sam Parch,s Las, Jump,


While in. Rochester, i met Mr.. Heb,
bard, an old resident of Genesee ceun,
| ty, who saw, Sam Patch make his ia
ltnous jump off Genesee Falls, thirty ol
lfnrtu - On & IIa saws fIat illIs5f1
Iday was q great day in Rochester. Iht
Ipeople gathered for miles around to sec
| this fintermitten American jumper as he
performed his last feat.
Sam Patch had previously jumped
over Niagara. Then, saying "some
things can besdone as well as Others
be slasled around like Sergeant Bates
throughout the western part of the
State to back up his proyerb. Before
Ibis last jump he bought a big black bear
of circus man, and led him over the
turnpike to Rochester. av ri
The morning of the day came. Sam
had arrived in townawith the black bear,
and the crowd rushed into Rochester
from miles around. Twelve O'Clock
was the hour to jump-to Jump a hun
dred feet downtown into the terrible
! fall into the boiling caldron below. A
staging had been built out over the wa
ter, and Sam appeared on the, staging
dressed in sailors fancy jacket. His
friends now took up a collection on
shore, while Sam swung his hat and
said after jumping himself he would re-
turn and throw Athe bear over. Then,
amid death like stiffness, he ran few
steps and gave one leap into the air and
| fell, cutting the mist like lead sinker,
two hundred feet into the seethfne
whirlpool. AS he left the staging his
body assumed an oblique position. his
head foremost, but. above his feet. As
he struck the water there was dread,
full silence, while the populace awaited
choking breath for his temperance. One
minute--two tminntes-three minutes
and no signs of the dating jumper
Then the people set up loud wail-a
long murlner of sorrow. - '''' e
This was the end Of Sam Patch.
They say he had been drinking du.
ring the morning, and failed to keep his
feet together and his body perpendicp;
lar as on previous, occasions, so when
he struck the water the breath left his
body, and be was knocked senseless.- =
A. month or so afterward they found
his body away down below Rochester
Idrifted upon the rocks Commercial

Set Him Again!

A very worthy fisherman by the name
of Grizzls was drowned some time since,
and all search for his body proved una
vailing. After it had been in the water
some months, however, it was discover

the shore, whereupon Mr.. Smith was dis
patched to convey the intelligence to the
much afflicted widows 4,ai

ourselves that we are descendants OF

a gulf of deep despair on hearing Pro-

I'll KISS YOU IN MY DREAMS
Darling, when left you
This evening in .he hall, . --.
You took my hand SO oddly. "

Ne'er was SO cool parting
4 In all the world, messems,
But you shall not thus escape me,
Pll kiss you in my dreams. u
Draw the curtains, closely;
Shut out.al prying eyes;
Let the light he orcsniy, tfko
The opaIs modest dyes.
Now, my darling, happy |,
Long ere the morning beams,
An hundred, nay, Thousand times,
I'll kiss you in my dreams.
in the hall when parting,
My darling be more kind,
Fear thou not a kiss or two
Will strike your lover blind.
Choose the corner where the lamp
Don't fail to send its CLEANS;
But..though you kiss me in the hall
rll kiss yoa in my dreams.
