GENUINE RATTAN ROCKER HE Ml OKIE Got Knocked Down Twice, run Over a Woman and WAS FINED SIO.OO OR 20 DAYS. A Chester buy From Philadelphia '■'igures in tbe Fall of Ninevah. ‘ viiareyard” was Drunk and was Fined or 3 days. There were only two eases tried i n the ‘ Fall of Ninevah” this forenoon but they were not cases of every da) occurrance. The first one was a young fellow name 1 Joe Scanlan, charged with lighting and disorderly conduct. Scanlan savs he is a Chester, Penn, man. and that his home is in Phila delphia. Yesterday he made his appearance in Rome, his only com panion being his “fiddle and bow.” He beaded for the Opera House bar and spent the forenoon in dis coursiiig sweet music, kuseing “Southern fiddlers,” tanking up and finally criticizing Dixie. This put him undef the ban and when, after being made pay for a be r that he had swigged and tried to beat—he cursed Frank Duke, the temporary bar tender and got knocked down and kicked out. He landed on the streets with a black eye and was piloted to Trev itt’s Drug store by Bud Quarles. He had no money but Dr. Trevitt proceeded io bathe his swolen face with arnica, While the arnica was being rubed on Scanlan made some slightieg remarks about the man who had hit him and Mr Quarles knocked him down, and as Scanlan rose Quarles knocked him. down again. The next time the strolling mu* sician rose he “got up a running’’ and darting out of the drug store, turned into the old “Rash Shoe St re’’ building, now occupied by Mrs, Vick as a boarding house and restaurant. Quarles was in full chase and the flying fiddler in his mad flight ran over Mrs. Vick, scaled the back fence and headed for Lavender’s mountain. He was finally run down and run in by Officers Sharp and Moore. To them he said he had “done nothing” but had “run because he knew he could not get justice in the south,” He was fined $lO or 20 days by Recorder Spwllock. Scanlan looks to he about 23, is stocky, and fat faced and as he sat uti the “mourners bench” in the Fall of Nineveh’’ this morning, with a bandage around his fore head, and tears in his blue “black’-eyes, one’s thoughts natu rally turned towards hig Quaker City home and —we wonder what the old mother would think could she’see her bonny fiddler son play ing this star engagement through the South. He took his sentence with bow ed head and in silence —after a pause he raised his disfigured face to the Recorder and with a wistful look and a pleading voice asked if he might have his violin in the ce 1 with him. The request was granted and the strolling minstrel and his wandering fiddle were led back to the “Catecombs of Rome.” Scan, Scanlus, Scanlan. And again the curtain was roll ed up and behold from the galler ies of those same mystic “Cate combs of Rome” there strode into the presence of the Just Recording angel a venable ethiope by the name of Peter Mathis,alias “Grave Yard.” The evidence showed that “Grave Yard ’ must have been en joying a ghost dance and had been overcome with the “spirits.” He was fined $4 or 8 days. He. said he liked the ate day pait of it as ate was the past tense of eat and a reminiscent mood was better Thau being hungry and Having no recollection of a “soup-bone” ata’ll GUARANTEED LARGEST SIZE MADE tt ALL THE CAVE SPRING NEWS 4 THE HUSTLER S WIDE AWAKE COR RESPONDENT A HUSTLING. Cave Spring. June 28, 1894. Vacation, the sweetest, time du ring the year to a school-boy, is here with I’s pleasures, charms and fascinations; and how our nearts beat for joy when we know that there is nu Latin, Algebra, Geometry or Trigonometry to master for the next day’s recita tion. Still there is a feeling exist ing that is hard to shake oil, and that is sad indeed to think per haps that many of your school boy chums will not return in the fall to indulge in your experiences, bitter or sweet as they may be. The closing exercise of the fa mous old Hearn Institute passed oft’ pleasantly, much to the satis faction of the teachers and enjoy ment ot patrons and visitors, Thursday evening 21 inst, from 8 to 10:30 o’clock the little boys and girls entertained the audience m their usual happy style. Ou Friday morning the young men spoke in the Prize Declama tion contest from 9:30 to 11.30 o’clock, and your correspondent will add that it would do credit to any “Sophmore declamation con test” of any co'lege in Georgia and that Prof’s Knig and Pullen are to be congratulated on the "ay in which their previous training displayed itself in the speaking, done by their senior boys. Then came Friday evening, the young ladies timo of all times to create a profound impression on her lover, or to captivate some visitor by her charming recita tion. piano recitals etc. And in deed she held her place admirably and advertised their instructress es far and near as being thorough ly competent for their undertak ings. They were thoroughly drilled iu the science of education by Miss Ford, a young lady of real talents, aid equally as well in music by Miss Fannie Culbertson, who is given up to be one of the finest music teachers in the State. Thus passeed the closing exer cises of Cave Spring s flourshing school and we predict a much larger attendance from abroad in the fall. Messers. Ben Watts and M. Rosenfield, two hustling traveling, salesmen, and well known in tnese parts have been iu town for a day or two. Mr. Will E. Park is visiting bis parents, Ci p . and Mrs. J, T.

Boat riding is being indulged in very freely down here now, as there are quite a number of well equipped boats and the young folks delight in the exercise exceeding ly. With congratulations for Edi tor Byrd for his man’s (Atkinson) success, though Floyd did go for Evans. Wishing the Hustler much success I am yours, “C.” The many friends of Mrs. A< - die Stokes Mitchell will regret to learn that she has about perfected arrangments, and will in the early fall move her family to Mont gomery where she will make her future home.
