MR CARVER RETURNS.
Comes Back From New York .and Has Some
Rare Bargains to Offer.
Mr. J. B- Carver, of the Rome China
Store, has just returned from New
York where he bought the most mag
nifleient stock of china, cut glass,
lamps and general housefurnlshing
goods ever.brought south. Possessing
exquisite taste and having many years
experience in this line, he is certainly
an expert in the ceramic art yvith but
few equals in this country. His selec
tions this season far surpasses any
thing of previous years. A large per
cent of Mr. Carver's purchases this
season are imported samples—they
are the latest, finest and most expen
sive things in china produced by tbe
leading potteries of Europe, China
and Japan. This lot of samples is a
most wonderful collection and com
prises nearly everything that can pos
sibly be thought of in china and pot
tery; the newest designs, the oddest
shapes and the most dainty decora
tions of the ceramic artists of the
world, Remember that thia truly
wonderful collection of novelties are
not regular goods carried in stock but
are manufacturers samples that/ are
always sold at the end of the import
ing season in job lots at abont one
half their value, and are generally
ssooped by such firms as Wannk
maker, L. H. Macey & Co. or tbe Fair
at Chicago. This year Mr. Carver
was at the scooping and bought tbe
Whole Klondike for Rome at less than
half price of what the goods cost to
import. Mr. Carver intends to make
the Rome China Store the most at
tractive establishment of its kind in
the south, and he believes that fine
cutlery, fine goods and low prices
will satisfy his customers.
NO CHANGE NOW,
Whßt Mr. Joseph J. Hamilton Says About
the Postoßice Matter.
Postmaster John M. Vandiver will
hold his place for some time to come.
Even Mr. Jo-eph J. Hamilton, who Las
been in Washington trying to get the
place, admits this to be the case.
It is understood that should Mr. 'Ham
ilton ever get the appointment he will
have Capt. T. J. Helm, a well known
and life long republican, as his assist -
ant. Ebling and his negro assistant,
Parker, are still in Washington.
Postmaster Vandiver’s many friends
feel satisfied that he will hold the
office until his term expires.
There are four applicants for the
place: J. J. Hamilton, W. H. Ebling,
A* D. Hull and A. C. Morrison. There
were some others, but all withdrew
except tbe four mentioned.
CAPT. CLARK RETURNS.
H» Has Boen In New York and to Virginia
Resorts.
Capt. R. G. Clark and family return
ed yesterday from a visit to New York
and the .Virginia resorts. He left here
about September 1 for New York where
he spent sometime, and then came home
via Sweet Springs, Va., to accompany
his wife and family to Rome.
Captain Clark reports a pleasant visit,
and says everything in New York is
looking up. Money U easier and every
thing indicates better times. He thinks
the cotton crop will be harvested earlier
this fall and that it may not be as large
as the largest estimates. However as
he only came in yesterday afternoon and
was so busy he had not had time to in
vestigate the matter.
“I am always glad' to get back to
Rome,” said he. ‘‘lt is the most de
lightful spot in the World to me. lam
sorry to hear of the yellow fever in the
south, and sincerely hope that we will
have an early frost to kill it out.’’
