A SHIP OVER NIAGARA.
I copy from a letter which was writ-
ten by a former resident of Lancaster an ac
count of amost remarkable occurrence at
Niagara Falls sixty years ago, which the
writer of the letter witnessed, and of which
it Is doubtful if many people of today ever
heard. No history of Niagara Falls thatl
ever saw gives any account of it, although
nothing that ever occurred at the great
cataract basamore peculiar interest. The
letter is especially interesting as giving an
illustration of the manner in which people
went on excursions in the days before rail-
roads. It' is doubtful if so many people have
ever gathered at the falls at one time since
the day described in this letter. Her'c is the
extract:
"BUFFALO, Sept. 9, 1828.
“I was in hopes that I should have got
back to this town from the Niagara falls last
evening in time to have dropped. you a line'
respecting the fate of the schooner Michigan,
but owing to the delay in getting a1vay,wait—
ing for our passengers and some derangew
ment of the machinery of the steamboat and
a head wind, we did not arrive until 1 o’clock
this morning. As the exhibition yesterday
was of a novel character and has excited
much more interest than any person could
have anticipated when it was first men-
tioned, you will doubtless be anxious to learn
the particulars, and to gratify your curiosity
I will endeavor to give you the story as much
in detail as possible.
“The schooner Michigan was the largest on
Lake Erie, and too large, in fact, to enter the
various harbors of the lake, and, being some-
what decayed in her uppers, the thought
struck the owner, Maj. Frazer, formerly of
New York. that she would answer the .pur-
pose of testing the fate of a vessel that by ac-
\ cident might approach too near the stu-
pendous cataract of Niagara, and also of the
fate of animals that might be caught in the
rapids of those swift rolling waters and-car.
find over the falls.
“The proprietors of the large public houses
at the falls, on both sides of the river, and of
stages and steamboats, made 11p a purse to
purchase the schooner, aware that they would
be repaid by the company which the exhi-
bition would attract, and in the calculation
they were not deceived.
“For seveial davs previous to the 8th the
stages came crowded, as well as the canal
boats, so much so that it was difficult to find
a conveyance to the falls; and such was the
interest that the descent was the only topic
of conversation among all classes. 0n the
night of the 7th wagons filled with country
people rattled through this town all night,
and on Saturday morning Buffalo itself
seemed to be moving in a mass toward the
point of attraction. To accommodate those
who could not find a passage in carriages,
live steamboats had advertised to leave
here on Satm'day morning ‘ They were
the Henry Clay, William Penn, Pi-
oneer, Niagara and Chippewa, being
all the steamboats on Lake Erie except
the Superior. Tho Chippewa. was appointed
to tow down the pirate schooner (as she was
termed), the Michigan, which service she per-
formed. I took my passage on board this
boat, and we got under way before the
others, passed through the basin ~at Block
Rock, and about a. mile below the rock took
in tow the vessel destined to make the dread-
ful plunge. As soon as we got under way
the scene became interesting. The sun shone
in full splendor, the waters of the Erie were
placid, there being scarcely 11 ruffle upon its
surface, and a few miles astci'n of us four
steamers crowded with passengers, and with
bands of music on board, were plowing their
way down the rapids of Niagara. 0111' little
boat towed the Michigan as far as Yale’s
Landing, :1. British shore within three miles
of the falls, where she anchored, and at this
place the Chippewa landed her passengers as
well as the William Penn, and they were
conveyed from there to the falls in vehicles
of all descriptions. The three other steamers
landed their passengers on the American
side.
“Three o‘clock was the hour appointed to
weigh anchor on board the Michigan. The
task of towing 1101' from Yale’s Landing to
the rapids, and a most hazardous one it was,
was int-rusted to Capt. Rough, the oldest
captain on the lake. With a yawl boat and
five oarsmen, of stout hearts and strong
arms, the old captain got the schooner under
way, and towed her till within one~q11a1 tor
of a mile of the first rapids. and within half
amile of the tremendouspr cipice, as near
as they dared approach. Cutting her adrift,
she passed majestically 011,1v1111e the oarsmen
of. the yawl had to pull for their lives to
make themselves safe. Indeed, such were
the fears of the men, as I have understood,
that on approaching near the rapids they cut
the tow line before they had orders from
their commander.
"And now we approach the interesting
moments of the exhibition. The high grounds
on both sides of the American and British
shores were lined with people, having a full
view of the rapids and of the approach of the
vessel, and now it was that a thousand fears '
and expectations were indulged, as the Mich-
igan, unguided by human agency, ap-
proached, head on, the first rapid 01' descent,
and apparently keeping the very course
that the most skillful navigator would
have pursued, having an American ensign
flying from her bowsprit and the British
jack displayed at her stern. She passed
the first rapid unhurt, still head, on,
making a plunge, shipping :1. sea, and rising
from it in beautiful style. In her descent
over the second her masts went by the board,
at the same moment affording those who
have never witnessed a shipwreck a speci-
men of tho spars of a ship at sea in a wreck.
4::pectation of her fate was now at the high-
est; she swung around and presented her
broad side to the dashing and foaming wa-
ter, and afterreinaining stationary amoment
01' two, was, by its force, swung 1',ound
stern 1'01 0111051: and, 11 av iiip,r passed the third
rapid, sho bilged, but carried her hull ap-
parently whole between Grass Island
and the British shore to the Horseshoe,
over which she was carried stern foremost
and launched into the abyss below. In her
fall she was dashed to pieces. I went below
the falls immediately of tor the descent, and
the river presented a singular appearance
from the thousands of floating fragments,
there being scarcely to be seen any two
boards nailed together, and many 'of her
timbers were broken into ‘ twenty pieces.
Such was the eagerness of the multitude
present to procure a pieco‘of her that before
sunset :1 great part of her was carried away.
“I believe I have already informed you of
the animals 011 hoard. They consisted of a
buflalo from the Rocky mountains, two bears
from Green bay and Grand river, two foxes.
a raccoon, 'zidog, anal: and four geese. The
fate of those y on will probably wish to learn.
IVhen the vcssel was left to her fate they
were let loose§on deck, except the buffalo, who
11115 enclosed in a temporary pen. The two
bears left the vessel shortly after she began
to descend the rapids, and swan. ashore, 110t-
withstauding the rapidity of the current. 011
reaching the British shore they were taken.
The buffalo was seen to pass over the falls,
but was never seen afterward. Before
the vessel reached the first J'apids -
those who had glasses could see one of
the bears climbing the mast, and the foxes,
etc., were also running up and down; but
nothing was seen of them after the schooner
passed ovcr. The only live animals of the
crcsv that passed over the falls were two
geese. they were taken up unhurt. Maj.
Frazer obtained one, and an English gentle-
man purchased Lho other for $2. Respecting
thecfl'igics. the only one I saw below the
falls was Gen. Jackson, apparently unin-
jured, throwing his arms about and knock-
ing his legs together in the eddies, as though
he was the only one of the crew that escaped
unhurt.
“The calculations are various as to the
number of persons assembled on both shores.
Some estimate them as low as 15,000_and
others at 30,000. The greatest body of people
were on the American side. Goat Island for
a considerable distance exhibited a dense
column of persons, and the bridge erected
from Goat Island, which is built a hundred
feet over the rapids, was also crowded, and
temporary booths, made with the boughs of
trees, skirted both shores. As we passed down
the Niagara we had a full view of the whole
distance from Buffalo of the hundreds of
vehicles of all descriptions passing towards
the falls. and as the weather has been uncom-
monly hot and dry for a long time the roads
presented uninterrupted columns of dust as
far as the eye could extend. In fact, so
much larger was the assemblage than was
anticipated that. notwithstanding the pro-
prietors of the public houses had laid in an
unusual supply of refreshments, they had
not provided sufficient for one-half the peo-
ple, and thousands were unable to obtain a
inciithful of anything. You may judge
of the situation of matters when I as-
sure you that i stopped at Forsyth’s about
4 o‘clock p. m., after climbing up his
everlasting steps from the bottom of the
falls, and was unable to obtain even acracker
or a glass of water; and this was the case at
Brown‘s also. 0n the American side,.I learn
that everything catable and drinkable was
consumed before one-half the visitors had ob-
tained anything.
“So well pleased are the people with this
grand and novel aquatic exhibition that
nh'eady they are talking about getting up
something more splendid next year. In this
the tavern keepers and stage proprietors will
heartily join, as the present frolic has af-
forded them a fine harvest for some timo.”_-.-J

GLIMPSE OF THE DRIED- FRUIT IN-
DUSTRY OF WESTERN NEW YORK.
The Orchards of the Farming Conimunlty
the 01111:: Sources of Their Wealth—F.1-
tcnt of the Drying Business—Cost of
Transportation—Consumption.
Rochester is the recognized center of the
evaporated and dried fruit industry of- the
United States, which during recent years has
assumed very large proportions, the goods
being shipped‘ in large quantities to all of the
leading markets of the world. No finer fruit
is produced on this continent than is grown
in the territory embraced under the name of
Western New York, comprising some tWelve
of the most fertile and. richest counties of
the Empire state. The cultivation of fruit,
especially apples, has superseded all other
agricultural products and has proved the
most remunerative to the growers. The 01'.
chards of the farming community are the
chief sources of their wealth, and the indus-
try' 1s prosecuted with unabated vigor. largely
aided by the experience, skill and resources
of the great nurseries of Rochester, famed
throughout the world.
Thousands of tons of apples are produced
every season from a quality of fruit hereto-
fore wasted and allowed to not on the;
ground, and which new forms a nice ineom'e
to the grower. It is in the utilizptfou of these
waste products that the deuccatiiiu of fruit
becomes a valuable and indispensableadjunct
to every fruit grower, and the business may
be considered as yet in its infancy.
EXTENT or rm: nusmss.
Within a radius of forty miles of Rochester
there are more than 1,500 evaporators, from
. the small farm house drier, of a capacity of .
twenty-five bushels a day, to the large steam
evaporators, drying 800to 1,000 bushels of _
apples each twenty-four hours. These eva~
poratoi' s give employment during the autumn
and early winter months to at least 30,000
bands, who average from $5to $12 a week,-
according to experience and usefulness.
New factories are erected every season, prev-
in g that the business is profitable when pro-
pei'ly and economically conducted._ Constant
care and scrupulous cleanliness are the first
elements of success in evaporating good
fruit.
The production during the swan of 1887-
may be well considered the largest since the
inception of the business, some fifteen years,
ago. A careful estimate places the total
quantity at about 30,000,000 pounds, worth at
first cost some $2,”, 000. To produce this
quantity of apples it required 5, 000, 000 bush-
els of apples, 15 ,000tons anthracite coal, and
the constant attendance, night and _day, of
an army of men, women and children, uum
boring 25,000 to 30, 000. The water elimi-
nated in the process of evaporation amounted
to 225,000 tons, reducing the bulk of the green
fruit to about one-eighth of its original
weight, each 100 pounds yielding when prop-
erly evaporated twelve pounds on an aver-
age. The fruit' is usually packed in cases of
two cubit feet measurement, holding fifty
pounds net, the product of say eight and one
half bushels of green apples.
COST or msronrarmlv.
The advantages in freight alone will be
apparent from the following comparison,
showing the cost of shipping one case to
Liverpool, England, which at existing
freight rates will cost a little less than thirty
cents, while in the green or fresh state in
barrels the same quantity would cost $2.25,
and in the canned state almost $2.10, without
considering the deterioration of the green
fruit and the dangers of fermentationto the
canned article. the apple in the evaporated
state being transported without any danger
of deterioration or decay. The refuse of the
apples, such as the parings and cores, are
dried and form the base of all the cheap jel-
lies manufactured at present. The quan-
tity produced last season will aggregate some
12 1,009 000 pounds, so that notaparticle of
the fruit' is wasted.
The principal consuming countries abroad
are Germany, England, Belgium, Holland
and France, in which the new product has
entirely displaced the old fashioned spn dried
fruit. There were. shipped alonetoFrance
during 1887 some 18,000 barrels of a quality
known as chopped or sliced apple, which is
dried without being eithmtpared or cored,
and is used chiefly for the production of
cider, cheap wines and distillation when the
vineyards of France suffer from the phyliox-
era. Some 4,000,000 pounds were exported
during the season, of which more than one-
half were shipped from Rochester.—Brad-

BELLS, FLAGS AND BEGGARS.
Characteristic Features 'of’ the Burmese
Temples—Ghostly Humanity.
But however different may be the individ-
ual details of the great Burmese tern les,
there are three characteristic features 11 011
are never wanting to any of them, via: bells,
flags and beggars. The flags in particular
are quite a specialty, for as the commonest
form of offering in Burmah is a piece of 811'
ver paper or a strip of colored cloth, every
shrine is a perfect rag fair of fluttering
shreds of red, green, blue and white, fastened
to long slender saplings or to the railings of
the shrine itself. As a matter 5 of course.
these impromptu pennons become dirtier and
dirtier as time goes on, till at length the neu-
tral tint fairly masters the original color. ,
The bells—which are usually about. half
the height of an ordinary man, and hear an
inscription setting forth their weight, the
date of their casting, and the name of the
person who presented them to the temple-—
are suspended a few feet above .the ground,
between two upright posts, along the sides of
the paved platform already described. Be-
side each lies a stout club or the horn of an
elk, which, when struck 'with force upon the
edge or side of the bell, drawe fortha volume
of sound that fully explains the name of
. “Maha Gunga (great sweet voice), given to
their largest bell by the people of Burmah.
This sort of bell ringing is the invariable pre-
lude to the recital of a prayer by any devout

for giils, attended by 20,000 scholars; there
are over 2,500 teachers, male and female,
most of them holding certificates from the
normal school, 331 secondary. schools with
1,400 teachers and assistants, and with more
than 15,000 pupils, 35 gymnasium with 210

Warning Against 111.11- Dyes.
The American Analyst comes to the front
to warn the women against the use of hair‘
dyes, to produce “the delicate golden shade
so much admired by the court circles of
Europe and the high society of the United
States." The three constituents of tho nos-
trums used to produce this shade of color are
peroxide of hydrogen, aqua. regia and bronz-
01' .1 acid. The first is the most harmless, but

leads to discharges of the scalp 0f lymph and
blood. 011 the' wbdle, perhaps, the women

OLD FASHIONED “MUSTBR.”
The Colonel with His Cocknde Hat and
hauling Epaulets—Reviewing the MI-
nth—Kettle Drum and Squeaky Fife.
A Flat and Skull Fight.
BillArp thus discusses old times in Georgia
arid the old fashioned training day scenes:
An old fashioned muster was equal to a
modern “Mardi Gras." The governor (was
the commander- .in—cbief, but as he could not
be personally present the militia were re-
viewed by proxy. Every county had an aide-
de-camp with the rank of colonel. He held
his rank and title as long as the governor
held his office, and he was expected to holler
for him and talk for him and boom him. and,
if necessary, he must fight for him on a suit-
able occasion. If the governor failed of re-
election, tbeSe coionels had to retire too, and
a new set were appointed, but the old set
never lost their title, and so the state in
course of time got pretty full of colonels.
0n muster day the colonel wore a cockade
hat anus red plume and epaulets and a
long brass sword 'and big brass spurs, and
horse: pistols in the bolsters of his saddle, and
he and his personal staff rode up and down:

armed with shotguns and some with rifles or

or squatted down at pleasure, and about half
the time were hollering for water.

Brooks was the chief musician in my day, ‘
and would not have exchanged this 9filce

by. They never marched or kept step by the
music. but they got 'alor'ig somehow by walk-
tug and trotting and pacing and fox trotting

my father to come and seehim. Old and
wrinkled and cadaverous, he motioned to be
propped up in his bed, and then, with an in-

his fiddle that lay upon the shelf near by,
and it was handed to him. Hugging ’to his
old bosom he'smiled amid bis tears and whis-
pered: “I .wish. that} could play you one

with his left hand closed hard and rigid
around the neck of his violin.

It was just like gameoocks crowing in the
barnyard, and, like the cooks two of them
so'ou' got together and went to fighting, and
everybody stood around and shouted, “Hands
off, gentlemen; stand back, gentlemen.
Hands off; let 'em fight fair and square.”
‘And they fought hard and fought long, and
when one "of them got to ' be the bottom dog
in the fight and hollered “en011gh',” the show
was over. unless the victor dared ,to crow
again, and had to tackle another rooster. ' I'
have known, Nick Rawlins to whip three
brag men in one evening, and Nick'was no
bad man either. Everybody liked Nick. He
had fit and font and fought until he had lost
a finger and a snip out of his nose and a
piece of his left ear, but he was never mad.
Nick told me not along ago that he never did
love to fight, but when he courted Betsy
Jane she ’lowed that when she married a
man be had to be a man all over. inside and
out, and so he. got to fighting on her account.
But these old times are gone-gone never .

Japanese Coating for Ships.
The Japanese admiralty has finally do-
clded u'pon' coating the bottoms of all their
ships with a material closely akin to the lac-
qner to which we are so much accustomed as
a specialty of Japanese furniture work. Al-
though the preparation differs somewhat
from that commonly known as Japanese
lacquer, the base of it is the same—viz, gum
lac, as it is commonly termed. Experiments
which have been long continued by the im-
perial naval department have resulted in af-
fording proof that the new coating material
remains fully emcient for three years, and
the report'on the subject demonstrates that,
although the first coat of the material is three
times the amount of that hitherto employed,
the amount of dockings required will be re-
duced by its use to the proportion of one to
six. A vessel of the [lamina Pacific fleet
has already been coated with the new prep-
aration, which, the authorities say, com-
pletely Withstands the fouling influences so
common in tropical waters.
It occupied the native inventor many
years to overcome the tendency of the lac to
harden and crack, but having successfully
accomplished this, the finely polished surface

Woman's Crown of Glory.
A woman's hair may grow to the length of
six feet. Mine. Iless, of Paris, refused 5,000
francs for IICI‘ “cranial covering,” which was
about that 'iiicasui'cniciit. Four hundred
hairs of average thickness would cover an
inch of space. The blondo bell has about
140,000 filaments to comb and brush, while
the red haired beauty has to be satisfied with-
88,000; the brown haired damsel may have
100,000; the black haired but 102,000. New
ladies consider that they carry some forty or
fifty miles of hair 011 their heads; the fair
haired may even have to dress seventy miles
of threads of gold every morning. A German
experimentalist has proved that a single
hair will suspend four ounces without break-
ing, stretching under the process and c011-
ti'ncting again. But the hair thus heavily
weighted must be dark brown, for blondo
hair breaks down under two and a. half
ounces. No wonder then that “beauty can
draw love by a single hair.”—-Emilo Nou-
veau in Philadelphia Times.
Two Stcnographers in Congress.
I know of only two practical stenographers
in congress. One is Hitt, of Illinois, who
was formerly assistant secretary of state and
secretary of the Paris legation, and the other
is Ford, of Michigan, who before he became
a congressman was an official court stenog—
rapher. Mr. Ford has found his accom-
plishment of the utmost use to him since he
has been in Washington. During the tariff
debate, whenever a speaker said anything
that he thought could be refuted, he would
take it down in the mysterious characters of
his art, and when his time came to answer
he often surprised his adversaries by the way
in which be quoted their remarks. He has
taken verbatim reports of many bright
thing, that have been said in the house, and
doubtless has a good stock of effective cam-
paign material on hand—New York Tribune.
Care of the Body.
Most of those who die between 25 and 60,
unless they die by accident, die by some in-
discretion—such as the over indulgence of
appetite, or the neglect of food when needed,
or the ovei'strain of business, or exposure to
changes of the temperature without corre-
sponding changes of‘ clothing. It is intelli-
gent caution that saves sickness; and this
caution ought tobc in possession and exer-
cise before middle life. It is so much easier
to prevent serious sickness than it is to se-
cure recovery from it. Hence it is that many
who are deficient in vigor in early life out-
live the vigorous and careless—Once a IVeek.
The Aggressive Eucalyptus.
The inhabitants of Oakland, Cal, whoa
few years ago imported large numbers of
gum and eucalyptus trees from Australia as
fever destroyers, have come to the conclu-
sion that the roots of these Australian mon-
sters do more harm under ground than the
branches do‘ good above, and have set to
work to destroy them. The roots havoc.

trees within their reach, breaking drain
pipes. cracking pavements and loosening

ion—Chicago Herald.
Locating the Boundary.
The English have a happy way of avoiding
lawsuits about boundaries. They form a
procession on Ascension day, "when the
clergymen, parochial officers and parish-
ioners of note, followed by the boys of the
parish school, go to the parish boundaries,
and with peeled willow wands strike or
touch them. Formerly, at any important
boundary, one of the boys was soundly
beaten, so as to make a deep impression on
his mind of the exact location of that bound-
ary.—Globe-Democrat. -
Russian Small Coins.
It is said that in the southern part of R115-
sia the peasants use a coin of such small
value that it would take 250,000 of them
to buy an American dollar, and these coins
are so scarce that a man who has a. hundred
is looked upon as rich, and one who has
a thousand is considered very wealthy.
It is strange to think a person wealthy who
owns two-fifths ofa cent, and comfortably
well of! on one-twenty-flftb of a. ccnt.-——Bos-
ton Budget.
What the Chin Means.
An old writer says: “A long chin declar-
ethaman to be peaceable, yet a. babbler.
They that have little chins are much to be
avoided and taken hood of, for they are full
of impiefzy and wickedness, and are spies like
unto serpents. If the end of the chin be
round, itis the sign of nice manners; but
the chin of a. real man is square ”—Chi—
cago Herald.
Phonetic Chinese Symbols.
»Missionary Beach, of China, claims to
have succeeded in representing the Chinese
spoken language bya. system of clear and
simple phonetic symbols, fashioned after the
Pitman style. It is said that an educated
foreigner can learn the system in from two
to five hours, and a bright Chinaman in ten
hours—New York Sun. _

No Small Change.
Small change is extremely scarce in Hon-
duras, and in a number of villages, and even
in Tegucigalpa, it is sometimes difficult to
change a dollar. The sale of articles, such
asfood, cigars, etc, ismade difficult or im-
possible, as no small change exists. ——Cliicago

Lowest Degradation.
The lifting of a man’s self up in his own
