Mr. T. A. f rierson, the live real estate

and will probaely also conduct the one

having control of a large body of city

Mr. R. C. Pentland arrived in the city
Saturday from Middlesborrough, Ky.,
where lie has been engaged in tne real
estate business for some time. We are
glad to learn lie has arranged to remain
with his friends for several weeks. Mr.
Pentland is a stirring and clever young
man and numbers his friends here by
the score.
Mr. Henry J. Schoenthall, chief of the
Marietta fire department, was in the
city last Monday, instructing the mem

and regulations governing the contest
at that place to-day. He is a most ex
cellent young gentleman and an enthu
siastic and well informed fireman. He
is well pieased with our boys and think
they do extremely well for the short
time they have practiced.
A law partnership lias been formed
between A. M. Route and T. C. Milner,
and the card of the new firm—Foute A
Milner appears in another column.
These two gentlemen form a strong le

years a successful practitioner at the
Cartersville liar, while Mr. Milner has
occupied a place at the head of his pro
fession for years at Calhoun. We wel
come him back to his former home, and
trust that the business of the new firm
will be largely and continuously pros
perous.
Services were held last Sunday at As

the newly chosen rector, officiating. He
impressed his congregation most favora
bly, liis discourse being scholarly and
interesting. Ho will serve, besides As
cension church, tlie churches at Cedar
town and Dalton, dividing his time be
tween the three. He is late from Peters
burg, Va., and will probably move his
family to this place to reside. He will
be warmly welcomed by our people.

plains because the people of that town
have to send to Cartersville for ice, not
because of any objection to the article
made here, but thinks that city should
have a factory of her own. HaGrange
is about 135 miles from Cartersville and
the fact that she sends here for ice at
tests the superiority of the article made
by tlie Etowah company. The factory,
by tlie way, is running day and night
and has all it can do to supply orders,
tlio demand being great from towns
even at so great a distance as HaGrange.
Messrs. W. E. Brown and J. R. C.
Brown, jr., of Salem, Va., and A. P.
Neal, of Roanoke, Va., arrived in the
city Tuesday. These gentlemen are
members and represent the interests of
the Cartersville Hand and Manganese
Company, and are preparing to push
tlie interests of their company witli
vigor at once. Much is expected as an
outcome from the plans of this compa
ny. Certainly no new men, assuming
an interest in our city’s de\ elopment,
have in the same time by their actions
given evidence of a more earnest pur
pose and determination to carry out
their aims. They contemplate soon
having an importont land sale.

A Seventeenth District Monstrosity.
Rev. E. E. Hurling said to a Cou
rant-American reporter yesterday:
“Never felt more gratified than I
do now. A great many predicted
that T would die before taking the
census in the Seventeenth district,
I am in as good health, or better,
than when I commenced the work,
and am now ready to make my re
turns to Mr. Haley, the supervisor.
I have found a monstrosity in the
Seventeenth district. It is a bone
less child, about twelve years old—
a male—never has spoken a word,
walked a step or eaten a bite that
his mother has not chewed for him.
He is the son of John Stockman, of
Euharlee, and weighs only about
twenty pounds.
WEAK WOMEN.
The more sensitive nature of the fe
male sex readers women much more
susceptible than men to those numerous
ills which spring from lack of harmony
in the system. The nervous system
■jives way, sick headache is frequent,
the appetite is lost, and other ailments
peculiar to tne sex cause great suffering.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is peculiarly
adapted for such cases, and lias received
the most gratifying praise for the relief
it has afforded thousands of women
whose very existence before taking it
was’ only misery. It strengthens the
nerves (*urcs sick headache and indi
trestioi!, purities and vitalizes the blood,

Relic of the Confederacy.
1 )r. It. C. Miot possesses a gun that
lie much values as a substantial
souvenir of the “late unpleasant
ness.” The gun was first captured
by a union soldier from a confeder
ate. It was afterwards captured,
while Sherman’s forces were in
Columbia, by Dr. Miot—who was
then a mere boy— from the federal,
who was drunk, and let the weapon
fall into his father’s front yard.
The gun is one of the single style
of carbine made by tiie confederate
government, the factory being lo
cated in Columbia. Jt is a very
light weapon, made to hang at the
cavalryman’s side’, and could be
lifted and held and fired easily with
the right hand, while the left
grasped the bridle rein. Its appear
ance evinces a skilled mechanism,
the parts fitting up accurately and
nicely. Thp jaws at the breach,
containing lock and loading appa
ratus, are made of brass. Doctor
Miot says the gun is a strong and
true shooter. The ammunition used
is a brass shell, containing an aper
ture through which is f lirust a mus
ket cap, on which the hammer falls
to cause tlie fire. The shell is just
the size to encase the ordinary min
nie ball. Owing to these peculiari
ties, one shell could be used many
times, an item of no mean consid
eration during the signal scarcity
of facilities for war on the confed
erate side.
