brutal. King Johns claim to immor-
tallty was his enforced signature to
the Magma Charter in l2l5. The
lecturers description Of the Barnes
organization and demand Of this great
Bin Of Rights was graphic and true to
history. The parallel he drew between
the Barnes pledge to each other 'be-
fore the high altar and the signing
of the Declaration of Independence
on July 4, I7T6, was striking.
Then he passed TO the life, character
and deeds of John Bunyon, that Won
derfnl author Of the 18th century,
whose "Pilgrlms' Progress won and
still holds the admiration Of the Chris
tIan world.
Then came John Hampden and the
story of his life, his struggle for more
liberty for the common people Of Eng
land was told in the strongest lang
uage, quoting Hume, Macauly, Dick
ems, Morley and Others on the grand
character Of this great hero Of the
18th century.
Next came John Pym, the founder
Of political parties and Of party gov
eminent, the champion Of good gov
eminent, the stalwart Puritan, the
enemy Of Official competition and the
prosecution Of the Earl Of STAFFORD,
and the beloved leader Of the plain
people OF England.
Finally, John Elliott, the brave and
brilliant young man, who demanded
an enactment establishing the indie
dendence Of Parliament, its freedom
from the control and dietatlon Of
Charles the First, his excoriation OF
the Kings ministers in his memorable
protest in 1925, his four years conine-
ment in London Tower and his death
all was passed in review and COM
mented upon In a vigorous style.

TRIP OVER NIAGARA.
Mrs. Taylor, a Widow, in a Barrel,
Shoots the Rapids, Drops Over the
Horseshoe Pals, Escaping
With Slight Injuries.

NIAGARA FALLS, n. V. oct "a
At last the falls Of Niagara have been
conquered, and by a woman, for this
afternoon Mrs. Anna Edison Taylor, a
widow, safely passed over them in a
barrel. 1t was beyond any conception
but her own that she would live Otell
the story. But she is alive tonight
and the doctors say as soon as she gets
over the shack she will be all right.
At 4,05 O'Clock the barrel was set
adrift and Mrs. Taylor was at the
mercy Of currents in waters that never
before have been known to spare a
human life From the spot where the
rOwboat left the barrel the current
runs frightfully swift and soon breaks
over reefs that cause the water to toss
in fury. The barrel was weighted
with a 2,0O0-pound anvil, and it float
ed nicely in the water, Mrs. Taylor
apparently retaining an upright posi-
ton for the greater part Of the trip.
In passing over the horseshoe fan the
barrel kept toward the Canadian side
at a point 300 feet from the center. 1t
dropped over the fall at 4:23 O'Clock.
In less than a minute It appeared at
the base Of the fall and was swept
down STREAM. The current cast it
aside in an eddy, and, floating back
up stream, 1t was held between two
eddies until captured at 4:s0 O'Clock.
AS IL wa landed on a rock Ia the
river II was difficult 10 handle, but
several men soon had the hatch OF.
Mrs. Taylor was alive and conscious,
but before she could be taken out Of
the barrel u was necessary to saw a
portion Of the top away. She is suffer-
ing great fnem the shock. She has a
three-inch cut IN her scalp back Of the
right ear, but how or when she got il
she does not know. She complains Of
pain between the shoulders, but this
is thought to be from the fact that
her shoulders were thrown back dur
ing the plunge, as she had her arms in
straps and these undoubtedly saved
her neck from breaking. While thank
ing God for sparing her life, she warns
everybody against trying to make tie
trip. Mrs. Taylor is 43 years old. She
was born in Auburn, N. Y, and has
crossed the American continent eight
times.
