A vERITABLE ROMANCE.
Two Lovers Finally United After Separa-
ton of Twenty Eight Years.


ton of Twenty Eight Years.
Philadelphia Special.
The concluding episodes of a veritable ro-
nance were enacted in this city to-day As
the British Crown swung up to the American
Line dock, an old woman who had been
walking the deck since sunrise leaned over
the taffrail, calculated ungrammaticalIy

AT the same moment still more elderly
man on the dock shrleked chats my 3ene-
dicta," and gamboled up the gang-plank, fol-
lowed by body-guard of friends, and rush
ed after the retreating woman into the
cabin.
Twenty-eight years ago scene as sad as
this was joyous was enacted by the same
pair on the Cunard dock, at Liverpool,
when Thomas Barbour babe farewell to
Benedicta Price, and set out to find
his fortune amid his kin beyond the
sea. Kin at home had made the
union of the couple an impossible for the
time being, and, although their ages we're
then respectively forty-two and thirty-fve
years. they concluded to await the removal
by time of the family distractions to the
course of true love. The time took nearly a
third of century to the task, upsetting
most OF the institutions of the year 1855, ex-
cept the ocean mail, whose expeditions
hardly kept pace with the epistolary ardor of
the lovers, until month ago the strain on
the postal service was lightened by letter
from Miss Benedicta, announcing that she at
last was free to redeem the pledge che had
kept so well. The result was the reunion
and demonstration on the British Crown

The Water Not So Deep as Supposed, but
Tricky Studded with Rocks.

The Water Not So Deep Supposed, but
Tricky Studded with Rocks.
Niagara Special.
The death of the Captain has to-day shown
another fact. 1t has been generally conceded
that the water from the falls to the whIrl-
pool was very deep, and that no rocks were
within many feet of the surface. This is
contradicted by George Barker, who for
twenty years has been engaged in taking
views of the river and of the falls. He says:
One morning few years ago | visited the
whirlpool rapids for the purpose OF taking
some instantaneous photographs. The water
was very low, caused by heavy wind which
had been blowing up the river above the falls
for several days. l was surprised to find that
at the points where usually were to be seen
immense splashes. which are the great at
fractions of the whirlpool rapids rocks were
plainly to be seen, at some points just at the
surface, at others rising out of the water
two or three feet. Thinking that some time
picture of them might be of use in decid-
ing the depth of the water at this point l
made several negatives. [ had never made
any prints from them, and had almost forgot
ten 1 had them until this Webb affair
brought them to my mind. | have looked
them up, and now send prints from them,
showing immense rocks lying right IN the
course which Webb took in his fatal attempt.
| also send prints from negatives taken from
identically the same point, but when the
water was at its ordinary height, and in
which no rocks are to be seen. The views show
beyond doubt that the rapids of the Nj
agara river are studded with rocks, and go
far toward showing that the post-mortem
examiners were wrong in their conclusions"

The next swimmer who seriously aspires
to do what Webb failed in trying to do will
carefully inspect every yard of the course to
begin with, He will send dummies down
the rapids and watch their drift and fate
He will test the currents and study the ed
dies and movements of the water in the
whirlpool. Having taken all these obvious
precautions, and having gained fair knowl-
edge of the situation, he will take particular
pains to keep out of Niagara river at that
particular point. No man who knows the
rapids and the whirlpool well will ever try to
swim through them unless he is tired of life
Webb lost his life through reckless ignor-
ance. Everybody told him he was a fool to
think of swimming the rapids. He knew
better-simply because he knew nothing
about it. No man will do as he did again,
and no man who knows what he might have
known will trust himself in the Niagara
river between the bridge and the whirlpool.
