]. L. Cochran, who has been elected
Pictorial Representative from Dyer,

of the proprietors Of this paper yester-
day that he expected to stand by his

He said that he was opposed to the

yesterday, saying that he would oppose
the repeal of the Statewide Prohibition
laws or any part Of them; that he cared
not what the Democratic platform utter
ances were upon this question, he would
stand by his declarations if be had to
stand alone on his vote. Mr.. Cochran

Family Reunion.

A delightful family reunion was h
last Sunday at Poplar Wood, " the p.
latial home of Mr.. and Mrs. Owe
Walker, near Franklin. The guest O
honor was Prof L. H. Mullens, of CLAIR
endon, Texas. An elaborate dinner OF
many courses was served, and the table
was beautiful in its appointments. The
guest listincluded Mr.. and Mrs. w. w.
Mullens, Mrs. Mary Darden, Mrs. Har-
vey Eagan, Miss Louise Mullens, Miss
Vivian Eagan, Mr.. Lloyd Egan, of Nash
vile, Mr.. and Mrs. H. ]. Mullens, Miss
Annie Walker and Mr.. w. P. Mullens,
of Franklin. The inability of Mrs. j..
H. Zwingle, of Union City, to be pres

The Airship.

A contract has been made, signed and
closed with Mr.. Benoist, of st. Louis,
one Of the leading American aeroplane
inventors and patentees,. for one of his
celebrated airships in Union City during
fair week. Provisions have been made
for two or more flights every day of the
fair by well known licensed pilot and
aviator. =
Contract has been made for biplane
of the latest type, one of Mr.. Benoist's
best machines at a stipulation which
guarantees aeroplane demonstrations in
Union City as good as can be seen any
where in the United States. We make
these statements in order to show the
public that the Union City fair is not
undertaking to offer novice or an
amateur in aviation, or a machine Of
unknown construction, but one of the
best made.
There will be no attempts at flying
and dismal failures like those which
have heretofore been seen. 1t will take
a hurricane to keep the Benoist aviator
from making a flight, and the fact that
flights are guaranteed by Mr.. Benoist
gives the public positive assurance OF
successful flights at the Union City fair.
There will be two or more flights
every day, according to arrangement
and contract, and it is practically certain
that the fair will be attended by the
largest crowd ever seen here.
One of the greatest surprises of the
occasion may likely result in an aero
plane meet. Mr.. Swain, of the Swain
Show Co., writes that he wants to bring
an aeroplane with him when he comes
to Union City fair week, and that he
will join the Union City aviator in an
aviation meet at the fair grounds. The
Swain machine, however, is not q GER
tainty, but will be here if possible.
There will be also two good bands
which will be here to entertain the
crowds at the fair, and all these things
combined with one of the best county
fairs in the South makes in reasonably
certain that the biggest crowds ever in
Union City will be here at the fair.

Boarding House Change.

Mrs. Ella Edwards has bought Mrs.
RowIand's interests in the Harrison
street boarding house, and will soon
take charge and superintend its man
agement. Mrs. Rowland and daugh-
tiers are arranging to move to Missls-
sippi, where the young ladies will be
engaged in the millinery business. Mrs.
Rowland has been conducting one OF
the best boarding houses in the city,
and it is quite well established that
Mrs. Edwards, whose fame for cooking
and housekeeping is well known, will
continue to keep up splendid reputa-
ton for this house. We extend the
kindest wishes to all the parties, wish
ing them very we'll indeed.

The City.

The Board of Mayor and Aldermen
met Tuesday night with no unusual
business.
There was some discussion about the
sewerage connections. 1t seems that
some are draining their sewage in the
big ditch below town. Owners OF the
property have warned the city that IN
junction proceedings will be instituted
if these connections are not withdrawn.
The city has notified the parties that
thew must cease to use the ditch and
suggested that they connect with city
sewers. The matter has been neglected
and something must be done. Some
are also using old wells to the dlsad-
vantage of their neighbors and this is
an infraction of the ordinances. An
effort will be made to correct all these
things.

BABIES ALWAYS IN STYLE

baby is small person about which there is great diversity of opin- lon This Is because every baby Is considered perfect by the parents and a perfect nuisance by everybody else.
 There is really nothing new about the baby. It's institution dates back to the beginning Of the world. and at that time it was a garden production. The garden idea. however. is now ob- solete, and for many years the baby has been grown in the house. with early transplantings to the sunlight.
 Every baby has good voice. dis tinct resemblance to some rich rela- tive, and an afternoon nap. The voice is heard by everyone. but the resem- blance is heard chiefly by the rich relative. The afternoon nap is heard Of everywhere as being necessary to the baby, but sometimes the nap Is more honored in the breach than in the observance. After the nap the baby Is unable to understand why it should be expected to sleep again al night. and everyone else Is unable to understand why it should want to stay awake. The baby's decision, how. ever. always carries the day-or. rath- CT. the night
 There are millions Of babies, but only two kinds boys and gills. The hoy baby ia always the maternal ana | paternai selection for the presidential chair. and the girl baby is expected 10 some day become the wife of 8 gentle and loving millionaire who will do his best to appreciate Der
