The Falls Of the 0enssee an Sam Patch'E
Fatal Leap-0ne Gifts Business Houses
and its Great Magnitude.
The present floods, which are either
devastating or threatening the country |
in every direction are justly cause for
apprehension. 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 be troubled by
these spring overtlows. Probably one
of the most disastrous that was ever
known, occurred in Rochester, N. Y,
about twenty years ago. The Genesee
river, just above the falls, where Sam
Patch made his fatal leap, became COM
pletely blockaded by ice, forming an
impossible dam, and the water coming
down the Genesee river overlooked
the principal portion of the city Of Roch-
ester. 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, a roa,
like the peals of thunder or the booming
of cannon would be heard, and in order
to see this ice blasting pl ocess, the wri-
ter went to the top of the new Warner
building, which overlooks the Genesee
river. From here he was not only en-
abled to sec the process uninterruptedly,
but also the magnificent building which
has just been completed. This is n
questionably the finest building devoted
to business and manufacturing purposes
in America, being entirely fireproof,
eight stories high, and containing over
four and a quarter acres of flooring.
Mr.. Warner treated your correspondent
very cou2teonsly, and In the course of
the conversation said:

many other medicine men, but I sup

"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 a remark

put experts to investigate and found
that the springs did not contain any
valuable properties, but the course Of
treatment that was being given there
was performing all the benefit. By
