Mr. Clarence A. Benscoter, the able as
sistant general passenger agent of the
Southern railway with headquarters at
Chattanooga, spent yesterday in Rome. It
is seldom that he gets here, and it is
always a pleasure *o bis friends in Rome
to see him. It is doubtful if any railroad
man in the United States has an official
in a similar capacity who works harder
or more conscienciously than Mr. Bensco
ter. He is in authority over an immense
territory, and does a tremendous amount
of work. With the many religious, fra
ternal and public gatherings in the South
this year Mr. Bensco’ter has personally
seen that the Southern got the biggest
share, or all the business.
‘•Travel to the resorts in Western
North Carolina and in East Tennessee
over our road has been very large,”
said Mr. Benscoter yesterday. “As
to travel generally it has been good,
out rates have been so low that we
oonld not make much money.”
Mr. Benscoter spoke pleasantly of
Rome’s growth and future, and said
the Southern Railway people looked
on it as one of the most rapidly grow
ing cities anywhere on its lines.

The Trion Factory Herald in a his
torical sketch of those cotton mills
says th is of a former Roman:
“Upon the death of Mr. De F. All
good, Mr. A. S. Hamilton one of the
first business men of Rome, and a son
in-law of Judge A. P. Allgood, was
elected president. That he has man
aged the immense enterprise superbly
is attested by its standing in the finan
cial world. Mr. Hamilton is yet a
yonng man, and with his keen judg
ment, and untiring energy, the future
is full of immence possibilities for
Trion Factory.”

The fees received by the attorneys in

The Macon Telegraph has an Atlanta
Special as follows about the Rome pre
pared barbecue: “It was a significant
gathering of all the political hosts of the
capitol and from almost every quarter of
the state came representatives to share
in the feast. It was democratic in spirit
as well as in its political personnel and
every brother was given a cordial wel
come. It reached out and took in every
thing and among the gathered hosts
were the members of the Blalock com
mittee and the men who have been nn
der their rigid inspection for the past
month. This was a time to bury
troublesand not to breed them,, so
the investigated and the investigators
alike stood side by side around the
festal board. Judge Turner and Jake
Moore were at their best and presided
over the cue with their usual grace
and dignity. Governor Atkinson,
Attorney General Terrell, Mayor S. S.
King, Sheriff McConnell, Col. D. B.
Hamilton and Editor Addison Knowles
all of Rome, were present and contri
buted to a large portion of the pleas
ure of the occasion.
Hon. T. B. Felder, Col. Albert How
ell.JJr., Judge James A. Anderson,
Dr. J. B. S. Holmes, of Fulton, were
also on hand and took a prominent
part in the feasting and speech mak
ing of the occasion. Attorney Gen
eral Terrell was the political belle of
the occasion and received quite an
ovation from his friends at the cue.”

This compliment to a popular Rome
minister is from the Cartersville Cou
rant-Amer lean: “Rev. R. B. Headden,
of Rome, spent several days last week
in this city and county and was a prom
inent figure at the veterans’ reunion.
He was a gallant soldier in the old Phil
lip’s legion and as a minister here after
the war demonstrated his strength and
won tne affections of tee people, which
he still holds, as shown preceptibly by
the kind attentions he received.”

Smypathy for Dr. Battle.
The Walker County Messenger says:
“Mrs. A, J. Battle, wife of Dr. Battle,
president of Shorter College, died in
Macon Saturday, from congestion of the
brain. The body was interred in Macon
Monday. Mrs. Battle had been in feeble
health for a number of years, yet her
death was unexpected, and only one or
two members of her family were with her
in her last moments. Dr. Battle has the
entire sympathy of his many friends in
this his hour of bereavement,”
A Remarkable Cure of Chronic Diarrhoea.
In 1862, when I served my country as
a private in Company A, 1 67th Penn
sylvania Volunteers, 1 contracted
chronic diarrhoea. It has given me a
great deal of trouble ever since. I have
tried a dozen different medicines and
several prominent doctors without any
permanent relief. Not long ago a friend
sent me a sample bottle of Cbamber
lain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy, and after that I bought and
took a 50 cent bottle; and now I can say
that lam entirely cured. I cannot be
thankful enough to you for this great
Remedy, and resommend it to all suf
sering veterans. If iu doubt write me.

SOME OF THE FINE POINTS OF
DRESS.
Plisscs of the dress goods or other more
ornamental material are arranged to stand out
over the tops of sleeves in epaulette fashion.
Breakfast and matinee jackets cannot be too
lavishly ornamented with laces and ribbons.
Their fabrics are simple Summer silks, China
silks, printed or plain, pongees, dainty wash
fabrics, mull, dimity, cotton, crepes or organ
dies.
Matinees hanging full and free from the
neck and shoulders are stylishly made of
accordion-plaited goods, with unplatted goods
for sleeves and many ribbons and laces about
the tops.
The linen collars shown in the shops for
women’s wear include many eccentric shapes,
but a certain conservatism in such matters is
wise.
Stocks are still worn, but neck-ties of bias
silk, neatly hemmed, folded and tied, are most
admired.
Little rosettes of ribbon or of bias silk are
set close together down the left side-fronts of
waists that close there. They are as easily
removed and replaced for the laundry as are
ribbons from night-gowns and corset-covers.
So few waists close squarely in front this
season that anything pretty and convenient
concealing the fastening is duly valued.
Illusion in plissd or full box-plaitings if
largely used in place of chiffon for throat and
other waist ornamentation.

THE APPIAN WAY
The Koad to Mobley’s Thronged With
Kodern Remans Yesterday.
CARSIY4L DAY WAS A GREAT SUCCESS
Crowd Estimated at 2.OOO—Electric Car Li e
Did a Thriving Buo'.neeo All
tbe Afternoon.
The road to M obley Springs was the
Appian way of modern Rome yesterday.
It was thronged for several hours with
the landed gentry—lords and ladies -in
stylish vehicles drawn by blooded horses;
citizens and officials in public life on
electric cars; meu, youth aud girls on the
wheel of wheels.
For a brilliant success to the music of a
brass band few entertaiuments have
excelled the water carnival.
Fully two thousand people attended.
It wm a beautiful scene at the park.
The grounds were literally thronged
with gaily appareled ladies and child
ren. It looked like some great fete
day with the happy, merry crowd
moving hither and thither.
And there was just lots of fun, too.
The tub race was ridiculously funny.
The youngsters would not more than
get settled in before they would tum
ble out again. The tubs were as
treacherous as the historical greased
pig, but the sport created great mer
riment.it Thqn the greased pole was
another laugh producer for tne
crowd.
Fred Burnett won the foot race.
Lovelace Byrd and Mr. Gunby did

mersaults.
Nobody won the prize for walking
the greasy pole, but it created a great
deal of amusement.
Charles Gilliam won the swimming
match with ease. The boys all weut in
bathing, but no ladies ventured in the
water.
It was a great day for the electric car
line, and Superintendent Mar 'in was all
smiles last night. The bicycle races
helped to swe'l the crowds very material
ly. From three o'clock yesterday aiter
noon to near 8 last night the cars were
packed as long as one could stick on.
The day was such a great success that
every Thursday will be made “Carnival
Day” until the cool weather sets in.

WHEAT A BOOMING.
It Has Gone Up 814 Cents in Tbrcfi
Days and Still Climbing.
ADYNACE OF THREE CENTS YESTERDAY
Predicted That It Will Go to One Dollar.
Elour, Too, Scales Upwards
by Bounds.
Wheat is climbing, climbing, climb
ing.
It went up 2 cents Tuesday, 3J cents
Wednesday and 3 cents yesterday,
making a total advance of 8} cents
for the three days.
And there is no telling where it will
end, as it is predicted that it will yet
go to sl.
Wheat was quoted yesterday at 84|
cents, an advance of 9 cents since the
third of the month,
A letter to a local commission dealer
from one of the biggest mills in the
south yestereay stated that they would
not be surprised to see the cereal go
to one dollar in a short time. The
demand from abroad is unprecedented
for Americon wheat, and the exports
are enormous. The foreign markets
drawing so heavily on the crop here
is the main reason for the steady ad
vance in prices.
Os course the boom in wheat has
sent flour up by bounds and jumps,
and no man today knows what he will
pay for his bread stuff tomorrow.
Good flour was worth about $5 per
barrel yesterday. It may be worth
more today.
A prominent commission man said
yesterday:
“The big advance in wheat is due
to enormous foreign demands. It is
impossible to tell where it will stop.
The farmers can force the price to one
dollar if they wish, aad I believe it
will be done. ”
Sugar is not advancing any now,
and the general opinion is that the
price will not go much if any higher.
It is only about two months until
another crop will be ready.
ONE OF JWO WAYS.
The bladder was created for one pur
pose, namely, a receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form
of disease except by one of two ways.
The first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way is
from careless local treatment of other
diseases,
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder troubles.
So the womb, like the bladder, was creat
ed for one purpose, and if not doctored too
much is not liable to weakness or disease,
except in rare cases. It is situated back
of and very close to the bladder,
therefore any pain, disease or incon
venience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage is
often, by mistake, attributed to female
weakness or womb trouble of some
sort. The error is easily made and
may be as easily avoided. To find out
correctly, set your urine aside for
twenty-four hours; a sediment or set
tling indicates kidney or bladder trou
ble. The mild aud the extraordinary
effect of Dr Kilmer’s Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, and bladder remedy
is soon realized. If you need a medi
cine you should have the best. At
druggists fifty cents and one dollar.
You may have a gamble bottle and
pamphlet, both sent free by mail.
