SPEEDY'S DIVE.
A Big Crowd Watched His
Performance Yesterday.
Stephen Sullivan Made Dive But
Not From Same Place.

Yesterday afternoon that portion OF the
dence in the vicinity of Washington
bridge witnessed the largest gat athering OF
people ever convened In that locality.

tage OF. The bridge from city 10 town
was packed, as was also the railroad
bridge, ell the wharves, houses and sur
rounding hills. The river was also full
OF boats filed with people. At 2:i5 O'Clock
a shout came from the city end of the
bridge, and a hack came over IL with
Mr.. Speedy and other members of "The
Sidewalks OF New York" company. The
carriage drove at once TO the dock, aud
tho party mounted the coal pocket,
where the diver disrobed and stepped to
the front, bowed and then elm ted to
the top of the derrick, where he stood a
moment looking at the surrounding
crowd, and In an instant he shot throu gh
the air and gracefully dived into the
river. His feet were not out OF sight be-
fore his head was above water. A boat
was In readiness and Speedy was taken
out OF the river and carried to the wharf,
where he was soon dressed again and re-
turned to the city.
Uponsthis occasion Mr.. Speedy had a
rival. Among those who climbed 10 the
top Of the coal pocket was lad dressed
In overslls, white shirt, black vest and
shoes, who appeared 10 to an eager
spectator TO the affair. As soon as Speedy
made his dive from the mast head the
boy attempted to climb mp, but was pre-
vented. he then stepped 90 the edge OF
the coal pocket, and without removing
bis clothing made bow To the people
and oove from the high elevation and
landed in graceful manner into the
river, where foat was waiting, whose
occupants picked him M aud roweI TO

most Of our old enemies ave enlisted

of the Bryan men are whites while the
most of the Mckinley men are blacks.
We don't want TO be led by any such
Republican as Mckinley, nor by any such
Democrat as Bourke Cochran. and we
don't wish to be guilty of the pretence of
voting for a third ticket when We know
that the only effect OF so doing would be
TO make 1t possible fol the black and
white McKinleyites to carry Virginia.
This is an election whore every man
should come into the open and stand up

that is that they are rejoicing the hearts
OF the Republicans The Republican lead

their exultation over the division, as
they term II, in the Democratic party,

regard the facticn that has split of from
the regular Democratic organization as a
Republican auxiliary.
