Thanksgiving
' Dinner.
Twenty-egiht line turkeys, fresh
from the pea fields and have not
been cooped up and will not be.
They are in a large yard feasting
upon corn and oats. We are going
to sell them cheaper than you
could buy one from a wagon. Eight
cents the pound will get them,
though other dealers are getting ten
cents the pound. You can give
your order now and get the bird
when you want it. Remember we
have only twenty-eight to sell at
1 that price.
We have had a big sale on our
South Georgia Cane Syrup. It
came from a farm where adultera
tion is unknown, and you can eat it
knowing it will not give you indi
gestion. Only 50c the gallon.
Tandem Dessert Peaches 3 pound
cans at 15c is a bargain rare. The
Iruit is fine.
The lull weight Pie Peaches
which we sell at 10c the can. is a
better fruit than that we sold you
last season at 15c the can.
How About Fruit Cake?
If you want a good cake get the
best fruits for it. Cleaned cur
" rants, large seeded raisins and
transparent citron are some of our
offerings for the making of a good
cake
We have more prunes than were
ever purchased at one time by any
house in Rome, and they aie here
to sell. Think of getting nice, fat
prunes at 10c the poun !.
Olives 25c the quart.
4 cans Deviled Ham for 25c
1 package Gelatine 10c., 1 pack
age Macaroni 10c.
Fat family Mackerel 2 for sc.
16 pounds good Rice for SI.OO
These are bargains which we offer
six days of each week.
The Cup That Cheers.
If you would be cheerful have
only the best, and when you get our
Java and Mocha Coffee you get the
bes'. Only 35c the pound.
Our biend of roasted Coffees at
25c is the same we sold some weeks
ago at 30c the pound.

A KEY IS LOCKED UP
A Yunng Man Held on Charge of
Horse Stealing
ATTEMPTS TO SELL 1 HORSE AND BUGGY
He Came Here From Cedartown and Hit*
Actions Got Him Into
Tronbl •.
The eagerness of a young man to
sell a bay horse and a good buggy
caused his arrest yesterday.
He gave his name as Key at Cunyus’
stable on his early morning arrival
and said be was anxious to dispose of
the team in order to buy a wheel.
After some dickering he accepted a
very small cash offer and proposed to
return and deliver the team. The
acceptance caused suspicion on
the part of the livery men. Key did
not return, but soon, after his depart
ure, a telegram from Cedartown an
nounced that a horse and buggy had
been stolen to which Key’s turnout
corresponded, Key's whereabouts
was discovered and Patrolman Logan
arrested him.
Mr. Henry Huston, came up from
Cedartown, and claim the turnout and
swore out a warrant. Huston says he
and his wife and three children were on
their way from Adams county Indiana to
Milton Florida where his sister lives and
was met up with by Key at LaFayette
who seemed to be a hale fellow well met
and they journeyed together as far as
town.
Here they put up at the home of a far
mer named Reed and he turned his horse
into Reed’s lot for the night. When he
waked up yesterday morning this team
Cedai was missing
Key is now being held to await the
proper court papers from Cedartown
officials which are expected today.
Key also carried off Huston’s pistol, so
the later alleges. At any rate a pistol
was found in hisposscsson and he will be
held on the charge of carrying concealed
weapons until the more serious charge is
investigated.

THE SPECTATOR.
The Spectator was held up the other
night by a young lady and is now
minus a diamond ring a box of cara
mels and two dozen roses.
Uncle Sam should make Cuba a
Christmas present of her freedom.
That would about fill her threadbare
hosiery.
It’s a true saying that politics makes
strange bedfellows and the seemingly
impossible is always happening. A
piece of nearly forgotten history I re
member will prove the axiom.
Soon after President Cleveland’s de
feat in 1888 Hon. Hugh S. Thompson,
who had served two terms as governor
of South Carolina and was then as
sistant secretary of the United States
treasury, was nominated by Mr. Cleve
land for the presidency of the civil
service commission. Vice President
Stevenson was then fourth assistant
post master general. Mr. Cleveland
nominated him for Judge of the court
of claims at the same time of Thomp
sons nomination. The Senate which
at that time was overwhelmingly »e
--publican declined to confirm either
nomination saying that a defeated
candidate (Cleveland) for re-election
to the presidency should not have the
right to nominate men for life offices.
Now here is where the singular part
comes in.
A few weeks later Mr. Harrison was
inaugurated and almost his first act
was to nominate Thompson for the
democratic member of the civil service
commission and the same senate who
had scarcely a month before refused
now unanimously confirmed Ex-Gov
ernor Thompson. Mr. Vance, of
North Carolina, voting against

Do You Use It?
It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayer’s Hair Vigor. It re
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use
Ayer’s Hair Vigor.
Thompson saying he (Vance) did not
believe in the efficiaey of the eivi
service though a warm friend of
Thompson’s.
Then again just four years later Mr.
Stephenson was elected vice-president
and of course ever since has presided
over the same senate that refused his
nomination as a judge of the court of
claims. Thus indeed does politics
make strange bedfellows, and here in
Georgia we have Hon. A. S. Clay, a
practically unknown man to the coun
try at large elected to fill an office that
the masses hardly daredjdream of his
occupying.
After a period of apparent desuetude
the X rax has come forth and threatens
to enter upon a season of winter gayety.
The X ray cannot be suppressed as long
as the microbes of fancy continue to hold
despotic sway in the reportorial intellect.
When last heard of the X ray was en
gaged in such menial and ordinary ser
vice as locating fugative bullets that ram
ified the’anatomie o of persons who were
foolish enough to try and stop them.
But the X rax has progressed. It is haid
to keep a good thing like the X ray
down.
Instead of humbly confining itself to
the very laudable work of finding bul
lets, dislocations and compound fractures
the X ray has invaded the alimentary re
cesses of the infantile abdomen. It has
been used to locate a penny in the stom
ach of a baby.
Here is a promising field for the sur
plus energies of the indefatigable X ray.
The infantile abdomen has been more in
strumental in contracting the circulating
medium than all the gold-bugs of the
east. It has also cornered the bqtton
market and has been a favorite receptacle
for tacks and pins, while an occasional
marble has served to give graceful em
bonpoint to the diminutive but capacious
stomach.
Now that the quiet and insinuating X
ray has invaded the intestinal tact it
promises not only to become a blessed
boon to speechless childhood, but will
probably occount for the mysterious dis
appearance of much of the prouuct of our
button factories.

MADE A HOT CHASE
Mr. Raymond McConnell and Posse
After itc Mau
BELIEVED TO BE POPE’S SLAYER
They Chased Him From Shannen to
Plainville and
Back.
Mr. Raymond McConnell and party
returned last night from a chase after
the man thought to be the slayer of
Gideon Pope.
Yesterday word reached the city
that a man was hiding near Shannon
who answers the description of the
man who shot Gid. Pope to death.
Before they arrived at Shannon
Creekmore and his men had a battle
royal with tlie fellow when they un
dertook to arrest him. One of Creek
more’s men shot this fellow in the
band and he dropped his eioublebar
reled shot gun which they now have.
The posse with the hounds left the
city and hastened up there where they
were joined by Creekmore and his section
bauds. A trail was quickly struck and
soon the fellow was discovered. He has
been seen around that neighborhood for
some ten days or more and answers the
exact description.
The posse.got so close as to see him
two or three times.
They chased him from Shannon to
Plainville and back down the mountain.
They ran him through the edge of a
pond and again he eluded the dogs.
Night and all its blackness overtook them
and they returned to the city at midnight
but will go back early this morning.
Creekmore and his men have out senti
nelsand every avenue of escape will be
closely guarded. They think they have
run the muiderer down and that togeth
er with his wound and the stiffness he
will have by his long run will prevent
his getting far out of the way.
Creekmore is fired with vengeance
and his men partake his determina
tion to arrest the fellow at all hazards.
Mr. McConnell stated to The Tri
bune that tlie neighborhood is arous
ed and the fellow’s hiding known and
that an escape is now almost imprac
ticable. He said that the description
of the fusilate between Creekmore’s
men and the fellow reminded the set
tlers of a war time skirmish, as the
fellow had two pistols and
the shot gun and fired several
rounds which are now exhausted
and unless he has a confederate it
will be impossible for him to replenish
his ammunition. Nothing but super
human strength will enable the fellow
to get far away from where darkness
overtook him.
