THROUGH RAPIDS IN A BARREL
Carlisle Graham Makes His Fifth
Perilous Trip at Niagara
Falls.
(By Associated Press.)

Niagara Falls. N. Y, July 15.-Carlisle
Graham yesterday afternoon made his
fifth successful voyage through the
whirlpool rapids in barrel. The start
was made from the Maid of the Mist
landing below the falls. The barrel was
caught in the eddy and circled about a
little above the cantilever bridge for
quarter Of an hour. The stronger current
in the middle Of the stream finally jerked
it out Of the eddy and into the foaming
waters of the rapids.
Passing under the second bridge the
barrel had a narrow escape from being
dashed to pieces against the stone abut-
ments of the bridge. The passage through
the rapids was swift. 1t took the barrel
five minutes to reach the eddy from the
starting point and 20 minutes to get out
of it, but it took only three and half
minutes to pass through the rapids and
the whirlpool. distance of about a
mile.
Graham was slightly bruised about
the elbows and knees, but he was 9TH
erwise unhurt.

Paludal, glum, with misdrected legs,
You hide your history as you DO your

And offer US an osseous nut to crack
Much harder than the shell upon your
back.
No evolutonist has ever guessed
Why your cold shoulder is within your
chest
Why you were disconted with a plan
The vertebrates accept, from fish TO man.
For what environment did you provide
BY pushing your internal frame outside?
How came. your ribs in this abnormal
paceg
Inside your rubber neck you hide your
face
And answer not. To science you're
sphinx
A structural epitome of missing links;
And when decapitated, still you swell
And kick and claw and scramble just as
well.
But I'll not plague thee Even here find
a touch of fellowship that makes me
kind
Sometimes a poet who has lost his head
VIII keep on scratching when he should
be dead.
