Il. R. WILSON
IS LOCATED
Is in a City in Southern
California.
ENGAGED In BUSINESS
He Assigns no Cause for His
Departure.
His Fsther, Harvey Wilson, Today
States That the Rumor in Cir
culatiOn is Correct.

Earl r. Wilson, the former promi-
nent business man, whom many sup
posed TO have been killed in one of
the numerous wrecks which occur
red in February, 1907, shortly after
he disappeared from this city, has
been located at n city in Southern
California. Mr.. Wilson is not only
enjoying good health but is q sue
cessful hardware merchent.
A rumor that was circulated to-
day and coming from an authorita-
tive source was to the effect that
Wilson had been located. A Mirror
representative called at the home of
Harvey Wilson, Earls father, and
asked for information on the sub
ject. Mr.. Wilson replied that he
had nothing to say for publication.
Later Mr.. Wilson stated that the
rumor is absolutelA true and that
his son is alive and well and has
been successful in business. Until
very recently Mr.. Wilson had not
known of his sons whereabouts. At
that time he learned that his son
was located In southern California
and got into communication with
him. Since that time he has receiv-
ed several letters from his son. In
none of these has the young man
assigned q cause for his disappear
ance.
Earl r. Wilson was married in
February, 1906, to Miss Estelle Keg-
Ter. On February 10, 1907, after
closing out his hardware interests,
he left for st. Louis. ostensibly on a
business trip which would later take
him to Detroit He expected to re-
turn in about two weeks. When he
failed to return much alarm was felt
by his wife and relatives and friends.
As time passed and nothing was
heard from him it was feared that
he was among the unknown dead in
one of the great railroad wrecks
which occurred at that time
Mrs. Wilson believed that her
husband was dead She filed an af-
fidavit to that effect in the Probate
court and had a trustee appointed
TO take charge of Wilson's estate.
When interviewed this afternoon
after Mr.. Harvey Wilson had refused
to AXE a statement. Mrs. e. r. Will
son stated that she had heard Of sew
eral rumors that her husband had
been located but that she knew
nothing definite concerning his where
abouts She stated that while she
believed him dead until just re-
Gently she now was inclined to The
belief that he is alive.

Time IS THE TEST
The Testimony of Marion People
Stands the Test.

The test of time is what tells
the tale. The public soon finds out
when Misrepresentation are made,
and merit alone will stand the test
of time
Marion people appreciate merit,
and many months ago locel citizens
publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney
Pills; they do so stlh. Would a
citizen make the statement which fol-
lows unless convinced that the ar
ticle was just as represented? A
cure that last is the kind that every
sufferer from kidney ills is looking
for.
Mrs. L. l.. Holverstott, formerly
of 633 Perk Street, Marion. Ohio,
says: "Doan's Kidney Pills procured
at Flocken's drug store removed Il
lameness from my back and
strengthened my kidneys so that 1
no longer have any trouble from
these organs. The nervousness
sleeplessness and languor which has
DONutitu IlN M fhSO iNld iiN
after used this remedy No other
preparation ever used brought me
so much relief as Doan's Kidney
Pills"
The above statement was given
in October, 1899, and on June 25,
1904. Mrs. Holverstott added the
following. ~ am glad to confirm
my previous testimony and to state
thFt since used Doan's Kidney

The new management was highly
commended by those who saw the

There is little to the story and

, the best bits Of work OF the evening
was the singing of ''The Williams In

Carlton. Miss Cartoons work was
especially good in this ard in a
song and dance in the third act. On
the whole the entertainment provid
ed was thoroughly satisfa tory end
The majority of the musical selection

The performance did not commence
until $40 p. M. on account Of the

acts the company used It's own seem
cry, all of which was specially on
structed for this play. The ccstum-
