A PLUNGE TO DE ATH.
SAM PATCH’S FAMOUS JUMP OVER
THE GENESEE FALLS.
Th« Lftjst of »t Sctmafionnl Sfrlm «*f
During Feats Which Might Have
Hcmultcri Differently hnt For n Dot
tle of Brunily.
Nov. 13, 1S20, Sam Patch lost his life
In jumping from a scaffold 23 foot
above the brink of the Genesee fails
into tbe abyss below. lie undertook
to jump in all a distance of 125 feet.
Of course tbe whole population of
Rochester as well as the farmers from
neighboring villages were upon the
scene. The fame of Patch had for
several weeks been a topic of conver
sation among the early settlers.
Patch was born in Rhode Island In
1807. Soon after be removed to Pater
son. N. J., at which place in 1827 he
was seized with the jumping mania.
After giving several daring exhibitions
in New Jersey he decided to try his
luck at Niagara falls two years later.
In October, 1827, he jumped from a
shelving rock between Goat island and
the gurgling waters many feet below.
A few days later he startled the na
tives by jumping from the old Fitz
hugh street bridge at dawn. He swam
tinder the water to a convenient hiding
place, where lie had much amusement
in watching several boats crowded
with people dragging for his body.
They were startled when he called
merrily to them, joking them for their
wasteu enorts in ms uenair.
On another morning he startled a
Rochester lad by jumping from the
brink of the falls to the rapids below.
If Patch had uot reassured the boy, he
would have had half of the population
of Rochester dragging the water for
his dead body.
With such a record it is no wonder
that on the morning of Nov. 13 all the
muddy roads leading to Rochester
were thronged with people desirous of
seeing the wonderful jumper. Even if
farmers were unusually busy in secur
ing the last of their harvests they
found time to take a day or two off in
order to witness the feats of Sam
Patch. Several boats brought hundreds
of visitors in holiday attire from Can
ada. Oswego and Lewiston. Buffalo.
Canandaigua and Batavia were almost
depopulated on account of the exodus
to Rochester. The few taverns in the
city turned guests away, aud many
had to camp out overnight.
Notwithstanding the raw,cold weath
er throngs of settlers lined the banks
below the falls. Although Sam said he
did not feel the cold weather, he was
pleased to fortify himself with a drink
of brandy tendered to him by his
friend. William Cochrane. Several of
the spectators contributed a unique
uniform. Pressed in white trousers
decorated with a black silk handker
chief tied around his body, surmounted
by a light woolen jacket and skullcap,
Sam must have presented a grotesque
appearance.
After taking another drink from the
flask Sam made the following speech
to the thousands of breathless specta
tors: “Napoleon was a great man and
a great general. lie conquered armies,
and he conquered nations. But he
couldn’t jump the Genesee falls. Wel
lington was a great man and a great
soldier. He conquered armies, and he
conquered nations, aud he conquered
Napoleon, but be couldn’t jump the
Genesee falls. That was left for me to
do, and I can do it and will.”
Although Sam Patch could jump the
Genesee falls when he was sober, he
could uot do it when he felt the effects
of the brandy. Owing to this fact he
met his death when he took the jump.
When the thousands of silent and hor
ror stricken spectators saw Sam strike
the water, they did not see him come
to the surface. Ilis descent was so un
like his previous efforts, when he shot
like an arrow from a how, that the
spectators were certain that he met his
doom when he reached the water and
the Jagged, piercing rocks beneath.
The spectators searched in vain for
the jumper. The torches of the search
ers along the river bank and those of
the searchers who dragged the river in
boats lit up the river during the long
night hours. Amid the roar of the
cataract the sorrowing multitude shed
tears for the jolly good fellow who.
like many others, loved his bottle on
occasions.
Notwithstanding the rumors that
Sam Patch had been seen alive in
Rochester nothing was heard of him
until St. Patrick’s day, when his body
was found in a cake of ice near the
mouth of the Genesee. Ilis remains
were buried in the cemetery at Char
lotte. Although It had been the ambi
tion of his life to jump London bridge,
he met his death in the Genesee. The
feats of Sam Patch filled the newspa
pers for weeks, and although such
poets as Mrs. Sigourney wrote poems
dedicated to his memory no monument
has been erected in commemoration of
his feats.
Indeed, the event produced a pro
found impression upon tlie people of
those days. On the following Sunday
the preachers in Rochester and neigh
boring towns could not say enough
against the evils of jumping. Some
even went as far as Joslah Bissell, who
told the pupils of the Third church
Sunday school that because they saw
the fatal leap they were accessories to
his death and were murderers in the
sight of God —Rochester Herald.
Not l*p on Stocks.
“Shakespeare may have thought he
knew It all when he said, ‘There Is a
tide In the affairs of men that, taken
at the flood, leads on to fortune,' but
he didn’t know anything about the
stock market.” growled the shorn lamb,
who bad loaded up at the floodtide of
prices, only to be wiped out at the
deep, low ebb.—New York Commercial
.Advertiser.

FIRST WIG IN HISTORY.
It Wns Worn !>r ttir Onnehtfr of
Sanl. tvlaj; of Israel.
The first wig mentioned in history
was made of a goat's skin and worn by
the daughter of Saul, king of Israel.
Tho first artistic wigs wore made in
the south of Italy for the Gaplniens,
who lived in Apulia and were known
for 1 lie luxuries of tiioli%iilet. These
people were, they say. the first who
painted their fact's. This they did with
the juice of strawberries.
The Persians wore wigs. Xenophon i
relates that little Cyrus, when he visit
J etl Astynges, his grandfather, whose
eyes were framed in blue paint and
who wore an enormous wig, threw
himself on his knees anti cried, “Oh,
mother, what a beautiful grandfather
I have!” Aglais, a maid of honor, was
so struck by the appearance of the old
gentleman that she remained with As
tynges as a slave.
The IMitenicinn women, who were
proud of their hair, having been or
dered by their priests to offer it up on
the altars dedicated to Venus after the
death of Adonis, obeyed, but with mur
muring. Soon after they were consoled
by a Greek merchant, who told them
that lie would give them the means of
hiding their bald pates under luxurious
curls. In his chariot lie had hundreds
of wigs of all colors.
Wigs were in vogue in Rome toward
the end of the republic and.so well
made that, says Ovid, “no man could
know if his wife had any hair at all be
fore she had given him an opportunity
of seizing her by the tresses.”
Teutonic peasants were the provid
ers of blond hair for ricli Roman prin
cesses. who loved tho contrast of its
flaxen hue with their black eyes. They
even had morning wigs, small and
tightly curled, of any color, and they
kept the beautiful fair ones to receive
their admirers at night. Messalina had
150 wigs to disguise herself.—Cincin
nati Commercial Tribune.

yard long lengths of new piques liber
ally sprinkled with those little price
tags (the pius all stuck through the
several thicknesses and bent down),

At one store the one who is at the
head of each stock attends to the pre
paring of the samples of his particular
stock. Thus the pit)ue samples would
be cut by one. samples of swiss by an
other, of organdie by another, and so
on. In the silk department oue man.
who is kept for the purpose, does it all.
And it takes all his time.
For people from a distance who do
their buying by'mail this is of course a
very good method. But the part to
which all sane people take exception
Is the senseless sampling of those who
wander aimlessly about, evidently
gathering samples as a thoughtless
child sometimes pulls twigs in passing
bushes. The worst of it is we have to
pay for this senseless woman's foolish
ness, it being often observable that the
biggest samplers are the smallest buy
ers. One clerk says that he has actual
ly seen thrown upon the sidewalk the
samples given to a woman after show
ing her his whole stock, her purchase
being ostensibly postponed because of
her fear that the goods will not match
something or other.
The time is past when these scraps
went to feed the insatiate crazy quilt
fiends.—Philadelphia Record.
