Where Is Rome?
Two sporting men dismounted the

ing at the East Rome depot. After one

he looked around and asked: “Where is
Rome?” “This is it, I suppose,” replied
the (other sport. A brakeman on the
Alabama, who was standing near and
heard the conversation, informed them
that Rome was about a mile away.
“Pshaw,” replied the men, “why don’t
you have a union depot in the city so
the people passing through can see it?”
This the brakeman could not answer, and
about that time the train pulled out.
