The polico having received notice that a gang of colored men were gambling in tho woods near Mr. Perrin's grove. Policemen May and Austell went down and caught thorn in the act. They succeeded in capturing seven of tho gang, and have since learned that others were iuto it. They hava an eye open for the others, and will, no doubt, run them in later. This was a good haul, and will possibly have the < fleet of put ting a check on this gambling rmong the negroes. ?? To the Ladies! What, arc our ladies doing for prohibition? Wo eee by tho papers that at almost all of the State campaign meetings the ladies are showing their interest iu this m< st important movement, by their kind reception of our prohibition candidate, Col. Iioyt, by their cheers, bouquets, banners, etc., etc. Surely our Union ladies aro not less interested iu the future weal or woe of their husbar.ds, sons and brothers. Lot some lad/ take tho initiative and prepare for a grand re ccpt:on at the grounds of the speaking of our prohibition candida'e, Col. Ja8. H. Iioyt. His war recoid, his record as a citizen, and as a pure christian gentleman, fully able to fill tho govcrument chair, merit all that may be done for liia pleasure on the day of the speaking, August 1st, 1900.

Dr. Key tells of his vieit to Union, and in speaking of tho recent pr jtraietfcd meeting at tho First Baptist church in Uuion in which the Doctor assisted the Rev. L. M. Rice, he says: "I epent ten days in Juno with Bro. Ii. M. Rico at Uuion. The night congregations were uniformly large, eavo when reduced by the rains prevailing at that time." The people evidenced genuine interest in the meetings Rnd many were strengthened for service. I bolieve I never befo.e I.. pi t.aVyllCV* DU 1UAUJT DC 1 U1WUO 111 C UV/VCO sion with the same degree of personal ei j ?yrucnt. Pastor Rice is a very industrious worker and as tactful as he is tireless. Ho adapts l.imself to the second church with its factory mem lurship quite as readily as to the members of the first church. He has greatly unified and built up tho Baptist cause in Uuion. One of his leading members told mo that ho had not a single criticism to pass on his pastor. The new house of the second church is a largo and attractive building, and it is often filled to overflowing. Baptists in Uuion are growing in number and influence and have a a bright future." Before the Mayor. The Mayor's Court did a brisk business Monday. The seven negroes caught gambling in Bill Tucker's house were each fined $5.00 nnd ci s's or 10 days. Five of I hem came down with tho dough. Lou Twilty, a notorious cbaract;r among tho ncm her of tho same ilk who disgrace our town, was up bifiro the Mayor and was flood $5 00 or 10 days. She, like all tho rest, to- k the days. It seems to be a picnic to thrs) notorious w >men to be sent to jiil and it has about r.s much c-llect upon them as a shower of rain upon a duck.
