Niagara Falls, Ont., despatch: Many es in the history of Niagara Falls illuminated by records of heroic res - s of men and women from the cater - and rapids, but at midnight perhaps most remarkable of Niagara dramas s enacted. The heroes of the most .filling and heroic rescue are Officer rry Batts of the police force and Thos. roy, of the paid fire department of gara Falls, New York. The rescued n was Amos Schweitzer, of Sutton, . Schweitzer is said to have escaped m a Toronto hospital. He is mentally alanced. Just before 1 o'clock this .ning a policeman of the New York ate reservation saw him standing at brink of the river about seventy-five t above the American Falls, gazing o the water. He told him to keep back m the river, whereupon Schweitzer ded out into the stream. The offi- called a city policeman named Blake another man, and the two obtained ng pole and pushed it out to Schweit- telling him to catch hold and be led ashore. Schweitzer took hold of and pulled so hard that the pol]ee- n went into the river. The officer ced his feet in the stream and pull - again, whereupon Schweitzer let go. ke then waded towards him, then weitzer went out to deeper water, aped, and was snatched towards the k of the cataract by the swift though Dow current. Twenty feet lower down got a ne'3 foothold on a rock. More arrived and ropes were procured. was thrown to Schweitzer,, and when caught it the men onshore began to 1. Schweitzer let go. Pleaded With the Man, .he would -be -rescuers begged, plead - and threatened Seweitzer to induce to come ashore, but he remained re he was. A lad named Rickert a rope around his waist and went towards him. When he was within feet. of him ,Schweitzer waded far - r out and a little down the stream. stop his progress the policeman fired e shots with his revolver into the ter in front of Schweitzer, and the. ier threw stones, but the maniac paid attention, and floundered on till e s swept off his feet. This time it med nothing could save him, and the n turned away that they Haight not se- him plunged over the awful brink into eternity. Like a chip be floated . towards the curve of the water as it goes over the cliff, but with the luck whieh guards those who cannot guard themselves he struck a rock which pro- jects from the bottom about fifteen feet above the brink of the fall. There he got a new footing, and far a minute hr seemed frightened. Again the ropes were thrown, and again he refused to be pull- s. ashore. He was only twenty feet nut, bet no one dare venture towards him. 1Ir oecnpied the only footing within many feet of the brink. An effort was -rade to lassoo him, but he threw off the rope with a gesture of impatience. Summoned Fire Department. Atthis juncture the police summoned more men and a section of the fire de- rartment. It was 2 o'clock when the hook and ladder truck arrived, and Schweitzer had been standing at the very threshold of death for forty-six minutes. The spectators feared that the ehillin; water would weaken him and that he would go over the falls before nnother effort could be made to save him. The firemen on their arrival rushed a ladder out from a slight ele- vation on the bank, and it reaebed to Schweitzer. He took hold of it, but } would not be pulled in. A Desperate 'Undertaking. Then Policeman Batts and Fireman Conroy started out on the most desper- ate undertaking in the history of Nia- gara Pans. Each had a line round his waist, but a slip meant a plunge over the falls, and no line could save them then. Batts went out on the swaying, bending ladder. and Conroy waded beside him, on the upstream side. Men im- plored them to come back, and not risk their lives for a maniac, but an they went. T1ic ladder dipped in the rushing water and Conroy had to stop lest he be swept away. On went Batts. After minutes of steady crawling inch by inch he reached the end of the ladder, wound his legs around it, lunged forward and seized Schweitzer in his arms before he could move away, Fought Like Madman. Schweitzer fought like the madman he is, but the powerful policeman held him in a grip of steel, despite the blows showered on his face and head. The ladder bobbed up and down and creaked as if about to break, while the men ashore pulled with might and main to drag it and the two lives dependent on its support to safety. When the strug- gling pair had been drawn in a few feet Conroy was able to take a hand in the fight, and Sehweitzer was held fast till all thee were pulled within a few feet of the bank, when half a dozen men dashed into the stream at great risk and got all three ashore.

It lives under water, yet breathes air. It lays eggs, yet it suckles its young. Scientists call it the duck-billed platypus. It was in the wonderful country which claims this strange paradox, that bileans for biliousnosi were first produced. Up • to the discovery of bileans, practically 'all liver and stomach disorders contained mercury, bismuth and other mineral 'poisons, These harmful ingredients, if taken for long, have such serious ef'eats as Ioosening the teeth, causing the hair to fall out or become prematurely grey, etc. Bileans, on the contrary, are purely :vegetable. They contain no trace of any :mineral poison, and are thus not only 3 tinore powerful as a cure, but are more safe in their use. They euro stomach • and liver disorders without introducing other evils. So powerful are they in operation that they eradicate the causes of the ailments obey are compounded to combat, and yet they aro so mild thet they are suitable to the most delicate constitution. Not only are bileans superior by virtue of their vegetable nature, but being the product of modern scientific research, bileans are thoroughly up-to-date. They do not merely purge, giving temporary relief only, and leaving the patient Weakened like the out-of-date so-called remedies. of forty or fifty years ago, which, as already stated, contain aloes, mercury, and other harmful drugs. Bileans, -without the slightest discomfort, prompt the liver and digestive organs to act in nature's normal way, leaving those,organs strengthened and stimulated to continue the performance of their duties without further assistance. They produce a gentle action of the bowels, curing or preventing, constipation, cleans- ing the stomach and ridding the system of all impurities. Reports from rill parts of Canada show how effective are bileans when applied to all symptoms arising •out of liver and stomach disorders. Mr, A. Monoban, of Berlin, says :-" I have taken biloaus and found they did mo a great deal of good. I suffered from piles and constipation, and bileans paoved so highly beneficial that I shall be pleased to recommend them to any sufferer or answer any question about them." Mr. Stanley Richardson, of Main St., Galt, says :-"Having used bileans both here and in England I can speak with perfect confidence of them as a splendid remedy for all stomach troubles, etc. I shall be pleased to recommend theme at all times." Miss Marie Brewer, a certificated nurse, writing from Spennymoor, says: -"I have fora long time now recommended bileans, having proved them most valuable. I am a trained certificated nurse, andhave suf- fered a great deal with headache and'bii- iousness. I could net get relief from doctors' medicine and was advised to try bileans. I did so, and with most benefi- cial result. I always keep bileans in the house, and am continually recommending then in cases of stomach disorders, head- aches, indigestion, constipation and var- ious other complaints." In all quarters where they have been tried bileans are spoken of in similar high terms. They area certain cure for head- ache, constipation, piles, liver trouble, iudigestion and all digestive disorders, female ailments, skin eruptions, bilious- ness, sick headache, bad taste in the mouth, foul breath, dizziness, fainting, buzzing noises in the head, feelings of uncomfortable fulness even after a light meal, wind pains, anemia, debility, etc. They improve the general circulation, and aro a boon to pale -faced girls and weak women. For all purposes to which a household remedy is put bileans will be found of excellent service. Bileans are obtainable from all drug- gists and stores, at fifty edits per box, or direct from the Eileen Co., Colborne St., Toronto, upon receipt of price.

Schweitzer was taken to police head- quarters, given dry clothes, and locked np. Asked why he went into the river, he said, "A piece of foolishness, I guess "' He said he had friends in Toronto, had been in a hospital there, but came to the Falls from St. Catharines on Sunday. He is a shoemaker, and had his tools in his pocket. Telegrams to the Toronto police established his identity, and friends are corning for him to -night. Toronto, ,lune 5. -Schweitzer was- b"rought to the General Hospital from Sutton, Ont .,on May 10. On May 31 he suddenly disappeared. He was in part- nership with his brother in Sutton, and' the firm failed some time ago. It is supposed troubles preyed on his mind. •' NEWS IN BRIEF -u CANADIAN.
