Myers, Jr. ! i - ------ Getting Ready for the Fourth. We hear that there will be the biggest time at the Hammocks and Wrightsville Beach on the Fourth that has ever beeif known in the his tory of the road. At least, such will be the case if an attractive pro gramme can ensure, it. This pro gramme has not yet been fully made up but Capt. .Nolan is giving his spare time now to the perfection of the details. It should not be delay ed, however, as our friends in the country will want to know what we are going to uo about it and takes some little time to disseminate news outside of the city. The Work of the Waves. Now, who was that young man who suddenly parted company with his bathinjr suit in the surf at Caro lina Beaqh yesterday? It was really a ludicrous thing. Some strings or buttons gave way; while a party of gentlemen were in the surf and the victim of the disaster had a hard tfme of it getting back into his in teguments. He succeeded eventual ly, while standing in the water up to his chest, but not before the sharp eyes of the girls on the beach had spied out his sad plight and had ex tracted a great deal of amusement therefrom. Another Hlgii way Outrage." Alex. Moore, a venerable colored man, a good citizen anu an indus trious farmer, who resides about four miles North of the city, was. re turning from market yesterday about noon when he was suddenly attacked by a highwayman and only his cries for assistance prevented him from.being robbed. He called in to see us this morning and gave us the particulars. He says that he was on his way home 'from market and not far distant from it, and was riding quietly along in his cart, with his head bent down, when suddenly without any previous warning what- ever tne oiow or a cuugei ieu upon his head with terrific force. It was as though he had been struck by lightning.. In a moment or so he was unconscious but recovered and began to cry tor help. His horse started and threw him out of the cart and then he ran a short dis tance up the road, but knowing that his assailant could easily overtake him he halted and faced about, as he did uot want to be struck again frombehipd. The scoundrel soon' came up with him and aimed blow after blow at his head which was warded off by the old man in throw ing up his left arm to protect his head. With each blow the high wayman demanded his money .and the old man continued to scream for assistance. Finally, the robber, evi dently fearing that his cries would bring help, sprang from the road and disappeared, without having obtained the money. The old man received a very severe blow on the back of his head and his left arm was very much bruised in his attempt to ward off the blows. All this happened on the public highway, a much traveled road, only four miles from the city, in the mid dle of the day. The assaulted man cau only de scribe his assailant as a young and vigorous colored man but he says that other parties who passed up the road just ahead of him savr the man lyiug near the road with, a stout cudgel under his head and that they could identify him.. And now let us ask the county authorities if any effort is to be made to stop this business and to apprehend the scoundrels. The facts cannot be any longer ignored. The people cannot afford tq be ter rified by a few miscreants, who set at defiance all law and order, re gardless of the fact that a halter is dangling before their eyes. Tbe thing can be stopped and the'man caught It will b lynch law if the people have to lake It upon themselves to ajprehentl tfieTillafn?. . :J D1 Progress. It is very iraportantln this age of vast material progress that a rem edy be pleasing to the taste and to the eye, easily take"n, acceptable to i the stomach and healthy in Its na ture and effects. Possessing these qualities, Syrup of Figs is the one perfect laxative and most diuretic known. gentle The Family Grocery at Carolina Reach. Those who go to Carolina, Beach and drop in to see that clev r gen tleman, Mr. Hans A. Kure, akthe store he has opened there will be surprised to find what a large "and extensive stock he carries. He owns the lrge club house building and he has filled it full of saleable iirtH cles. The beauty of it is that he sells them, too. The venture has proved thus far very successful. Mr. Kure has just completed the erection of stables there. He has his own horse and buggy, the first ever carried to the Beach, and is ar ranging stables for a number of cows, so as to supply fresh milk to the residents: He owns a consid erable tract of land there and next season he proposes, toclear it and ley ut a truck garden. His family, are resident at the Beach during the season, he last year having erected a handsome house south of the pa vilion, which is the largest cottage, by the way, at Carolina-Beach. And Still Another. Since the report , published . else where relative to the attempted robbery yesterday afternoon near the city we hear of another incident which cannot with exactness be called an actual attempt at robbery but 'something which, was plainly pielimtnary to such an attempt. The facts are these:' Mr. James Epps, a well known citizen, who is frequently employed on Mr. Frank Gause's lighters, has x 1 recently none some wont on a tank for the Standard Oil Co. and tins morning, aoouu o ciock, was paid off. With n part of the money he purchased a pistol and a box of cartridges and then taking with him his breech-loading shot gun he in vited a Triend, Mr. Frank Knox, to go with him outside the city limits and have a shoot, Mr. Epps offering to lire the pistol ugainst the gun. The offer was accepted-and crossing Smith's Creek the two halted in the road a short distance beyond the bridge and not far from the Poor House and each fired twice at a target on a- tree. Mr. Epps had then left three shots in hi pistol and had two cartridges for the- gun in his pocket. On being asked by Mr. Knox if he had any more balls he jokingly replied that he had not. Soon after these words "escaped him a white man anil two colored men emerged from behind some thick bushes lining the road, - where they had evidently been in hiding, and one of the latter advanced on Mr. Epps and asked him for change for a dollar. Being willing to oblige him,. Mr. Epps ran his hand into his pocket and produced some loose change. Just then he noticed that tlie white man had got around to his right and that, the other man was edging around nervously to his left.- Turning suddenly Mr. Epps demanded what they all meant .by trying to surround him in that way when the reply came: "We will let you know that directly' Thus was plain enough for Mr. Epps, who stepped back and cocked his pistol and told them he would first present them with a little cold lead. As he cocked it tire men seemed to think that there must be a few balls left, despite the lire viousj assort ion and they broke and ran.' The white mair and one of the colored men made for the railroad track, through the Poor House field, aud the other jumped the fejice into the Sans Souei plan laiion. On the WesbJ 'As he did so Mr. Epps raised the pistol, tookgood aim and fired and as the tmtn fell iDto a patch of blackberry bushes on the other side he. feels sure that it; iuuh nave I11L miu.
