Tbe golden glowing * season of In
dian summer lends inspiration to the
lovers of nature, and girls. Some peo
ple are periodical lovers —wait for the
blossoms of May, or the first ripe
fruits of June, to patit the ardent
from a shallow cup. It ie so much
nicer to be one of those all season
lovers, ready at any time to lit any
one into your life, to make it more
pleasant, and never getting so hope
lessly bedewed with loving sputter,
that the scorn of one, will give you a
distaste for the society of all pothers.
Let your heart “lightly turn to
thoughts of love” even if the poet
things you are out of season, for,
like death, “Thou hast all seasons for
thine own,” O love. It is granted
that tbe melancholy days and the
“meadows brown aud sear” do not
seem in strict accord with a heart
that is bubbling and simmering with
love, yet from the time whereof the
memory of man runneth not to the
contrary,” such hearts have found
gullible girls to pause and linger up
on the honey of their tongues. Were
we to eaves drop and hear his eu
phonious wrangle, I don’t doubt but
that tbe musical extortions of a
Chinese tin-pan orchestra, or the
soothing warbling of Dr. Battey’s fox
hounds, would be highly preferable.
However the youth of this country
cuts bis own swath, and rarely de
pends on the beaten path his father
trod to guide him, so our old and
hardened hearts needn’t be surprised
or shocked at any fanciful
ricocheting we see the dashing youths
and beauties cut in the future, even
in Indian summer.

***
Yellow Jack, saffron scourage,
death-dealing plague horrors, how
we trimble when we hear such terible
names applied to a few people suffer
ing from sun stroke on the K gulf coast.
Thirty new cases and only one death,
what is that prithee to be weeping
and tearing our garments about.
We can beat that way yonder with
typhoid fever, and we don’t think of
receiving sympathy, or yards of pre s
notices. Take thirty cases of typhoid
and compare tbe mortality, yellow
fever will dwindle to a starveling in
comparison, and if the comparison
were to be made it would open the
eyes of many as to “dread typhoid.”
The typhoid germs in almost
every case are traceable to impure
water, and one foul pooj will germi
nate enough of the death, dealing
bacilli to send to Hacksaw a city the
size of Rome, or Chicago. We now
see the importance and comfort of
living in thisjenlightened age. Where
our fore-fathers used to gulp down
gallons of liquids alive with creeping
and crawling animal life,
and were none the wiser, we
are forced to choke down the same
menagerie, knowing better but -un
able to eject the Zoo. Os course a
person twitches nervously when told
that yellow fever so parches the skin
that a decent and timely funeral is
impossible, yet we have troubles of
our own, sickness of our own, and
heart aches of our own, when loved
ones are borne from earthly breasts
to the bosom of the one who gave
them to us for a short season. A
NOT ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD.
A fact often overlooked, or not al
ways understood, is that women suffer
as much from distressing kidney and
bladder troubles as the men. The womb
is situated back of and very close to the
bladder, and for that reason any dis
cress. disease or inconvenience mani
fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or
urinary passage is often, by mistake, at
tributed to female weakness or womb
trouble of some sort.
The error is easily made and may be
as easily avoided by setting urine aside
for twenty-four hours; a sediment or
settling is evidence that your kidneys
and bladder need doctoring. If you have
pain or dull aching in the back, pass
water too frequently, or scanty supply,
with smarting or burning,—these are
also convincing proofs of kidney trouble.
If you have doctored without benefit,
try Dr. Kilmer’s Swsmp-Root, the
great kidney remedy. The,mild and the
extraordinary effect will surprise you.
It stabdrt the highest for its wonderful
cures. If you take a medicine you
should take tbe best. At druggists fifty
cents and one dollar. You may have a
sample bottle and pamplet, both sent
free by mail. Mention Rome Tribune
and send your address to Dr. Kilmer

prietors of this paper guarantee the
genuineness of this offer.
THE HOME TRIBUNE. SUNDAY OCTOBER 10. 1891
touching incident, is connected with
the death of a young' business man
recently. Just two weeks pryor to
his death and while the griping talons
of typhoid were closing around this
trembling form, one of his brothers
was taken sick and died. Thousands
of cares were racking tbe brain of tbe
sufferer, and it was deemed best not
to tell him of bis brother’s death until
be had improved. But like Byron he
had reached and Accomplished the
highest point of hie greatness, and
from the full meridian of success and
glory, he was hastening, rapidly to
bis setting. In time he died. The
tired body released the winged spirit
and angels accompanied it to heaven.
The picture is the meeting of the two
brothers in heaven, their surprise,
their freedom "from tears, and many
sweet thoughts can be gotton from
this. This little instance is just anoth
er evidence of the presence in God’s,
flower garden of the evil agent ty
phoid, blowing his foul breath on
some of the fairest flowers, some to
wither and rally to last out "‘the few
days” that are “full of trouble” and
others to blast forever—forever.
CONTINUED DROUTH.
Little Prospec-8 of Relief From the Dry
vi either. It Has Bee Unprecedent,
The unprecedented drouth continues
here and throughout the ■ entire cotton
belt. Rome has not had a drop of rain
in sixty days, and the outlook is not
glowing for the pattering drops.
The weather bulletin for the 24 hours
ending yesterday morning at 8 o’clock
indicates cloudy conditions at eight of
the twelve points covered by the central
station in Atlanta but not a drop of wa
ter anywhere.
The last monthly summaries from the
fourteen different stations reporting to
Atlanta show that only two had the nor
mal amount of rain that Uncle Sam’s
weather men have decided should fall
every month during the year. Those
stations were Jacksonville, Fla., which
city is 7.80 inches ahead on its monthly
share, and Savannah, where 53 hundre hi
of inch more than the normal are re
corded.
The other twelve stations with their
deficiencies are the following: Mor.t
gomery, 1.89 inches behind ; Mobile, 3,(3
inches; Memphis, 3 inches; Chicago, 2
inches; Knoxville. 78 inches; Nashville.
3.68 inches; Charlotte, 2.47 inches; Char
leston, 3.98 inches; Chattanooga, 3.78
inches; Augusta .27 inches.

To tbe captain and members of
Rainbow Steam Fire Company No. 1
of Rome, Ga. Your committee to
whom was referred the duty of draft

er fireman, John T. Drennon, deceas
ed, beg leave to make the following
report:
Brother Drennon was born in De-
Kalb county, Ga.. July 12th, 1852. He
moved from there to Rome in 1870-
When he was about 39 years of age
he became a mem' :r of our company
and since that day until the time of
his sickness, he proved himself a brave
and true fireman.
On the 25th of July 1897 he laid aside
the uniform he had so proudly worn, aud
answered the call from the great chief to
come.up higher; therefore be it
Resolved (1) That in the death of
Brother Drennon, Rain Bow Steam Fire
Engine Cortpany has sustained a great
loss, the community a good friend, the
children a kind father, and the wife a
true husband.
2. That we keep in our memory the
virtues of our departed brother.
3. That a copy of these resolutions be
sent to his wife and children,and a sepa
rate page be set apart in our minute
book and the resolutions be spread on
the same and that they be published in
The Rome Daily Tribune, and the Rome
Georgian.

A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to be in a most miserable condition. It
was undoubtedly a bad case of la grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain’s Gough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therin,
we concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satisfac
tory in its results, is patting it very
mildly, indeed. It acted .like magic
and the result was a speedy and perma
nent cure. We have no hesitancy in
recommending this excellent Cough
Remedy to anyone afflicted with a cough
or cold in any form.—The Banner of

A BICYCLE WEDDING, .
pl
Daisy, Daley, give me your auewer true,
I’m half crazy, all for the love of you;
It won’t be a stylish marriage,
I can't afford a carriage,
But you 1. look sweet, upon tbe seat
®f a bicycle built for two.
Rome is all agog over the secret bi
. cycle wedding.
All the participants including the
minister who tied the knot rode on
bicycles.
The wedding occurred last Tuesday
afternoon on the Bluff road under a
. spreading oak tree.
For romanticism it is a wedding
that will rank along with that of Gov.
Atkinson’s son some weeks ago in
, Floyd county. »
I The contracting parties of this
“Daisy Belle” wedding were Mr.
[ George Wright, aged 20, and Miss.
Leila Hill, aged 15.
The bride is wearing short dresses,
and was in the sixth grade of the pub
' lie schools last year. This fall she has
1 been attending Shorter college. Every
’ morning for the last few weeks a Tri
bune man has met Miss Hill that was,
> and Mr. Wright that ie, going to the
t college. Often he was pushing her bi
cycle up the hill, and sometimes he
j was in charge of both bicycles, They
seemed so wrapt up in each other as
to be oblivious of everybody who
i passed them.
While they were engaged yet it
> seems that the bride’s parents pre
i ferred for her to finish school before
: entering upon tbe matrimonial sea.
t But when cqpid wills he generally
i finds away. Mr. Wright had to go
I away soon for a three month’s trip,
s and they decided that the separation
, for so long a time without being join-
> ed in the bonds of wedlock was more
’ than they could stand.
So Dr, Frank Wynn, ex-bicycle ed
itor of the Tribune, was taken into
( their confidence, He went to see
Rev. A. A. Tilly, pastor of the How
ard avenue Methodist church. The
reverend gentleman at first demurred,
but after repeated persuasion yielded
when he learned that the couple was
engaged, and told that parental ob
[ jection would not be very great and
r only because of age.
The bride and groom rode out
through South Rome and down the
, Bluff road. Dr. Wynn and the min
ister met them, and the ceremony was
sacredly and quietly performed under
a large oak tree,
It was the intention to lieep the af
fair a secret for two months, but yes
terday afternoon it leaked out through
a letter.
Mr. and Mrs. Hiram D. Hill, the
parents of the bride, were considera
bly worried, but concluded that al
though their daughter had acted
against their wishes to make the best
of it and forgive her.
Mr. Wright is a popular young
man, formerly- connected with 'the
Southern railway ticket office He is
the son of Mr. William Wright, the
well known expert accountant for
many years with Berry & Co. and
Hamilton & Co. He now lives in Me
ridian, Miss. Young Mr. Wright will
come into the inheritance of a fine es
tate when he attains his manhood.
The youthfulness of the parties ap
pears to be the only objection to the
wedding.
Mr. and Mrs. Wright whll leave in a
few days for Mississippi and Missouri
via the Nashville Centennial.
