Don’t Want Green Pine.
In The Tribune’s article yesterday
concerning the new coal ovens for the
Rome furnace it was stated that green
pine wood was preferable. This is a
mistake, as no pine wood will be used
at all. Oak, hickory and kindred tim
ber will be used exclusively.

SOMETHING UNUSUAL.
Romans Enjoy Vegetables out ofThelr
Gardens in the Middle of November.
The fall and winter to date has
been one of the mildest this section
has experienced in many years.
With the exception of a few nights
when frost occurred the weather has
been almost like summer.
On last Sunday Mr. A. W. Tedcastle
had English peas for dinner and they
were gathered out of his garden the
day before. As is well known the
English pea is easily killed by the cold
weather,
Sunday Officer Horry Wiippee had
beans for dinner which came fresh
from his garden. They grew in the
open garden and without any protec
tion from chilly nights.
Yesterday morning the weather was
very mild and balmy. Shortly after
noon rain threatened to fall but did
not do so here. There was a decided
atmospheric change, however, and a
cold wind began blowing from the
north about 4 o’clock.
The deficiency in rainfall through
this section is great. Many farmers
are compelled to haul all the water
they use. And this is taking place in
communities where they have never
before been compelled to do so.
The three year old boy of J. A.JJohn
son, of Lynn pen ter, 111., is subject to
attacks of croup. Mr. Johnson says he
is satisfied that the timely use of Cha<u
berlain’s Cough Remedy, during a se
vere attack, saved his little boy’s life.
He is in the drug business, a member of
the firm of Johnson Bros, of that place;
*iud they handle a great many patent
medicines for throat and lung diseases.
He had all these to chose from, and
skilled physicians ready to respond to
his call, but selected this remedy for use
in his own family at a time when his
child's life was in danger, because he
knew it to be superior to any other, and
famous the country over for its cures cf
croup. Mr. Johnson says this is the
best selling cough medicine they handle
and that it gives splendid satisfaction in
all oases. Sold by Curry-Arrington Co.,

COTTON ADVANCES..
The First Two Days of the Week Shows a
Gain of 11 Points.
Cotton has begun a new week favor
ably, and for the first two days shows
again of 11 points.
Monday the market was firm with
a close of five points better than Sat
urday’s close. Yesterday it main
tained the gain of five points and
closed six points better.
This is considered rather favora
ble,as heretofore it has been rare that
the market advanced two days in suc
cession. It usually makes a spasmodic
upward jump one day in the week,
and declined the rest of the week.
Local receipts continue heavy with
prices ranging from 54 to sf.

JACK CLANCEY’S MARRIAGE.
It Was the Sequel of a St. Simon's Island
Romance.
The following from the Brunswick
Advertiser will interest the many friends
of the groom in this city:
The recent marriage of Mr. Jack
Clancey to Mrs. E. A. Sayre, of Mont
gomery, Ala., is a pretty romance of
St. Simon, in which the pleasant ways
of the popular resort manager, blended
with the influences of the star freckled
skies, the love pulsating beach, the
courage giving surf, the happy resc«
nance of seaside promenades, all con
sorted to the affinity of hear-seeking
minds. The coast visiting hordes will
join in congratulating groom and bride
and wishing for them a safe beach in
the hallowed shores of love and happi*
ness. They will spend the winter in
Florida and return to Brunswick next
season.
