SWEPT OVER NIAGARA.
FATE OF A FISHERMAN.
Times and Sydney Sun Servjces,. New York, May 13. Niagara Falls claimed another victim this week.
A fisherman named Sayder was rowing on the river, when one of his oars broke. The boat soon got out of control, and rapidly drifted down the river. Finally, when Sayder saw that his fate was inevitable, he stood up and waved his hands as a farewell to those on shore as he was swept to his death over the Horseshoe Falls.
