WELCOME VISITORS.
Mr. Eugene Zimmerman, the hon
ored president of the Alabama und
Georgia Iron Company, was regia
tcred at the Bouz House over Sun
day. He was accompanied by Mr.
John C. Soley, of New York, who ts
associated with him in the B. A A.
road and the Talladega furnace.
While here they inspected the
various valuable properties of the
Alabama and Georgia Iron Com
pany.
Mr. Zimmerman was very non
committal as to the new railroad
plans with which he Is said to he
connected. We will say, however,
that Cedartown would lie well
pleased to see him intimately Iden
tified with any project affecting her
Interests,
The report of his daughter’s en
gagement to the Duke ol Manches
ter, Mr. Zimmerman pronounces to
lie false. He does not care to have a
titled son-in-law from the other side
of tho “big pond,’’ but shows his
sturdy good sense by declaring in
favor of American husbands for
American girls.
Mr. Zimmerman Is always a wel
come visitor, and Cedartown re
joices at his ldentificallon with her
Interests.

pices of tile Alabama Society. The
subject of the lecture was ‘John, the
