Annie Edson Taylor: the first person to pass over the Niagara Falls and survive
Tumblr media
A school teacher from Michigan, Ms. Taylor decided to attempt to pass over Niagara Falls in a barrel, accompanied by her cat.
Annie Edson Taylor thought she would attract a crowd as the Pan American Exposition was taking place in Buffalo, New York.
Tumblr media
The barrel containing Annie Taylor and her cat was towed by a small boat on the afternoon of October 24th, 1901.  Once the barrel was in the main stream of the Niagara River, it was cut loose.
At approximately 4:30pm the barrel was edging over the brink, and it then reappeared at the base of the falls less than a minute later. In fifteen minutes, the barrel reappeared near the shore and was dragged to a rock where the lid was removed.
People were surprised to see Annie Edson come out of the container with no injuries, although dazed, apart from a cut on her forehead which she got while coming out of the barrel.
Tumblr media
On 24th October 1901, Edson’s 63rd birthday, she became the first person to pass over Niagara Falls and survive. Afterwards she said: “I would sooner walk up to the mouth of a cannon, knowing it was going to blow me to pieces than make another trip over the Fall.”
Annie died in 1921, and even though it got her the fame, she died broke, as she had feared.
Since then, 15 people have attempted the stunt, resulting in 5 deaths. Today, it is illegal, and the consequence of an attempt is a $25,000 fine.

St. Maria Guadalupe Garcia Zavala
Tumblr media
Feast day: June 24th
Patronage: Nurses, Handmaids of Santa Margherita Maria and the Poor
Mother Maria Guadalupe Garcia Zavala was co-founder of the Congregation of the Handmaids of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and the Poor, and was the first mother superior of the congregation. She was beautified by Pope John Paul II on April 25, 2004, and will be canonized on May 12, 2013.
Maria was born on April 27, 1878 in Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico. Her father, Fortino, ran a religious goods store situated in front of the Basilica of Our Lady of Zapopan. She had a special devotion to the Lady and she made frequent prayers in the basilica.
As a young woman, she made plans to marry, however she ended these plans as she felt called to religious life.
She then pursued religious life and co-founded a new congregation on October 13, 1901, known as the Handmaids of St. Margret Mary Alacoque and the Poor. Maria spent most of her time serving as a nurse and as the Mother Superior General of the congregation.
The Congregation grew rapidly and served ever more people. However, she was also devoted to poverty, saying that only by being poor can one be with the poor. She sometimes begged for money on the street to help meet the needs of the Congregation and the patients they served.
The sisters of the Congregation also served in nearby parishes and teaching catechism.
During the Mexican Revolution, a time of great persecution for the Catholic Church which lasted from 1911 to 1936, Mother Maria hid priests and even the Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Guadalajara in her hospital, saving them from their enemies.
Maria led the Congregation as it grew to 11 foundations in Mexico. Since her death on June 24, 1963, the Congregation has grown to include 22 houses in five different countries, with the most in Mexico.
Zavala began to suffer from a severe illness since 1961 and she died from this on 24 June 1963 in Guadalajara. Her order now operates in nations such as Iceland and Peru. In 2005 there were 147 religious in 24 houses though this declined in 2015 with 112 women in 22 houses.
Maria was declared venerable on Pope John Paul II on July 1, 2000, and beautified on April 25, 2004. She was canonized by Pope Francis on May 12, 2013.

Caraway said the secretary had accepted appoitment as a member of the faculty of the college to teach students “how to speculate and get around the rules of the grain futures act which he administers.” ¶ The resolution asked the Secretary to state whether his information on grain futures markets was obtained as a result of his official connection with the department of agriculture, and what compensation he has received from the college. ¶ The Roundup College school for price broadcasting [sic, should be “forecasting” ?] was held at the Congress Hotel four weeks ago. Secretary Jardine was announced in publicity as the principal speaker. The school is run by J. Ralph Pickell, listed in the telephone book with offices at 1848 West Washington Boulevard and 328 Ashland Boulevard. It is said, however, that the offices have moved to Western Springs, Ill., near Chicago. ¶ Pickell at the time the school was held, said about 500 students would be in attendance. Each student, he said would pay $50 for the course. ex The Illinois Agricultural Association Record (July 1, 1926) : 3 21 ex chapter 23 (the last) in Henri Barbusse (1873-1935 *), Light (Fitzwater Wray, trans.; 1919) : 301 several scans of the same at hathitrust 22 ex Fashions for Men (this passage) and The Swan (in one volume, subtitled Two Plays by Franz Molnar (both comedies in three acts; English texts by Benjamin Glazer); (Liveright, 1922) : 117 Ferenc Molnár (1878-1952), at wikipedia 23 ex Rachel Cusk, Saving Agnes (1993; Picador 1995) : 2
