AWORDWITH YOU!
If vou have money or credit use it
t j buy some of the goods we offer
for less than their worth in the
largest market in the world today.
Cross & Blackwell’s, mixed
pickles, quart bottles for 25 cents.
Regular price 40 to 50 cents. Large
olives, never sold for less than 3 ?
cents at 25 cents the bottle. We
have only a small lot of the above
goods that will bf sold at above
prices and if you know anything
about their value you will know
that they are bargains. Under the
head of bargains will come our
brooms, the price of which has been
cut on them all except the ten cent
size. Then comes toilet soap on
which we have cut the price 20 per
cent on all grades that sells at 5J
cents the box and less; which makes
the price of that at ten cents the
box 8 cents and 25 cents soap for 20
cents, 50 cents soap for 40 cents the
box, <fcc.
PRESERVES.
In this line we have the best
goods that can be made of sugar
and fruit. They are pure and noth
ing can be said in their praise that
the goods do not merit. McMechin’s
preserved figs at 25 cents the jar,
preserves all kinds, ten cents the
can. Jelly 23 cents the bucket.
Roqueford cheese 15 cents the jar,
sold everywhere at 25 cents.
TETLEY’S TEAS.
There isn’t any other “just like
it.” It atands alone in the dignity
of purity, excellence of flavor and
reputation. Never t< uched but once
with the hand and that in picking.
Machinery does the balance. Think
of the Chinese hands, never too
clean, Compare Chinese Teas in
flavor and strength with Tetley’s
and you will never have any but
Tetley’s.
COFFEE
If you want it at ten cents the
pound we have it. If you want the
finest product of the earth we have
that. If you buy coffee from us it
shall be better value for the money
than you can .get elsewhere or you
get your money back. Our Q. & Q.
coffee roasted and put up in three
pound cans is the best that money
can buy. Try one can of it for sl,
and if yon are any judge of coffee
and you do not say it is the best
that ever come to Rome then you
shall hxve your dollar and the coffee
too.
FLOUR
Hand’s Best does make more
bread, cleaner bread, and whiter
bread, than any flour on this market.
Other merchants could buy as good
flour if they knew where to get it
and would buy a high price ! flour
and sell it at a price to compete
with us. Buy the best you can find
at other stores, take a sack of
Hand’s Best, test them side by side
and if you get any good as our
brand, then we will give you a bar

AT HOME AND CHURCH
Tvo Weddings Which Were Celebrated
in One Octobir Day.
BERRY-EWING NUPTIALS AT NOON
Ledbetter-Arrington Nuptials at First
Baptist Church at 4:30 O’clock. Par
ties Left on Afternoon Train.
Two beautiful October weddings were
celebrated in Rome yesterday. One was
a home and the other a church affair.
At the suburban home of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles E. Berry were celebrated the
nuptials of Miss Sarah Leila Berry and
Mr. Albert Gallatin Ewing. It was
a stylish and elegant wedding in every
respect.
The house was darkened and brightly
illuminated with wax candles the softened
rays of whose light, after stepping from
the dazzling sunshine was restful to the
eye.
The interior decorations were elaborate
and very artistic in their arrangement.
The main hall and the stairway were dec
orated with holly, fern and green vines
of red lipton berries. Tne drawing
room to the left with its old fashioned
fire place reminding one of the elegance
of colonial days was in red with a pro
fusion of holly and stnilax.
The parlor to the right in which the
ceremony was performed was decorated
in white and green with ferns, brides
roses and smilax. The general effect
was exceptionally beautiful.
The bridal procession was headed
by little Anna Teresa Veal and Wing
field Hudgins. Then came alone Miss
Mamie Berry, the maid of honor, in a
picturesque dress of white organdy
and in her hand she carried white
carnations. The groom accompanied
by his brother, Mr. Orville Ewing, of
Nashville, as best man followed. Last
came the bride on the arm of her
brother, Mr. Charles E. Berry.
The beautiful Episcopal ceremony
was impressively performed by Rev.
C. B. Hudgins.
The bride, who is very handsome
and a young woman of high intellec
tual attainments, was gowned in
heavy white satin and real lace.
The bride’s table was a dream of
beauty. Refreshments were served
in three courses. A large bride’s cake
adorned the center of the table.
Many handsome presents were re
ceived and several of them from school
girl friends of the bride in northern
cities.
The couple left at 4 o’clock p. m.,
over the Western & Atlantic railroad
on a two week’s bridal trip.
PRETTY CHURCH WEDDING.
Miss Mamie Lee Ledbetter and Mr. A. B.
Arrington Married.
A large and fashionable audience gath
ered at the First Baptist church yes
terday afternoon at 4:30 o’clock to
witness the nuptial vows of Miss Mamie
Lee Ledbetter and Mr. Albert Beda Ar
rington.
Before the bridal party had touched
the door steps the soft inspiring strains
of “Stephanie’s Gavotte” followed by
“Call Me Thine Own” came from the
organ under the skillful manipulations of
Mrs. W. S. McHenry.
The ushers, Messrs. O. G. and W. T.
Ledbetter and Ned York and ‘Evan’
Harvey, were stylishly attired in dark
suits with cutaway coats and white four
in-hand ties, ox-blood kids completing
the costume.
The bride, who is well known m Rome,
is a beautiful young girl, with peach
blossom complexion, and bonny brown
hair. She was quite becomingly arrayed
in a going away gown of tan trimmed in
a brilliant shade of green. Her hat was
of the same shade with wings and bows
of the verdant hue. Her maid of honor,
Miss Bettie Ledbetter wore a dress of
delicate smoke colored blue with a vest
and trimmings of pink.
The bride and her maid when the mu
sic began to peal forth “Mendelssohns
Wedding March,” entered the church
down the main aisle to be met half way
by the groom and his best man, Mr.
Henry Taylor who had entered on the
right.
The ceremany was performed by Dr.
R. B. Headden in his most impressive
manner.
The young couple after the blessing
from the man of God received many
warm wishes, and congratulations out
side of the door and a last and touching
picture was the young bride in the car
nage kissing her mother good bye and
giving away her bride roses, and maiden
hair ferns.
Mr. and Mrs. Arrington left on the
5:35 train for Atlanta where they will
reside in the future. Mr. Arrington who
is a brother of H. H. Arrington of
the Curry-Arrington Company holds a
responsible position with the Southern
railway.
Later on Mr. and Mrs. Arrington will
take an extended bridal trip.

PALMA ON THE NEW PLAN.
Cuban Delegate Says the Insurgents Will
Never Compromise.
New York, Oct. 27. Tomas Es
trada Palma, the Cuban delegate to the
United States, when asked his opinion
of the Cuban reforms proposed by the
Spanish ministry, said:
**As the representative of the Cuban
provisional government, I am in a posi
tion to state most emphatically that the
Cubans in arms will enter into no com
promise with Spain. Cubans are fight
ing for absolute independence, and they
will entertain no peace proposals from
the Spanish government based on any
thing but absolute independence.
“The Cuban patriots are firmly de
termined to carry on the struggle until
their purpose is accomplished. They
will listen to no proposition acknowl
edging Spain's sovereignty over Cuba.
I am speaking for men who are fully
resolved to give up their lives, if need
be, for their country's freedom. lam
voicing the aspirations of the Cuban
people. Cubans wiU never accept au
tonomy, no matter how ample, as a so
lution of their siruggle for indepen
dence. The Cuban problem must be
settled this time once for all.”
A massmeeting of Cubans will be
held in New York soon to voice opposi
tion to the Spanish proposals and de
clare for independence.
Ricans Want Radical Reforms.
San Juan, Porto Rico, Oct. 'al.— The
Autonomists in Porto Rico have issued
a manifesto, in which they demand of
Spain the same radical reforms as those
promised to Cuba by the new Liberal
ministry. This demand is backed by
popular sentiment, and it is hoped the
reforms will be granted.

John R. Holt, who' was arrested in
Birmingham Tuesday on charges of
forgery, has not geen brought back
to Rome yet.
Deputy Sheriff J. P. Redmond went
to Birmingham Wednesday after
Holt, and was expected back yester

however, and cannot reach here until
today some time. The officers here

yesterday contains the following
about Holt’s arrest:
"Jobnß. Holt, who has for several
weeks been in Baine’s printing office
in Second avenue, is wanted in Rome,
Ga., to answer the charge of forgery.
“This charge was preferred aginst
him by one Fletcher Smith, a printer
and book-binder of Rome.
“Holt has been in Birmingham for
some time. Chief McDonald received
a letter from the authorities in Rome
Monday, giving a description of Holt.
Yesterday morning he was arrested
by Captain Weir and Officer Ellard at
the Baine printing establishment.”
John Holt is well known here and
his friends regret bis unfortunate
predicament. The charges are said
in be based on a transaction which
took place some three years ago.

DEATH OF HRS. FORD
• I
A Noble Christian Lady Who Passed
Away Yesterday Morning.
FUNERAL SERVICES 10 A. H. TODAY
Will Be Conducted From First Methodist
Church By Rev. S. R. Belk—The
Pall Bearers.
The announcement of the death of
Mrs. E. C. Ford in yesterday morning’s
Tribune caused genuine sorrow among all
who knew her.
She met the end with the sweet and
patient resignation thai told of her un
alterable faith and in the goodness of her
Master, (whom she had served humble
through her life.
Mrs. Ford was only 36 years old, and
was the loved companion of Mr. E. C.
Ford, a well-known business man and
musician of this city. She leaves two
children, Miss Gertrude and E. C., jr.
Dr. Belk said of her yesterday: “She
was one of the best women I ever knew,
and her trust and faith in the goodness of
God was beautiful to see. It is not hard
to preach the funeral of such a person.
The simple story of a life so pure and
good, preaches a sermon more eloquent
than words.”
Mrs. Ford had a lung trouble, and
for months J gradually grew weak
er day by day. Never once was
she heard to murmur or complain.
Resigned to the inevitable she waited
for the dawning of the new life. At
12:50 yesterday morning it came, and
she fell asleep as peacefully as a child
wooed to slumber by a mother’s lulla
by. 1
The funeral will take place from the
First Methodist church this morning
at 10 o’clock and Rev. S. R. Belk will
conduct the services.
The following gentlemen will act as
pallbearers: E. T. McGhee, S. Funk
houser, C. A. Trevitt, John W. Jones,
George Heneg and Dr. J. A. Wills.
The remains will be enterred on
Myrtle Hill.
GUBERNATORIAL GOSSIP.
Hon. Joseph Terrell’s Boom Only One
Yet Fully Developed.
The Atlanta correspondent of the
Savannah News gives the following
interesting bit of gossip:
“The gubernatorial booms are all in
an embryotic state, and it will take
some little time to patch them. The
only one that seems to have pecked clean
through the shell is that of Hon. Joseph
Terrell, attorney general, who appears
to be star player in a continuous per
formance in the Kimball house lobby. ”
Society Notes.
Quite a party will meet at Mr. E. H.
West on Second avenue Friday night to
enjoy the Hallowe’en mysteries which are
alway very entertaining. A small gift
offering will be expected. Refreshments
dainty, will be served.
Mrs. Joseph J, Hamilton entertained
the Fortnightly club most delightfully
yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Ethel Hillyer Harris will leave
for Atlanta tomorrow.
