Part of Sullivan's Island Gone.
Charleston, August 26.-A section of
the front beach on Sullivan's Island, ex
tending over au area of 100 feet by 160
feet, was washed away at 4 o'clock this
morning, leaving on excavation of 30 to
50 feet deep. The landslide occurred in
trout of the Pringle and Moises houses,
the cave in reaching within 25 feet of
the residences. With tho extension of a
few more feet thc residences might have
been wrecked and several lives lost and
injured during the hours of night, when
the inmates of the houses were all asleep.
The cave-in is supposed to have been
caused by the currents washing away the
beach. The point of the island where
tho oave-in occurred is next to the jet
ties, the narrowest part of the channel.
The constant swirling of the water be
tween tho stone grillages, which are on
each side of the placo that was washed
out, probably undermined the beach and
caused the landslide. A small boat,
which was high and dry on the beach,
bas been lout. swept into tho vortex ami
carried probably down the coast. A
similar washout, but not as largo, oc
curred a few years ago. Tho cave-in has
caused much excitement among tho
nervous people on the island, who aro
fearing other landslides.
Qeorge J. Ricard, brother of Admiral
Mon gomory Sicard, died at Buffalo, N. j

The Death Pc na Ky.
A little thing sometimos results in
death. Thus a mere soratob, insignifi
cant cuts or puny boils have paid the
death penalty. It is wise to have Bunk

beat salve on earth and will prevent
fatality when burns, sores, ulcers and
piles threaten. Only 25c., at all drug
gists.

The End ol thal New Hope Bear.
New Hope, August 20.-Mossrs. Kdi
tors: Threw stars enid be w<;s sorrv I
was not as sharp na I claim to be. Now
I ltnow that I am not. smart, and 1 don't
olaim to be; but it does look like any
wise man could have ?nid and under
stood that I uovor said that three stars
said I made the bear tracks. I said that
ho intimated that I made thom. I oan't
see how this good and wise man came to
make this mistake unless ho didn't Know
what intimated mennt. Three stat? says
I said there were not any children kept
away from school. I did not say any
such thing. I said I did not kuow of
any. Some people, if they can't be the
bell cow, won't gallop in the gang. Now,
tho one that made the tracks told Three
Stars about it, and he promised faith
fully, more than once, that he would uot
tell it, and later on Three Stars saw
some other parties and asked them if
they didn't, know there was a bear out?
It seems to me that he is straining at a
gnat and swallowing a camel, or making
a mountain out of a mole hill. A mon
who lives lu a glass house should not
throw stones.
Now, If I have done anything wrong I
am exceedingly sorry for it and truat
that my mistakes in the past will prove a
blessing in the future. M. A. Wood.
We will now let the New Hope hear
die and stay dead. Both Mr. Kolley and
Mr. Wood have had equal showiugs and
the matter is settled. The two gentle
men most concerned can now shake
hands across the "bloody chasm" and be
none the worse for the little sparring.
