This, the Unitanans deny. OF course

A Sad AtfliCiiOn.

The many friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
j. X. Summerville, of NATION, were
all grieved very much, when they
heard of the accidental fall which
crippled their beautiful little ten
year old girl, Mildred. 1t seems
that by slipping on the floor she dis
located her hip joint and was unable
to walk. They had hopes Of her
getting better, and did every thing
local medical skill couhl suggest
but all to no avail. Mrs. sumner
vile, as last resort, took her to the
osteopathic institute at Franklin,
KY, and we are glad to report that
she is gradually improving.

The show has appeared in Marion
upon several former occasions and
has always pleased our people. But
on this their fourth trip here, they
gave even better satisfaction.
The acts and features were sll new
and Of highly merlteous character.
The display Of wild animals was al
so interesting and worth seeing. The
old time policy Of this show is not
allowing any gamblers aud people
with fake issues To travel with the
show was again IN evidence.
This met with the hearty approval
Of our people. The result was that
everybody gave Sun Bros and their
aggregation 1.-THE glad hand Dur
ing the day not single arrest was
made and the local officers say that
II was the quietest aud best behaved
crowd that ever assembled in Marion
After night performance was con
cluded, the show quietly pulled stak-
es aud left over the | & road for
Princeton, where they showed on
Wednesday.
