CHRISTMAS AT BEAUFORT.
A Sad Accident at the Phosphate Works.

A Sad Accident at the Phosphate Works.
Correspondence Of the 1forain0 Neaos.
BEAUFORT, Dec. 23.-We are having
regular Christmas weather here to-day.
1t is cold and the sky is lead colored. If
such thing were possible in Beaufort,
we would have snow, but the respectable
old town never cuts such capers as that.
The oldest Inhabitant would find it hard
to recall a snow storm.
Everything and everybody seems to be
going into the Christmas tree business,
Judging from the demand for trees. The
Episcopal Christmas tree celebration will
be held this year on Christmas eve, at the
Arsenal, as the Sunday school building,
which is evidently, judging from its ap-
pearance, a relic Of the middle ages, has
threatened the Sunday school w tn the
fate of Samson.
Two or three gaietles are in progress
for the young and wOrldly-minded. One
is a private domino party, which would
be great fun only everybody will know
each other, so disguise is useless. The
other is a calico ball, to be given at the
hotel New Years night.
After as much preparation as if it were
going to the North Pole, the dredge from
'EBOnny ScOtland,1 owned by Hume Bros,
has gone TO work in the waters of Battery
Creek, and is bringing up phosphate at
the rate of 100 tons per hour. At this
prOdigiOus rate one would think that
there would soon be an end Of it all, but
your reporter, having misgivings on the
subject, interviewed one of the knowing
ones, and has been assured that there is
no danger Of the supply being exhausted
for many a long day.
One of the phosphate hands at Hume's
had his ankle crushed under heap OF
I, hot Iewr fl,rt t.A
phosphate is thrown out OF the elevator
the hands always will commence to dig it
down from the top, though they have been
warned not to do so. The phosphate fell
over on the man and be had to be dug
out. 1t was found necessary to amputate
the foot.
After the operation was performed, as
soon as the patient recovered from the
anasthetic, the first words he uttered
were: "Where's my foot? Lemme see
my foot" The doctor advised him not to
look at it, but he insisted, and it was
shown to him. He gaZed at it, and then
remarked with philosophical resignation:
''Well, that's the last of faithful friend"
Which one of us could have accepted the
situation like that?
A petition has been signed by those in
terested in the money refunded by the
United States, as the proceeds of the sur
plus tax fund (levied on the property
sold down here during the war;, praying
the Legislature to lessen the amount Of
percentage to be paid the three commits
| sioners who have been instrumental in
| getting the money refunded.
The petitioners claim that they have no
representation of their interests in the
Legislature, which is certainly true, as
| they are certainly not represented by the
| three colored Republicans who nominally
represent this county in the Legislature,
| and the petitioners consider that the CON-
mission is much too large, which, as it
VIII be about half the amount refunded,
does appear to be rather exorbitant.
LOCKER ON.

TWO BIG SUITS DECIDED.
MISS HILL GAINS HER CASE
AGAINST SHARON.

The Verdict a Complete Surprise, ard
an Appeal to be Taken by the Senator
Judge Hughes Asks the southern
Telegraph Litigants to Agree on a
Receiver.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 24.-The ceIe-
brated Sharon divorce suit has been de-
cided in favor of the plaintiff. The suit
as brought by the plaintiff, Miss Sarah
Althea Hill, claiming to be the
wife of ex-senator Sharon, twas
for divorce and division of the
common property. Judge Sullivan's
decision Is very comprehensive, contain-
ing 1000 words. After reviewing the tes-
timony he concludes by declaring that
under the laws of California the plaintiff
is the legal wife of Mr.. Sharon, and as
such, ON the ground of wilful desertion.
is entitled to divorce and division of COM
mon property. The latter is estimated to
be worth $10,000,000. The verdict Is a
great surprise to the public, it having
been generally supposed from the contra
dictOry character Of the testimony that
the plaintiff would be non-suited.
WHAT sHARON's COUNSEL SAYS.
w. II. L. Darres, leading counsel for
Senator Sharon, says of Judge Sullivan's
decision:
1t is an entire surprise to the profession,
both as to the law and the facts. The iudg-
ment, if it stands, will not be a serious peer-
mary injury to MIR. Sharon. / don't think he
has $4,000 worth of property which could be
made subject to the decision. Mr.. Sharon is
greatly annoyed by the present decision, but
has not the slightest idea Of submission. and.
OF course. will appeal, aud we are confident
Of reversing the decision. The suit brought
by Mr.. Sharon IN the United States Circuit
Court to have the marriage contract declared
invalid will be prosecuted.
The plaintiffs scounselwiII make applica-
tion for counsel fees and $4,000 per month
alimony fqssseurteen months, or since the
beginninfs& the case.

SOUTHERN IRON AND COAL.
RRndalps Trip in the Interest of the
Frightened PennsyIVauians.

RRndalps Trip in the Interest of the
Frightened PennsyIvanians.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 24.-The following
is given by the Star as a reason for Ran
dalPs Southern trip: "Anumber of men,
bers of Congress and capitalists are in
vesting large sums of money in the iron
and coal lands in Tennessee and Alabama,
and are preparing to open up the mining
industry of that region. The coal and
iron lie in parallel ridges a few miles
apart, passing through Alabama, Ten
nessee, Kentucky, and into Virginia, and
in Alabama and Tennessee it is said to be
the best in the world. Northern men are
at work at Birmingham, and the English
and TenneSseans are working out the
iron at South Plttsburg and the furnaces
in Tennessee. Representative Mcmillan
and his brother have bought 10000 acres
OF coal and iron lands in that region since
the adjournment last session. For n year
they have been getting out iron below the
lowest price it can be brought here from
Europe, and they are sending pig iron to
Pittsburg and Philadelphia cheaper than
they can work it out here. For several
years past the river and harbOr bill has
made appropriations to remove Obstruc-
tiOns in the Tennessee river. This year
DhC i"ou oPPlVPl ldUiOus POVO3VVOs Will NC
made. When the work is completed
there will be a waterway open
all the year round from the
iron furnaces of the South to
Cincinnati. st. Louis, Louisville, Pitts
burg and Philadelphia, Pa. Southern
members say that when this is open the
Pennsylvania furnaces will have to shut
down, as the Southern furnaces can
undersell any furnace i'll the world, and
the question Of protection does not enter
into the calculations. The fact that the
opening CT the Tennessee meant so much
to the Northern iron workers has been
kept a secret to this time will sufficiently
account for Mr.. RandalPs trip.

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.
Father ChapelIe Making an Effort TO

Father ChapelIe Making an Effort TO
Have 1t Established in Washington.
1t will be remembered, says the Wash
ingtOn Star, that announcement was
made not long ago of the donation of the
large sum Of 100000 by a wealthy young
Catholic lady in New York for the estab-
lishment of a college for the higher educa-
tion OF the Catholic clergy in this coun-
try. At the recent Plenary Council in
Baltimore the offer was accepted, and the.
matter was referred to a committee OF
Bishops, who will meet next month to

the idea has prevailed that the college
would be established in New York, but
the Rev. DR.. Chapelle, pastor of St..
Matthew's church, in this city, is making
efforts to have the college established
here. He has already argued with the COM

as Washington is not only the seat of the
government, but fast getting to be the
centre of science, and atfording unusual
facilities in the way Of libraries, ETC., the
institution should be established here.

A Tidal WaYe Appears Suddenly in
New Haven HarbOr with Disastrous
ResaIts.
AT IL O'Clock last night, says New
Haven, Conn, special of Dec. %, a heavy
wave arising from some mysterious cause
suddenly swept over the schooners Onrust
and Nellie Grant and the barge Bouquet,
which were riding at anchor in the har-
Dor. The Onrust and the Bouquet We're
sunk, while the Nellie was saved only
after some difficulty. 1t was dark and
raining at the time, but there was no
wind and the water just before the strange
occurrence was as calm as a millpOnd
The Onrust, Capt. Reed, was from New
York, with 800 tons of coal; the Bouquet,
from South Amboy, with $50 tons of coal,
and the Nellie, Capt. Dodge, with coal,
from HOboken. There were other
coasting vessels in the harbor, but so far
no other casualties have been reported.
One of the crew of the Onrust heard a
loud roaring sound, and throwing on his
clothes rushed to the deck. just as he
did so wall of water sheer-poIe high
struck the bow of the schooner, breaking
over her and filling her full of water.
From the great weight of her load the
vessel did not respond, and so literally

all hands, and in few seconds the crew
Of four men and the Captains wife were
on deck and into the lOngboat, which,
although partially filled with water, had
been lowered a few feet. The schooner
continued to sink, and just as the boat
pushed clear of her with its passengers
she foundered IN twelve feet of water.
Capt. Reed saved very few of his papers,
and little or no money. He at once came
to this city, where, with his wife and
crew, he still remains, awaiting orders.
The Onrust is an old vessel, worth per-
haps $4,000, and can be raised.
