SATURDAY EVENING. APRIL 10.
a DIVE FOR LIFE.

Just below kanawha falls, in West Nir-
oinia. ia an oyerhanging rock Of immense
size juttng out about one hundred feet over
a seethng whirlpool aud 1t was once the
scene of q remarkable adventure.
The Indians were in hot pursuit of Van
Ribbpr. a settler and man of distinction In
those early times He was hard pressed,
and all access to the river below and above
being cut OIL, he was driven to this Juttlng
rock. which proved to be the jumplng-oii
place for him. He stood on the rock, IN full
view of the enemy above and below, who
yelled like demons at the certainty OF MS
speedy capture. He stood up boldly, and
with his rifle kept them at hay. As he
stood there he looked across the river, saw
his friends-his wife and her babe in her
arms-al helpless to render assistance:
They stood as if petrlicd with terror ana
amazement. She cried at the top oil her
voice:
Leap into the river and meet me-"
LAYING her babe on the grass. she selzed
the oars and sprang into sklA alone. AS
she ueared the middle Of the river her
husband saw the Indians coming IN iuil
force and yelling like demons.
Wife, Wife" he screamed, I'm coming:
drop down little lower"
With this he sprang from his crag ana
descended like al arrow into the water, leet
foremost.
The wife rested on her oars a moment to
see him rise to the surface, the little SIKH
floating like a cork bobbng about on the
boiling flood. 1t was all awful moment; 1t
seemed an age to her. Would he ever rise :?
Her earnest gaze seemed 10 penetrate the
depths of the water, and she darted her
boat further down the stream. He rose
near her. in Il moment the boat was along
side of him. and she helped him TO scramble
into it amid a shower OF arrows and shot
that the baiiled Indians poured into them.
The daring wife did not speak word !; her
husband was more dead than alive. and all
depended upon her strength being main
tanned till they could reach the bank. This
they did, Just where she had started, right
where the babe was still lying, Growing
and laughing. The men pulled the skin
high on the land. and the wife slowly arose
and helped to lit Van Bibbcr TO his feet.
He could not walk, but she laid him down
by his babe, and then seating herself, she
wept wildly, inst as any other woman would
have lone under the circumstances. That
babe is now "a grandfather, and that rock Is
called Van B!bber's Rock to this day.
