On Sunday last l had occasion to
go down to Coney Island via the
moonlight excursion on the steamer
Minerva, and while there l noticed
Ryan and Farrell, two local detec-
tives, walking around on the boat
keeping order and pushing some OF
the boys down the hole. l think 1t
would be more advisable if those
two men were looking up some of

curing in this city every night in
stead of taking moonlight excur-
sions while on duty. G. H. 5.
The detectives were on duty and
