O'clock this ate, noon, NJ. Dc Lave commenced his
rope walking over Gene.ee Falls in presence OF II
few hundred people. lie walked over and back
successfully. A abort time after he appeared /"
undertake the feat 81 carryinsa man upon his
back. The man mounted npon his shoulders with
his feet suspended at the sides Of De Lave and c
moved slowly ont upon the rope When near the
centre Of the river the rope began to sway, and it
was clear the feat was not to he accomplished -
Presently De Lave saw that he was about to fall.
and threw his pole and caught with his arms. The
other man upon his hack caught around Lis body
and drew himsclf up On the rope. And there the
two acrobats were seated upon the rope when our
reporter left. We hear, just as wego 10 press that
they mandgd to reach the shore in safety upon
the rope. We understand that De Lave attributed
the failure Of the feat TO the wet rope--t,e spray
flying upon it in quito shower.
The adventure Of taking a mar over was one that
De Lave had better omitted all together. Aud in
view Of the small audience he hal to-day it is sur
prisng that he undertook 1t. This will pr,mtiy
be the end of rope walking 10 this city n ,cics.
