RAMBLING REMARKS.
There are several subjects I want a
little more light ob, and I want it at once.
By at once I moan as I write these eras—
many hours before you read them. There
is a dull, led glow trom the incande,
cent globe above my desk, and I have i>
fiery red-beaded feeling all over.
I have fished up au oil-smelling kero
sene lamp, and, as it sputters away I am
only kept from doing a little double
leaded, fire and brimstone sputtering in
a vocal way myself by the presence of
Rev. John W. Bale in the shop. V e
haven’t enough dashes in the office to
say what I want to in print, and ea 'he
electric light people probably have some
excuse —they always Shave—it wouldn’t
be worth the trouble to set up the actual
words. Besides that I am a Christian,
and don’t believe it’s right to print such
words when it might cause the loss of
subscribers.
But wasn’t it bad, you users oi the
mysterious fluid for overcoming night?
Night before last it was impossible to see
by the light*! List night after a weak
attempt the lights went out altogether,
and a great stimulus was given the lamp
and candle trade.
“I don’t want to make light over our
trouble,” said a Tribune printer last
night after the machine had died down
and he was pulling type out of a case,
•‘but I would like —well to make a fight
over my case ”
“Why, that’s a 12,000 candle power
light you have now,” said slug 8 as he
glanced at the little globe.
“Yes, it takes 12,000 of them to make
a candle.”
And that little devil Andy held a light
ed match up to the globe to see if the
wire was giving any light.
To change the subject rather sudden
ly—for I don’t know at what moment I
might betray my true feelings on this
fight matter by an incautious word—
many Romans have been down to Atlan
t •. this week in the interest of various ap
plicants for positions to be filled by Gov
ernor Atkinson. Several are still in At
lanta. Among those who returned yes
terday morning were Judge Branham, J.
W. Ewing, Harper Hamilton, Jack King,
5 S. King, W. A. Wright, W. H. Steel*,
M. M. Pepper, Nat Harris and Jake
Moore.
While there are different opinions
about some positions, all agree that Jake
Moore is away head in his application for
principal keeper of the penitentiary.
I understand the L. & N. railroad is
going to put the old Rome depot tracks
and yard above high water. It is said
the hollow between the C., R. & C. and
Southern Bridges will be filled up and
covered with tracks. It does every
Roman good to see these' improvements
made.

PKOPHLTIU ’.CTOR HUGO.
His Startling Prediction About Napoleon
111 Came True.
The Due de Moray, Napoleon’s mouth
piece, actually wrote these truly infa
mous words: ‘‘lf you arrest Victor
Hugo, do what you will with him. ”
It was soon after this, when Napoleon,
wading through blood, trampling upon
women and children, persecuting and
silencing all that was best in France,
confirming his throne by bribery, cor
ruption, imprisonment, banishment and
wholesale murder—it was at such a
moment, this adventurer having got
himself accepted by the courts of Europe
as the ruler of the French, that Victor
Hugo hurled against the “Man of De
cember” these truly appalling but pro
phetic words:
“Let us not slay this man. Lotus
keep him alive. A superb punishment!
Oh, if one day he might pass along the
highway naked, bowed down, trembling
as the grass trembles at the wind, under
the execration of the whole human race!
People, stand aside! The man is marked
with a sign! Let Cain pass. He belongs
to God. ’ ’
An eyewitness described to me Na
poleon 111 as he appeared on the even
ing before Sedan—an old, bowed down
looking man, stooping on his horse, the
dye washed out of his hair, his mus
tache draggled, passing unsaluted by his
own officers, with the common soldiers
grinding their teeth and muttering
curses upon him. Had this vision risen
before the eyes of the prophet poet in
1852, his words could hardly have been
more aptly chosen. —H. R. Howeis in

GREATEST EVER KNOWN.
The Cotton Receipts In Koine Yesterday
Very Large.
Yesterday was a big day for cotton.
The fleecy staple began rolling in early
in the morning and last night the re
ceipts wore larger than for any day ever
known in Rome.
The cotton is of a better grade than
last season. The price for middling
yesterday was 5 hi.
The receipts in Rome this season will
run a great deal higher than last season.
THE ROME TRIBUNE, THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 1, 1594.
BESTIR YOURSELVES.
This is the Time to Agitate a Union
Depot for Rome.
THE NEW I, C. & ST. L. DEPOT.
The People of Koine Should Get Together
uud Discuss it—lt Shouldn’t be
a Hard Matter.
The much agitated question of a union
depot for Rome is being discussed again.
The new N., G. & St. L. depot has
started the people to talking and several
plans nave been proposed toward ob
taining what Rome needs worst —a union
depot in the heart of the city.
'I here is plenty of room at the foot of
Broad street and that is the most con
venient place both for the railroads and
i ho traveling public.
Rome is au important city to the rail
road people and they should have what
they asa for.
Mr. Wm. A. Wright has always been
the first to advocate this and no one has
worked harder for a union depot than he.
“Is would not be a very hard matter, I
should think,” said Mr. Wright yes
terday, “to get wbat we want now. The
N., C. & St. L. will build a handson e
depot here and I don’t see why the other
roads could not come in and make a
union depot at the foot of Broad street.
The 0., R & C. railroad is already there
and it would be very easy for the South
ern railway to get their trains over.
“I he people of Rome should get to
gether and see what could be done in
this direction.”
Is is true that this is an old subject
and one that b»s been talked about for
years, but nothing can be done by wait
ing for the railroads to voluntarily build
a carshed.
The Southern railway could very easily
connect with the old Rome railroad track
in North Rome and come in that way.
Mr. Wright said, “we should get to
gether and do something,” and that is
the only way to do it.

No wonder so many fall by the way.”

that is more intense and more depressing
than anything known to tired muscles.

Mrs. Jennie A .Ruff, whose portrait is
riven above, writing from her home in
Sebewa, M'ch., says:
"My husbmd has had a stomach
t>ouble for over a year, trom which he
suffered the tortues of a daily death. He
could eat scacely anything, and what he
did eat soured on his stomach nnd caused
him to bloat so terribly, that life was
only a burden. He tried physicians to
no avail, and as I was taking Paine’s
celery compound, he thought) he would
try it. In a short time he was surprised
to find that be could eat anything with
no bad effect, the b'oa’ing is all gone and
his stomach is in good condition.
“I had suffered for years with periodi
cal spells of sick headache: pen cannot
describe what I suffered at such times,
for the last two years I noticed that my
nervous system was getting all out of
order: I bad no appetite and was getting
to be a mere shadow of my former self.
I was nervous, weak, could not rest
nights, and felt, gloomy ant low spirited.
Rtfore I had taken one bottle of Paine’s
celery compound I began to feel like a
new person, and now, after taking six
bottles, am enjoying perfect health. I
have not had a spell of sick headache in
over a year. My nerves are all right, my
sleep is like that of a healthy child, and
I feel more like one than like a women of
thirty. Ido all my own work and bless
Paine’s celery compound for what it has
done for me and mine.
,- We have used in our family 12 or 15
bottles of Paine’s celery compound.
Doctors’bills are now unknown in our
family.”
