Mr. F, Pence, the Broad Streat
Grocar, says that while he's an
‘ Evans man he is yet uncertain as
io who will win the democratic
nomination —“but,” says he, it
'■ makes no diffeience which of
them is nominated, he will be de
bated- Why, sir, this country is
■ full of rebellion, and it ought to
be, the way the people have been
treated and are suffering.” Mr.
Pence was tolerably in earnest,

I was told the story this morn
ing by a most reliable planter—
said he; “a few days ago, a bell
was heard ringing from the upper
air, and three «f us looking up,
discovered a chicken-hawk, flying.
The hawk “lit on a tree near by
and raked his neck with the tal
ons of one foot for a few moments
when the bell fell to the ground.
It was picked up by little George
Carver, and itie next time I come
to Rome I will bring it to the
Hu4.ti.er of Rome sanctum.” He
said iurther that the bell bore a
legend which gave brief data on
ns history. It was put on his
hawkship about a year ago by a
Mr. Barrett of near Calhcuu.

I was talking to Aiderman Alc-
C.ili’rey,chairmanof the Water Works
committee, this morning and asked
him about the report that tadpoles
aud dead dogs were inhabiting the
new reservior.AL. McCaffrey’s reply
was ‘‘No, if is not true, there are nei
ther tadpoles or tarrapins, dead dogs
devils in that reservoir—and whats
mor© there has not been, and better
still there will not be. We have an
efficient watcher at the reservior day
and night and Superintendent Alc-
Guire will muaage to exclude such
elements from the city’s water.

Mr. MoCaffery tells me that he
is making preparations to fence
the reservoir and hopes to have
the work well under way next
week. He thinks the "rumors’
must have been started by some
imaginative enemy of the present
administration.
Deputy Ehertff McConnell made
a good cow trade with Air. McCall.
I understand that said cow can
drink four gallons of frozen slop
and will on said diet yield si*
quarts of frigid milk shake aud

I dropped into Capt. R, G.
Clark’s office a few minutes this
morning to get his views on the
situation. Capt. Clark is one < f
those fine talkers who always “says
something” when he speaks, Capt
Clark gave me these figures to
ponder over: There are 92,000
ex-Confederate Veterans living
today aud there are 9U0,000 pen-'
sioners with 700,000 appllean Is for
! pensions in the North.’’ vaptain
C-ark in speaking of the home
; situation in politics said that it
looked ver}’ much like Atkinson
aud if it should be, while be
had done what he could for Gen.
Evans, why he was a democrat,
and would help elect Air, Atkin
son. lie believes the democrtic
nominee will be elected by a big
miprity.

Mr. Evans will be nominated yet
—but if he is not that Hines will
certainly defeat Mr. Atkinson. Mr.
Funkhouser is a tip top real es

the nominee—which of itself
speaks well for ms democracy.
All the same I think Mr. Funk

Col. Bob Hargrove, voted for and
worked for General Evans and did
much towards carrying Floyd for

were school boys and while he loves
