Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U.S. Gov’t Repot?
ABSOLUTELY PURE
CLOSING EXERCISES.
The Entertaining Commencement at
Cave Spring.
IT WAS FILLED TO OVERFLOWING,
The Auitorium of the Institute During the
Rendition of the Attractive Program
Tuesday Evening.
The auditorium of the Hearn school
was filled to overflowing Tuesday
night, by the citizens of this com
munity and many from abroad, nam
ticipation of the entertaining exer
cises by Prof. Gray’s school.
Promptly at 8 o’clock the curtain
rose and the orchestra, composed of
home talent and led by that highly
accomplished lady, Mrs. H. P. Chil
ders, rendered some of the most ex
quisite music ever heard in this town.
The program, as previously arranged,
was gone through with, and for three
hours the interest of the audience
was held by the pupils, who took part
in this night’s exercises.
The following young gentlemen ren
dered the accompanying subjects to
the deiight oi the entire crowd:
Hal Sparks, the Hypodrome Race;
V. L. Maddox, Invective in a Trial; T.
E. Sutherlin, the South Faithful to
the Union; Paul H. Doyal, Stars and
Stripes; Homer Gray, the Unknown
Speaker; D. E. Reynolds, The Con
vict’s Soliloquy.
These young gentlemen had all
been trained in elocution, and the de
livery was almost perfect.
The young ladies engaged in the
exercises deserve more than a passing
notice.
Miss Ora Simmons, in “Sunday
Fishing,” and her part in “Jumbo
Jum” maintained her already exalted
reputation as an actor in comedy.
Miss Mallah Godfrey, rendered “Mad
Marguerite” finely, and gained the
applause of the audience. Miss Geor
gia Trout was loudly cheered*on her
delivery of her selection, “Buying a
Feller.” Miss Florence Gray gained
much applause and favorable com
ment on her recitation of “The Last
Banquet.” Miss Daisy Gray, in re
citing “Francisca,” brought much fa
vorable mention of her ease and grace
of manner, clear voice and feeling de
livery. Miss Curtis Arnold, as “Josiah
Allen’s Wife in a Theatre,” made a
decided hit in this much amusing fea
ture.
The young ladies were at their
sweetest, and have much to be proud
of in their excellent recitations.
The play “Jumbo Jum,” with Hal
Sparks as Jumbo, was all that could
be wished for in the way of pleasantry.
This play, with music by the orches
tra, closed the exercises of the even
ing.
Wednesday morning, promptly at
half past nine,the orchestra rendered
some of its most pleasing music, after
which the program, which consisted
of essays and original speeches by the
junior class, was carried out to a suc
cessful finish.
Miss Curtis Arnold, subject, “gin
ning,” was received with gladness by
the audience, because of the solid
truths enunciated.
Miss Willie Pettis, read an essay,the
title of which was “We Build the
Ladder by Which We Climb.” This
essay was filled with beautiful and
sublime thought.
The “Triumphant Democracy,” by
David E. Reynolds, was delivered in
that eloquent and easy style which
characterizes the speaker. No one
could hear that speech and not be a
better patriot to his country.
Misses Myrtle Pound and Georgia
Trout then played a duet on the piano,

and were applauded by the delighted
audience.
Miss Florence Gray’s essay, “The
Influence of Public Opinion,” was
good, and carried with it that which
brought delight to the house, as well
as teaching excellent truths.
Miss Georgia Trout read an unique
essay on “Dreams.” This was of a
humorous east, but much truth was
conveyed in its lines.
Mr. Homer Gray, subject, “The
University the Cradle of the State,”
and Mr. Paul H. Doyal, subject,
“Our Colors,” won ’the admiration of
the audience in the easy style, ele
gant language and perfect delivery of
the speakers. These two young men
will get into congress if a close watch
is not kept on them.
If all the efforts of this bright and
intelligent class of pupils could be
measured, perhaps the “Class Poem”
by Miss Mallah Godfrey, and the
“Class Prophecy,” by Miss Daisy
Gray, both entirely original, would
measure ahead of the other able pro
ductions of the class.
Editor W. O. Clement, of the Rome
Argus, being present, was invited to
address the audience, which he did in
a pleasant as well as pretty little
talk of some ten minutes. Suffice it
to say, that Mr. Clements made friends
among the people here by his timely
and pungent remarks.
Rev. L. B. Wilson, the orator of the
day, next entertained the audience in
a twenty-five minute speech, after
which the morning’s exercises closed
by the people being invited to visit
the art room, where Miss Annie Proc
tor, of Rome, displayed the handi
work of her pupils in this depart
ment. The progress developed shows
that Miss Proctor is a first class
teacher, and that her pupils are rap
idly becoming proficient in that
study.
The exercises will continue Wednes
day night, an account of which will
be furnished The Tribune by your
correspondent on the ground.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
By local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
car. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you
have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and, when it is entirely
closed, deafness is the result, and un
less the inflamation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition’ of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give one hundred dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circu

AT THE CAPITOL.
I am in my seventy-third year, and
for fifty years I have been a great
sufferer from indigestion, constipa
tion and billiousness. I have tried all
the remedies advertised for these dis
eases and got no permanent relief.
About one year ago, the disease as
suming a more severe and dangerous
form, I became very weak and lost
flesh rapidly. I commenced using Dr.
H. Mozleys Lemon Elixir, I gained
twelve pounds in three months. My
strength and health, my appetite and
my digestion were perfectly restored
and now I feel as young, and vigo
orous as I ever did in my life.

topics or the town.
Short Stories and {Street Gossip Caught on
the Run.
The following letter comes from a
friend who evidently appreciates the
efforts of The Tribune to give the [peo
ple a clean paper, devoid of all the
coarse and degrading tendencies so pain
fully apparent in some publications:
Mr. Editor: 1 want to thank you for
copying the article, ‘ ‘Some solid truths’ ’
from the Gainesville Eagle.
It should be made into tracts and
scattered broad-cast over the land.
This “double standard virtue” is too
common in our day and time, and if
something is not done to abate the ter
rible evil God only knows to what ex
tent it will be carried. There is much
being done to obliterate other vices,
why not make war against this shame
ful vice?
Oh, these husbands! If they could
only realize how terribly cruel the
wounds they inflict on the hearts of
their poor, faithful wives by their infi
delity, disrespectful, harsh treatment
surely, surely they would not yield to
the temptation they are ever ready to
claim beset them along life’s pathway.
Now Mr. Editor, on the other hand,
don’t you, and all other right minded
people, think, the woman who will
countenance the friendship of such a
man is equally as guilty of sin as he
is? That is if she has learned, from his
manners or otherwise of his weakness
for herself.
Should she not have respect enough
for herself, if not sympathy enough for
the man’s neglected wife, to shun his
society as she would that of satan? If
she is a married woman, the sin is all
the greater because she well knows
what such a class of friendships lead to.
Woman’s environments have much
to do with their characters but many an
innately pure, good life has been wrecked
by the flattering attentions of a plaus
ible man.
Many a beautiful fife blighted, many
a happy home made desolate. A man
who is faithful, kind and loving to • his
wife from the beginning to the end of a
reasonably long married life deserves a
monument of shining gold.
There are some such men about us
but they are few and far between.
God help and pity the wives in Rome,
and all over the world, who suffer in
silence these brazen insults from the
men who should guard and shield them
from every blight.
Again I say God help the neglected,
unloved wives everywhere!
You are doing a noble work and I
trust you will ever be blessed for crying
down the evils that daily betide us.
Your splendid Tribune is so high toned,
it is good to have it as a daily visitor.
