last Sunday morning at the home
OF his brother, Wayne Mansfield,

for some time as salesman in Ed
Kirkland's Cafe and afterwards at
S. d. Woosley's in charge OF re-
freshment stand. He then went to
Gibbs and bought stand, being
engaged in business there when his
death occurred. He was of quiet
disposition, very attentive to bust
ness and esteemed by everyone.
This coupled with the fact that he
was of fine stature, pleasant and
intelligent in appearance made his
death seem strange and sad. The
deceased leaves another brother,
Bude.
The funeral and burial took place

ing by their unstinted applause how
strong hold this excellent COM
pany has gained in the hearts of
our theatre-goers. Miss Annette
Creighton made another decided
hit in a pleasing soubrette role.
Charles Creighton was as funny as
ever in the role of an old negro serv-
ant and the rest of the company
was we'll balanced. The play pro-
duced was "A Double Life, a melo-
drama in four acts that is replete
in startling situations and thrilling
climaxes with strong vein OF COM
edy running throughout, and from
the moment the curtain went up on
the first act until it decended on
the last held the undivided and at
times breathless attention of the
audience. The specialties were up
to the standard OF the four Creigh-
tons and that is saying everything.
Baby Susie Creighton, who is only
FIVE years old, in song and dance
proved herself to be wonder and
received an ovation. In conclusion
we can only express the wish that
it will not be long before the Ton
Stock Co. return to the city"

Will Wade, colored, was arrested
Sunday for bootlegging. Will keeps
a place on Depot street. The liquor
was sold last Saturday night and
Marshal Pardue caught the parties
in the act. He was standing in
sight without being observed and
saw Wade sell the liquor and take
the money. The negro who bought
the whiskey did not have the money
when he asked for the liquor, but
went out and came back with it.
Mr.. Pardue saw the entire proceed
ing and told Wade he had better
confess, which he did when taken
before the Mayor Monday. He was
fined $50. 1t is said that he has
license, and Marshal
Hawkins did not get him. Squire
Polk bound him over in $3.50 bond.

somewhat quarrelsome in his con-
duct toward Mr.. D. A. Luten, re-
sulting in the alteration between

Here in Union City, as in other cit

troubles are ensnaring victims In a
most insidious way.
Nearly every mothers son of US, and

we cannot abuse it with impunity.
How much better 1t would be to take
steps at once to strengthen the stom-
ach and prevent further trouble.
Use Mi-o-na now and soothe the irri-
tated walls of the stomach and
strengthen the gastric follicles so that
they will pour out their daily supply
of digestive materials with regular
ity. Then the headaches, sleepless-
ness, specks before the eyes, poor appe-
tite, tired feelings and nervousness
will disappear, aud you can eat what
you want at any time you like.
