ITS IMAGINARY ROCKS.
Ohio Fails, That Were Dangerous, Are
Now said to BE Harmless.


Any steersman could have piloted a
steamboat through the dangerous waters
of the Ohio falls at any time during the
past 100 years without fear Of accident,
according TO an alleged discovery made by
United States Engineer Captain Henry
Dugan and Captain Dan Varble, the well
known falls pilot, the other day. Ever
since the big boats have been going over
the falls in the high water il has been
necessary to hire special pilot to take
them through the rapids. He is supposed
to know exactly where the dangerous rocks
rear their heads and is paid large sum
for steering clear of them. Seven pilots
are licensed for that special purpose by the
government, and they must go through
an examination.
Even in the old days of hatboats when
the owners did not have the money sufi-
cient TO pay the toll through the canal
they were obliged TO hire pilot to take
their boats through for them. A falls pilot
was looked upon a. a superior being even
by the regular pilots who were licensed to
steer in smooth waters. They left the dam
and steered il a zigzag way down the tor
rent carefully avoiding supposed conceal
ed rocks. and finally, after tortuous wind
ings, they landed the boat at Portland and
then went back 70 help some other unfor-
tunate past the distractions
Captain Dugan and Captain Varble
drove down over the course the other day
in the buggy of the former and observed
the markings Of rocks as laid bare by the
government improvements shat are going
on. To their surprise, they found that
there were no dangerous rocks in the chan
mel, and Captain Dugan said recently that
in his opinion barge or a steamboat
could float over in perfect safety without
the sign of a pilot. Cincinnati Enquirer.

Antitoxine For Rh.umati.m.

DIR. Hans Froelich Of Chicago, Swiss
physician who has been in America two
years. claims that he has found remedy
that will drive rheumatic aches and pains
out of the human body. DIR. Froelich is
enthusiastic over the new remedy. IL Is,
he explains, of the same nature as the anti
toxine remedy used in the cure OF diph-
iberia and the consumption cure which
it Is claimed has been discovered by Cal
nornian. He claims to have made several
private experiments that have shown him
beyond all question that his remedy is not
only practical, but that it will cure the
worst case of rheumatism in less than q
week.-St. Louis Globe Democrat
