the third OF the Sister Islands.
They were making frantic endcavors to
reach some rocks. and 1t looked as though
they were about to gain them. When the
train brough. the report to the city great
rush WIS made across tho Goat Island bridge
to get IL glimpse OF the men.
The gates were closed. which caused some

rocks saw the men swept away from the last
chance by the swift current OF the river Tho
bodies were quickly carried over tho falls.
It is known that one Of the young mon was
John Supple OF Niagara Falls. Tho name Of
his companion is not known. They started up
