Yesterday was thanksgiving and many a proud gobbler gobbled his a«t in the cold dawn. But I dare say that no one sat down to a bet ter dinner than I did in the Arm strong hotel. At the cordial invi tation of Dr. Marshall, myself and Montgomery Folsom sat down in the spacious dining room of the hotel. And for a while we reveled in a feast fit for the gods. But to give you an idea of thei good th’Dgs Dr. Marshall and his' able assistants set before their | guests, just look at the menu. But ' 1 wish to say, as hungry as we were, F-Isom and I did not call 1 for every thing herein set forth.! Anyway feast your eyes on this! list, as we feasted on many of the ' things yesterday.

The work was executed by Miss Sanky But ler, the aclornpiished artist and elocutionist of Cave Spring They are reallv wotka of art, and were gratly admired by the larg num ber of guests who dined there on the yesterday. It was a dinner long to be remembered 1 My chief is iu Atlanta to-day. aud this is my opportunity for revenge. In my breast hae long | smouldered a keen desire for just such an occasion as this, and* now that it ba < coma I may well be ex cused for gloating over it. The ex pose of a huge j ke on the editor of the paper, may mean utter anni hilation to me when he returns.' But the die iscast, my opportunity is here—and here goes. It will be remembered by ti e public that when I was in the Tri bune’s staff, 1 sent a “special” tc the paper from Reesburg, relating the incident in the brilliant but me teoric career of the mexican lion. The blood-curdling narrative of the doings of that sanquinan beast in the quiet, rural districts of Floyd county, called down upon mv inoffensive head many cutting remarks from Phil G. Byrd. In fact he was cruel enough to insu mate that the story was a “fake” pure and simple. Now that was the hardest blow of all, and I secretly vowed attle time to “get even” someday. 1 hepe the reader will ex cuse this personalism, but it is necessary in order to clearly un derstand why I “hanker arter” the Captain’s (Beg pardon Colonel!) scalp. Now we get down to the real sto ry Those who went to the opera bouse last Monday night to see the ‘Si Perkins”company will remem ber that a small wire ran from one corner of the stage entrance back to rear of the gallery. On this wire 111 hang the g-nttemen’s scalp. Now everybody knows what a prac tica'. joker John Chib’s is. Well John was the man who laid such a neat trap that Phillip tumbled into without a nit of hesitation. “By rd,do you see that wire there?’ said Joh'- r tbe joker. “Yes” answered th? victim with considerable interest, as he had been wondering ail the evening what the deuce it was for. “Well, that was placed there tn improve the acoustics of the house If you will notice you cinh? r tnucn t«e ter than usual, don’t you think so?” “Its so. I can hear muc i more distinctly than heretofore. It c?r ainly improves the acoustics very materially.” They discussed the matter a long while, and the Captain (beg pardon again, Colonel) didn’t know bow he Lad been “played” until several p ities to whom Childs had imparted the joke, guyed him next day. It is a well known fact that many wires strung in a building will improve the acoustics, but of course that one wire didn’t. Messrs. D. W . Curry and Blount I Hamilton went up to Trion Facto ry yesterday and returned list night, with a bag of rear sixty plump quails They had a splen < i ; day out. and both enjoyed it immensely. Dr. Curry is a great sportsman, and delights in noth ing more than to get out on a fine day, when the whirr of the quail is heard on all sides Rome has a large number of good shots, and; they go to the country frequently and bring back plenty of birds. Dr. G. M. Corput. the young vetinary surgeon who recently came here from Atlanta, is building up a splendid pi act ice. He is a thor ough gentleman and has made numbers of friends in Rome. Dr. Corput graduated from the I'ni versify of Pensylvania, as a veteri narian, and for a while located in ' Atlanta, but some months ago de cided to come here. It has proven a wise move, though he was slight ly discouraged at first. He told me that his first months work in Rome amounted to about $22. This month it will be near ten times that much. It shows clearly that he is fully posted in his business, and that people are finding it out. He is a welcomed addition to the city. Mr. J. W. Lancaster, Rome’s brag photographer is turning out some very fine work now. He re cently made a splendid group pic ture of the class of young ministers admitted to Conference on trial. Mr. Lancaster’s photographs com pare favorably with the work of t e best artists in the country. He is thoroughly alive to his business, I and is always up to new develop ments iu his line. If you want realy good pictures go to Lancasters for he can make them for you. INCENDIARIES IN ALA. Bloodhounds Run Down a Fireburg Who is Now in Jail. Gadsden, Ala , November 28.
