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 bridal party left for the E. T. V. & G, depot on a tour of a few weeks after which they will return to Rome, iu 1 the midst of so many friends, to make their future home.

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, 000 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. o o o 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. o o o 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. 000 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. 000 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. 000 And Dallas turner laffed ! 000 Alountain City is the stuff and will make the connection with the Hustler of Rome aud throw The Hustler’s readers another good stream of news, ’ceptin our foun tain pen runs dry. Give my love to John Projtor and Bud Taylor. Yeurs in the swim. James D. + Miss Sallie Walker of thia city and Capt. and Mrs. Will Elliott of Atlanta are spending a few days most pleasantly at Tate Springs.
