Rome’s leading ladies and is being
patronized by the best class of the

Great Numbers of the Yellow Fever Ref
ugees Returning—Quite a Party
Still in Rome, However.
About fifty Selma people left Rome
yesterday for their home iq the Alabama
city.
A special coach brought a large party
of refugees from Cleveland, Knoxville
and other Tennessee points. Here the
special coach was attached to the mixed
train over the Alabama division of the
Southern. Though the coach was al
ready jammed about 50 from this city
managed to crowd into the car.
The trains are not yet permitted to go
into Selma but stop at Birmingham
Junction. There the coach will be trans
ferred and carried into Selma by a
special engine. Among those who left
Rome were Mr. Ed. Neil and family,
Judge Brislin and family and many
others.
While many feel that all danger has
passed that it is safe to return now,
quite a number will remain until Selma
has one or more killing frosts. They do
not feel any special apprehension, but wish
for the remotest danger to be past before
going back.
Rome has been delighted to have these
people here. They were very nearly all
cultured refined citizens of the enter
prising Alabama city.
Others may return today.

and Souvenir edition of The Tribune.
The following are printed in addition
to those that appeared in yesterday’s
Tribune.
Judge W. M. Henry—“lt was a very
complete and a very handsome paper in

out the Trade and Souvenir edition of
The Tribune.”
W. W. Brooks—“lt was a splendid
paper.”
J. B. Carver—“ The paper was one of
the finest ever issued in the south. No

trade edition of a newspaper I have ever
seen. It reflects great credit on Rome.”
F. G. Govan—“l thought was some
some big New York paper. Not only
was it a beautiful paper typographically,
but in news features it was superb.”

VON GAMMON’S DEATH.
I
A Correspondent Says There Should Be
a Legal Investigation.
Editor Tribune:—Word comes from
Athens that only four of the Virginia
team were students of that University
and from rumors of the style of playing
of the Virginia team it is believed that
there was a deliberate purpose on the
part of that team to knock out their op
ponents and thus oripple them.
The brutality of their play was. from
all accounts, a disgrace to their colors,
to the university and to their state. As
a result of this brutality Gammon lost
his life.
It would seem reasonable that there
should be a legal investigation. If Gam
mon lost his life as the result of an un
fortunate accident it would be accepted
with sorrow and resignation.
If, on the contrary, he was sacrificed
to predetermined brutality, we demand
the punishment of the guilty parties.
A full investigation would do no harm
and would do much good. H.
SENT BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS.
University of Virginia Team Have Been
Thoughtful Over Gammon’s Death.
One of the most beautiful floral de
signs at the funeral of Von Gammon
came from the University qf Virginia
football team. The flowers were sent
to Rome with the body.
The team also sent a long and feeling
telegram of condolence to the bereaved
family.
The pall bearers were all club mates
of the dead boy, members of the S. A. E
fraternity.
Vonalbade Gammon was born Deoem
cer 4th, 1879, and lacked just a little
over one month of being 18 years of
age. ' •

Abituary.
On the morning of the 25th the death
angel visited the home of Mr, and Mrs.
Evans Eliott and bore away the sweet
spirit of their ten months old infant boy
which was born Dec. 25th and died
Oct. 25th. They have been married only
two years. God gave them a sweet lit
tle boy. Parents weep not for it, but
say God’s will be done. “Tne Lord
Giveth the Lord Taketh Away.” Though
there is a vacant place that can never be
filled you can never again behold it in
this life only as you see it in your sweet
est dreams where there is no more ach
ing heart-; no more farewells, but all is
joy and peace up there. The family cir.
cle and friends followed it to its last
resting place. It was laid to rest at Sil
ver Creek cemetery, there to await the
morning of the resurrection. When the
grave shall give up the dead. May God’s
richest blessings rest upon the- bereaved
family. A Friend.
