"Ntnety.six and Her Traditions.

This is the title OF pamphlet which was
written by James Henry Rice, son Of Hon.
James H. Rice, Of Ninety-six.
It Is valuable contribution to the history
Of the old Star Fort and old Cambridge.
Mr.. Rice is a talented scholar, and writer
of force and beauty, and in this last produc-
tion he places Abbeville county under debt

It is to be hoped that some able and patrio-
tic citizen may write for all OF Abbeyllle a
book half as good as that which has just been
published about "Old Cambridge"

ASTOR'S YACHT
CoIIides With Pennsylvania
Railroad Boat.

NEW YORK. Oct. ll.-Fresh from the
dry dock. after her collision with the
West ShOre wharf near Poughkeepsie,
John Jacob Astor's steam yacht Nour-
mahal ran into a crowded ferry boat of
the Pennsylvania railroad. on her way
to the Cortland ferry landing.th morn
ing. and cut big hole III the bow of the
ferry boat.
Mr.. Astor and large party OF guests,
prominent society people Of this city
and elsewhere, lined the decks of the
yacht and crowded her cabins. Women
screamed and we're swept off their feet
by the wild rush of frightened passen-
gers. The boats were i'll mid-stream.
1t is said by eye-Witnesses of the acci-
dent that the signals by the ferry boat
Washington were not answered by the
Nourmahal. which was running at fuIl
Syeed, and kept on her course without
swerving. There was no time to put on
life preserVeTs before the crash. Be-
fore half the passengers had fed
from the bow the sharp nose of the
Nourmahal came crashing into the port
rail of the Washington, fifty or sixty
feet from the stem. 1t cut into the ferry
boat fully six or seven feet. and there
it stuck. Meantime the engines of the
ferry BOAT had been stopped, and those
on the Nourmahal were reversed at full
speed. Slowly the shapely bow of the
yacht crept out of the rent in the ferry
boat. The Nourmahal continued to back
out of danger, while. after drifting with
the tide an instant, the engines OF the
ferry boat were sent ahead at full speed.
and the boats we're safe, On board the
Nourmahal the excitement seemed to
be uncomfortable. The frightened
women ran hither and thither on the
deck, while the men strove to pacify
them and to assure them that there was
no danger.
Men were Immediately sent below on
the ferry boat to see if the hull had
been injured below the water line.
Officers of the boat ran to the fright
ened passengers and assured them that
all danger was over, and that there was
no possible chance of sinking.
SO far as could be judged OF the Nour-
mahal, she was uninJured, except that
her bowsprit was snapped short off and
her nose twisted slightly. a hastv ex-
animation was made by her officers. and
I then she steamed on her way 10 the
Yacht races.
