above the falls. He then stripped and
had his body padded with cotton batting
and then put on his rubber suit, which
was inflated fifty-two inches around the
waist and seventy-fiv inches around the
chest. The head gear was also inflated,
while two steel bands protected his body.

SHOT OVER THE CENTER
of the Horseshoe falls, and luckily he
was shot with lightning rapidity over

nearly two minutes, when black speck
covered with a thick white coating wa
seen bobbing and jumping to and fro i'll
the boiling cauldron of rushing, gurg-
ling waters. In q short time Brodie was
caught in the rushing waters and car
ried at brisk pace toward the Ameri-
can shore, and then all of sudden he
was hurled toward the Canadian shore,
where John Ledger and the United Press
correspondent had ropes ready to drag
him from the water. Ledger was
stripped and swan out 800 feet with a
rope fastened to his waist, while the
other was held on shore. Ledger
after several attempts reached Brodie,
fastened the rope to the iron bands about
his waist and then swan ashore.
On Brody being lifted on the rocky
shore, he was quickly stripped. Brandy
was poured in small quantities on his
temples, while he was rubbed and
chafed. but he was insensible and blood
oozed from his mouth, nose and ears,
probably from shock or conclusion. For
twenty minutes Brodie lay until ammo
mia was applied to his nostrils and he
began to shiver and gesticulate with his
hands. Brodie's injuries are confined to
many bruises and a sprained back.

dilion to his store to make room
for his large stock. The town also
has blacksmith shop run by Mr..

cellent smith. While Hatton is
not very large place, yet it is a
splendid trading point. On our
return, we stopped at Concord.
This town at one time was one OF
the best towns in the county, but
since the railroad has been built
through Auxvasse. it has literally
killed the tewn. We called Oh

Have you a mother? Ifso, honor
and love her. If she is aged, do
all in your power to cheer her de-
years. Her hair may have
bleached, her eyes may have dim
med, her brow may contain deep
and unsightly burrows, her cheeks
may be sunken; but you should
never forget the holy love and ten
der care she has had for you. In
years gone by she has kissed away
from your cheek the troubled tear;
she has soothed and petted you
when all else appeared against you;
she has watched over and nursed
you with a tender care known only
to a mother; she has sympathized
with you in adversely; she has been
proud of your success. You may
be despised by all around you, yet
that loving mother stands as an
apologist for all your shortcomings.
With all that disinterested affec-
ton would it not be ungrateful in
you if in her declining years you
failed to reciprocate her love and
honor her as your best, tired friend!
We have no respect for man OF

BETTE SIRA INSANE.
The Poor Girls Mind Hopelessly
Wrecked-The Author of
Her Ruin Still in
jail.

Bette Sira has gone crazy. The
poor victim of Dick Dusenberry's
bestial appetite, after weeks of
suffering, has succumbed to nature
and is now a driveling imbecile.
Henry Pledge, who lives with the
Clark's, near Benton City, where
the girl makes her home. was here
last week for the purpose of see
ing what steps were necessary to
secure the removal of the girl to
the insane asylum at Fulton. Mr..
Pledge tells story of the poor
girls sufferings that would melt
heart of stone.
Since the outrage, which occur
red last fall, Miss Sira has been
living with the Clark family, near
Benton. The Clarks are her rela-
tives and the girl came from West
Virginia to make her home with
them. She has suffered constantly
with a malady which manifested
itself in violent twitehings, and the
physicians who attended her had
no hesitancy in pronouncing 1t a
result of the assault. Commissions
were of frequent occurrence, but
until week ago no one thought
the child's mind would give away.
Last Monday the patient began to
talk at random, imagining herself
at her old home back East. Since
that day. she has not been clothed
with her usual good sense and a
physician has expressed the opin-
ion that she is incurably insane.
At the time the girl testified
IN court here when application was
made for bond for her assailant,
she was quick in her answers and
showed high intelligence. Miss
Sira will be brought. here this week
and sent to Fulton by County Clerk
Williams.
1t will be remembered that Miss
Sira is the girl whom, it is alleg-
ed, was SO brutally assaulted by
Dick Dusenberry, a Montgomery
bartender. She was taken from a
Wabash train by deception, drug
ged and repeatedly assaulted. Du-
senberry has been refused bail by
the highest courts and now lies in
iaii here.
