           SAD ACCIDENT. - On Friday last, 7th instant, as the schooner
         Eleanor was entering the mouth of Sturgeon Bay, the second mate,
         DANIEL GLEASON, was struck by the boom of one of the sails,
         instantly knocking him overboard. The vessel was brought to an
         anchor as soon as the wind, which was blowing a gale, would
         permit; but all search for the unfortunate man proved unavail-
         ing. Mr. GLEASON was about 22 years of age, and resided in
         Chicago, where he was President of the Sailors' Union. He is
         very highly spoken of by his comrades, and his sudden death
         is a sad bereavement to his many friends.
