stomach. McArtnur can not live. : The identity of the wo rn n is unknown.. ' G. A.
