Last Evening
WITH A FIRST CLASS ORCHESTRA

Parlors a <1 Dry Good* Emporium
The scene at the elegant millinery
parlors of Bass Bros. & Co. was daz
zling in its resplendent loveliness last
evening.
The proprietors and their salesmen
■were attired in evening dress and the
wealth and beauty of Rome thronged
the spacious interior of their great
dry goods emporium.
Such a scene has never beep wit
nessed at a millinery opening in North
Georgia, and it was an honor and
credit to the proud city and to this
enterprising firm that upholds it by
adding to the high standard of its
business reputation.
We can live in a city or in a village,
just as we may elect, here in Rome,
and that enterprising and public
spir firm has elected that we shall
reach up to the highest standard of
metropolitan methods and is carry
ing otfc the idea in its manner of
doing business.
The attention of the visitors was at
tracted at the entrance by the beauti
ful windows where the shimmer of
silken fabrics in the tenderest tints of
an autumnal sunset dazzled theceye
with their radiant beauty.
Purple is the vogue thi% season,
and in royal purple, fit for imperial
adornment, the millinery window was
decorated by the skilled hands of
Mrs. George Ramey, Miss. Mynson
and Mr. Will Trout, all artists in their
line.
Polished mirrors gave an additional
spendor to the scene, and the illusion
caused one to feel as if he were gazing
down an extended vista filled with the
triumphs of the milliner’s art. A large
doll stands arranged in the height of
fashion, showing off to excellent advan
tage the latest n iveties. Arranged in the
most fetching style are arranged about
the window hats, Tam O’Snanters,
plumes, feathers and trimmings of the
daintiest variety.
On the right is the dry goods window
draped in the richest products of the
loom in the way of gorgeous silks, glace
taffetas, ombraya and Persian effects.
No such line of silks has ever been seen
in Rome.
lUlooked as if a mountain sunset, with
•all its loveliest effects, bad been caught
and materialized to furnish raiment for
the fair dames and damoiselles of the Rill
City.
Inside the scene was entrancing and
the ladies that thronged the great
establishment could not find adjectives
sufficient to express their admiration.
One entire sidtf Os the big store
is taken up with elegant evening suits, of
cv.-'-y s' iclc and texture with trimmings
in nil the latest novelties to match.
The center of the store is filled with
black dress goods in inconceivable variety
and capes and cloaks of every design,
style and finish according to the prevail
ing mode.
Next comes the shoe department, a
whole store full of beautiful goods in
itself, all stylesand prices, with leggings,
gaiters and such things as are only to be
found in such variety at a place like this.
Mr. Fleming G. Taylor presides over that ■
department, and it is nicely carpeted,
conveniently arr mged and conducted on
the metropolitan plan.
Taking the elevator the visitoas were
conducted to the second floor and ushered
into the superb parlors presided oder by
Mrs. George Ramey, to whose skill and
exquisite taste is due the beauty of their
adornment.
The e were three of these parlors dec
orated with a frieze of red, white and
blue, with li tie flags fluttering from
among the sheeny folds, with chenille
curtains and moire ribbons ai d softly
illuminated by shaded lamps in beautiful
designs. In the midst of these costly
decorations were stately palms that sug
gested topical luxuriance, and the scene
was as fair as a droam.

delicious music rose and fell while excla
mations of wonder and delight were
heard on every h&qd The orchestra was
conducted by Prof. Charles Buchanan,
first violin; Prof. C. A. Thompson,
pianist; Messrs. Will Harbour, second
violin: E. C. Ford, first cornet. Joe Pat
ton, second cornet, and Charlie Ferris,
double bass.
Among the wonders of those par
lors draped in a style of oriental
luxuriance of design by Miss. Ramey
and brightened and beautified by
the handiwork of Mrs. Mynson,
are some of the most elegant and
tasteful creations of the millinery
artist ever seen in-Rome, hat
for a soon to-be bride, of cream vel
vet, cream tips, moire ribbons and
four handsome tips with a pure
white dove with ruby eyes and snowy
wings outstretched like an emblem
of that peace which passeth under
standing.
Another for the same bride is of black
chenille and velvet trimmed with white
aigrette and white moire ribbons tipped
with black, French crown of white kid.
Still another bride’s hat is trimmed in
iris effects with autumn tints and soft
hued blossoms beautifully blended.
A brown hat with embroidered crown,
trimmed in turquoise blue tips, is another
iainty ci cation for a bride to be.
Besides these beautiful things there
is an endless beauty of hats, small
and medium, close round hats and
chipper little bonnets, bits of bright
ness and sauciness, tricked out with
ribbons and feathers, brilliant in
cabochons and buckles, also bondeaux
effects, a variety of feathers and beau
tiful, large Paradise aigrettes that
give height and tone so much desired;
untrimmed millinery in great variety,
new and fresh in newness. Never
betpre in felt is there so much to
please the eye. For the children--
they hav’ent forgotten the children
“ flats ” and the “ Tam O’Shanter
crown,” as odd as pretty.

question*. Those who attended the grand

HIS FIIIINDB UEKE
S me Were in the City Testerclay and Ta k d
Os lhe Killing.
Several friends of Lester Echols, who
killed Marshal'Tidwell, of Seney, were
in the city yesterday.
They, as might be supposed, try to pro
tect the young man and tell a somewhat
different story of the shooting from that
which has been printed.
That Echols will give himself up to the
authorities they declare to be a fact.
O-ne who is very close to the young
man, and in a position to know his
whereabouts and intentions if anybody
does, said to a Tribune man:
‘‘Lester only ran away because his
friends advised him that rarties were
after him with guns and he had better
keep out of their way for a while. lam
cestain he will give himself up, and that
within a few days. He is not afraid of
trial, for Tidwell had threatened to kil
him, and many things can be shown
tending to prove that he acted in defense
of himself.”
This, ofcourse, is the statement of an
Eehols’ partisan, but he is one in the
closest touch with the slayer of Tidwell,
and his positive statement that Lester j
would, soon give himself up, together
with surrounding circumstances, should
have some,weight.
The officers are inclined to be of the
opinion that it is simply a shrewd nave
to cause them to relax their efforts and
then slide him out of the country.

BABY IN HER ARMS
A Woman Struck by a Passenger
Train Yesterday
AND KNOCKED FROM A TRESTLE
Into » Crnek Below-A Ten Year 011 Boy
Was A'so Struck—lnjuries
Not Serious.
A woman holding a year old baby in
her arms was knocked from a trestle
into Silver creek yesterday morning by
an incoming passenger train on the
Southern railway.
Her son, a boy of eight years, was
also thrown from the trestle.
Her husband and three of their chil
dren reached the end of the trestle in
time to step from the track and escape.
The woman now lies at the Emergen
cy hospital badly but not seriously hurt,
according to the physicians statement.
The boy is all right except for six
bruises.
The baby-is unhurt, and appears none
the worse for the ducking in the creek.
It almost miraculous that the
injuries are not greater.
The accident occurred just after 10
o’clock yesterday morning. Mr. and
Mrs. T.. 0. Hight and children, who live
near Rock Run, Ala., have been visiting
Mrs. Hight's parents near Silver Creek.
Yesterday they intended returning
home, and walked up the railroad track,
to board the train for Alabama junc
tion.
Near the chemical works is a trestle
over Silver creek. Mr. Hight says he
thinks the noise from the works kept
them from hearing the passenger train
coming in from Atlanta They passed
on to the trestle, and the train dashed
upon thepi. As stated above Mrs. Hight
and three of the children got across in
time. The engineer did all in his power
to stop, but could not in time, and Mrs.
Hight and her baby and an eight year
old boy weie struck and thrown into the
creek some ten feet below.
The train was quickly stopped and
were taken on board and brought to the
East Rome depot The woman was suf
fering from the shock, and a bad lacera
tion in the back of the head, while the
boy complained mostly of a bruise on the
shoulder. It appeared that both were
hurt worse than they. really were, ana
between the groans of the injured and
the cries,of the children the scenr was a
pathetic one.
Train master Foraker! did all in his
power for them. Mrs. Hight was placed
upon a bed in the ticket office and Dr.
Garlingtoo, surgeon of the road, was
sent for. Being out on a call Dr. Harbin
was summoned and responded at once.
Shortly afterward Dr. Garlington
reached the scene, and these two able
physicians and surgeons lost no time
in alleviating the pains of the sufferers
and dressing their injuries.
It was found that Mrs. Hight’s skull
was not fractured, as had been feared,
and she rapidly recovered from the
shock. The back of the head was
badly lacerated, but the injury was
not considered serious. She was re
moved to the Emergency Hospital
and at last accounts was resting easy.
