CIRCUIT COURT.
Quiet Term Probability of Continu
ance of Nightrider Cases.
Judge Jones convened court l!fft Mon
day, with General Caldwell representing
the State, present. Business of no great
importance has as yet been transacted.
During the afternoon Judge Jones,
who is a candidate to succeed himself
as Judge of the Court, was called upon
for a speech and responded in a very
warm address of thirty minutes or more.
The Judge dwelt upon the enforcement
of law, and asked the people present if
they did not need protection from the
invasion of their homes by the mid
night masked assassin. He was loudly
cheered, and it is probable that his
speech met with general and hearty ap
probation. On Wednesday a small suit involving
the payment of premium on a fire in
surance policy was tried and judgment
obtained by the Union City Insurance
and Real Estate Company against A.
Harris for amount of premium.
The Nightrider cases will not be called,
any of them, until next week, and it is
the general opinion that they will then
be continued.

L. Williams, foreman; J. B. Minter, J.
S. Adams, John Luker, C. D. Burner,
Walker Elam, R. E. Switzer, W. L.

Leased Building.
The plans and specifications for the

completion by Nov. 15. The Farmers
Exchange Bank has leased the north
section for a period of five years, the
articles being signed this week. The
building will be located on the corner
of First street and Washington avenue
and the corner section will probably be
occupied by the Red Cross Drug Store.
The Baptist Church.
Services at the Baptist Church next
Sunday morning and evening, pastor
preaching at both hours. Morning
subject, "Lessons from the Ascension."
You are invited to attend these services,
also the Sunday school at 9:30. '
Band Concerts.
The Union City Concert Band has
completed its series of summer con
certs, and will probably continue its or
ganization until after the fair. The
band has been greatly enjoyed this
summer. There has been a larger at
tendance altogether probably than dur
ing any year of its organization, and
people generally have begun to realize
the fact that it would be a great mis
fortune to be without the concerts. It
is therefore certain that the band could
be maintained with much less trouble
next year, and wo trust that efforts will
be made to secure the organization for
another year. Not only so, but that
arrangements will be made for even a
larger band. Union City people do not
want to do without the music.
WORK THAT TELLS.
Plenty of It Has Been Done Right
Here in Union City.
Cures that last are cures that tell. Tq
thoroughly know the virtues of a medi
cine you must investigate the cures and
see if they prove pernianont. Doan's
Kidney Tills stand this test, and plenty
of proof exists right here in Union City.
People who testified years ago to relief
from backache, kidney and urinary dis
orders, now declare that relief was
permanent and the cure perfect. How
can any Union City sufferer longer
doubt the evidence?
A. G. Allmond, 904 East Churchill
street, Union City, Tenn., says: "I
doctored and used remedy after remedy
during my tlTirty years of suffering, but
nothing did me any good until I used
Doan's Kidney Pills. I had a constant,
dull aching across the kidneys and the
kidney secretions were sometimes too
scant, and then again profuse. When
I commenced to use Doan's Kidney
Pills I was in a bad way, but this remedy
helped me right away, and soon cured
me." (From a statement given in
1903.)
A PERMANENT CURE.
On May 13, 1907, Mr. Allmond said:
"I am still enjoying good health and
am free from all kidney aiiments. "
