Uncle Jete Miller, after an ill ness of eight weeks, is once more able to be out. lie came up to the city yesterday and, though a little weak, he was as “jovial and jeni al” as ever. Uncle Jete tells me that he has a white oak tree, on his farm in Vans Valley which measures eighteen feet in circum ference, four feet from the ground. Uncle Jete says he is saving that tree for its stump, and proposes to turn it over to Jake Moore when he gets ready to run for Congress. *** One of the best advertising dodges of the season has been sprung by the Britanica people, who are selling the Constitution work, advertised elsewhere in this paper. The Britanica people on yesterday put a circular on the street which might mean a lot and then it might mean nothing. It was headed “Not.” Today they followed it up with “No 2” and “discovered” themselves to the public in an article full of “gum and get there material.” Krom what I can understand, the Con stitution’s Britanica has been grossly slandered of late. * * * Miss Leona HackneV, the charm ing daughter of Col. R. G. Hack ney was in the city shopping this morning. To a Hustler of Rome reporter Miss Hackney 'said that she had raised, this summer, a cu cumber which weighs 3f lbs. Thai cucumber is certainly a jumbo of its race, but is only a specamin of what grows when you plant the seed in Flatwoods soil. o o o “The Colonel,’’from no.icea [ul . lished by the pres*, is one of the cleanest ot legitimate eoirodies. and is brim full of sparkling wit and good humor, fne indications are this afternoon, that Romans realize it is “a really g >od show” and they are going to see it at Nevin’s tonight. o o o “Do you know,” remarked a leading cotton man to me this af ternoon, “that the mill men of England and many of the mill men of New England have decided to allow only 74 yds. jute bagging to the bale on cotton?” 1 did’nt know it and I dont suppose the cotton planters of this section know it eyether. For if they had heard it they certainly would not be wast ing any extra yards of bagging on the already to a cheap product of their fields. o o o Lanham & Sons have one of the prettiest oil heaters I have yet seen. It is based on a beautifully nickleu electrict lamp and as an ornament would grace Col. Any body's parlors. It’s brand is the “American World’s Fair heater’ and —its a Worlds fair peater in the way of a small bed-room con venience. 000 Supern'enJent G.
