To fhe Editor Qfthe Dispatch:

that your reporter seems to have fallen
into in reference 10 the endorsement OF
Mr.. Jones by the ministers. who, be asserts,
al arose from their seats Perhaps.
through not being able tOsee beyond those
who arose from the front seats, he
failed 10 become cOgnizant of those in the
rear who did not riso. But | wish 10 state
that there were about half a dozen minis
ters in my immediate neighborhood VINO
did not stand up 10 Mr. J0nes's appeal. |
noticed though that some who did not
stand up to endorse him contributed
handsomely when the basket came around.
Although Nh. Jones professed not 10 ask
nor to care for the endorsement OF any one.
he seemed. | thought, particularly urgent
10 secure it. do not regard 1t a. quite
fair on his part TO urge upon us such an
unqualified endorsement OF all his words
and WAYS NJ he did. The presence of the
ministers on the platform day after day,
and the hearty way in which thcy seconded
all his efforts by their help and their
PRAYERS. should have boen enough without
calling upon them as be did to back up
everything he said.
His fiery and tremendous denunclations
of wrong doing. ms fearless throttling ot

mands tho sympathy and prayers OF all

cannot Justify nor endorse. Yours, &o..

TWO BOYS DROWNED.
A PLAYFUL ScUFFLE ON THE BRINK
OF THE DOCK ENDS LAMENTABLY.
Particulars of the Accident-The Bodies
Recovered by Joe Edwards,
the Diver.

Two bright youths in the full enjoyment
ot health and happiness, in the midst OF
playful scuf1le, yesterday evening about
o'clock fell into the dock and were drowned.
The scene Of the occurrence was at the
foot OF Twenty-frst street. whore the bank
doscends precipitately TO the water
Here David Noll and Ernest Duke were
in the habit of meeting sometimes to play
and occasionally to fish. They had been
there some little time yesterday in friendly
chat when they got TO wrestling or scuiiilng,
and one Of the boys fell over the brink
into the dock and pulled his companion IN
after him.
THE ALARM.
George Noll. a brother Of David. was
little distance of, and seeing the accident
rushed to the spot. 1t was impossible,
however, for him to get down TO the water
to tho help of the boys. and by the time
his cries had brought help it was OF no
avail.
Both of the unhappy youths were drown
ed almost instantly. though had they been
able 70 keep their heads above tho water
with their outstretched hands they might
have seized the posts which stand ont OF
the stream and sustain the dock emOank-
mcnt at this point.
PERSONAL.
David Noll WAS fourteen years and nine
months old, and was q son OF the tailor OF
that name.
From all accounts he was smart and
helpful boy. He was fairly well grown for
his age.
Ernest Duke was a son Of Mr.. Richard
Duke. and was ten years of age. His
mother is dead; Nolls mother is living.
THE DIVER SUCCEEDS.
The distressing occurrence drew 10 the
spot a large number Of people, all of whom
expressed their sympathy with the stricken
relatives. and prOherred their best assist
ance towards the recovery of the bodies.
1t was. however, through Joe Edwards,
the famous diver and swimmer. that the
search was prosecuted to successful con-
clusion After numerous dives Dukes
body was recovered after it had been IN the
water twenty minutes. Considerably later
Noll's was found. Both had been swept
out into the stream good distance.
vIzwEr.
The poor little fellows were brought
ashore and laid upon the bank, whore they
were viewed by Coroner Taylor. Their re-
mains were then delivered to their rela-
tiyes.
Into the unmercful bosom Of the dock
scores OF persons have plunged. Strangers
have gone in in the darkness of the
night: old topers have there ended
their careers. when they know not where
they walked: others have pershed there
under circumstances that rendered it du-
bious whether their lives wero lost by acct
dent or design-but none OF the dock vic
tins were worthierof sympathy than these
little fellows. who in the enjoyment of
their childish pranks realized how dread
fully true 1t is that III the midst of life we
are in death.
The parents of both boys live in neigh
borhoods near where the drowning took
place.

FIournov's Case Again Continued.

The oft-continued case of J. G. Flournoy,
charged with grand larceny. was called 10
the Police Court yesterday morning.
Mr.. Samuel VI. Page. representing the
prosecution, stated 10 Justice Crutchficli /
that the counsel for Flournoy seems TO be
determined not TO allow the four appeal
cases in the Hastings Court to.come to .
trial until the cases in the Police COur;
have been disposed of. and he was equally
determined that the cases in the Police
Court should not be tried until the case
before the Hastings Court have been tried.
Justice Crutchfcld said that he had lons
ago made up his mind MOTTO hear the cases
against Flournoy now pending IN his court
until the appeal cases had been decided in
Judge Wits court; that the counsel for
the accused had just as well 90 into a trial
the next time the cases were called in the
Hastings Court. for he would gain nothing
by Il continuance.
The case was continued for ten days.
