Mr.. Jones brings particulars of the dam
age done to the island by the storm of a
month ago. and the subsequent high tides.
The Richmond Cottage was swept away.
and the ordinary tides came to within two
feet OF the Baltimore Cottage, as we'll as
within two feet of the harbor.i At high tide
the water comes nearly over the embank-
ment In front Of Mr.. Nathan Cobb's house
While little damage has been done to the
lower portion of the island, the tendency of
old ocean seems to be to cut the island In
twain between the hotel and the; Baltimore
Cottage. a number of the islanders have
fought property on the mainland with a
view of removal Mr.. Nathan Cobb moves
this week from his house to that on the
lower end Of the island, formerly occupied
by George Isdell. The latter wifi move to
the house of his father-in-law, Mr.. Frank
Reynolds, and Mr.. ReynoldsiWfM move his
family to the mainland ~,
The majority of the islanders are fearful
lest the island will be washed away. Capt.
Thomas Spady, however, is firm In his be-
lief that the present ravages Of the ocean
are temporary, and that old Cobbs Island
will stand. n

He Was Too Lazy to. Live.
From the Fort Madison qowa) Democrat.

From the Fort Madison Qowa) Democrat
One of the LATEST men Iowa has yet pro-
duced died recently in the Fort Madison
penitentiary as result of his attempt to
escape labor. A convict, named Airport,
several months ago cut off one of his fin
gers to keep from working, but the injury
soon healed and he had to resume work
again. Or late he had worked but little, al
ways being done before noon, but he con-
cluded he would not work at all, and to
keep from it he inflicted an injury upon
himself which hac a result more fatal to
rim than he probably anticipated. Re-
Gently to escape work he poured a quaint
ty of very strong I've on his arm, and the
result was sore as big as mans hand.
But the I've was so strong that it ate its
way into the flesh and destroyed the blood
vessels: The result was lockjaw, from
which he died yesterday morning.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
l notice in your edition Of December 20
the following item taken from the New
York World:
Two Full Moons In a Month.
From the New York World.
PROBABLY not many people are aware that
this December was different from any other
since the beginning of the Christian era
December, 1895, enjoyed the unique priv
ilege Of having two full moons, which is a
phenomenon that has not occurred in any
December in 1,S96 years. The coincidencs
OF the last event of this kind happening il,
the same year as the birth of Christ was nor
widely noted, however, or it would probably
nave been looked upon by many as sgnifi-
can't The occurrence was a purely astro-
nomical one.
II the astronomer of the World had stop
ped to investigate for one moment he would
not have published such an astronomical i'm
possibility and mathematical absurdity.
Ihere have been scores of Defenders with
TWO full moons since the beginning of the
Christian era, and we have had two Decem-
bers within the last twenty years with two
full moons in each, namely, December, 1876
and December, 1884. H. s. CUMMINGS.
