Smith I thf r-ItJRTI FR OF ROME. FRIDAY JUNE 8. 1894. KIUSTER OF BULL’S EYE SHOTS. Rev. E. M. Dyei will preach Sunday morning at the Piesbyto rian Chapel in the Fifth Ward. All are cordia.iy invited to attend this serv ice, and a special invita tion is extended to ail Baptist who are interested in having services regularly in this Ward. A* 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 ten quarts of ice cream daily. Her young calf froze to death at fl e first nursiug. * * ♦ 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. * * * Col. B. F. Saw j er, “Rome’s vet eran Journal ist aud Author,” left last uight fur Anniston Ala , where he will visit today, returning to his home in Atlanta tonight. To morrow he will give a dinner at his elegant home in Atlanta, in honor of Georgia’s most distin guished dialect writer. Joel Chan dler Hanis, “Uncle Remus” of the Atlanta Constitution . W. A.

He says that he thinks 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 tate man and says he will vote for the nominee—which of itself speaks well for ms democracy. All the same I think Mr. Funk houser’s political forecast is off of cazipp. +++ Col. Bob Hargrove, voted for and worked for General Evans and did much towards carrying Floyd for him. He says he and the General were school boys and while he loves the old confed,, at the same time he feels certain that Atkinson is going t > win the nomination and will be overwhelmingly elected Governor. Col, Hargrove says he will, if he has to, support Mr. Atkinson most chejriully, * ♦ * “If we dont cany Sumter, for General Evans today, our name is Dennis,” remarked Col, Hamilton this forenoon* Sumter or no Sum ter, our name is already Dennis, so far as the state nomination is con cerned, “ replied Mr. Ed.
