sistible, and there is no instance on re
cord of any living being going through
it in safety. The rapids leading to the
whirlpool prqper are also of tremendous
foroc, dashing up several feet, and when
onco in (be fatal circular pool bodies of
drowned persons -have been known to re
main there for weeks revolving all the
time with great rapidity. Notwithstand*
■ng the almost certainly fatal nature of
the attempt,JCapUirn Webb resolved to
make it, and visited Niagara some weeks
| ago to look at the sitnatien. No one,
however, had any faith that he would
carry out his promtse. He did not ad
vertise it extensively and apparently
cared nothing to make a gtaud exhibition.
Ho arrived in Buffalo from New Fork
with hi* manager on the 24th and re
mained till next morning, when he took
tho lost train for the Falls, d termined
to carry out bis plan, and went to the
Cliff on House, on th« Canada side. His
manager tried to persuade him nut to
attempt the foarful undertaking, but
Webb had made up his mind aud said
he would take the entire responsibility.
