A WIRE FENCE TELEPHONE
WANTED
“Down in Texas,” says an elec

view, “I think there is a good de
mand for a telephone that ca •
talk over miles of 1 a W wir-j
fence.
On the ranches cowboys are kept
‘riding the fence,’ that is, ridii g
up and down a section of barbed
wire fence, inspecting it and keep
ing it in order. M-ny ranches are
twenty, thirty, and fifty miles
square, and if a serious break in a
fence if found, the cowboy must
ride back to the ranch to report.
Now if a good telephone could
be provided for each section, it
would save all that riding. The
staples holding the two top wires,
to the posts could be removed, in
sulators put in their places, and a
man would have a complete metal
lic telephone circuit around his
ranch.”

THEHUSTLER OF ROME, TUESDAY OCTOBER, 23 1894.
LORENZO POWEL |
I
Lorenzo Powell, the slayer of
! Peter Teague, will be carried to
Dade coal mines to-day by Capt.
Bill Starnes there to seive out a
life sentence.
The history of the killing of
Teague by Powell is familliar to
the public, as it was fully chroni
cled in the papers at that. time.
1 There is • general sentiment among
'the better people of this city that
his sentence is too heavy, and the
extenuating circumstances »ur
rounding the ease does not justify
the life sentence of powell.
Lorenzo was employed in th®
Rome dej ot tor seven years and
bore a good reputation both withhis
employes and the public generally.
He was an honest, hard working
negro, and in the seven years
at the depot he never lost more
than seven days the entire time.
The last three years of his stay
there, he was not absent from his
post of duty a single day.
Powell is a heavy set negro, 31
years of age, and has a pleasant
looking face. He was familiarly
known as “Fatty,” and very many
people never knew him by any
other name.
Lorenzo was seen in the jail this
afternoon by a reporter and talk
ed freely about himself. He said:
“Yes sir, they are going io take
me away tomorrow, and you can I
imagine how bad 1 feel at leaving.!
I want you to say for me that
treatment in the jail has been of
the very best.
“Mr. McConnell and his son,
Raymond, havejbeen exceedingly
kind tome, and 1 feel nothing but (
| the deepest gratitude and respect
for them Mrs, McConie 1 also b 8
done many nice things for me and

fur what th-y have done in my b.-
half 1 have i< eigne Jto noy
lute and trust I shall be able to bear
myself wi'h fortitude.
It is m >re than possible that a
petition will be circulated asking
ihat his sentence »>e commuted. If
so many people wi 1 sign it,
