ROME.

Eds. Tel.-Some of our citizens were
treated to a serenade from the South New
Lyme band, on last Wednesday evening,
and all felt highly pleased with same. We
were surprised to see so much proficiency
in so short time. P E. Prayer, the lead
er, was bugler of Co. E, 9th O. V. Cav,
and promoted to regiment bugler. He
seems as much at his ease as leader of the
band, as when sounding the assembly or
the charge.
James Kelsey has taken charge of the no.
tel at Rome station. IfYou, Mr.. Editor,
should visit Rome, and feel yourself in
need of quiet, comfortable place to rest
and refresh the inner man, call on james
he will receive you cordially; while Mrs.
Kelsey is hard to surpass in the culinary
department. Then, there is Harvey Hill
and wife, at New Lyme station, not to be
forgotten. Surely, Rome need not be
ashamed of her hotels.
The potato beetle is making fearful raw
ages on our potato fields. They are depos-

W. c. Stiles came home last week from

Eds. Iei.-Our people are in very good
spirits over the fact that nearly all Of them
have their June instalment of tax paid
and that their chances are so good Ior
more than an ordinary yield from 'hel'
seeds, as things now look, it appears TO us
that this will be a year of easy tliles WIN
the producers. Cheese and wool have thus
far met with ready sales at extremely good
prices. everything considered. The yield
Of grass has been largely improved by the
rains. and if corn should turn out well,
owing to the large acreage, the quantity
Of feed will not be far below that Of last
year. Wheat generally looks we'll and the
Yield will far exceed that Of last year.

simply immense From Mr.. KimbalIs
half acre was yesterday gathered fifteen
bushels; they were readily sold at cents
a quart; the churches are using them free
ly for festivals. The Baptist festival fell
upon an unfavorable day, and the lawn
part of it had to be taken in; the gather
ing. notwithstanding, was large, and in
every point the thing was a success. Over
$50 was realized. The clearing up of Sat
urday evening led the friends to attempt
to carry out the original programme. The
park was lit with torches and Chinese Ian
terms, and the presence of the band made
the occasion both scenic and lively, and
the refreshments were of a very palatable
and ''sustainin" character. $50 more
were realized on this occasion.

The most interesting and best played
game Of the season played here, occurred
last Saturday afternoon, on the grounds
below the L. S. g. NJ. S. Ry bridge, be-
tween the Occidentals of Plymouth and
the Military nine, composed of members Of
the Infantry and Artillery companies.
The weather was all that could have been
desired, and as it was generally known
that there would be hard work on both
sides, large number Of spectators were
present. The Oecidentals are all excellent
amateur players, and the indications are
that they will maintain the reputation Of
the old Plymouth club of six years ago,
which, by the way. used to make it so live

Military nine possess just as good material
but they are greatly in need Of practice.

What They Think Of AnhtabuI. H.r-
81 bOr.

A representative of the TELEGRAPH in
conversation with captain of one of the
largest vessels On the lakes, asked him how
he regarded Ashtabula Harbor as port Of
entry. he replied :" it was one of the best
harbOrs on Lake Erie, and that the facili-
ties for unloading ore were far superior to
any other port" His vessel and the pro-
peller which tOws her bring in 1900 tons of
ore as their cargoes, and ne says they can
unload at the same cranes in a couple Of
days, but if they went to Cleveland it
would take three or four. The addi-
tlonal distance to Ashtabula-6O miles-is
not considered as anything when so much
time can be gained in discharging cargo.
