IjojllWD JAM Twenty-five Clerks Kept on the Rilsh. every day bargain dry, Goods Going, as Advertised, ‘ Regardless of Cost.’* Every day is a “bargain day” at the big Bass Bros & Go’s, closing out sale. And every day witnesses jams that have never before been equalled in the mercantile histo ry of Rome. Even the showers do not stay the tile of the bargain thirsting humanity, and but seldom im perceptibly impedes its onward rush. Twenty-five clerks, all expe rienced salesmen and sales la dies, are scarcely able to handle the trade that has been drawn to Bass’ closing out sale, for several hours each day for the past three weeks. Hence we say every day is a bargain day. Th? Hustler-Com mercial did not go through the stock today. It was work enough' to go through the store, and what we saw along the middle tier ot tables and counters was enough to satisfy us or any one else that the stock is being slaughtered. After seeing gents necties that cost all the way from 19 to 70 cents going into a common re ceptacle and going at 10 cents each, it was easy to account for the swarm that hovered around the edges of this sweet. 1 hen whan we saw a table of sox, including half hose, that ranged in cost from 15 to 44cts, the pair and saw them 15 cents for choice ; why,- it was easy to understand why this cord of sox was a popular chord 1 hen there was the gent’s shirt table. On it was a rack of l (|, l shirts just takon from stopk and every shirt costing from 55 to $ 1.10 each, and you take your choice for 39 cents. Think of thut, a laundried or an unlaun diied, a white or colored, a hard bosom or negligee, anything and everything going at 39cts. I noticed four large counters packed and stacked with ging hams, muslins and dimities, none of them costing thj house less than 6| cents, while some cost as high as 33 cents, and these goods were selling for 6 cents per yard. Here Mr. Powers, the heau sal esman, was called away for the half a dozenth time, and as- v ‘ l " ;l 'tiug a half hour and see lng there was no chance for him to escape from a cordon of cus tomers that waited on him col ecuvely while he waited on t 1( .n consecutively, I those coasts.

Boggs, of the State University, has resigned and his resignation has been accept ed. Dr. Boggs has held the po sition for many years. His resignation creates no surprise, as the legislative in vestigation and" newspaper crit icisms have made the chancel lorship less desirable than be fore the onslaughts were made. Whether these facts had any thing to do with the course adopted by the chancellor is not known. Asbestus Weather Paint is fireproof and can be applied on wood, brick or iron buildings.
