"REMINISCENCES OF ROCHESTER.
The Fails or the Genesee and Sam
PatclI's Fatal Leap-Onc OF It's
Business Houses and Its
Great Magnitude.

Great Magnitude.
The present foods, which are either dew
astating or threatening tho county IN ev-
cry direction, are justly cause for appre-
hension. No matter whether they come
suddenly or by slow degrees, they are, in
either case, a great evil and much to be
dreaded, and yet America will always DO
troubled by these spring overhows. Prob
ably one of tho most disastrous that was
ever known, occurred in Rochester, N. Y,
about twenty years ago. The Genesee
| River, just above tha falls, where Sam
Patch made his final and fatal leap, be-
came completely blockaded by ice, form
ing IN impossible dam, and the water COM
ing down the Genesee River overlooked the
principal portion of the city of Rochester.
This catastrophe would have been repeated
the present year had not the energy and
foresight Of the city authorities prevented
it. The writer happened to be in Rochester
at that time and was greatly interested in
the manner in which this great catastrophe
was averted. Every few moments, roar
like the peals of thunder or tho booming of
cannon would be heard, and in order to see
this ice blasting process, the writer went
to the top OF the new Warner building,
which overlooHs the Genesee River. From
here he was not only enabled to see tho
process uninterruptedly, but also the mag
nifcent building which has just been COM
pleted. Tnis is unquestionably the finest
building devoted to business and manu-
tirely fireproot, eight stories high, and con-
tanning over four and quarter acres of
flooring. Mr.. Warner treated your CORE
spondent very courteously, and in the
course Of the conversation said:
We are doing a tremendous business
and are far behind in our orders. This is
the season of the year when people, no
matter how strong their constitution may
be, feel, more or less, the pain and indis-
position, the headaches, colds, neuralgia,
rheumatism, dull pains, sore Threats,
coughs-su the col ills that flesh is heir
to come this time Of the year, If at all. It
is natural, therefore, thatw should be very
| busy. This is specially true of our Safe
Rheumatic Cure, and it is crowding US very
sharply for new remedy.o
singular, but had forgotten that you
do not advertise to cure all diseases from
one bottle, as is done generally by many
other medicine men, but I supposed Warn
er's Safe Cure was for the cure of rheuma-
tism."
"And so it has been until our remedy
which was especially for rheumatism and
neuralgia, was introduced We have been
three years perfecting this new remedy.
Study first taught us there were certain
powerful elements in Warmers Safe Cure,
better known as Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure, that made wonderful cures in
chronic and acute rheumatism, but during
our investigation, we learned of remark
able cure at a celebrated springs, and put
expeI is to investigate and found that the
springs did not contain any valuable prop
critics, but the course of treatment that was
being given there was performing all the
benefit. By carefully combining the active
principles of this remedy with our Safe
Cure, we have produced our Safe Rheumatic
Cure, and the cures it is effecting are SIM
ply wonderful, and do not doubt it will
become as popular as our Safe Cure"
- on seem to talk freely IN regard to
your remedies and appear to have no Sc
crets, MIR. Warner"
"None whatever. The physician with
his hundred calls and one hundred diseases,
is necessarily compelled to guess at q great
deal. We are enabled to follow up and
perfect, while physicians can only expert
ment with their hundred patients and hum
bred diseases. With the ordinary physi-
clan, the code binds dim down, 50 that if
he makes a discovery, he Is bound to give
it to the other physicians, which, Of course,
discouTages investigation, to q great ex-
tent. This is why the great discoveries in
medical science of late years have been
made by chemists and scientists aud not
by physicians, and it in a measure accounts
for the Tt markable success of all those doc
tors who make speciality of one or two
diseases"
s. And you find that you are curing as
great mum Der of people as ever beforeY'
" Yes, far greater number. We never
sold so much Of our medicine as now and
never knew of so many remarkable cures"
The writer departed after the above in
terview, but was greatly impressed, not
only by the sincerity of Mr.. Warner, but
by the vastness of all he saw. Mr.. Warn
er's medicines are used throughout the en-
tire length and breadth of the land, and we
doubt not the result they are effectiBg are
really as wonderful as they are related to be.
