CHARMING AMY LEE
in Lotta’s Famous Success
"Pawn Ticket 210" Will be
Served Rome's Theatre
Goers Tomorrow
Night.
The- Christinas attraction for
this y«ar is one of m;re than ordi
nary interest.
Amy Lie comes in Latta, old
success Pawn Ticket 210,
This is a,drama of intense interest
and the Company surrounding
Miss Lee is one of the most capa
ble ever gathered together.
Frank Doane, wh> assunais tin
character of Mautague Fiasti, is an
exceptionally pleasing C >mylian
and the character of Flash being
one'iu which pure Armenian chock
s the chief characteristic, gives
him a splendid chinca to display
his ability.
“Paw j Ticket 210 is one of the
star attractous of th i season and
will recive liberal support. Cer
tain it is that Rome theatre goers
should not miss a chance tosi« an
actress so much like the late Pat
ti Rosa as amy Lee.

For the New Years attraction
little need be said for the names
are enough in themselves to assure
a good attendance.
Mrs. James Brown Potter and
Mr. Kyle Ballew form one of the
very strongest combinations on the
American stage t >day.
Probably no actor of one half
the reputation or recognized abali
ey of Mr. Ballew, has ever had any ,
thing like the vareid covern, he
has been almost every thing—sol
dier, explorer, chorsten, actor and ]
many other things. Coming from ]
the works of the English nobility, j
he has had exceptional advantages ]
and has indulged his whims when- ,
ever fancy dictated
A curious little habit of hisstill j
olings to him as evidence of a chap- .
ter or his past life. i
The way in which custom by de- ]
grees becomes habit is curiously j
illustrated in the manner in which <
Kyrle Bellew drops his eyes or (
turns away his head whenever pass
ing a woman in the streets. The .
reason is as curious as the fact. ,
M. Bellow was for some time a
student in the Monastf'y of the
Redemptorists in London, and the
custom inculcated there has nev
er forsaken him.

These two show's are offered to
Romans for Christmas and New
years. Two such shows as these
should be most lib -rally suppor

CHINESE HIGHBINDERS.
A Reign of Terror in Mongolian
Quarters of San Francisco*
San Francisco, Dec 22, —Chinese
highbia ders have inaugurated at
reign of terror in the Mangolian
quarters. The bandits, many of
whom are ex-oonvicts, who have
escaped the deploration clause of
exclusion act, driven to desperation
through poverty, and burglaries
robberies, shootings and stabbings
are of baily occurenca.
Chinese women of the worst class
and small traders are the most fre
quent victims of the higbmders
who are pillageing right and left.
lhe Mongolian police force em
ployed by the six companies are
apparently afraid of the highbind
ers and even with the civic police
tueu are unable to stem the tide of
crime raging in their district.

Ben was the steer. He was a great
■ m-ek-eyed, docile linking fellew,
but it was a case where appearan
ces were decidedly deceiving. There
wasn’t a horse or mule in all the
[country around that could beat
j'Ben in a square fair trotting match,
' and he was as skittish as a young
I colt. \\ dll do I remember those big
limpid orbs that could look at you
as softly and tenderly as a sweet
heart, but my, you couldn’t build
a fence high or strong enough to
■ keep him out of a field if he took
[ a notion he wanted to go in it.
Bens besetting sin was his tenden
cy to run away under any and all
circumstances. It is about this
special trait that I wish to tell a
story.
One day the doctor sent his two
boys, Toni and Jerry with Ben and
the wagon to the mountain just
back of the house, for a load of
rails. It was a pretty steep incline,
and a narrow road wound up to
the summit. The boys left the
steer standing in the road, while
they proceeded to bring the rails
fr*m the woods, where they had
been split, and place them on the
wagon. They had a biglut of rails
on, and had just gone for the last
two, when Ben had decided he had
waited long enough. Off he started
at break neck speed down the steep
mountain, leaving the boys stand
ing in the road stupified wit'i
amazement.
As the terrified bovine continued
on his mad career, rails drop pel
by the wayside like autumn leaves.
When he finally reached the farm
house in the valley below, his side g
were steaming and his breath came
in sharp gasps. On the wagon was
one solitary rail. Far up the moun
tain side rails Jay at intervals from
top to bottom. The boys came in a
little later, mad as nornets, and
Ben was placidly nibbling grass by
the front gate.
“Today is Friday and we are all
having a quiet day of it,” said a
prominent merchant the other eve
ning. “But you may notice it in
branches of trade, and at any time
of the year, and Friday will always
prove a dull day. I have been in
the merchantile business many
years, and I have paid particular
attention to this fact, and I never
knew it to fail. In the big cities
merchants always take that day for
straightening up and replenishing
stock. Saturday and Monday are
the busy days now. Time was when
nearly all of the trading was done
on Saturday, but the custom is
gradually shifting around to Mon
day. ”
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Rawlins
were the recipients a few days ago
of a Christmas present which they
value very highly. It was a beau
tifully bound volume from their
mutual friend Mr. Edgar L. Wake
man, the distinguished Chicago
writer. The volume was bound
with loose sheets on which were
pasted forms from the pen of Mr.
Wakeman. In the front was a
splendid picture of the donor, and
written on the blank page just op
posite was, To Mr. and Mrs. Har
ry Rawlins, with best wishes from
their friend Edgar L. Wakeman.
The forms are all selected from
the best of the writer’s composi -
tions, and no gift could be more
highly appreciated by Mr. and
Mrs. Rawlins.
I stepped into the Central Hotel
the other morning, and after look
ing over the register, carelessly
closed it.
Say for heavens sake dont close
that bosk. said Johnnie Root, the
genial clerk excitedly.
It startled me for I could not
' imagine what in the world I had
done to cause such an outbreak.
So I proceeded to inquire into the
whichness of the wherefore.
: ‘-Why man, dont you know that
: it is the worst luck that can hap
: pen to a hotel to close ths register.
I have never known time when
bad luck failed to follow a hotel
after shutting a register up. There

I saw that the Telephone patent
had expired and I thought what a
great seller it would be at a low
price. I saw the advertisement of
W. P. Harrison & Co., Columbus,
Ohio, in your paper. They had just
what I wanted—a Telephone just
like the rich city business men
have, and I have been selling them
for two menths and have made as
high as $50.00 per day when I took
a large contract, and never less
than $5.00 a day, selling the Tele -
phones. I sell them outright, there
is no royalty. Everybody wants
them. Anyone can put them up,
and 1 believe they are the greatest
convenience and the best seller on
Earth. Anyone can make big mon
ey who can sell goods at all. So
many young men are out of em
ployment now, I fsel it my duty
to bring my experience before the
