I will try TO describe the appearance "a
the fIume rs seen since the "slide." AZ
ter crossing the bridge (Which was not
carried away). instead OF the open space
where the platform for mounting and as
mounting used to be, you find the place
covered with large boulders, pebbles, pa
yine-stones, and grave, scattered in wild
Commission 10 the depth OF to 10 feet, pre-
sentinp n scene OF desOlation which makes
the heart ache in remembrance Of the for
mer beauty and picturesqueness. Here ana
there are seen remnants OF huge trees, strip
ped OF their bark and splintered. Much OF
this dfbriS has been removed IN order TO
build the substantial wooden walks, which
make the ascent OF the flume much easier
than before. Soon you come 10 the smooth
stone floor, down which the wafer slides
as formerly, the stones and rubbish thrown
upon It by the avalanche having been re-
moved to the sides. You go on to where
the solid stone walls rise to fifty and sew.
enty feet. formerly covered with beautliui
MOSES and ferns, now entirely denuded
by the rush Of the avalanche which carried
away the boulder. All this mass OF rocks,
trees. and boulders, starting high up on
Mount Liberty. swept down WIN IRE
sistibIe and increasing force till the
bridge was nearly reached, when
1t divided, part going to the let
through the forest and part to the right.
This mass, coming in above with tremen-
dous force, made an extension OF the Hume
OF several hundred feet beyond the end OF
the old passage. In passing it choked the
old channel and diverted the water to the
top OF the high wall on the left as you go
up, and it now tumbles over the cliff fifty
or sixty feet in very beautiful waterfall.
This is the only compensation for the loss
OF the old-time wonders and beauty. At
the top, where the channel was INSTRUCTED,
a huge boulder has lodged, leaning against
the right wall, which is tipped to meet it,
making a sort OF cave. From this point,
looking down the whole length Of the
fume the view is very grand.

OF ST. LOUIS FULL OF STRANGE RELICS.
A special from ST. Louis TO the Philadel.
phia Press says: A very interesting dis
covery, which promises to add consider
aDly 10 the city's historical archives, was
accidentally made Tuesday by some en-
ployes OF Rohan Brothers, No. llO6 Collins
street. They were engaged in digging the
foundations for q massive steam shears
about TO be constructed In the centre ~
the shop, when the side of the wall sud-
denly fell in, disclosing to view a cavity
about seven feet in height. Enter;no tho
men discovered that the cavity was of con-
siderable length, with floor OF solid rock.
while the ceiling was supported by upright
posts.
An exploring party was at once made.
composed OF Councilman Stone, Mr.. Den,
MS Devery, and Messrs. John Michael and
fhii!p Rohan. After proceeding in a
sfaigh. line east for about fifty feet the
party came to an angle and followed an.
other end OF the cave which pointed to-
wards Cave street. Beyond the turn was
another and smaller opening. which tbey
entered, add walked on for some distance.
when they came to another turning noint
10 the north.
This turning was about sevcnty-iiye feet
long, and at the end Of the distance the
cave again turned east, and then the ex.
pioring party came upon seycra! relies OF
lndoubted historical value. Councilman
stone found an Indian bow, and a quantity
pi pottery and Aint-locks. Mr.. John Ro-
pan unearthed small brass or copper boz.

Determined to Swim the Rapids.
WHAT BALsAU, THE FRENCHMAN, SAID AFTEl
VIEWING NIAGARA.


VIEWING NIAGARA.
A Buffalo telegram says IIilario Balsau,
who arrived i'm this country from France a
few days ago with the announced inten-
ton of swimming the Niagara Whirlpool
Rapids, where Webb was drowned, visited
Niagara Falls yesterday and looked over
the SITUATION. In the evening he left here
for New York, but said he should return
to make the attempt. He refused to give
any date, however, saying that il he did so
the authorities at the Falls would prevent
him. The purpose OF the swim is said TO be
the glory Of France and to win a wager
OF 50,000f. made in Paris after the death
Of Webb had called attention to the danger
of the place. Balsau is from the Basque
Province, and speaks no language but
French. He is about twenty-five years
old, six feet high, broad-sh0uldered and
well formed-in short, very giant. He
walks with slouching gait and talks very
little, but impressed the reporter who saw
him as man who meant business. He says
he knew Webb and had swan with him four
years ago, but was satisfied that Webb was
not his equal in physical power. During
the day Balsau walked along the river bank
which overlooks the rapids and whirlpool,
but did not descend the inclined railways
that lead to the rivers brink. He noted
the difficult spots as he passed along and re.
marked upon them.. When he had re-
turned from his survey he said:
"My plan will be to keep as close to the
Canadian shore as possible. / shall not at
tempt to swim in those terrific waves. /
will let them carry me on their surface, or
beneath, II that is the tendency Of the cur
rent which seizes me. The mistake Cap
tain Webb made was to try to swim
through those stupendous boulders Of
water. l appreciate their tremendous
power, aud would expect to be tossed
about like cork. All | would expect
would be to come up and breathe every
minute. In less than five minutes i
should be carried through. ii / can
| come to the surface five times i shall be
| safe. The only point l fear is the
| first rush OF the water OF the rapids. There
is the danger-the great danger-but the
chances are in favor OF a cool head and a
good pair OF lungs, such as i think have
got. l do not rely on my powers as a
swimmer, but rather on the vigor OF my
respiratory organs, which will enable me
TO retain my power OF breathing, even
though i am submerged a minute and a
half. / am diver-not a swimmer. 1t
will be difficult passage, but will make
| It,"
| Whether Balsau will be as good as his
word remains to be seen.
