THE LEVEE.
Mr. Nevin Makes a Suggestion.
Part Or Whole
LET US DO SOMETHING.
What Are We Going to Do
About the Much Needed
Levee and When?
How about the levee ?
It is said that we are eeventeeu inches
behind on rainfall this year. If natuie
evens up this winter we will be likely to
have a flood. No one can tell what she
will do, but a flood is at least one of the
possibilities, it is a good idea to discuss
the levee and if possible decide on a plan
and put it through.
There are s> me property owners who
really, mean business and Mr. Nevin is
one of them. When he was asked if he
did not think the question would be set
tled by making a levee of Broad street
and First avenue, be said :
“That might do for a makeshift. It
would be imitating the ostrich, who
hides his head and leaves the rest of his
head exposed. A levee on Broad street
would leave the rear of the stores and
their foundations exposed. I would be
very easy to levee all above Third ave
nue by building up from the ice works
to Third avenue, along that street to
East First street and up to the First
Baptist church. That would protect all
the proper.y above, and the cost would
be divided between about fifty property
owners. It would be less than S3OO
apitce. For my part I would cheerfully
pay SI,OOO of the expense. I would like
to see the whole town levied, but if they
wont do it, I would be glad to go in with
the property owners and protect this
much. If we could build a levee this
year and get the government to build the
new pos»'£3ca, Rime would be a busy
place. The new rolling mill is to be sold
soon, and it is to be hoped that it will
fall into the hands of men who will run
it. With a levee and a government build
ing, we would be on another boom.”
PIEDMONT, ELECT ION•
Municipal Officers Chosen—The Town is
Growing.
Piedm.nt, Ala., Dec. 19.—Piedmont
elected the following municipal cflljers
yesterday;
Mayor W. J. Brock.
Councilmen, J. J. Eubanks, E. W.
Ledoetter, R. F. Hughes, Lon Ferguson,
John Craig and John P. Wolf.
They are all good citizens, thoroughly
identified with the interests of the city.
The election was held under the n w
Sayre election law, and would have
worked satisfactorily but for some defect
in the registration list furnished the man
agers, which did not contain the names
of many who had registered. These
parties were all denied the privilege of
voting on account of their names not
being on the certified lists in the hands
of the .i anagers. This mistake is unac
countable.
Piedmont is moving on nicely. The
shoe factory is being overhauled and will
resume operations soon.
The seminary has a large roll of pupils
and new ones are coming in every day.
The cotton mill is prospering and run
ning on full time.
There are no vacant houses in Pied
mont.

DISFIGURED FOR LIFE
Cuticura Removed Crusts at Once.
Disease Entirely Gone in One Month.
Now No Trace. Skin Smooth.
For more than fifteen years I was effected
With running Tetter on uiy face and scalp.
Various prescriptions and many remedies were
furnished, being afterwards treated by many
phvsicians, and all to no avail. I had lost all
nope of ever being cured, and concluded that I
■was disfigured for life. A friend persuaded me
to give the Cuticura Remedies a trial, which I
did in this way: Taking the Cuticura Resol
vent two teaspoonfuls after each meal, bathed
the effected parts in warm water with Cuticura
Soap, and applied the Cuticura freely until the
crusts were all removed. In one month my face
and scalp were perfectly smooth. 1 give this
cheerful testimony for the benefit of all who are
thus afflicted. T. J. CABANISS, D. D.,

DIED MONDAY.
W
Capt. James Carey a Prominent Roman,
Breathes His Last.
Capt. James Carey died Monday
morning at his home on East First street.
For a long time he had been afflicted
with a heart trouble, and also with.au
often recuning attack of eczema. A
week ago he caught a severe cold, and
all these wera too much for his declining
years. He was 73 years of age, and up
to a short time before bis death presented
a flue physical appearance.
Capt. Carey moved to Rome some twen
ty years ago, He was originally from
Hartford, Conn. He was a railroad con
ductor, and one of the best pieces of
work in this section of any importance
was the constructing of the Selma, Rome
& Dalton railway, now a part of the E.
T. V. & G system. He was an energetic
and faithful worker, and a man whose
friends were more than glad to show
their friendship. A true man himself,
he made true friends and many a heart
is sad today because of his death.

Hudgins and Dr. Hoadden bM!ig..a_Bsisied

IN MEMORIAM.
A Friend Writes of Thomas J. Craton,
Deceased.
Died, at his residence at Brioeville,
F oyd county, Ga., on the 27ch of Novem
ber, 1893, Mr. Thomas J. Craton, at the
age of 43 years. The deceased was reared
in Collard Valley, Polk county, but on
attaining bis majority moved to the ad
joining county, where he spent the le
mainder of his life. Mr. Craton was a
man of great discrimination and energy.
Work to him was honorable and nothing
was too hard that needed to be done
He was very successful in h’s business,
leaving behind a fortune estimated at
$75,000 to SIOO,OOO.
With his means he was liberal, as the
needy poor around bim will testify.
Many a barefooted child was enabled to
go to Sunday-school by his kindness. All
the children loved him. Mr. Craton was
a devoted husband and father, aiming to
increase the comfort and happiness of
wife and children in all w ya possible.
He was twice married. His first wife
was a Miss Howell, who bore him five
children. His second wife was Miss
Rosa Peek, who in youth still survives
him. He bad realized for a long while
that he wou’d die, and frequently spoke
of it. All his arrangements for the other
world wore made, and he confidently
looked f rward to a better world when
he should pass from this.
Religion was his support as he looked
forward to another state of being. His
conversations on the subject were de
lightful to his friends.
His death resulted from a hurt received
a year ago, caused by trying to throw a
belt with a heavy scantling. A month
ago, while in Rome, he was taken with
nervous convulsions, caused by this
trouble, and from this attack he never
rallied. His death was calm and peace
ful. He was buried in the cemetery at
Pleasant Hope church, Floyd county,
with Masonic honors. His membership
was with tbechurch just named. His
brethren, as indeed ad the community,
will greatly miss him. A Friend/
MR. ADKINS' INVENTION.
An Electrical Recorder Which is Simpler,
Better and Cheaper Than Existing Ones.
Mr. W. H. Adkins has avented >n
electrical recorder for registering auto
matically signals, such as fire alarms,
police signals, district messenger calls
or any similar signals. The present mode
of receiving is on a slip of paper. The
new machine is simpler, markirg its sig
nals ou a revolving slate in dots and
dashes, somewhat similar to the Morse
alphabet.
It keeps a record of the alarms for
filing away for future reference. It is so
simple in mechanism that it does not
cost one-tenth as much as the machines
now in use. Mr. Adkins his filed a
caveat for a patent ind has already bad
overtures from electric 1 companies for
his m chine. A thoron: b scinch in the
patent < fli io shows no machine like it,
mid Mr. Adkins has evidently got a good
icing.
