Two Men and a Lady in the Under-tow-Presence of Mind Saves Three Lives, The following account was yesterday received from Lion Rock, Elk -Creek, containing the details of a narrow escape tram "drowning of a party of four: This morning at about 11 o'clock three young -ladies snd two young men, came near meeting with a. horrible and untime ly deailSi, iwhtle amusing - themselves at Llon Roc, Elk Creek, watching the break- ib. The parties are 'Miss VHtOtoria Alca nas, Mies Fannie Ferrell, Mrs. c H. Du bois, Mr. 8. W. Mulkey, and Nln Eber- man, Jr. The titles, es 9s known, are very nigh at this time of tfhe year, and It Is a beautiful sight to watch the seas as they come rolling In mountains tngb, striking aaircnt' the rocks what stand out short distance from the shore, and as they strike, send high into the ak a white clay. The young pleasure seekers chewe a ihtgfh rock on the beach where the ride hf not been known to twarfi over, for tbr ' p-ln of observation, ihinking they i --mill be perfectly safe, and could wMh . 'it being harated watch, the grand old wiirvs break against the neighboring rotvi. They sat watchllng for quite a af i".e. Each breaker seemed to grow larger and come cfaeer to them and they concluded to leive (he place,- when ihcy sww one like a mountain, rising out of the water and roiling towarJs them. The danger was understorid, but too late to attempt to leave their positions, as each breaker that came in surrounded the rock they were on; ro they remained still, aMhougfh wWi some fear, admiring the grand wave, as It came rolling in, striking first one rock, then another, sending; the wftute foam from fifty to etxey feet in the sir each time H struck the rocks. They forgot for a moment the great danger, and the helpless situa tion they were in. Before they could realise their difficulty, the great moun tain of water and struck the rock they were on, splashing all over them, carry ing Miss Afcaraa away from the terorr Ixed little group. Mr. Mulkey Immediate ly sprang from the rock to either rave the young lady or lose his own life In tit efforts. Fortunately the wave carried both parties to the beach, where Mr. Mul key gained s. footing, and succeeded tn oatdhlrrg the young lady as she was being carried back by tlhe out-going sea. Toimtr Eberman displayed great brav ery and presence of mind, as Immediately after the breaker bail gone out he help.d the other two lolles to a place of riafety, anil hurried to the assistance of Mr. Mul key, wfho wtM struggling asraliwt the strong nridwtow wfth Mies Alcirss, al most lifeless. In bis arms, and If it bad not been for the brave lad the two woul probably have been swept out to sea. Miss Alcara was taken to her home a short dMeance away, and by the careful attention of Mies Ferrell soon recovered, aMhouKh she was oulte badlv brui.
