ROME GA. « MS A Bright Roman Youth on the Island of Cuba, TELLS OF A BULL FIGHT Ind About Visiting; a Cigar and Ci garatte Factory and a Cemetery A Refreshing Boyish Letter by one of the Boy’s. Habana De Cuba, Feb. 15th 1894. —Well, lam here, did not know J vas coming until a few hours before i left I Was not sick the first night and iwoke allright, A chum I hud with ue, said if we would get up and run round some, we would be all right, Out oh my! I soon got deathly tick. 1 Lad to lie down and did not gel up until we got to Key West. I tried to eat dinner on the ship, out failed, it would not go down, 1 am over it now. We stayed in Key West from two .’Jack until lip. m. Saw the whole city and went to the show that night, went through the Convent and visit ed the Barracks, saw the soldiers, saw cocoanuts growing and walked through a growing tree, Ti e captain of the vessel got a car riage and took us all around. There is nothing like one stall ling in with the R. IL officials and the officials of the vessels, as I got free transporta tion and am stopping at the fines; Hotel in the city free of charge and aave a nice room all to myself. We left Port Tampa at night, and there was a tremendousjerowd aboard the Mascott, (that’s the name of the vessel.) Several of my friends and acquaint trices were aboard, Sirs. Suarez and her son, Primo, Mr. Shey and other from Port Tampa. IL ally the vessel was full. The wind was blowing like everything, but I was not the least bit Lightened. After we waved our hands nearly oil' the ship started, I went to the clerk tor a room and he told me to take either 10 or 14, I took No, 10 upper berth. The man who slept in the lower berth was a dead game sport, worth ten million dollars. Asl said before, I was not the least bit sick that night, and I began to think I vyas a sailor, but the next morning before we got to Key AV ®st, Primo told me if we would run round we would not get sick, but oh j how sick we did get, we took sofas in the hall and I lay there until we got nearly to Key West, where the water was smooth. AVe went to din ner with the captain, He is a Jim dandy man. AVe left Key West after the theatre that night. I tried to get to sleep be fore the ship started but it started in too big a hurry, but I did not get sick though the boat rolled, jumped and kicked, I slept like a log. The next morning they woke us up soon to see the scenery, going into Havanna harbor, and it w .s certainly line. After I did gel up it took me ab®ut an hour to dress. would get a stocking about half on and would have to lie down. Mono Castle is right at the entrence of the harbor by Th® light house and that w r as a grand sight: AVe anchored in the harbor and went ashore in little boats, (I went in a private launch) and you never heard such jabbering in your life, though each boat had an interpreter to try to get you to go to their hotel, we got in a Buss and went to our ho tel [Pasaje] and had ccffee, stayed there all the morning. That evening we went out on an excarsion to a pine apple We drove all over the entire plantation. The man who lived on the plantation lived in a house built on the good old Queen Anne style, the roof was made of pine apple tops and they lived on a ground floor. AVe eat pine apples until we could hardly get away. Like the way th® hotel is run here, coffee 7-9 Breakfast 92, Tinner, 5 9 no eupper, aud you bit they serve things in good style and I am always ready to eat or sleep. Next day we visited the largest cigar and cigarette factory there, saw their cemetery, went next to the Governor’s, Winter home; ”verytheng was so lovely there I 'bought 1 would not miud to stay a day or two with the Governor, (if he wished me to) W e went to the Cathedral, it is 300 years old. There is where Co lumbus is buried, I saw his tomb, vent to the theatre that night it was no good. The next day we went to the bull fight and you bst it was a tight, and a fight to the finish. The first thing, 53 men come.in dressed as Turks and drilled with guns,the caplam did not call out, out would sound his horn and the manoeu vring was perfect. Next, the matadors rode out on i fine horse, and the governor-gen oral threw the kejs to him to un lock the bull stable. He caught it in his hat, then the pickadores come out (they are the ones that tease the bulls) then the men < n horseback with their poles with hooks on the end of them, these are to keep the bulls away from their horses The bulls have been kept in dark ness for ten days pr vioua to this when the bull conies, one of the men on horseback sticks a sharp spear with a red rosette on the end of it, right in the middle es the bulls back so he cannot get it off then the teasers flirt their red fi igs in his face until he becomes en raged, then the fight is on. The poor little ponies are blind-' folded and pushed in on the bulls until they are killed. The men on the horses try with their long poles to keep them off the ponies, but they are killed or some of them are. Then a man with a stick about two feet long with something likc a Roman candle on the end of it, the bull then rushes at him, he stands perfectly still until the bull gets right at him, he then jumps up and sticks the sharp pointed thing in the bull’s neck. [ could not see how h« got out of she way of the bull, he did it B<> quick. • Then the matador® comes with a bright red fhig and a long sword and they fight until tne bull it killed. The fight continued until five bulls and two horses were kill ed.

There will be no trouble about sustaining G corgi /s splendid demo cratic majority, if the party is as wide awake and as active as usual. The state committee will discuss the sit nation when it assembles, and it will of course, take such steps as it deems advisable in arranging for such par ty action as will be necessary I wrott some time ago to all the members ( f of tho committee, asking the opinion of each as to what time the coiMiuitte( shoufd meet, and the date announces jf the call harmonizes with t! e vie <’r of those from whom I have heard.

And Bailiff Lawrence of Cedar town Followed Suit. The passengers on the Nortl bound CR&C passenger train witnessed a thrilling scene this forenoon, near Lake Creek station A few days ago a cullud gem man named Boon eloped from this city with Mrs. George Speer col. also of the Hill City. The gay couple were finally lo cated and captured last night al Cedartown, Sheriff Moore was no ticed by wire and as the down train had departed, he wired the Cedartown officers to bring th elopers to Rome this morning, They were marched aboard the train by Bailiff Lawrence of the “Iron City,” When near Lake Creek, aud while the train was running at full usual speed, the bailiff left his prisoners a moment and went into the next car. Boon seized the opportunity and stepped quickly out on the plat form, and sprang off. He fell all over the ground and rolled about 75 yards, but finaly sprang to his feet and made off into the woods. The Bailiff followed suit. The woman was brought on to Rome and is now sweetly resting in the county Hotel—She craves but one Boon on earth—and if the Bailiff can he will return him to her. sklafjklsjfklsf IS butsklndeep.
