Two men from the country, possibly from the railroad carup3, came into town i Thursday morning and missed the guard somehow on the road They learned in the afternoon that they could not got out of town without a certificate. They said they knew they could. Later thoy started down the road, but the guard picked them up, and they had to come back to town and they both wero vaccinate'.! mid went their way rejoicing. Bid Fish Fry. 1 Siij>cr Ilix, Foreman Vice and some other gentlemen went to Neal's Should Saturday. They had sent the fish catchers on ahead, and when they got I there the fish, a large quantity of them, I had been caught and preparations were * being made to fry them. So while they did not get there in time to enjoy the I ho cathing they were in ample time for the fry and it is said that some of the 1 / late arrivals established a new record in ' the lish eating business. Big Awning nt the Racket. The New York Racket has just put up ont of the largest awnings ever seen in Union. It p-otects the fronts of both their department .ston 8. It is r?() feet long by 14 feet drop. Toe awning was put up by Mr. W.W. Coi'jier. It will furnish such a delightful plant to loaf this iummT. Now if Mr. Harry would just n o*e his goods on I lie inside and put rustic seats along in front of the windows, the gang would lie happy, but we have no doubt be will insist upon using the space with bis astonishing bargains, as usual. A Brave Little Boy. A heroic deed was done bv little Davis - Gladden, a colored boy, possibly ten years 5 old, Saturday. I)r. Torrence's horse was ? standing in fiont of his drug store, and becoming frightened at the cornet, band which liegan suddenly to play started to run, when this little negro boy who was hardly tall enough to reach the bridle -j rang in iront ol the horse and grabbed the bridle rein and swung to it until a .man got there and the runaway was nipl?cd in tlie bud bv this little boy. It wa< a brave aet on his part, ami lequired q considerable nerve to make the attempt. t Knitting Mill nil Right. G We find upon further investigation ill At the report of small pox on Knitting - Mill hill was a false alarm, and that the s investigation which followed developed the fact that none existed. The report P originated it seems from some of l heselu ol l? children saying that there weie a family of children living next to them who had it. It develops tl at a family had moved to the hill whose children had had the small pox some time ago, and 110 doubt that is what the child meant, but those who heard misunderstood and thought it meant the children lmd it now. We are very glad to learn that tlieie is 110 case on the hill, the case in "Ilappy IIollow" I being the nearest. m Hchl up at Depot. A iWr. Adam', or r^ancaster, wn^atnpli ptd at the depot here Friday, when h?v attempted to get a ticket for his home. He had never been vaccinated and wre e told that he could not get a ticket 01 n leave the town until he was vaccinated, h He had come over to Union a few days ? ago to get a job in the mill. He would not consent to be vaccinated and was not allowed to leave. He seemed very much afraid that he would lose his arm. if he was vaccinated. He said he and his 11 family depended upon his work for theii y daily bread. And he said in a pitiful i voice "what will become of mo and my family if I lose my arm." He walked off up street, and was seen in town late 11 in the afternoon, but he must have goi s out some way as he has not been seen since. m e Must Remain in the Family. s At tlie close of the war there was a lot ol ^ sib e - distributed among the soldiers o: the confederacy. The amount to each e of the soldiers was small, and was a verv ', poor remuneration for their services the c last pay day, but it was all that was ai hand to pay them with. Mr. John Sprouse, who lives at the Bald Bock, on i IVa Itiilge, was one of the soldiers to e receive a portion of this money. Capt. Fair, of whose company he was a mom!" her, delivered the money to the mmi at e Greensboro, N. C. Mr. Sprouse's share s was $1.15. lie brought the money hoin" s with him and put it away. In a conversation a few days ago Mr. Sprouse said: e "I have that $1.15 yet, and 1 intend to will it to my youngest child with Hast ipulation that it shall lie kept in tiefamily and handed down from generation R to geueialion."

Some men who would face a gun lose their nerve when the doctor tak^s up hi."" little needle to scratch the arm to put h in the vaccine virus. A man at tin . dt pot a few days ago finally screwed up ' courago enough to have his arm scratched. When he got his sleeve up his couragt 8 began to fall and he called for a chew ol e tobacco quick. lie said that he had heard that would counteract the pain, lie bit off a piece of tobacco in a nervous '' manner as if his very life was trembling in the balance, and began to chew hard y ax the doctor began to scratch with the a needle.

Parr was dressing Iter baby she felt something scratch her hand, iiikjii making an examination she discovered to her horror a needle, the eve of which win protruding from the child's back; she pulled it out and found it to be half an inch long and of a dark color.

How often it happens ilut the j innocent mam cmiurcn reel and sillier iiuil wo hive 110 idea of wir.it the trouble is. Razors in the Air. A row occurred in Poverty Flat Saturday evening between two colored women of unsavory reputation. The women got to quarreling and soon went together and when they did one of them whipped out a razor or knife and b'gnii to carve in the latest up-to-date fashion. She stabbed her opponent in 111" back of her neck and giving the knife ajsrk opened a slit about two inches long. She then made another "swipe" and the blade left a gap of an inch or more in the face. She then ran oil while the victim set up a terrible howl. The police took her to th Doctor who patch <1 h *r tip, while he went ou the trail of Un fleeing Am.17,111. She was overtaken before she got out of town and taken to the lock-up whete she can take her tim in repenting and speculating on futures. She seems to bj a late arrival from Asheville, and nameless so far as wo em learn. Her victual is one Mary Fair alias 'Dump."

From what we can learn there seems to I)-a determined resistance on the part of some people on Factory i I ill against vaccination. We cannot sec why they will persistently resent a measure that can only work for their own good and that of their familial and the community at large.
