when Niagara Was Dry

4 correspondent of the Buffalo cam
msrcjd relates an instance when the
great Niagara ceased to flow. and de-
scribes remarkable discoveries in the
dry channel. rs follows:
In the spring of lsi9, | think it was
at all events it was about that date
the people on the banks Of the Mag
ara were surprised To see the water
rapidly rcceding from the shore II
continued to fall until there was ahso-
lutely no water flowing through the
rapids, except a small stream in the
very middle Of the river bel. Asa
matter OF course so strange circum-
stance gave rise to no end of spccula-
tion, and attracted people to the river
from far and near. | have forgotten
now just how long the water ceased to
flow. but IL must have been for nearly
a day. What was done while the river
bed was dry could not have been ac-
complished short of several hours, and
distinctly remember that hundreds Of
people spent most Of the day in explor-
ing the bottom. For some reason the
impression prevailed upon people in
Chippewa, that in the river channel
was a spring similar to the burning
spring on the shore near the head Of
the rapids. Search was instituted.
and sure enough a gas well of large
proportions was discovered quite
distance out IN the channel directly OPP
pOsite the mouth of Chippewa creek.
The thought occurred to somebody
that it would be good idea, now
that the river was dry. TO attach a
tube to the well and keep the gas
burning Accordingly number Of
men repaired to the foundry in the
village and there found a large iron
kettle such rs is used In boiling down
sap. They drilled hole in the bot
tom, put thread In it. fitted a piece
of tubing to 1t, and carted the two
down to the gas well in the river chan
mel. The kettle was turned bottom
side up over the well. the tube insert
cd in the bottom, and glass lamp put
on the top. the idea being to have a
sort of natural beacon light. But the
flow Of gas was so strong that when a
match was applied the lamp was blown
