Hi* Drove of Turkeys.
Yesterday there passed down Broad
street a drove of 200 turkeys. They were
owned by Mr-Jacoway, who had driven
them from Brandon’s Station, on the A.
& C. R. K,, in North Alabama. Mr,
Jackoway was on the road six days with
his turkeys. During that time, only one
“played out”—a fat old gobbler whose
feet becoming too tender to travel, Mr.
Jacoway disposed of for $1.50.
These turkeys were purchased at 55
cents a piece. From this point, Mr. Jac
oway shipped them to Charleston, where
he expects to sell them at from three to
five dollars a pair.

Playing Editor.
Dolph Rounsaville, we learn, passed
himself off at Cartersville, Sunday, as
editor of the Commercial, and, of
course, had a splendid time with the la
dies. Felton, hearing that the editor of
the Commercial was in town, strolled
around in the direction of Dolph’s board
ing house with an axe handle. This was
more than his editorship had calculated
on and so he slid down the lightning rod
and made tracks for Kinrston. It is a
very pleasant thing, generally, to play
editor, but then there is some little dan
ger, at times, also. They say Dolph
didn’t wait for the Rome train, at Kings
ton, but chartered a hand-car and came
home on that.

The Ball Tuesday Nisht.
The Ball at Empire Hall came off
Tuesday night according to announce
ment. We pseped in on the dancers
about ten o'clock, and we know that we
have never before seen so much beauty
together as we saw in the Empire Hall
night before last. The ladies of Rome
will at any time take the beauty premi
um, but on last Tuesday night, for some
reason or other—may be it was the tran
sit of Venus—they lookod lovlier than
ever before.
Prof. Sheffield, of Talladega, was
Master of Ceremonies, and acquitted
himself, as he always does, in handsome
Btyle. The Silver Cornet Band contrib

doubly enhance the “poetry of motion.”
We would like to give the ball a more
extended notice, but the press of other
matter forbids our doing so.

The Rev. W. C. Hendricks, on last
Monday, killed with a rifle, at a distance
of seventy-five yards, a fine specimen of
the American Bald Eagle. The eagle
was killed on Simms’ Peak in Texas Val
ley, about twelve miles from Rome. It
measured six feet and eight inches from
tip to tip of its wings, three feet from
point of beak to tip of tail, five inches
around the thigh, and its talons were
three inches long. The bird created
considerable interest yesterday while
being carried through our streets.

The Mans Troupe.
This justly celebrated Burlesque
Opera Troupe will make its appearance
in our city on the 18tninst. Of the many
commendations of the press, we have
space this morning for only the following
clipped from the Atlanta Herald,:
The Burlesque Opera Troupe of Mrs.
Jas. Maas played at DeGives last night
to a large house.
Mrs. Maas is certainly a very fine ac
tress. She sang “Brightest Eyes” in
German, with decided effect. The Cor'
net Solo was splendid. Mr. Jas. Maas
captured the house in his inimitable
Banjo Solo. His version of “Put Me
In My Little Bed” is simply the
acme of Burlesque. He has a peculiar
way of Baying a thing that makes a
laugh irresistible. Monday night is their
last appearance in Atlanta.
We have rarely ever seen a more amu
sed audience than the one out last night
to see this company. Mr. Maas is as
fine a negro delineator at we ever saw on
the stage. He was inexpressibly funny,
and kept the house in roars of laughter.
Mrs. Maas is a beautiful, sparkling
blonde with a face and a figure like a
Hebe, and she won the admiration of the
susceptible as well as the applause of the
appreciative.
Tlio I>o Dustro Troupe.
By reference to our advertising col
umns, it will be seen that the above com
pany will perform at the city Hall, to
night. In regard to this troupe the
Memphis Daily Appeal says:
The De Castro troupe gave its intro
ductory entertainment to a large number
of spectators at the Greenlaw Opera
house. Professqr Da Castro, in his Magic
Circle, exhibited quite a number of mar
velous tricks, to the great delight of (he
spectators. His ventriloquism is indeed
wonderful, for De Castro has long since
obtained perfection iu this strange science.
Jeppe, in his characters songs, Blinks,
and Don't But Four Foot on a Man, weie
sung and most appreciatively received.
Miss Fannie, in her staff-bell solo, gave
evidence of a thorough mastery of the
science, and evoked ’melodics rare and
touching from the unusal instrument.
Indeed, her proficiency is lemarkuble,
and she proves herself a true artist,
Auotker excellent feature of the enter
tainment was the flirtation duets, Little
Bunch and 'Twilight in the Park, by Jeppe
and Fannie, wh i were recalled and a
third time encored most enthusiastically.
The audience did not cease its clamor
until the manager stated that Miss
Fannie’s indisposition would prevent
her reappearance. After this Prof. De
Castro and Jeppe engaged in the great
Indian box mystery, which, to be fully
appreciated, must be seen. How any
man could free himself from a sealed
bag and get into a box, bound with
ropes, and without disturbing either the
knots or the strings, is quite astonishing.
This wonderful feat, however, which
some are disposed to ascribe to spiritual
ism, was most successfully accomplished
lastnigrbt. There were other features of
the entertainment equally interesting
and novel, which we have not space to
mention in this connection. The enter
tainment was quite pleasant and gave
general satisfaction to all present.
