Eddie Kruger and Harry Moloskl, both
10 years of aire anil living directly noutli
of Courtland beach md w-t uf the street
car tracks, were drvwned jcclcrdiy morn
ine: while skating nn thin lie on Cut Ult
Jake, la front of Courtland beach. The
bodies were recovered by Manager J. II.
Orlfflth of the beach. his bmther and
Clarence Carmen, who pushed a boat out
over the thin Ice to the scrne of the ac
cident The boys went J..wn In twelve
feet of water and about 130 yardi trom
shore.
Mrs. Moloskl. mother of one of the boys,
was at the water's edge a few minutes
before the body of her son was brought In.
Bhe walked up and down the bank wringing
her hands and crying plteously. Scarcely
. had the boat touched ahore when ahe
grabbed the wet ' form of her boy In her
arms regardless of the Icey cold witor.
"That was the saddest hour I ever
spent," aald Manager Orlfflth after the
bodies were recovered.
la Habit af Kkatlag There.
The Kruger boy waa la the habit of going
to the lake through the beach entrance
very day for water. Yesterday he
went, as usual, taking his skates and
stopping on the way for the Moloskl -boy,
who was drowned, and the .other, a boy
of , who gave the alarm to which Mr.
Orltffih responded. Mrs. Moloskl aays ahe
warned the boys about the Ice before tltey
left her house, and It seems they dis
obeyed her advice In the matter. The
younger Moloskl boy took his sled with
him and was, out about 100 yards on the
Icq at the time of the accident.
"Mister, hurry up; my brother and an
other boy has drowned," was the cry of
the little Moloskl boy as he dame running
Into the beach yard and found Mr.
Urirnth. A boat was hurried out. as the
Ice was unsafe to walk near the place
of ths drowning. . The first body was re
covered In Just wenty-flve minutes and
waa yet warm.
The first body recovered was that of
Kruger, which was out twenty-five
minutes after the drowning. The Kruger
boy'a mother Is dend but his Bitter was
there. Ills father works at the I'nlon I'a-
clno shops arid waa not on the scene until
nearly an hour or so afterward. "
Effort to Revive Boys.
Mrs. Griffith and several others tried to
resusclcate the Kruger boy, as his body
waa yet warm, but all efforts In this direc
tion were futile. The Moloekf boy's body
was recovered In forty minutes.
The two boys who wer drowned and
the younger Moloskl boy were the only
boys skating on the Ice at the time. The
beach watchman had been Instructed to
keep a vigilant watch on early skatera,
but ha says fn this Instance the boya
eluded hla watchfulness.
The Ice on which the boya were skating
was from one and a half to 2 Inches
In thickness, but where they went In it
graduated down to the thickness of paper
making It impossible for reaculng party to
get to them in any other means than
boat. The younger Moloskl boy said, after
he had recovered himself, that the boys
swam around for a few minutes before
going down. Dr. Bishop waa summoned,
. but the Uvea .of the boys were extinct be
fore the doctor arrived.
, Fred Moras, foreman of the Swift Ice
plant, across the lake, and men working
tinder him witnessed the tragedy from
their distant location, but were unable to
reach the scene in time to render aid.
Mr. Moran was the first to telephone the
news to Omaha.

CUR LETTER BOX
Mr. Stevenson Will Resists.
BELLEVUE. Neb., Dec. t.-To the Editor
of The pee: I will not be put In a false
position. When I stated yesterday so em
phatically before the trustees of Bellevue
college that I would not continue as vice
president. It is very exasperating to find In
your paper this morning that I would.
Every man present knew that I gave notice
of my resignation to resign In due time.
To report otherwise was untrue.
My friends here and In the east may
think It strange that I sever my connection
with a college In which" I have be-n so
much Interested, and consequently a word
of explanation Is necessary. When Ir.
Kerr resigned and went away, by virtue
of my office It fell to me to take up the
work. Had I yielded to my Inclination I
would have run away and forsnken It, but
I realised that next to Dr. Kerr I had made
more friends for the college than any one
else and was In a position to be helpful to
It. so at the request of the executive com
mittee I assumed the work when very
much prejudice existed against me among
the students, because of false reports. 1
formed the plan of raising a fund of $1,000.
with which to conduct the finances of the
college upon a cash basis and worked at
It constantly during the vacation, only be
ing with my family one Sabbath during the
summer. It waa agreed that the matter of
getting a president should be held In "abey
ance" and while no time was set for the
limitation It was understood to be a year.
This vonld seem to have been confirmed
by the fact that I was given use of the
president's house for one year. The object
of the delay In getting a president was to
give opportunity to get the college out of
Its financial depression. One of the trus
tees said to me privately one day, "Steven
son, would you like to become president of
Bellevue college?" I replied, "I do not
know. If I can so conduct the affairs of
the college ns to create a demand for my
self, all right." I had no deBlre to rail
road myself Into the position, but took the
attitude of making myself worthy of it.
The college opened Its new year on Sep
tember 20 and Imagine my surprise when
on the ?.'d of the same month I found that
steps were being taken to get a new presi
dent. I said, "You cannot get a president
too soon for me" and afterward explained
that I made the remark In the light ot my
discovery that they had tfiken steps to get
a president. From that day I was placed
at great disadvantage in doing my work
and I remarked that I had had enough of
raising money for some one else to expend.
From that day the executive committee
had no reason to think that I would con
tinue with the college after a new presi
dent was secured. They seem determined
that I shall continue to do a kind of work
that none of them are willing to do and
that I ehall be placed In a position which
makes It doubly difficult for me to do It.
I feel that I have pulled chestnuts out of
the fire long enough. It Is. hard enough to
do that, but to be placed In a humiliating
situation while doing it Is more than I can
stand. We have, thus far paid bills j
promptly and have paid several thousand 1
dollars on the old debt. I had secured I
more than half of the 16.000 fund In '
pledges and collected more than $1,100 of
It, far more than was due. Had they kept,
the agreement of delaying the matter of
getting a president and had I continued to
meet with the same degree of success as In
the past, there is every reason to believe
that we could have closed this college year
without deficit and at the same time have
very materially decreased the old debt. But
as a "money-getter" has been secured for
the presidency, the college can sustain no
loss by my retiring to more congenial work.
I recognise the fact that It Is the province
of the trustees to elect to the presidency
whom they please, but It Is not their
province to force me Into a position which
I do not desire to occupy. If they think
It wise to force upon the college one who
has not commended himself to me, to the
other Instructors nor to the students that
la their right, but they cannot determine
my continuing under such circumstances,
although they offer me a salary equal to
that offered tho president. The executive
committee urge that they have made this
change as a kindness to me, to set me rree
to follow up the foundations I laid tor se
curing money both here and In the east.
But to take away my opportunity of com
pleting my place for the financial relief of
the college, by so quickly violating the
agreement to hold the matter of getting a
president In "abeyance," was anything but
a kindness.
ROBERT M. STEVENSON.
Note by the Editor: The Information that
Mr Stevenson would continue as vice presi
dent was given out by members of the
board of trustees.
