Last Friday afternoon, an interested
crowd watched John White haul a
barrel containing over 200 pounds of
booze and bottles from the T. J. Bry
ant livery stable to the council cham
ber. The booze reached here ad
dressed to A. Allison.
Revenue Officer Spence was in the
city Friday and when the booze reach
ed here he ordered it held at the depot
for a time. It is said that he then
went to Allison at the livery stable
and collected a government license,
after which he gave the depot force
the signal to do with the barrel as it
pleased.
In the meantime the officers got on
to the shipment and followed it to Al
lison’s place of business. The booze
reached there all right; but Allison
could not be found. -
After the barrel of whiskey was kept
at the council room for a time, it was
removed to the vault at the court
house for safe-keeping.
It was a case of something for ev

and excited. Old Tom was my friend,
and I was going to stand to him. Oc
casionally the gambler would call for
treats of whiskey and was very liberal
with his money. After a while the
“luck” began to run all to the gamb
ler. I heard old Tom say: “Well,
here goes my last dollar; I’m busted.”
And that gambler raked in the stakes.
I quickly grabbed up the deck of
cards and running them through my
hands, saw that they were marked.
The gambler sprang to his feet from
the table, when I said:, “Hold, these
cards are marked.” “Where?” said
old Tom. “Look there on the left-
hand corner.”
Old Tom grabbed up the cards and
said with an oath: “I see the marks,
and I told you if I caught you cheating
what I would do. Now I am going to
keep my word.” He took his knife

Hon. Gordon Lee, the present pop
ular and efficient congressman from
the seventh district spent Monday
in Cartersville, and those of his con
stituents who met him were delighted
at shaking his hand.
Mr. Lee is in
superb health and fine spirits and
looks as though the wear of official
life was not specially trying to his
physical or mental forces.
While here Mr. Lee took cognizance
of the situation regarding the site
for the proposed government building
in the city, and assured the people
that he would do what he could to
further matters looking to the locating
and construction of the building. As
negotiations for a site have not up
to now been brought to a consum
mation, it is likely that an agent of
the government will be sent again to
the city to examine sites and make
another report, after which that part
of the movement will be brought to
a head. At the next session of con
gress a bill making the appropriation
for the building is almost sure to be
passed.
Mr. Lee went up the Etowah to the
site of the proposed dam for which
surveys are now being made. He
speaks very hopefully about the pro
ject as a whole and believes- most
surely if the right effort is behind
it that congress will allow an appro
priation for the building of the dam,
He says the dam, if built, will mean
a great deal for Cartersville, making
it in fact, one of the foremost man
ufacturing towns in this section.
Mr. Lee would not commit himself
regarding his probable candidacy for
another term, saying it was too early
now to talk politics, but inasmuch as
there are many requests from all
