o It ran to Main street and came near
running into ttypith's and Nicholson's 1
front windows. The harness broke and
>t the wagon was left in front of Graham
j & Kates' store, while the horse dashed ,
? on across the railroad and throusrh the
lumber yard, very near causing a runaway !
of Bailey's team. The horse ran through
d the porch at the Qipbes House and in
o attempting to jump'the fence hie feet j

A Town Clock.
Union needs ? town clock lurtlj.
When the beautiful Bank Building whj>
erected a place was arranged in the utli
tower for a town clock. We wtrc
hopeful that one would soon be put
there, but the matter has been delayed
for years. We would welcome an effort
on the part of some one to have a clock
put there which would strike the hour-.
It would be a great help to the citizen*
of the town, aud if necessary we believe
a subscription con Id be raised to supplement
tire appropriation of the city couuctl
for that purpose.

The You a ft Man and Hia Wife.
The Raptlst Church was filled to its
utmost capacity Sunday night, mostly
by young people of both sexes to hem
Mr. Rice discourse on the subject of one
nfhisseiies of sermons, "The Young
Man and His Wife." If the congregation
continues to increase at this rat*'
standing room will be at a premium
Mr. Rice's talk was very interesting and
Miitertaining. His subject for next Sunlav
night will be "The Young Man and
Citizenship." This series of sermons
seems to be arousing considerable inter
est among our young men esp"cially.
The subjects are very intereslng ones
and Mr. Riee is a very forceful speaker
and gains the earnest, attention of his
hearers at the beginning and holds it to
the end.

A Mad Scrape,
For several months past one of our
iolton buyers baa been receiving notice
iJutt his cotton was weighing up abort at
lestinction. As he shipped by weights
furnished by the sworn cotton weigher
it this plaoe, he could not understand
the shortage. He began to look around
for the trouble, and on Saturday he
noticed a negro with an empty basket
going to the ootton weigher's platform,
and decided to watoh what be did, two
spotters secreted themselves on the cotton
platform and caught the negro in
the act of pulling cotton from the bales
The negro was allowed to fill his basket
and start off with it when be was aimsted
and carried to jail. It developed
that he was going to sell the ootton, lie
said he was told to do it by the cotton
truok band, John Palmer. An investigation
followed, showing that Palmer
had been selling a quantity of cotton to
the mattress factory, claiming to have
picked it up as waste cqttqn, sending
tickets with wpight and his signature foi
which be received the money. John was
arrested and put in jail where be implicated
the ootton weigher, saying that,
they were both in the mess. The books
at the mattress factory showed that the
tickets before Christmas did liave the
ootton weigher's name signed to them,
and the total amouut sold up to Christmas
was some 800 pounds. The stealing
baa continued until the total amount
runs up u> some r,ouu pounds, aa shown
by the books at the factory. The oottnn
weigher was approached bV the father ot
John on Monday and tbld that he must
get the t^iug settled up or he would
have' him arrested. Mr. Turner, the
weigher, found out what amount it
would tafce to settle it. The negro'*
father said he would get up half if Turner
would get up the other half. Turner
told him to go to Sartor's oorner and
wait Ave minutes and he would get up
the money and oome to him. The negro
went and waited some hours but Mr.
Turner did not show up. A warrant
for his arrest was taken out and the
Sheriff failed to And him at his home and
he has not been seen since. The uegro
is out on bond. This Is a very bad soraps
for a white man to t? miasd UV U>.

THE TABLET OF LIFE
(Pilula At Lomgan Vitam.)
The Scientific Discovery of the Age
The Magic Key to the Mystery of Life!
From times Immemorial it has been man's
predominating ambition to *prolong life- Rut
among the many brilliant minds, who have
devoiod their Uvea to the fascinating- subject,
it was left for the immortal Darwin to give
to the world, in his great theory of Life, the
fundamental principle upon which to build
all further research in this direction. Following
closely in his footsteps oamo Prof. Dr.
Ludwlg lluochner, a Oerman scientist of international
renown, with his remarkable
work entitled "Das liuchdes Langcn Lebens"
(the book on longevity). Rut alas, like Darwin
ho too died, ere be could reap the fruit
of his wonderful doctrine. Others howevor.
equally great took up tho interrupted thread
with tne result that two Oerman scientists,
alter years of experiments and research, have
at last discovered the secret of Longevity,
In the shape of a remarkable Vegetable Compound,
which,lf properly used, will positive y
prolo g Life. This new remedy, appropriately
named Longavita" (meanitg Long Life) has
been subjected to the most rigid tests stall the
leading clinics and hospitals throughout
Kurope with marvelous results. Appreclat
Ing the importance of this discovery, we
have acquired, at enormous edit, the exclusive
proprietary right'to this truly wonder
tul preparation, whieh has proved a blessing
to mankind. "Longavita" is the true Tablet
of Life; a rejuvenator par excellence, ombodying
the veritable secret qf longevity in
a practical, feasible form. It is the fountain
of perpetual youth, which it prolongs far
beyond its present limits, while retaining
health In a perfectly normal state. "Longavita'*
brightens the eye, stimulates the men-i
tal activity, gives elasticity to the step,
makes the face full, absorbs wrinkles,
cleanses the system, purlfles the skin, and is
the only true Fonoe de l.eon remedy for old
and young of both sexes. Endorsed by Europe's
leading pyaloians.
