Joshua Simpkins.
The rural comedy drama “Joshua
Simpkins’’ held the boards at Nevin’s
opera house last evening. It is above
the average of its kind, and the series of
sensational features interspersed with
first class specialties makes an evening
pass pleasantly. The orchestra and band
are very good indeed. The house was
top heavy, though the down stairs was
comfortably filled.
A Cold Wave Coming.
The Tribune received the following
cold wave bulletin from Atlanta yester
day: “Probably freezing temperature
Tuesday for Georgia. Decidedly cold
er tonight. Cold wave tn northern
and central portions of Alabama.
The temperature will fail nearly to
freezing on the coast. Frost Tues
day.’’ It was one of the bitterest
nights this section has experienced
on last evening.
Shorter College Gossip.
Several years ago three noble heart
ed women of Rome extended helping
hands to the city by animating young
men and maidens, old men and child
ren to give an entertainment; the
never-to-be-forgotten District School,
for the benefit of the two libraries,
the Shorter College Library and the
Young Men’s Library. These three
ladies were Mesdames Rowell, John
son and Printup. Since that time
they have been known st Shorter as
the ‘ ‘Select Ladies,” and held by
Shorter in loving remembrance.
One Case of Smallpox.
Wyley Walker, who recently came here
from Atlanta and who was visiting os
Smith street, has a case of smtllpox, and it
has been so pronounced by Drs. Harris and
Hoyt. Sundav Walker was removed to
the pest house, prepared some time ago
for an emeigency. The’house he had
occupied has been thoroughly fumigated,
and the twenty-three people who were
there with him, are under strict guard.
Should any more cases develop they will
be removed to the pest house at once,
thus guarding against any spread of the
disease.
Church Was Packed.
The First Baptist church was
packed Sunday, and the excellent
sermon of Dr. Headden heard with
close attention. It is rare that every
cine of the comfortable opera chairs
except a few in front are taken on a
day of such gloomy and threatening
weather. Owing to the absence of
the First Methodist and First Presby
terian no services were held at those
churches. William McWilliams sang
a solo “At the Foot of the Cross” in a
pleasing style and was highly com
plimented.
MR. GAMMON EXPLAINS.
«
What He Says About the Local Article in
« Sunday’s Tribune.
Mr. ’J. A. .Gammon thinks a local
article in Sunday’s Tribune conveyed
a wrong impression about his busi
ness, and writes as follows:
To The Editor of The Tribune: The
local article in Sunday’s Tribune enti
tled “Going out of Business” conveys a
wrpng impression. Most distinctly we are
not going out of business. This sale is
merely to get rid of winter stock and
prepare the way for a larger and bet
ter spring business. Reference to our
advertisement will show that we make
no such statement about retiring.

Publication That Gives That Village Some
Undue Notoriety.
Editor Tribune:—An item published
in one of your contemporaries of Nov.
25 does the village of Lindale a great in
justice, and in reply will say that the
deputy sheriffs were ordered out here by
Dr. Fenner, of Bcczville. There was a
great amount of cursing and using in
decent language in the presence of ladies
in the town of Boozville, and will say
further that some of the residents of
Lindale went out there and gave them a
helping hand, but none of the trouble
took place in o«r quiet village on Thurs
day, Nov. 25 Will also say that we
have two good bailiffs that are courageous
enough to keep down any trouble that
may arise, and if we should need any
help ’Squire Powers or myself will tele
graph Rome to send out the Rome Light
Guards,
Please publish this as Lindale has
already as much as she can weli carry,
and all we ask is to “give the devil bis 1
due.”

THE ROME TRIBUN TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30. 18H7
MARK BANNA IS GONE
Hon, Larry Neal, Distinguished Ohio
Democrat, Visl's Rome,
BE RAN AGAINST GOY- NUNLEY
Was Only Beaten By Few Votes - If Fora
ker and Bushnell Stand Together
Hanna Will Be Beaten.
Hon. Larry T. Neal and Mr. John
Tomlinson two prominent citizens of
Chilliootte, Ohio, were in the city yes
terday.
Mr. Neal is a politician of national
prominences, and a lawyer of more than
local reputation. He was chairman of
the democratic delegation from Ohio to
the National Convention in Chicago,
which nominated Cleveland for presi
dent in 1892, and a member of the plat
form committee. He was quite a promi
nent figure in that convention.
In 1893 Mr. Neal was the democratic
candidate for governor of Ohio, and had
William McKinley for an opponent. Mc«
Kinley was elected by about 20,000 ma
jority m a vote of more than 1,000,000,
and to his success in this election may be
attributed in a large measure his nomina
tion by the republicans for president in
1898.
Mr. Neal visited the court house
yesterday, and as Judge Henry was
holding motion court, he met quite a
large number of the Rome bar.
Judge Henry surpended court for a
while, and an informal reception
was held.
Mr. Neal.thinks that if Foraker and
Bushnell stand together, and have
sufficient nerve, that Hanna will be
defeated for from Ohio, but
that is a matter that is now “in nu
bibus.” He thinks that the demo
cratic party in Ohio is in very good
shape and will carry the next election.
Mr. Tomlinson who accompanied Mr.
Neal is cashier of a bank in Chillicothe
and a prominent financier.
Both gentlemen spoke in glowing
terms of Rome, and marked the many
evidences of prosperity in our city,
and the beautiful and picturesque
scenery surrounding.
Mr. Neal is a cousin of Capt. C.
Rowell. Both he and Mr. Tomilson
left at noon for Alabama, where they
go on business.
