FROM SuihIuuN y ''NllN. !
Theodore walters came near fur-
nishng himself as the annual victim
to the Northfork last evening. With
number of companions he was bath
ing in the river. The boys were div.
ing of the apron of the dam into the
deep water below, and upon one OF
these trips Theodore dove true to the
bottom of the deep water and failed to
come to the surface. Joe Eble was
with the party and when his compan-
ion failed to appear he quickly real
ized that something was wrong Div
ing into the water he caught hold OF
Walters body and after considerable
effort succeeded in floating him to the
bank Of the stream. Walters was
practically exhausted and n few min
utes more would have finished him.
Eble to whose presence OF mind and
strength Walters owes his life, was
somewhat weakened by the strain,
but was all right as soon as he i'm
bibed little atmosphere. The history
of the stream has been that 1t must
have one victim nearly every year to
serve as an example to keep others
from venturing into dangerous situa-
tions. The river is fed by many cold
springs in the bed OF the stream, and
II person bathing happens to strike
the cold water from one Of them the
shock to his system is pretty sure to
cause him to collapse
If boys will swim in the Northfork,
and it seems they will, too much eau
tion cannot be used. II is never safe
to go into the river at any point alone,
and never with companions unless
there is at least one strong swimmer
in the crowd 1t is hoped that 1t will
not be necessary to record a drowning
in the Northfork this year. Let the
example of young Walters serve the
purpose.
