Mayor's Court,
John Renwick and Rosa Johnsot
colored, were up before the Mayor las
Thursday night for disorderly eonduci
It seems from the evidence that th:
couple have been causing considerabl
annoyance to their colored neighbors b
'.heir conduct, John is a married ma
but R osa is not his wife. When it cam
down to the specitic charges of Tuesda
night, Nov. 18th, however, the witness*
got all mixed up on dates, and no dire*
evidence was adduced, so the verdit
of not guilty was rendered. M<*. D(
Pass represented the defendant*. Th
Mayor's court att?acts almost as large
crowd as the circuit court. Almost a
cases are tried by jury.
Field's and Hanson's Minstrels.
Th* minstrel troupe that showed I
the Opera House Thursday night, la?
weak, gave a very creditable perforin
ance and were very liberally appla\:de
by thoRe present. There was a goo
audience notwithstanding tho fac
that the big banquet was going on t
tho New Century, and a large per cent
of the theatre goers were present a
the banquet, many of them tried t
take in both, but it was too much t
do and they only got about half c
each. The minstrels will no dout
draw a good house when they nes
appear in our town. There are twer
ty o^d people in the show. Wear
glad to see that, our our Opera Hon?
manager is catering for first clns
shows. While Union has tho repute
tion of being a poor show town w
think she would give very liberi
patronago to first class troupes. Th
town is getting to be large enough t
attract good shows.
Dan Packard Opera.
This opera company showed WeJne!
ilav night of last week (notice crowe
out) to the largest audience eve
seen in the opera house outside of com
mencement occasions It is a first ela?
show and no doubt the finest of tli
kind that has ever visited Union. Thei
are some thirty members of tho troup
and the cap:tc;ty of our stage, oven sine
its enlargement was tested to its utmo^
capacity. The singing was good uad th
"Mascot" was enjoved very much b
the lovers of tho opera. The troup
stopped at the New Century Hotel am

before when they recognized the fact thu
Dan Packard, the leading character, h e
laid off and put up a substitute to via
his part. We hope he will not throw oJ
