TRAGEDIES OF NIAGARA.
DEATH OF CHARLES ADDINGTON
AND KVA T> ■: FORREST.
Thrilling Experience of an Unknown
Victim in 1864 A'Man Who Has s
Dread of a Similar Fate tor Himself.
Harrisburg <Pf .) /.Viler in \'cw York Sun.
“I am going to Niagara Falls,” said a
passenger on a Pennsylvania railroad train
from Philadelphia yesterday, ‘‘and if yen
read in the papers in a day or so that some
person, known or unknown, has boon car
ried over the falls, you may bo sure that 1
have reached my destination. No: it won’t
lie me—not if I can help it. But 1 have
never been to Niagara yet that someone
did not go over the falls, either inten
tionally or accidentally, and nothing but
a positive and important business engage
ment, such as compete me to go there now.
could induce me to visit the spot which is
associated in my mind with three terrible
tragedies. I was a horrified spectator of
two most heart-rending Niagara tragedies,
slid on my third visit to the falls the other
was enacted. I have been for six weeks
trying to avoid this fourth trip, for toy
recollections of Niagara are sufficiently un
pleasant without having a fourth one to be
n perpetual shudder to me,
"My first visit to Niagara was in the
summer of ISSS, and I had been there not
more than an hour when I witnessed the
agonizing scene of a young man and a beau
tiful fair-haired child swept away by the
swift current of Goat Island and dashed
over the falls. Tho young man was Charles
Addington, and t he child was iittle Eva TV
Forrest. Tho Addingtons and Do Forrests
were prominent. Buffalo families. Young
Charles Addington was engaged to be mar
ried to Ada tie Forrest. The dav that I
paid mj' first visit to Niagara Mrs. be For
rest. Ada and her littlo sister Eva, and
r oung Addington liad come from Buffalo
for a day’s outing at the falls. They pie
nicked on Goat Island, and little Eva Inn ing
strayed away from the group her mother
enfc yotmg Addington to find her and fetch
her back. He discovered her not far away,
standing on the shore, looking at the swift
water. Thoughtlessly stealing up behind
her, he grasped the child under the ai ms
and, lifting her up, hold her out over the
water. She threw up her arms and slipped
from his hands into the river. Addington
sprang in and caught her itofore she had
been carried into the swift water. Ho suc
ceeded, after a desperate struggle, in get
ting back near enough to the shore to throw
the child Oil the bank. She had not suffi
cient strength to hold on until her mother
could grasp her. and pull her toasafe place,
and fell back into the current Addington
again seized her, but he was too much ex
hausted to make way against the swift wa
ter, and the two were carried into ihe rap
ids and disappeared together over the falls.
I was on Goat island and saw the whole oc
currence.
"In the summer of 1864 I again visited
Niagara Falls. I arrived there at night,
and early next morning 1 walked over to
Goat Island, and looking down the Ameri
can rapids what should I see but a man
clinging to an old tree trunk that had lodged
at some time in the current between the
small islands off Goat Island and the Ameri
can shore, Before I could give the alarm
the man had been discovered by others, and
the news spread rapidly. Who the man was
or how he came to do in this perilous situa
tion no one ever knew, but it was supposed
that he had been rowing across the river
-ninewhere above tbe night before, and,
losing control of his boat, hail been swept
down into the rapids, and the boat striking
the trunk, he had by some miracle gained a
ioothold upon it.
"As soon as possible after the discovery
of the man was made word was telegraphed
to Buffalo, and a party of life savers came
on a special train to the Fails to try and
rescue him. Before 10 o’clock thousands of
jierscns were gathered at every available
-pot where a sight of the unfortunate man
could be obtained. The railroads ran
special trains, and people came in convey
ances of all kinds from the surrounding
country. No one seemed at. first to know
how to go to work to be of aid to the man,
but he clung to the tree, watching every
movement that was made—how anxiously
he -watched may be imagined. It was of
course impossible to make him hear
anything that might be shouted to
him, and there was no way to give
him any directions. Finally a life
Goat was attached to a cable and let down
the rapids from the bridgo toward him.
Guide ropes were tied to it, by which it was
directed toward the log by men ou tbe shore
of the island. The plan was well calculated,
and the boat made directly for the spot
where tbe man was hanging between life
and d°ath. The assembled multitude began
to feel that in a few minutes the poor man
would be safely drawn ashore. Suddenly the
byat was caught by a swirl of the rapids.
The cable parted like a weak kite string.
The boat rushed past, the man like a flash,
and was carried over the fails.
“This sad ending to that effort to rescue
the man showed the life savers that there
was no hope for the man in that plan. .Sev
eral others were suggested, and finally one
was adopted which it took until late in
the afternoon to get in readiness. In all
i hose long hours of suspense I don't believe
one of the spectators moved from his tracks.
Everything else about Niagara Kalis was
forgotten except the terrible scene of a fel
low-being hanging on tbo verge of death
and patiently awaiting the success or fail
ure of the efforts that were being made to
rescue him. The plan adopted was to fasten
a strong cable securely to the American
'bore, attach a staunch raft to it, carry the
loose end of the cable over to the island,
and let it belly down with the raft to
the tree trunk. By this menus it was
hoped that, the raft, after reaching the log,
and the man had crawled upon it, conkl be
-teadily drawn to a small island between
fbe man and Goat Island, from which small
island his rescue would be easy. Some food
■i nd a glass of brandy were floated on the
raft, with a rope and written instructions
to the man as to w hat was to be done and
what be must do. The raft moved down
and reached the tree trunk in safety. As
the man dropped from his perilous perch
"pen the raft, lashed himself to it with the
rope according to instructions, and then
eagerly seized the brandy and food, such a
shout as went from the thousands of people
who had watched the proceedings
with beating hearts and bated breath
"as never heard before. It could bo
heard above the angry roar of Niagara. The
raft, was slowly - pulled toward the small
island. Everything soeme ! working to a
charm. The tension on the feelings of the
spectators was so great that many fainted
away. People were sobbing on every ride.
■Suddenly the raft stopped. The cable,
drawn as it was, beneath the water, nought
on some obstruction. All efforts to loosen
it were unavailing, Ono groan of agony
arose from the great crowd. The life-savers
ioiled and tugged at the rope, but still it
"lung to the obstruction. It was now near
'■unset. The man on the raft had unlashed
'he ropes that had been his security against
'he possibility of his being washed off by
the current, and joined his efforts with the
others to loosen ihe rope, lie was pale,
haggard and wiUl-lookiug from his hours
of suspense. Suddenly he kneeled on the
raft, over which the water was sweeping
swiftly, and remained there for a moment
as if in prayer. Then he sprang into the
raging current and pulled bravely for the
bland, which was only' a few feet away.
H first he gained visibly against, the cur
ivnt. and the thought that he would surely
save himself found utterance in auother
joyful shout from the spectators. Bntwhpn
be was almost, within reach of the shore bis
■ 'rength began to fail. The spice between
bira and the island gradually widened.
Then every one knew that all hope was
gone. He made a few more desperate
strokes, hut the wild waters seized him and
pitching and tossing and whirling him, bur- |
ried him to the brink of the great cataract. I
when he reached the edge of the falls he j
"as thrown upward from the water until
bis whole length came into view standing I
upright, and he disappeared as if he had
made a voluntary leap over the precipice.
Vi idle he was being dashed to and over the
falis not abound was uttered by one in that
vast crowd of horror-stricken spectators,
and, terrible as was the scene, not an eye
was turned away from him as he was oar
i ted along to liis destruction. The moment
he disappeared in the face of the cataract
ono heartrending shriek went up from the
crowd, and, tho fascination of tu scene be
ing broken, tbe spectators fled from it as if
from some frightful pursuer. The poor vic
tim’s body was never found nor was his iden
tity evenestnblished. Ason bit previous visit
to the falls, the place had no longer any- at
traction for me, and the first train carried
me away.
‘‘ln the spring of ISS4, twenty years after
my second visit, I made up my mind to
conquer my aversion to going again to the
place which I could scarcely think of with
out a shudder, and resolved to make another
effort to see the greatest of Am -ricau nat
ural wonders. Although twice on the
ground, I had not yet seen the tails from be
low; in fact, I could not be said to have seen
them at all. T had business in Buffalo in
April three years ago, and after getting
through with it went on to the fulls. There
was ice there vet, 1 remember, and, all
things else being equal, the place was
not particularly cheerful. 1 made up my
mind to go strainght to the Goat Island
bridge and brave my feelings by taking a
look at, the spot where I had seen that
doomed man struggling for life twenty
years before. I did so and was greutlv sur
prised to see the old tree trunk to which the
man clung for so many hours still rising out
of the boiling and leading water. I had not
been there Jong when I not iced a great, com
motion among the people on the island, and
ill a few minutes learned t hat not
only one but two men had gone over
the falls some time during tho night
before, and. that the clothing of one
of them had beon found, and evidences that
ohe of the men, who were brothers-in-law,
was a murderer and suicide. Ho had lured
his brother-in-law to the island, killed him,
thrown his body into the rapids, and then
jumped in himself and followed it over the
falls. The names of the parties wefc Vodder
and Pearson, f did not wait for more min
ute details, but hurried to the Erie railway
station and caught the first train eastward.
‘‘Now, as J said, l am making my fourth
trip to the falls, this time an enforced one?
Do you wonder 1 am nervous and a tritie sup
erstitious about going there? I hope there
will be no fatality connected with this
visit, but if vou should read about any one
going over Niagara Falls within the next
day or two, you may be certain that lam
there.”
THE EXILED FRENCHMAN.
Max O’Hell Discusses His Countrymen
Away from France.
From ihe Liverpool Courier.
A Frenchman out of France is very much
like a fish out of water.
Of al! tho European people the French
are those who emigrate the least. Their
country is large and rich enough to feed
them and give them employment, the family
ties are very close, tho ambition for
great wealth seldom exists, and they prefer
living on a snug iittle income in France to
acquiring a large fortune abroad. Not one
boy is brought up with a view to being sent
abroad when he is grown up. Most French
men whom you meet settled out of France
arc men whose career was blighted by tbe
political events of the last thirty or forty
years.
Once domiciled in a foreign land, how
ever, the Frenchman soon forms with other
exiled compatriots clubs and societies where
their characteristics come out in full light;
gaiety and goodfellowship reign, but tem
pered, if one may say so, by the little na
tional failings, jealousy and yearning after
elective titles. Thc.se societies, we see, are
subdivided into sections, committees, com
missions, etc , each having a president, a
vice president, a treasurer, a secretaire
rapporteur. a secretnire-archiviste, and
what not. For that matter you will never
see half a dozen Frenchmen meet round the
table for the discussion of anything but a
good dinner without appointing one of their
number president, another vice president,
etc. Each one must have a title, and if
there are six members amt only five titles to
lie dispensed, the one who is left out sends
in his resignation and goes about abusing
the other live. It seems up to now as if the
republic had failed to make the French peo
ple real republicans.
Frenchmen when in exile do not allow
either pride of birth, education or former
position to bo an obstacle in the way of
earning a living, if only humble opportuni
ties present themselves. Once I was shown
an aristocratic-looking countryman of mine
in a fashionable restaurant in London, wash
ing glasses. This plucky Frenchman had
tal en to glass-washing, for w hich he earned
a shilling a night, and his dinner, an attend
ant something more suited to his acquire
ment and requirements. Like many others,
he bad fled his country because he had held
a post under the Commune, ami was
••wanted” by - M. Thiers. If he had the tra
ditional half crown in his pocket by the
time ho reached England it was as much as
he could boast in hard cash, and so he
bravely accepted the work I saw him at. I
was not surprised to learn some time ago
that, he is now manager and partner of one
of Ihe large French houses of business es
tablished for the sale of French manufac
tured goods in England.
If you go to a certain cafe in Regent street,
London, between 12 and 1, you may - almost
every day see, seated at one of the tables, n
tall, (bin, gentlemanly Frenchman of about
50. This is no less a personage than the first
cook in London. It is said t hat he makes
an income of over £2,000, #IO,OOO a y ear.
This is how ho earns his living. In his own
brougham he sets out toward evening for
the house of some rich man who is going to
give a dinner at which every dish must be
above criticism. Here he alights, and
makes for the kitchen, goes through the
process of tasting all the soups, sauces and
made dishes, advising, when bis palate sug
gests, a little more, salt here, a pinch of
herbs there, a dash of sugar in this entree,
a suspicion of onion in that salmi)!. , etc.
This done he pockets his fee of two guineas,
and drives to the next dinner-giving patron
who has bidden him to his least in this
strange fashion. His nightly list comprises
many houses all through the London season.
A Bone in His Lung.
From the Washington Star.
Cincinnati, Nov. 3.—On Nov. 13 throe
years ago .Mrs. Winter, wife of George
Winter, while eating dinner swallowed a
bone about the size of a Navy bean. Phy
sicians were sent for, but the case seemed
hopeless. Opiates to soothe the dreadful
sufferings of the lady were administered.
Though 48. years old she rallied, and then
begun a systematic course of treatment.
Dr. Zipperlen took the case in hand, but
pronounced it incurable. His diagnosis
was that the bone had lodged in the lung,
and as its removal was an utter impossibili
ty, decay of the longs must ultimately - set
in, and death was only a question of time.
During all this time Mrs. Winter suffered
the severest, tortures. Hemorrhages suc
ceeded each other in rapid succession. Her
coughing spells were continuous, and
wasted her from a robust woman to a
mere skeleton. Last Sunday an event
in the nature of a miracle occurred, accord
ing to the Enquiirr. As usual Mrs. Winter
awoke with a terrible spell of coughing fol
lowed by a hemorrhage. Suddenly she felt
a gradual rising pain on her left side. The
tingling pain rose higher and higher, until
all at ouce she felt a hard substance emerge
from her throat and fill her mouth. Spit
ting it out upon tlm floor, like a revelation
it struck her that this was the bone she had
swallowed three years ago. A closer exam
ination revealed the fact that the hard sub
stance was a bone with numerous sharp
edges. Dr. Amick was called, and pro
noum-ed the case simply miraculous, and
gave the reassuring opinion that the effects
of this irritating tenant of the lady’s lung
would soon wear away. The coughing spell
has since almost ceased, and, except for the
debilitating effect, she is almost restored to
health.
THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 11, 1887.
SPIES’ BROTHER.
A Man Who Claims to be Reiated to
the Condemned Anarchist.
From the. Si. Louis Republican.
A man about, five feet nine inches in
height, well built, brown eyes, black mous
tache, attired in a'dark suit of clothes, daik
overcoat and a black slouch hat, walked into
tho Circle saloon, on the northwest corner*
of Twelfth street and Chouteau avenue,
about (5 o'clock yesterday afternoon and
asked fora glass of beer. Albert Booth, the
bar-keeper, brought him the beverage, and
it was drank and another ordered bv the
thirty customer. One beer followed
another until the drinker was more or Uses
under the influence of the beverage and be
came quite talkative, llis language was
in broken English, and he was
evidently more used to speaking
in German than any other language. There
were several men in the barroom with
whom he drank several times and they tried
to draw him into conversation with them,
but their efforts were unsuccessful, as none
of them could talk in tho visitor’s native
language. Finally, a tall, well-dressed
young man entered the saloon, Hnd as he
spoke in German to the bar-kopper, the
Unknown German refused to lot him pay
for the drink which had lieen ordered, but.
called for one for himself and they drank
together. He appeared to take a strange
liking to the new comer, for he would often
express his private opinion on the manner
which the Anarchists were treated in this
country. He mentioned the word Anar
chist in English and in such a wild and
threatening manner that, the bar
keeper became frightened and told
one of the bystanders to run for a police
man and have the man taken to the police
headquarters. The advocate of anarchy ap
peared to know what policeman meant, for
lie told the barkeeper in broken English
that there would be trouble in that saloon
if an officer was summoned, for lie was well
prepared for any emergency. His young
companion was the most controlled one in
the crowd, and ho told the frightened saloon
man to stop hi-, noise and attend to his busi
new. \\ hen quiet had been restored, the
strange man took his so-called young friend
into a corner, and speaking German, he told
the following strange story:
“I suppose you nr# acquainted with the
facts concerning the Hayuiarket riot in Chi
cago, and of the capture and conviction of
the Anarchists. Now these men never had
a fair and square trial to begin with. Even
if they did it is no reason why they should
bo banged like a puck of cowardly curs, in
stead of receiving the treatment of gentle
men, as they all are—and some of them are
soldiers. It was a made-up plot to have
these men tried for a crime they never com
mitted, and once indicted there wus but a
very little chance for their lives. When
these men were convicted I was thousands
of miles from where 1 urn standing now-,
but I received the sad intelligence by
cablegram an hour after the men were
sentenced to death, I was personally
interested in the trial all the time, and
I had men watching everything and everv
body connected w ith the prosecution of tbe
Anarchists, in hopes that I would find some
wav by which the men could be set at lib
erty. Much to my dissatisfaction no chance
presented itself, for the men til my employ
cabled everything to me. Was 1 discour
aged when I received no cheerful news? Oh,
no: I only waited patiently night after
night, entertaining the, thought that I would
soon get news which would give me cour
age. lam tho brotherof August Spies, and
I live in Bolatte, Byron. Bavaria. That is
the reason I have always taken so much in
terest in the welfare of the Anarchists.
Spies is not the doomed man's right name,
but that Is the name he told me he was
going to go by in this country, and I
nave received positive information that be
is my brother. In Bolatte. myself and my
father are engaged in the brewery business;
in fact we have one of the largest breweries
in that section of the country, and our busi
ness is very extensive through every part of
Europe. August. (I w ili call him* by that
name) went to college some distance’ from
our home, w hen he was quite a young man.
When be entered it wns his intention to
study for the priesthood. He remained at
school for some years, but w hen he returned
home on a vacation ho toid us that he had
chang'd his mind and would not study for
the priesthood. When he formed this
resolution we could not man
age him at nil, and he became
very wild. He then embarked in tbe
business, which lie followed up to the time
of his.arrest. When the information
received in Bolatte it created the greatest
consternation among the Anarchists, and a
meeting was instantly called. The hall
where the meeting was held was crowded
with people eager to assist their brethren in
their distress. We adopted resolutions
promising to send assistance in the shape of
money, or a large body of men. The ques
tion whether we would come over to this
country in a large body or not was a sub
ject of debate for several months.
It. was finally decided that we
would gather together the best,
and most influential Anarchists iu that pait
of the country, mid charter steamers and
come to this country. We chartered the
steamer Friesia amt two other large
steamers, and left Bavaria almt one month
ago. Among the number on board the
steamers, which were crowded, there were
throe brothers of Herr Mot, of New York.
Ido not care to say how we landed, but I
will state that the men landed at such places
and in such numbers that, we escaped the
surveillance of tho police.”
“Where are the men now?" asked the
young man, who had listened attentively.
“They are scattered throughout the East,
but please do not interrupt mo. 1 came to
this city last, Friday, mid was met at the
depot by - several Vimrchists who had not the
slightest idea t hat, I was coming here. I
was put in a carriage and driven to the resi
dence of one of the pi eminent members of
the labor union, and stopped there until this
evening, when I slipped quietly away.
Myself and the host had an understanding,
and lie has agreed to have a thousand
Anarchists and sympathizers in Chicago
next Friday morning. But 1 cannot say any
more, young man, for 1 must hurry and
catch my train," he said, and moved toward
the door. “But I don’t know where the
depot is; will yotijilirect me toil.'" The
young man walked with him toward the
depot, and on the way he resumed the story.
“We have it all arranged, so that at day
lignl next Friday morning, the active An
archists will meet in the Gruener-Baurn
hall, 538 Sixteenth si reel, and try and come
to some understanding whether we will
liberate the doomed men by strategy or
bloodshed. See here.' - said the speaker, as
he drew from a pocket in his coatsleeve a
small bottle of arsenic, "if all our effort*
fail we can pass one of these into each of the
doomed men as easy as taking a cigar. We
have men on the iuside of the jail who dare
not fail us.”
During their walk they visited several
saloons, and the Anarchist w as pretty much
intoxicated. Finally the young man suc
ceeded in putting him on the Chicago and
Alton train, and stayed with him until it
puiled out at 7 :56 o’clock.
