Arthur Holden. the high diver. had g
narrow escape last night In making 8 back
sOmersault from the roof of the Garden to
a small tank on the main floor he lost his
balance and fell into the tank with such
force as to daze him. He floundered about
in the tank for nearly "A minute. The
spectators in the mean time were becom-
ing anxious, and buystander named Big
by threw off his coat and jumped in to
rescue him. A special officer has about
to follow. when Holden reappeared. Holden
recently met with accident which hurt
his hand badly and necessitated keeping it
In bandageS. He attributed his loss of
balance to this fact.
Sportsmen and members Of the Audubon
societies are much interested in a big
hawk trap. which has just arrived from
England, and was placed on exhibition in
the Garden yesterday. This trap catches
hawks alive. and is intended to overcome
the objections of those who assert that
some hawks are beneficial and should not
be destroyed. These can be released and
the vicious hawks held. The trap captured
more than sixty hawks on an English game
preserve a short time before it was shipped
to America for exhibition.
