through lack of teams to haul the wag

Boy Drowned
in Rapids of
Niagara River
August Sporer, Caught in Sweep of
Current, Makes Strong Fight
for Life.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y., Aug.-lSElght-een-year-old
August Sporer of this Jiity
drowned today In the whirlpool rapld.
With three companion, Sporer we'nt for
a swim In the river at the former Maid
Of the Mist lamllng. He struck out at once
for the middle of the stream and then
turned toward the bridges. . His compan
ions called to him to turn back, for tTie
current Is very swift at that point, but, he
kept on down Btream and was caught In
the Kieat sweep, the first break from the
smoother" waters to the rapids.
The boye-truSBled for a time against the
current, but to no avail. Then, realising
that he was beyond human help and wa
to be carried through the rapid which' took
thft life. or Captain Webb, and which re
Hlsted every human effort at passage, he
deliberately turned down stream and began
a (trim flRht for life.
Not In nil the history of the river has
such a brave effort been witnessed. Al
though but a frail boy,- he went Into he
rapids swimming strongly and held hi own
until he struck" the giant wave, which curl
up opplelt the old Battery elevator. ThA
ho went under and for a second was lost
lo sight of the score of persons who stood
mi the lower arch bridge.
Agalii and again he disappeared, only to
reappear each, time f'shtlng desperately
igralnut the terrible current. Then, when
within .WO yards -of the whirlpool, his
sti'enejtta gave out and he sank and -was
'ust to view. "
Kven then he had swam perhapn' 100
ards further than did the great English
swimmer, Captam Webb.
The body can now be seen In the whirl
pool, where river men are awaiting for it
i be brought In toward shore far enough
o be recovered.

"The time may, come, however far In
the future It may he or how unprepared
we may be for It now, when the state
will come to dec with . a criminal much
as we now do. with the Insane.
"But this treatment of the criminal will
be as unlike the extreme methods In

NO STRINGS ON ME.
If I nm elected county com
missioner no special interests
will have strings on me. My solo
aim will be to see that the coun
ty's business is run open and
above board and on a business
basis, and that everyone having
business with the county gets
fair and equal treatment. I will
not favor specially any interest,
or taxpayer, or contractor at the
expense of any other or of the
county. I will give the merchant
the same consideration as the
real estate owner, and the home
owner and farmer Just as cood
treatment au the big corporation.
I respectfully solicit your vote.
