Officer John Dineen had the experience
Of fishing man out OF the icy waters
Of the new river channel at 2 o'clock
this morning The man was Moses 81.
Peter Of Montpelier, and that he is alive
to-day is perhaps due TO the fact that
lie was in badly intoxicated condition
when he fell into the channel distance
of 20 feet, for it has been said many
times that a drunken man fares better
than a sober man in an accident.
st. Peter says that he has not been
in the city since last June until he ar
rived yesterday afternoon, and he did
not know anything about the river chan
mel when he took his early morning
stroll out Prospect street and walked of
the wall in front Of Clark's feed store.
He dropped at least 30 feet onto the ice
and then rolled into a hole in the ice
and laid for some time in two feet OF
icy water, with his head above the water
line.
Fortunately st. Peter was not stunned
BY the fall so that he had the free use
Of his lungs, and his cries for help were
heard by the night watehman who at

man, saw that he could do nothing alone,
SO went to the police station and got off
Ger Dineen. The officer tried to get down
into the channel by tying a rope around
bis body with the watchman holding the
rope, but the watchman was unable to
hold him. The officer then went to the
fire station and got fireman Heney and
a long ladder The ladder was put down
onto the ice and the three men descend
ed and pulled the halffrozen man out
of the water.
That st. Peter was not washed under
the ice was only due to the water being
shallow at that place. He was carried
into the police station and stripped OF
his clothes and wrapped in blankets He
WAS suffering terribly from the effects
OF the cold water and he was bruised
about his chest and arms.
