Interesting News Item's from That Thriving Suburb. PERSONAL, GENERAL AXDISOCIAL -—— i 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. Saint Otis. Try it.

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. -t-Harry Shartle> I have sold out my photograph gallery to Air. J. W.
