execution as sometimes has been done
in war by those loaded with bullets
and canister and aimed to kill. Sky
rockets, anvil and powder explosions
and the premature discharge of Fourth
OF July cannon help to complete the
list Of mishaps. In several instances
persons were killed through runaway
accidents due directly to fire works.
A fire loss OF sl23,325 was caused by
fireworks, In addition to the injury to
human life.
In Chicago one boy was reported
killed, against one death last year, but
the accidents were less numerous
There were no costly fires in the city
Frankfort, KY, alone suffered a fire
loss of $4,000 due to firecrackers,
Other cities also suffered heavily.
Out of this total of 1925 persons hurt
in an attempt to be patriotic, 4i2 can
attribute their injuries to firecrackers
and dynamite torpedoes. The deadly
cannon firecracker did most OF this
execution. Out Of 152 injuries by fire
arms in sixty-seven cities, the toy pis

including the blowing up OF many vii

Fool Killer Passes
Niagara Rapids Alive

Niagara Falls, n. v, July 9.-Peter
Nicsson Of Chicago, or Mr.. Bowser as
he styles himself. went through the
Whirlpool rapids of the Niagara rapids
today In the presence of about 10000
persons on his craft, the Fool Killer
The boat was towed to rock about n
mile above the rapids and secured. The
point was difficult to reach by officials
from either the American or Cana
dian sides, who might have been dis
posed to interfere with the adventure.
Shortly after 3 o'clock Mr. Bowser
was seen on his boat. a little later
James Labland pulled up in a rowboat
and towed the Fool Killer, with Bow
ser aboard, into the current. At 3:57
the start down stream was actually
commenced, but the tickle eddies kept
the Fool Killer drifting about until
$50, when she got into the Whirlpool
current and started for the final
plunge.
Passing under the cantilever bridge.
the boat took on the speed of an en-
press train. Bowser threw his oar far
from him and waved his cap. The
crowd saw the craft rise on the crest
of a smooth wave and then dive into
the leaping spray and disappear. The
strange craft seemed to turn over and
over like top, rolling and plunging
until 1t passed bend In the river, ana
the most perilous part of the journey
had been passed. The buoyant craft
kept on the crest of the waves until
submerged again. on the verge of the
Whirlpool. Shooting into the Whirl.
pool the Fool Killer swung around
and went down like fishing bob, but
rose again quickely. For the neX;
fifty minutes Bowser and his boat
circled around the whirlpool Shortly
before 6 o'clock the Fool Killer was
carried out to the edge of the rapids
and a line was thrown by Bowser to
the men on shore, who hauled him In.
His first question was, How is that
for Bowser?"
Bowser warmed himself at fire
built on the shore and put on dry
clothing and appeared to be little the
worse for his mad ride. Here is wha;
he says:
1t was an awful experience. The
whirlpool rapids are nothing at all like
what l thought they were. They are
many times rougher. Had known the
truth | never would have attempted
the trip. I have no idea of trying the
trip again.
