An Expected Boom in Buildhng Cir
cles—The North Rome Higl [School—
The Need of Street Improvements—
Some Bad Crossings—The Elesire for
Annexation to Rome Widespread.
North Rome, March 13. —Rev. W. C
Sampler of the Fourth ward, has moved
his family to this place and is occupying
the Broach house on Kingston avenue.
Mr. T. B Broach, of Rockmart, was in
North Rome last Friday shaking hands
with his many friends who are always
glad to see him.
Mrs. W. S. Walker, of the Fourth ward,
will lecture at the Baptist church this
evening at 2:30 o’clock to viomen and
children only.
Mr. Alfred Hart has about recovered
from his recent spell of illness
It is rumored that negotiations are
pending for the sale of seven building
lots in this place, and the patties contem
plate building on them.
A regular old-fashioned “break-down”
dance was given at the residence of Mr
James Patterson several nights ago. A
arge crowd was present and a pleasant
evening was enjoyed.
The North Rome high school is onabig
boom. Fully eighty are now
upon the roll.
A movement is on foot to revive the
college project. Already SIO,OOO have
been subscribed towards it, aud a secret
organization in North Rome proposes to
raise the other SIO,OOO necessary.
The town council should place a bridge
over the ditch near the North Romo
depot, so as to open up the street that
leads from Calhoun avenue to 'he so. mrr
place. It would be of great convenience
to the traveling public, as it would com
pel the railroad to keep the thoroughfare
open, which is now constantly blockaded
and almost impassable.
The crossing at the intersection of
Kings on avenue and Chambers street,
near Quarles’ store is in a deplorable con
dition. A little expense wobld remedy
the evil.
A few prominent citizens are agitating
the idea of annexation to Rome. They
argue, that while application js being
made to the legislature F the
charter of the town sop \it the
right to change its nas/ ' ''(lie,
L. rfftioFporate nioi. ..n..., ~ .-t. niff
said proposed bill be drafted so as to
give the town the right to hi Id an elec
tion on the question of annexation, and
therefore, as there is going; to be a
change, let it be a final one. I
The idea is a practical one, for some
day, sooner or later this town will inevit
ably be incorporate 1 into Rome. Neces
sity demauds it, and it must come.
There is no use in talking about high
taxation; what will the public schools
save you alone? Then there is the fire
and police protection. Are they not
worth something to a community?
Another fact to be considered; there
will be a vast increase of population, and
of course, houses will have to be built
forthem. Won’t that give employment
to the idle workmen? Won’t it material
ly benefit this favored section of Rome?
This matter should be carefully con
sidered as it will redound greatly to the
benefit of Rome in many ways.

UNCLE SAM IN TEHERAN,
TRUXTON BEALE, V. S. MINISTER TO
PERSIA.
Mr. Truxton Beale, of California, whom
the president has nominated to be minis
ter of Persia, is the son of General Ed
ward P. Boale, of Washington, long a
prominent figure in the social and diplo
matic life of the capital and a personal
friend of General Grant. The minister
elect gets his first name from the family
of the famous naval officer Commodore
Truxton, and his nomination has met
very little criticism, apparently in Wash
ington. Among the recent ministers to
Persia, Mr. S. G W. Benjtmin and a Mr.
Winston, of Chicaga, have been promi

AT THE THEATER.
Lost in London at the Opera House
Monday Evening.
Newton Beers, the old favorite, will
visit Rome again next Wednes lay even
ing, March 18, and will present his
now famous production “Lost in Lon
don.” This beautiful drama is not a
new one, but the story is filled with an
interest that makes it enjoyable to all,
again and again, jast as we turn to some
rare book, by the old mas’ers, finding
each time some new interest, some
beauty which has escaped us before. The
play is a simple story of woman’s weak
ness and man’s devotion. The subjiot
is one that can be dwelt on as being
beautiful, instructive, and true to
life. It has remained for Mr. Beers with
his talent to bring this half forgotten
gem into prominence. Mr. Beers is a
powerful actor, and enlists the full sytn
pathy of the audience in his rendition of
the principal character in this grand old
play. Mr. Beers has an unusually strong
company this season. Among the old
favorites are Maria Wellesly, Kate Ro
main, Kate Woods Fisher, Henry Willis
and Fritz Henly, in the leading parts, and
these are well sustained by the balance
of the company. The Tribune hopes to
see a large crowd at the theatre Wednes
day evening to witness this admirable
performance.
