DROWNED AT HIGGINS' FERRY, jj Two Negroes Had Gone Out In Boat Tn T.nnlr o - .. S-ihida. Aug. 27.?'This afternoon i Dock A buoy and Sam Holland, two I? ne?roes. were drowned in Saluda I' river a I lligjiins' ferry.

The b'tal became entangled in some telephono wires and was capsized. The Sheppard negro, after a hard struggle finally caught in a tree and was lat' or rescued. Great Damage in Richland. Columbia State, Sunday. The flood conditions in Columbia yesterday had been materially improved. The mighty Congaree was ^ subsiding, was well within its banks and was but a few feet over its customary lines. But what a slimy trail it had left! The beautiful machinery ni the power houses were coated with from f \vn fn <iv innlinu Hm mnot I , sive matter, (lie sedimentation of a dozen feet of water. The naked bed I of the Columbia eanal was like the oozy trail of some fetid monster. The H flower end of the eanal was filled B with alluvial mud to a depth of 1(1 I feel, covering many aeres. a Just bael< of the penitentiary was a great fissure in the eannl bank where the furious Conga ree, driven to the sea. had turned lo bite into the I vitals of the earth whieh had defied I for hours its monstrous approaches, I Through this fissure poured a stream I eight feet in depth and as wide as 1 ?Assembly street. J It is now the work of the management to replace this 150 feet, and it will require days and nights of effort to do this. As the wafer recedes there enmr statements of loss, of ruin and of suffering, ft will be difficult to assort 'lie real from (lie fictitious and it has been suggested that city council mi'jl'1 make some investigation into ;illecred eases of destitution. I The loss to farm lands alone in k .i nhtiul county will In1 not less than v.'">0.000, including destruction of live si.it k. From many farms all of the . i ? ? -oi! wj; .is mtnral and artificial fertilization luul^been swept away. This loss may indeed approximate half a million dollars.
