A PETTY HOME WEDDING
OCCURRED AT 9:30 DC LOCK Tl. B
FORENOON. IN THIS CITY.
One of the prettiest weddings
celebrated in Rome was that
this morning at the elegant bom*-
of Mr and Mrs. Sam M. Knox, the
latter being a sister of the bride.
At 9 o’clock the spacious parlors
weie well filled with the relatives
and immediate friends of the high
wnirncting parties and it was no
ticeable with what evident interest
the y< ung ladies present watching
for the arrival of the groom and
when his carriage rolled up to the
gate they whispered excitedly one
t® another “there he is.’’
Dr. G. T. Goeichius took his po
sition facing the parlor door arc
while Miss Knox, the charming
daughter of ex-mayor Sam Knox,
play“d the wedding march, the
couple came in taking their posi
tions just within the parlor door.
Mr Goetchius is exceedingly
handy and happy at whatever h e
does or undertakes and was partic
ularly so in th-i ceremony pro
nounced this morning, making
their two young and loving hearts
one. If a beautiful and appropri
ate service and an earnest and
faithful invocation of Heaven's
blessings upon their future has
anything to do with its sweetness
and happiness then surely the
pathway of these two will only be
strewn with fragrant flowers and
smiles and satisfaction.
All of this, if it be possible, the
Hustler of Rome wishes for Miss.
Florence O. DeJouinett and Mr. Ed
E. Holler.
After hearty congratulations, and
farewell and well wishing kisses the

The HUSTIER OF ROME TnLRo Dav, JULY, 12, 1894
W SI MK.
Chief “Nancy Han kb” Pre
cipitates a Sensation,
THE BASS-ANTOGNOLA DUET
And Dallas Turner’s Li.ff, all go to
Make up n Lively Time For the
Mountain City Romans who are in
the Swim—With their Feet in the
Sand,
St. Simons Hotel July 12th:—
One of the biggest seasatoius of
the seasons was precitated by Chief
Hanks of the Mountain City con
tingent, at St. Simons Hotel last
night.
Chief Hanks, or as every one
down herecalls, him “Nancy,’’ was
outjon the beach, about 10 o’clock
last night, and was giving a blue
eyed Peachtree Street 16 year old
bell lesson iu astronomy, and tel
ling her how beautiful the even
ing star shon when it was
about an luur high over the reser
voir hill, and how much stronger
and clearer the moons beams were
when viewed from the top of the
Rome Water Tower and how bright
the stars shown when hung on the
bosom of a Rome policeman.
Suddenly he observed the action
of the ocean and from the suspi
cious jvay in which it seemed to be
creaping up he felt th *t there was)
some funny business going on.
Hastily he removed blue eyes
small white hand from bis shoul
der and escorted her to the hotel
and bade her a blameless good
night.
“Nancy” then hastily repaired
to the waters edge and drove in a
“stub” to make sure if the ocean i
was rising.
Minute by minute, until they
grew into an hour and a t half, the
faithful Chief paced the beech .
moved his “stobs” and masured i
the rise by his thumbs until at
last he believed that something
must be done,
He renumbered that Mountain
City No. 2. was quartered ou the
first floor and thought grimly over
the joke, that if the ocean had
really suffered a water spout aud
that the Islaud would be flooded
that “No. 2. would, as usual in the
high water districts—get first wa
ter.”
Only a moment did he pause to
record the joke in his mind then
he made a wild dash for the hotel
aud woke up every Roman in the
hotel and had them to move, with
their valises aud extra collars to
the top floor of the Hotel.
Some ofjthem.kicked at first, but
when they got a gtimps of Chief
/Nancy’s” face they could see that
the “general alarm” had been rung
in and was plainly registered.
After the upper story had been
occupied by the Hill City folks
then Nancy sprung the sensation ■
—by ordering: “everybody move
up your goods! The wateis rising!
Aud after the wild excitement
had about ceased its stampede it
was the Peachtree Street girl who
led Chief Nancey into the parlor
and taught him the other half of
that interrupted lesson ami lold
him all about the “tide."’ Aud
‘‘Nancey” will remember.
o o o
Out on the beach today Shorty
Vandiver and Maitland were dis
cussing the subject and Maitland
took the grounds that the Sea
mew did not emiuate from the cat
fish. “Shorty” seemed to think
that it did, but soon got into an
other argument with Jim Lancas
ter, who pointing toward a pretty
barque, laying to in the offing, re
marked: “theres a pack of dog
fish just out there.”
‘Why, how can you tell?” ex-
claimed the enterprising ex-Alaba
mian.
"Because I can see the barque.”
But Sbdrty “sawed off the crowd
of good natured guys, w hen he
proved that he knew where th»
“bar” wan by the way the “schoon
ers” stood iu,

Joe Owens has discarded the
ciape on his hat and the average
vioiior tutbiiy mistakes 11 un ior a
gay old bi cholor instead of the
widower. Jon told an Athens Shoe
store mtn, this m >rning that the
sands on St. Simons were all im
ported goods. That they were
ground from Russian sand paper
and were refined in the Liverpool
, glass factories ami were used by
ocean s'eamers for sanding their
tracks when they had to pull over
heavy seas—and that afterward
owit g to the political formation
of th.) Oceana bed these sands came
ashore ou St. Simons.
Joe told the Athene man that he
could prove it by Ben Miller and
Sam Stanfield aud that he would
—and he will too.

Dr. Frank Wynn is having a
regular picnic in these waters. By
his amiable ways and courteous
and graceful manner and charm
ing habit of always holding the
umbrella, he has made himself a
perfect lady's man.
One of the little “brownies’
said to me cnlya few moments ago:
“Oh. I just dole on Dr. Frank —1
think it was just too exquisite tor
him to quit his business and give
his patients another chance for
their lives and come down here to
help us poor girls havesuchanice
timt —donchew? ’ Aud we made
ourselves agreeable and didn’t—
chew.

Colonel John Foster and Will
Gordon are enjoying this trip;
I hugely. They Icunge along the
sands by the yard and every now
and then—id the language of
Hardin : “They are just like two J
old sisters from Saud Alountain, i
about “dipping,” they have to dip,'
its what they are here for.’’ And
Paul is right. John Foster and the
Major are up to enuff, when it
comes to bathing.

John Corley is the finest on
wheels, he sent an order to Jack
Davis this morning for webbs, and j
says he make a water
fowl out of his bike, He and Pat
Allen aud Millard Mulkey had to
be run in by Officer Joe Sharp, the
first night we enteied these teri
tories.
Millard thought that a fellows
bathing costume was licensed to
do business on the bed of the ocean
and Pat said the sheet of water
was warm enough for him, and
Corley forced the conclusion by
lowin: “Yes and twixt the hotel
bed and the Ocean bed Id druther
risk the crabs here than—the sap
suckers up yonder—Say fellers
less not go up there aud try to sleep
under a skeeter net.”
They had paid their money and
would have taken their choice, but
for Officer Joe Sharp, hacked by
Aiderman Reese Miller.

At this writing Lewis Bass and
Peter Antognoli are singing a duet
—for Chief Nancey’s benefit; as
near as I can get onto the thing I
• think the subject is
You may watch the stars that twinkle above
And the moon light the ocean wide,
But while you are at it sweet heart—my love
just keep one eye on the tide.
