The worst was expected when he reached that place. It is thought several contracts for new buildings will be let this season. Already the spirit of improvement has taken possession of our people and gratifying signs are seen on every hand. Mr. ( e . Word hasJieensick forsometime bul his condition has improved some what in the past few days, lie will leave shortly for Kentucky in quest of health. His many friends hope for him a full re storation and a pleasant time. Spring chickens tire being rushed to market just now. Some of them seem lo take their condition very seriously and keep up a continual cry for their inn. Their nut should have them. A young Pennsylvania society woman has just eloped with a darkey.

'phat much money is just about as scarce with this editor as Gault's Re ports. and consequently we had to de cline the tempting offer. Hr. T. H. Kenan, formerly of the board of physicians of the state lunatic asylum, and now a member of the legis lature from Baldwin county, was in town Saturday and honored Thk Coi ic.vnt-Amkuican with a pleasant call, lie is a cultured man, one who is much beloved by ad who know him. The picnic at Shelman's by the Baptist Sunday school last Friday was a most enjoyable one. Old folks joined the lit tle one's in a day of merriment that was astonishing and it was hard to tell who was having the most fun. Nothing oc curred to mar the occasion, and Mr. Cooper says it was the best picnic of this or anv other season. Messrs. Henry Stiles, Miles Dobbins, 11 am Stiles and Harry Hall, came down from Palters vide yesterday on a row boat, and made the trip in live and a hah' hours. The boat is a beautiful one, having been made in a northern city at ft cost of S9O. It was carried back home on a wagon and as it passed up Broad street won the admiration of ad who saw it. —Rome Courier. We have been shown a private letter from a gentleman now living in Birming ham, who has been endeavoring to come lo Carters vide to look at our mineral re sources, but has Iteen kept from doing so on account of sickness in his family. The gentleman, in his letter, says that Birmingham is very unhealthy at ](res ent and prophesied t hat hundreds of her people will leave daring the summer. THE CONDUCTORS’ Pit NIC. Tho largest aml Happiest Picnic Crowd I vpr Seen In This Sec linn Six thousand happy and fun-bent peo ple is not an everyday sight, but such a one presented itself to those who at'.end ed the conductors' picnic at eharning “Spring Batik' last Thursday. A i larger crowd, possibly, may have been j before ga there* 1 together in this sn-tion, j but there certainly never was a happier ! one. The day dawned most auspiciously, the cooling atmosphere redolent with the sweetest aromas of spring, every body for the time being throwing dull care aside and becoming thoroughly imbued with the prevailing spirit, it is no wonder that everything passed off so smootliiy and satisfactorily to the par ticipants as well as the brotherhood. The affair was all t hut could lie wished. Tin* spot selected was enchanting a id a more beautlf .1 one could uot have been selected within the breadth of Fartow county. Every arrangement for tin ac commodation and convenience of the happy throng was there. Those having j affairs in charge were untiring in their i energies in making the day w hat it was, and the manner in which they conduc ed things was the source of many compli mentary remarks. A well-erected dancing platform of im mense proportions, two excellent bands were at the disposal of those that chose to sjieud the day “tripping the light fan tastic.” This was kept up pretty much all the time, only stopping during the delivery of a couple of short speeches, all seeming to enjoy the dancing very much. There was amusements sufficient for all and the crowd seemed determined to get the most out of them. The train from Atlanta was composed of fourteen coaches, crowded from “stem to stern,” mid lots of them hanging on to anything that was handy. The train from Chattanooga went ten better, being composed of twenty-four coaches. Such truins and such crowds! It was none of your eager-anxous, fretful political crowds where you were always antici pating some serious trouble, bat a happy one in the extreme, everybody trying to see who coil <1 1) 1 the happiest and most pleasant. Strangers met and convened as free yas intimate friends. One notice able teal ure. and a very gratifying one indeed, there was scarcely any drinking of intoxicating liquors on the ground. Two poor fellows arriving in the scene in a pretty bad condition had sense enough to take in the sit illation at once and accordingly vacated the spot and remained away from the crowd until the afternoon, when they turned up in better condition than when they came. They behaved better than any drunken fellows ever seen. The (Jouuant-Ameiucan would like to publish the speeches made in full but it is impossible for want of space. Maj. ( has. 11. Smith made one of his most inimita ble efforts, which was enjoyed by all who heard it. ('apt. Dick Hargis attempted a speech and progressed very well until he came to tell how dearly beloved the conductors’ brotherhood, when his great big heart gave way and it was necessary to carry him off on a litter, (’apt. Dick is a whole team in picnic af fairs and* it was largely through his efforts that this once was such an im mense success. It would be useless to go into details, they would till every column of this paper. The dinners spread, suffice it to say, were all goo 1, and the i,u ilit.v and quantity of them were immense. 1 here was fully enough to f< e 1 tw c ■ the num ber present. We have yet to hear of a single person that failed in having a fine dinner and an immense time. PICNIC CRUMBS. The Misses Howard were very kind in deed in granting the conductors the privilege of using their beautiful spring and grounds for their picnic. They may wed congratulate themselves on possess ing such a beautiful home as “Spring Bank." Col. George 11. Waring was on tin; grounds and did much in making every body fi>el at home, lie shut down his Cement works to allow all hands a day of unalloyed happiness. The Capitol City Baud, of Atlanta, discoursed some delightful music, which was one of the most pleasant features of the day. ('apt. Dick Hargis wants another pie nic, and is going to have one. only it will be on a much smaller scale. Next Saturday t here will be a family re-union at his pleasant home, and the day will be spent in a genuine love feast, (’apt. Dick can now be counted as a regular picnic hand equal for'any and ad emer gencies. The engineer and fireman that drew the Chattanooga train were presented with beautiful souvrinirs of the trip, gold pins in shape of an engine, were presented them. Sanford Vandivere was happy, of course, and kept in that condition the whole day. Sanford is “some pumpkins" on a picnic himself, when it comes to taking care of the crowds. The Tenneseeans were delighted with their trip and the idea that Chattanooga was the whole world was instantly ob liberated from their minds. They brag ged on our scenery and the country shamefully and were astonifthed at the natural resources of the county. Mr. J. S. Reach, representing the “Bile B‘an" lieu*, ol St. Louis, has just fin ished a good advertising job for his jiouse. He is a clever gentleman and a g ‘iiu'n' “hustler,’’ when it comes to looking after business. Miss Addie Henderson, of Murfrees boro, Tenn., after spending sometime pleasantly with Miss Lula White, re turned home Tuesday morning. The train that bore her off was well attended and one could see many a young man in despair at her leaving. She made warm triends here who will always remember her many good qualities and gentle man ners and will look forward ro a repeti tion of her visit with great pleasure. HO, FOR ROME! A Large Crowd Will Go Over Sunday to Hear Kt, Sam. Jones. Arrangements, have been made for those wishing to spend the day in Rome next Sunday to do so. A special train will leave here about 7:30 Sunday morn ing. arriving in Rome an hour and a half later. On returning parties can leave Rome at 3 p. in. making connection at Kingston with the regular afternoon train that arrives here at 4:40 and for those that wish to remain over to the night service a speeial will be run from Rome to Kingston to connect wit i No.;i2 that arrives here 12:36, p. m. One fare for the round trip, which will only be ninty cents. Let a good crowd go over and see how our two Sams are shelling the devil s stronghold in the “Hill City, Corn and Hams. TTe Lave just received 1,000 bushels o<f Corn and a fine lot Country Cured Hams, which will be sold cheap for cash. HUDGINS & ANDERSON. We have got a nice assortment of Wash Dress Goods in Seersucker, Lawns, Mus lins, Ginghams, Cham brays, etc., and we want to sell them to you and we are go ing to do it if prices are an obejet with you.

The following from the Carnesville Reg ister speaks of the father of our fellow townsman, Mr. A. G. B. Vandivere: We saw a newspaper statement a few days ago that a man living in Oconee county had five children all of whose name be gan with I). Rev. Matthew Vandivere, who oneed lived in this county, had six children, five of whom had names begin ing with A. His children’s names were Alfonso, Almarine, Albert, Alfred, Arta missa and Desdemonia. Mr. Vandivere was one of seven brothers, all of whom were Baptist preachers. Two of his sons, Almarine and Albert, were preachers. As a minister Almarine was successful, and Albert, though quite a young man, was reckoned a very able minister. Jle died early in life. Matthew Vandivere was considered an able man, and 45 years ago lie filled a large space in the minds and hearts of the people of this county. It is likely that no minister since his day has been more noted among the people than he, yet there are hundreds of men and women in this county who were born and raised here that never heard his name. Such is life and such is fame. Now For Downy Beds, About the best equipped business of the kind that has ever been in this section is the feather renovating business of Messrs. D. \\ . Rankin & Cos., who have recently opened up in the old Shockley building on the east side of the square. They are very clever gentlemen and do nice work at cheaper prices than usual. We have siva some of their work and do not hes itate to recommend them and their busi ness to the housekeepers of Cartersville and Bartow county. They have light wagons made expressely for the business, and those wishing their feather beds or pillows made as fresh as new, by sending them word, can have them taken off and brought back promptly. Nothing is nicer than a clean, soft feather bed, and these gentlemen can revolutionize them in their very worst condition. A Bartow Man In Colorado. 1 lie Buena 1 ista (Col.) Democrat has this to say concerning an old citizen of this county, a brother of Mr. Jim Rich, of this place: Mr. N. A. Rich tel’s us that lus mining property at Weston Bass is looking quite promising. The vein shows a foot of sand carbonates which runs 41 per cent lead and 43% ounces silver. They are now drifting on the vein, and as soon as the snow is off will commence ship ping. Buena Vista will get the ore if the smelter is running at that time. Letter List.

Coffee is too High. “There is not one-third the coffee used now as there was twelvemonths ago,” remarked a Cartersville merchant to a Covkaxt-American man the other day. “Why, what's the matter?” was asked “The price is too high for most people. They are doing without or cutting down in that line, rather than pay the prevail ing and rapidly rising prices. You see Lorillard and a lot of the money kings of New York bought up last year's crop and made a corner in the market. They ran the price up high but the consumers have proven equal to the emergency and have cut down supply or done without altogether. The new crop will come in pretty soon and a decline is expected in prices, when poor white folks and nig gers and all will drink their usual cup of coffee. Mr. Lorrillard and his gang has got left in the coffee corner this time.” A Card. Messrs. Editors —Certain interested par ties have circulated the report that I have been advertising to give 14 pounds granulated sugar for SI.OO and made my profit by giving short weights.
