When a Man's in Love-
When Is a man in love?
How can he know
If it Is love or something else
That makes him quiver so?
Yes, there Is always one
Unfailing test,
Whereby a man may know that love
Burns in bis breast.
Jtlsnet'ove alone
That sets the cheeks aglow;
It is not always love that makes
The pulses quicken so,
ißut when a man looks on a maid.
And loses all his mind.
And makes a monkey of himself,
And gets as blind
As any bat
To all her faults.
Then he can gamble that
It isn't just his liver
Which has got out of repair.
But that true love has crept into
His breast and settled there.
—Cleveland Leader

One week ago today Dr. A. C. Davis,

Dr. Davis returned to Atlanta Mon

until last Friday when an operation
was performed on him. Dr. Walker
Curry went down to assist in the opera

It was found that had it not been
done so soon death would have resulted
surely. The latest news is that he is
recovering nicely, and will probably be

COTTON COMING LIVELY.
Rome Has Reca.ved About Hundred
Bales To Date. Opening Fast.
Lower Broad street yesterday was busy
enough looking to cause the croakers to
sit still in the boat, it is hoped.
Cotton wagons were crowded pretty
thick during a good portion of the day,
and the sidewalks were lined with peo
ple.
The sfficials figures of receipts for the
week ending Friday night were 840 bales,
and with yesterday’s marketing added,
will run the total to 900 or over. The
entire receipts for the season to date,
1.092. Prices continue comparatively
low, ranging from 6 to 16.
The fanners are disgu«ted with the
steady fall, but are marketii g right along.
The quality of the cotton ranks very
-high.
The hot, dry weather has caused cot
ton to open very rapidly, and the picking
has been somewhat delayed on account
of farmers being busy with fodder and
sorghum crops.
There is a great deal of cotton open in
the fields and heavy rains now would
stain the staple, and injure the crop more
than it would benefit it.
It is expected that the receipts the
iucomii g week will be very heavy.

LABORERS FOR 4LIBIMA MINES.
Mr. P. G. Shook Carried About Flf y to Bir
mingham Yesterday.
The demand for labor in the Alabama
coal and iron mines continues and it
looks as though enough men cannot be
secured.
Mr. P. G. Shook, of Birmingham was
in the city yesterday looking for colored
laborers. He is the son of Col. A. M.
Shook, general managei of the- Tennes
see and Alabama Mining Company,
owners and operators of the biggest
coal and iron beds in those states and one
of the wealthies corporations in the
south.
Mr. Shook secured about fifty colored
men here, and carried them *o Birming
ham with him yesterday. He stated
that he anticipated some trouble from
quarantine regulations in getting the
men through, but secured health tertifi -
cates for them here. The mines, he said,
need all the laborers they can get.
Mr. Shook said that his father Col. A.
M. Shook and other prominent Ala
bamians are making a strong effort to
have the -ar~or plate factory located in
Birmingham. He heartily endorsed The
Tribune’s editorial stating that all the
south should unite iu pulling for Bir
mingham. If they would do so that city
would surely secure it.
