Ajax has remained silent for the past
four weeks, from the fact that he had fond
ly hoped and wished to be able to give to
the readers of the JOURNAL that startling
news which would give to our immediate
vicinity that big boom" the like of which
Cobb county has never experienced, but
the scheme failed-the parties are dis
gruntled-the mining expert has returned
to the anthracite beds of Pennsylvania,
ana our coal still lies buried deep down in
mother earth, where possibly it will remain
as reserve to kindle the fire on the last
day when "Gabriels trump shall sound"
And all because the land owners cling with
death like tenacity to the surface and
will give no chance to men of means and
muscle to develope the hidden treasure,
for fear somebody may grow rich. Such,
however, is life, and few years rolls by
the old die, the young and more pro-
gressive "boy" will come to the front and
possibly then the earth will be forced to
give up her treasures, and our coal may
possibly be used for better purpose than
burning up world.
While our coal boom" has fallen fiat
we possibly have other things that may in
time prove greater benefit; viz: our
public school, which is now almost an as
sured fact, if l am to judge by the result of
our municipal election which occurred last
week. At mass meeting of citizens, a
ticket favoring a system of public schools
were unanimously nominated, and on the
morning after the polls had been open for
some time and many votes cast it was
found that one of the nominees was op-
posed to the school, an independent came
out and won the race over the nominee.
The officers elected were as follows:
Mayor-Hon. N. A. Moore.
Aldermen-L. W. Mizell, T. F. c, All.
good c. Q. Drennon, C. J. Shelverton, A.
Wadsworth.
Mrs. Jewell, wife of Rev. E. Jewell
pastor of Baptist Church, died Friday
night 18th inst, after long and painful
illness. She leaves husband, four daugh-
ters and two sons to mourn her loss. She
was true wife, devoted mother and
faithful and jealous Christian.
G. W. Hunnicutt and his estimable,
handsome and accomplished daughter,
Miss Sallie, and Mr.. w. w. Drake and
wife of Atlanta, spent several days last
week in our little city, the guest of the
Salt Springs Hotel.
W. R. Combs, Of North Carolina, is also
recuperating here for few days.
W. 7. Dozier spent few days in Rome
last week, and if he were to judge from the
noise the citizens make, the hill city is on
sure, steady and solid boom.

What came near being a serious aeei-

A heavy freight train had jast pulled out
from the Alexandria and Fredericksburg
depot and was ascending heavy grade
Just north of this city when the coupling
broke about the centre OF the train and
the rear section started back down the
grade at high rate of speed. As 1t
passed the depot Mr.. William West
sprang on it and succeeded in applying
the brakes in time to stop the cars before
they reached the freightyard at the head
of DIXIE street. Serious damage would
have occurred had the cars run into
others at the freightyard.
