a Bridge Endangered.

Since our last Issue the Charlton
and Muscle Fork have been bank
full, but neither quite reached the
overflow point.
The edriftwood in the Charlton river,
owing TO the long continued low
stage Of the water, has been more
plentiful during the late rise than
for years past. Ii began to acsumu-
late on one OF the tiers OF piliug just
above the bridge across the Charlton
river, between Ksytesville and Salir-
bury, and continued to accumulate
till il extended for 800 yards up the
river. This drift in such close proI-
unity to the bridge greatly eudsn-
grred that structure.
Judge Herring. presiding justice of
the county court. was notified on
Tuesday, and he sent Bridge Com
missioner Wires down Wednesday to
investigate the matter and see what
could be done to save the bridge, or
whether the removal { the drift was
necessary. Mr.. w;r-- came down AND
went out to tn bridge on Wednesday,
but the water had fallen 60 much
that he Thought it would be q big
job to remove the drift, and 90 he
returned to Brunswick and report to
Judge Herring and await further

VOLUME XIV
Admires Our Motto

A gentleman living at Laurelton,
n. c., who chanced to see "a copy OF
the COURIER, was thus moved TO ad-
miratiou on noticing our motto,
ssMAS Was MADE TO HUSTLE"
Laurelton, N. e., July 18th, '95.
EDITOR CHARLTON CoURIER:-"Man
Was Made TO HUSTLE" God bless ye!
ANY paper that will cause a man,
woman or child to hustle that might
not have hustled, but for it's gentle
admopition, 10 q beBefactor OF man
kind.
A friend has sent Us q copy OF your
paper. We were always u crank
on brief and wise sayings, especially
Newspaper notices. We have al
uays thought Davy Lrockett's leg
aey, "Be sure you are right, then 10
ahead" !" the best for q news and po-
Htical paper, but We recede and pass
YOU the cake, and suggest the CoURI-
rR 10 "dirt cheap" st q dollar q year
to any family In Charlton county TO
have friend like the COURIER drop
In once q week and whisper In an en-
couraging tone that none but its
readers can hear: MAN Was Made
to Hustle" lt makes one feel as
though be had taken a tonic.
How many a useful hour has been
wasted beside the fireplace for lack OF
a realization OF the fact. that "Man
Was Made TO Hustle" and that only
the hustler "gets there" and that,
too, in spite OF the weather, low
prices, hard times, monopolies,
"crimes of the selfish" and sich and
eich.
How many a boy has grown to
mans estate and wasted years OF
youth and strength, only living in
stead OF "hustliLg." before realizing
that "Man Was Made TO HUSTLE"
that God only helps those who help
themselves; that man was the srchi-
tect of his own fortune; that youth
was the time TO build determination,
broad and solid. for manhood; that
the boy was father to the man. and
that no account boy was apt to
make q no account man.
Brace up boys, and do your beet,
and every time the COURIER comes
into the house. glance at its motto,
and hustle 20 doing something that
ought to be done and in five years
you may count yourself "a hustler,
and on the high road to- success in
life.

CASTE OF CHARACTERS.
SYNOPSIS.

This comedy is founded upon en
npocryphal anecdots OF the great
Euglish actor, David Garriek.
Ada Iogot, the daughter of a
wealthy East India director,
having fallen in love with Garrick,
while witnessing his performances,
her father entices the player to
his house anu there proposes To pay
him "a large sum OF money to leave
the stage, il not the country. IDgot
desires his daughter To marry Chivy,
a horse-racing, wine-drinking Squire,
whom she heartily despises. Garrick
suggests TO the merchant to extend
tn him an invitation to dinner,
promising that he woulo so behave
as to induce Ada TO accept for her
husband the man OF Ingot's selection.
Alter dinner and during the evening,
Garrick Stimulates inebriety and con-
ducts himself in such a manner
as to disgust the young lady. After
his retirement, Chivy, 5esotted with
wine, reveals to Ingot in the hearing
OF his daughter, that, having causu-
ally met with Garrick later in the
evening, at convent Garden club,
the actor had confessed the trick he
had played. and had accepted n
challenge to fight duel with n
buck. who had spoken disr.spectful-
ly of the merchant and OF Ada. Con-
vinced OF Garrick's love for her, Miss
Ingot hurries to his lodgings, at an
early hour, to avert the duel, where
she 10 surprised by the unexpected
arrival OF her father and cousin.
Garrick appears and illustrates the
nobility of his true character to
such q degree that the merchant
discards Chivy as "a son-in-law, and
entreats the actor TO accept the
hand OF his daughter, In this wise
verifying the correctness OF bis
promise that Ada should marry the
man of her fathers choice.

LIGHTNING'S FRANKS.
IL Knocks Down Several People and
a Yoke ofOxsn-No One
Seriously Hurt.

During the thunderstorm last Thursday
morning lightning struck a tree on g. l.. Sis.
ler's place, near Keytesville station, tore a
large silver from the tree and hurled it some
80 or 40 feet where it found lodgment in a
crack just under the cave OF a shaaty occu-
pied by Ben Hughes. COL, and his family.
b. F. Brewer and John Rannehan, two car
penters, and John Hayes, col. who had been
working on a new barn for Mr. sisler, Mr.
siser himself and two other employees, Earl
Morgan and John Wsis, together with four
yoke OF oxen, with which weis and Morgan
had been doing some hauling, had ell collect.
cd under this same tree and another one near
by to seek shelter from the rain.
Every member OF the party, except Mr.. Sis
lsr. and also one yoke Of the oxen was knock.
cd down by the electric bolt, but, strange to
say, none OF them were hurt beyond being
nearly frightened ont Of their wits.
The wife OF Ben Hughes. COL, who was
washing under another tree not far distant,
became "as pale as q ghost" after she rsaliz
ed what had occurred.
Earl Morgan, when he came to his Senses
found himself lying on the floor Of Hughes
cabin. with a bad taste in his mouth" but
hadn't any idea how he got there. He insist
ed that his neck was broken, and t.Iat the
wagon had run over him. 1t was with some
difficulty he was persuaded that he was still
alive, and that his funeral would necessarily
be postponed indefinitely.
Mr.. sisler can not account for his not hav-
ing been knocked down, too, but We rather
suspect that he carries a rabbits foot.
1t was indeed a narrow escape for all OF the
party, and they have all since been congrat-
ulating themselves that the accident was not
more serious.

Badger Sent to jail.

Albert Badger pleaded guilty to
carrying a slung-shot in Squire
Newbold's court, at Salisbury, Last
Thursday and was sentenced to the
county Jail for FIVE days. Besides
this he will have to serve time for the
costs.
Badger lie the young man who was
arrested in Salisbury on the night OF
the fourth OF July for drunkenness
and fined by Mayor Emmerich. The
slupg- shot was on Badger's person
at the time of his arrest, but as it
took all the money he could CON-
mand to pay his fine and costs for
drunkenness, Albert was turned
over to the state authorities on the
slung-shot charge for the reason, no
doubt. az Marshal Gilchrist said.
"there was nothing in it for Salie-
bury"
We hope If another case of this
kind lie ever put off on the state, the
prosecuting attorney, OF this coun-
ty. will courteously but firmly refuse
to prosecute. If the incorporated
towns and cities of the fourth class
in this county can't afford to punish
offenders against their city's laws,
then the state ought not to be called
upon to foot the bill in melting out
punishment to such characters as
Badger.

TERMS OF AGREEMENT.
The Settlement Arranged Between
Mexico and Guatemala.

The Settlement Arranged Between
Mexico and Guatemala.
According to the Mexico correspondent Of
the New York Herald, the settlement be-
tween Mexico and Guatemala is as follows:
The government of Guatemala declares
that, thinking it had the right to do so, 1t
has exercised rights of sovereignty in the
territory of West Sacantum, and it has not
intended to offend Mexico. Nevertheless,
for the sake Of harmony, Guatemala agrees,
through feeling of justice, to pay an in
demnity to Mexico for damages done by her
occupation Of the territory and for the de-
struction of property. An arbitrator, to be
appointed by common accord, will fix the
amount of indemnity.
Mexico desists from her claim for indem-
nifty for expenses in mobiliZing troops on
the Guatemala frontier. owing to the occu-
patton of logging camps on the West Sacan-
tum river by Guatemalan agents.
Guatemala consents to an immediate occu-
patton of that portion of the disputed terri
tory already decided by both surveying
commissions to belong to Mexico. On the
other hand, Mexico agrees to do the same
concerning the territory declared to belong
to Guatemala.
In case where the surveyors disagree the
mean between the two surveyors Is to be
accepted.
Article 6 of the agreement fixes the geo.
graphical position Of Chixoy and Usuma-
cinta.
The agreement is to be submitted for rat
ification to the Mexican senate and the ma
tional assembly of Guatemala, but 1t is mu-
tually agreed that the agreement may be
published without waiting for its ratifica-
ton.
