Swimming in Deep Water.

At many points along the sound, in the
vicinity of Port Chester, good swimmers
can enjoy plunge from the rocks into
deep water and avoid the wading process,
which makes Coney island and Rockaway
unattractive for bathers vino like to know
that the sand is five fathoms beneath their
feet. One would naturally suppose that
greater danger exists in deep water bath
ing places than where an ordinary sized
man has to walk out the eighth of milo
to submerge his shoulders; but this is not
the fact, If the experience of a landlord
who has kept hotel on the Westminster
shore of the sound for thirty years is to be
trusted
Bless you," said he, 1--WE don't have a
drowning accident hero once in five years.
You see, nobody but a fool would jump of
those rocks unless he was a prime swim
mer; and when the fool comes along and
gets in there are always half a dozen fell
lows there that are as much at home swim
ming as walking, and he's sure to be fished
out before he has time to drown. But in
the surf at many places it's likely enough
that there won't be one good swimmer
among fifty.
But a greater danger than that of
drowning lies in all sorts of sicknesses con-
tracted by staying too long in tie sen. In
shallow water man doesn't swim much,
and there is nothing to tire him, SO he
often paddles about for more than an hour;
but where he can't rest his feet on the bot
tom, and has to swim all the while, he is
pretty sure to come out in quarter of
that tir1e. He is fresh and warmed by his
exercise in one case and in the other he il
faint and blue and shivering. tell you,
the shadows take fifty lives for one the
deeps take. New York Sun.
