Two Men Drowned in Hampton
Roads.

An accident occurred in Hampton Roads at
1 O'Clock yesterday by which two young men
from Hampton, named d. b. Ready and George
Dexter, were drowned. They had gone out for
a sail, and were on Sewalls Point, when a
squall was seen approaching. The tug Spring
Garden, from Norfolk, passing for Old Point,
was hailed and took them in tow, the captain
advising them to come on board, which they
declined. Shortly afterward squall of rain
and hail struck with great force, and the tug
had to be hauled head TO the wind for safety.
When II ceased 1t was discovered that the sail
boat had parted her lines, capslzed and was
half mile to leeward on the flats. The boat
was afterward picked up by the steam launch
of the Tennessee, but no trace OF the unfortu-
nate occupants could be found.

EXAMPLE FOR JOE BLACKBURN.
A Challenge which Resulted in Ac.
ton and Not Mere Talk.

The recent colored excursion to Marshall
Hall has not been entirely FREQ from sanguin-
ary consequences, and has afforded little
work for the police. An attractive Miss May
Flanagan, colored belle of the deepest dye,
was one Of the excursionists, and had numer-
Gus admirers, among whom were William
Skidmore, alias "skinney BILL" and George
Newman, alias "Buck." Miss Flanagan
danced with both and succeeded In making
each so jealous of the other, that before the
steamer had touched the Seventh street wharf
the details for duel were arranged Rich
ards brick yard was the place, yesterday at
sunrise the thine, and fists, feet, nnger-nails
and teeth the weapons
Spectators to the number Of two or three
hundred were invited, seconds selected, and
all was ready. AT the appointed hour the fight
took place before an immense crowd and lasted
nearly an hour. The participants in the com
bat were arrested TO day. One was terribly
bitten in several places and badly scratched
The other bore evidence of having been
ploughed up by q bootheel from his nose ur
to the top of HIS head, and was badly wounded
otherwise. He had also been tramped on while
on the ground and seriously injured. The
men will be tried tomorrow.

Serious Accident to a Railroad Man.

Mr.. E. j. Spinkel, OF Rochelle, Va, and who
is well-known in this city, is an employe of
the Railway Mail Service, which fact, coupled
with the dangerous condition Of the curve
entrance TO the bridge that crosses the Kappa
hammock River, came near causing his death
Taturday night. 1t appears the bridge en-
trance at that point is very narrow, SO narrow
in fact that 1t barely admits the passage OF
a mail car, which Is wider than passenger
and freight cars. His train left here at the
usual time Saturday night and when 1t
reached that point, Mr.. Spinkel was leaning
with his elbow on the window-sill just as the
corner of the car camo In contact with side of
he bridge, the sudden jar throwing his head
violently through the window, and, bringing
II into sudden contact with the bridge wall,
resulted in nearly scalping him-his head
being deeply gashed nearly all around. Ho
was taken of the cars at Rochelle, and medical
assistance summoned. The railroad authori-
ties should widen the bridge entrance at that
point, as mail cars, especially when they are
loaded, invariably strike against the bridge
wall, and 1t may ultimately result In a serious
accident
