John Crubaugh, T. J. Med ill, A. C. Dart, C. K. Case and F. P. Welch were out on the river a couple of hours during the afternoon, the exjx'dition being undertaken in honor of Mr. Crubaugh's birthday. On their re turn late in the afternoon the boat was run into the house at the foot of Nineteenth street and the party pro ceeded to disembark. The wind was pretty strong and the boat was pitching about, and when Mr. Dart started to walk down the gang plank he lost his balance and fell off on the river side. Tire water was deep enough to make the accident a serious one and Messrs. Case and Welch immediately jumped to the rescue." Mr. Case secured a hold on Mr. Dart, Mr. Welch caught Mr. Case and the members of the par ty who were qeratiiig on dry land seized Mr. Welch, (lulling all three ashore.
