SEVENTEENTH.
This is leap .year girls. How are you
progressing?
The farmers are all very busy preparing
for another year of hard toil.
Rev. M. G. Tuggle, of Kingston,
preached a splendid sermon at the Bap
tist church Sunday. Our young teach
ers at the grove are getting along very
nicely with their school.
Mr. John Trapp, of Grassdale, was in
our community last week on a horse
trading expedition.
Miss Lula Owens, after a very pleasant
visit to relatives and friends at Grass
dale, returned home last week.
Mr. William Morris is having him ti
v *ry neat cottage built. This is leap
year, girls, arid why not try to captivate
the old bachelor and his new house.
Mr. .James .Jolley and lady have moved
into their new home. We welcome them
cordially to our midst.
Quite a bevy of our girls have gone
out as teachers this year. We wish them
all grand success.
The many friends of Mr. J. B. Owens,
of Rome, are very sorry to learn of his
illness. Joe is a general favorite in our
midst, and we hope he will soon be able
to be amongst us again.
Mrs. Mary Owens has been visiting rel
atives in Alabama.
Mr. W. A. .Jolley has gone to Taylors
ville to enter into business instead of
your city.
The Sunday School has been organized
at the Baptist ■church with a goodly at
tendance.
Mr. Will Woodruff and lady, of Griffin,
have moved to their home in the Seven
teenth. They are quite an acquisition to
onr community.
( ‘apt. Mark Hardin was up from Atlan
ta last week.
Wonder if any of the girls will remem
ber me this year and p—p the question.
Our time is up for the Courant-Ameri
can, but understand everybody, we are
going to pay up and have it sent on.
Slim .Jim.
GRASSDALE.
This is Monday night, and a dreadful
night it is. Therein is pouring almost
in torrents, the wind is howling in a
dreadful manner, and dark* gives but a
faint idea as to the appearance out doors.
If is just such a night to make us appre
ciate the comforts and blessings of a
good home, surrounded by our loved
ones, and to realize how very thankful
we ought to be to Him Who gave us so
much more than we deserve.
Should this kind of weather continue
for a few days longer, somebody will suf
fer along the water courses, and those
who are on high lands will have to stay
at home, for the roads will soon be al
most impassable. Who would think as
they go clashing along over our fine sum
mer roads that they could ever get as
bad as they do during a long rainy spell?
Hut one great consolation, the good
roads get the larger part of the year.
Mrs. Daisy Hawkins is visiting the fam
ily of Rev. P. E. Hawkins. Mrs. H. will
i! ways mc<*t with a hearty welcome
among the Grassdale people. Though
she has not been with them often, not
long at a time, still she has made favora
ble impressions upon all whom she has
m >t. One other thing, which of itself is
enough to endear lieu- to our people, is,
she 4 is the wife of Murray, who can count
♦weryone around here as his friend. Don’t
be uneasy, Murray, if she stays a little
longer than anticipated, for she will be
well taken care of. Some of our tolks
have not forgotten how very kind and
attentive you were, and how graudly
they were entertained at your house re
cently.
Miss Hat Weems has returned from
Home, where she spent some time visit
ing relatives. She reports having had a
Very delightful time. From what I can
learn, I don’t think she is quite as heart
whole and fancy free as before visiting
lii at city.
Miss Alice Hawkins, who has been vis
iting friends in Rome and near Cave
Spring, was to have returned today.
There must be some attraction up that
way.
Mr. and Mrs. Hob Saxon are at Mr.
Hob Best's.
Miss Mamie Saxon is teaching at Iron
vilie.
I want to inform you how some of our
vo mg holies spend the Sabbath: Preach
ing in the morning, love feast in the eve
ning, generally only two to give their ex
perience, and prayer-meeting at night.
• na you imagine how their time could be
spent more profitably.
Miss Leila Weems is teaching at her
ho ne, with flattering prospects for a
g(>■ nl school.
Bernard Herring is still confined to Ids
b<- with fever.
Lawrence Luther, 1 understand, is sick
wit h fever.
'i he bad weather on Sunday did not
deter Will from visiting her. Hope, he
was amply repaid for his muddy ride.
Jifn had to go after his mail on Sunday.
CItOFTON.
HALES MILL .
Everybody is sitting around waiting
for the weather to clear off.
Major Hood is all smiles this week. He
says it is a fine girl.
Miss Addie Baltzelle is visiting friends
in Chattanooga this week.
Miss Emmie Lumpkin has returned
from a pleasant visit to West Point.
Regardless of the inclemency of the
weather, there was a very nice crowd of
young people gathered at the residence
of Mr. Ware last Friday night for the
purpose of a leap year party. We will
begin to describe the scene by saving that
Prof. Kerr made a very nice opening
speech on the subject of “Doctors long
tail coats and derby hats,” (the latter of
which is taking the day at Hall’s.) The
Professor made a very nice and laugha
ble speech. We are largely indebted to
him for our fun on account of his vvicty
sayings and comic songs. The evening
passed off very nicely and all appeared
to enjoy themselves splendidly. About 9
o’clock they passed around refreshments
which had been prepared by the most
skilled cooks. Mr. and Mrs. Ware are a
genial host, and their kindness in permit
ting us sucli an opportunity of being to
gether and enjoying ourselves so much
will long be remembered and nourished
among us as a memento of past pleas
ure. Bob Bail.
KINGSTON.
Another death in Kingston. This time
the grim monster claimed Thomas Young
blood, one of our most worthy old men.
He was attacked on Sunday night, the
Bth ult., with incarnation of the stomach
and died on Sunday night the 15th. His
sufferings were very great, but he bore
it all with Christian patience. He was
sixty-six years old. Truly a good man
is gone. He has been a consistant Chris
tian and a worthy member of the Baptist
church for many years. He leaves a
disconsolate companion arid several
children to mourn his loss, but they feel
confident that he is at rest. Peace to
the dust of our dear old friend and
neighbor.
Kingston High School is in full work
ing order with Mr. and Mrs. Tuggle at
the head and daily attendance of over
sixty. This is the place to send your
children for thorough instruction. Mr.
Thomas deems, of the Seventeenth Dis
trict, is attending school here. The pub
lic term is now in session.
The Methodist parsonage is being
nicely painted and elegantly furnished
with new furnituue. The Kingston cir
cuit is the banner circuit of the state of
the Methodist Episcopal Church Sputh.
The Methodists are very much attached
to their pastor, Rev. J. M. White and his
interesting fai nily.
Prof. Waters and lady, the blind musi
cians, was billed for a concert at the
academy but were fained out. Our citi
zens have missed a rare feast of music.
We notice Mrs. J. E. Parrott, of Cal
houn, and Mrs. Chas. Johnson nee Miss
Anna Parrott, of West Point, Ga., visi
ting the family of I. M. Davidson.
Mr. Dunklin Irby, after a pleasant
visit to his home in South Carolina, has
returned to Kingston and is with Mr.
S. I. Sheats, in the telegraph office, sling
ing lightning. •
Mr. Eugene Roper with engineer corps
near La Fayette, Ga., is shaking, hands
with his friends in Kingston.
Mr. J. F. Hargis is agent for a tele
phone company and has a line from the
store of McKelvey & Hargis to Mr. Har
gis' residence, three or four hundred
yards, and it works like a charm.
I forgot to state that on the Ist Satur
day in January an election was held in
Kingston for town council and the
unfortunate ones that were elected were
J. M. Anderson, J. H. Eubank, W. L.
Bennett, J. L. Elliott and last, though
not least, J. M. Davidson. Poor fellows I
pity them. They will have to bear the
blessings and cursings, perhaps more of
the cursing, for twelve months.

Leap year, sure enough* in earnest.
Look out, young man; but especially do
we mean old bachelors and widowers.
Already some of the b s liave been play
ing with Cupid's bow-strings. Look out
for the arrows. If you get on the b. line
your heart is in danger. We learn, that
an old bach, who carries a handle to his
name in the shape of a Prof, had the pa
pers served on him last Sunday eve and
was forced to give up his arm, and was
actually marched out to and from the
church. To the young ladies, old maids
and widows, now is your golden mo
ments. Shine forth conquering and *to
conquer.
ARP STARTS A BOOM.
/Wliat the People of North Geor
gia are Doing
The Treasures Hidden in the Earth—Bar
tow County's Prosperity—A \\ el
come to Strangers.
Last summer I overheard two men
talking as they were digging away in the
mines, and one said: “Jim, they say
thar is a big bum up at Rome.”
“What’s that?” said Jim.
“Why hit’s a kind of thing whar one
feller gits something for nothing and
another feller gits nothing for some
thing.”
“Why that’s a faro bank or a lottery,
ain’t it?” said Jim.
“No it ain’t. I tell you its a bum —a
kind of a tradin’ business what swells
and shrinks and the swelled and shrinker
stays down in a cellar and works the
machine. They trade in stock.
“Horses and mules?” said Jim. “No,
hit’s all on paper and nobody can see
what he is buyin’. You put your inopey
in and wait for a swell. If it comes you
are all right, but if a shrink comes you
are busted, and you feel so shamed that
you don’t say anything about it, and
it never gets into the papers—nothing
but the swells gits in the papers.”
Well, the booms have about subsided
in Rome and Birmingham and Decatur,
and those thriving cities have settled
down to business. When a man buys
real estate there now he means business
nojb speculation but business and that is
honest and healthy. A slow and sure
growth is the best. That is just what
we want here in Cartersville and the
signs are good. There is not a house
to rent and many are wanted right now.
But we are building and will soon have
some manufactures here that will en
liven the town. It is the prettiest town
of its size now in the state, except Mari
etta, and does more business than any.
There is one dry goods house here that
sells more goods than any retail house
in Rome, and one hardware that
does more business than any hardware
house in Rome, and one wagon and
carriage factory that makes more vehi
cles and sells more than any in the state,
and a man told me he sold twenty
thousand dollars’ worth of family gro
ceries last year and never lost but two
dollars and forty-five cents. We ship
manganese across the ocean and to Car
negie, in Pennsylvania. We ship yellow
ochre to New York and iron ore to
Tennessee. The fact is we have enough
minerals here to keep 5,000 hands busy
for a hundred years. I see that a Talla-*
poosa boomer says in an interview that
he found more ore at Tallapoosa than he
did at Cartersville. Well, lam not going
to slander Tallapoosa. That New York
Herald man told enough lies on her to
do for awhile, but there is more iron ore
in one hill in Bartow than there is within
twenty miles of Tallapoosa. Bartow is
the great reserve, the mineral storehouse,
and it is the granary, too. We make
more grain than any county in the state,
more in quantity and more to the acre.
Our taxpayers return their lands at a
higher rate per acre than any county in
the state. We have more rivej*s and
creeks and bridges and mills than any
County. We have most everything that
anybody wants. Why, I saw four men
from Rome over here yesterday with
their dogs and guns, came over here
to find game. Our doctors play back
gammon half their time, and the sexton
is so poor hecan’t gotoa circus. Neither
epidemics nor contagions can live here,
for it is a round,’rolling-country, with
drainage in every Valley and rich valleys
between all the hills. There are seven
streams-and five springs and a creek
upon my little farm of 200 acres. A
traveler can stop and water his horse
every two or three miles, if he wants to.
We have a street railroad that splits the
town in the middle, and runs from
Rogers to Stegalls and from Stegalls
to Rogers, with ten trains a day—not a
horse car line, nor a dummy, but a, sure
enough steam line, with a palace car
attachment. We can go anywhere we
wish to as cheap as we can stay at home
and do it in less time. We have the best
w'eekly paper in the state excepting those
that are better than it is and I don’t
know where they are. If any friendly
man away up among the blizzards wants
to come south either for good health
or morals, let him send a dollar to the
Courant-Amekican and he can learn all
about old Bartow and Cartersville. But
he needn’t come if he is opposed to Mr.
Lamar’s confirmation. We don’t want
that sort of cattle. .
