The Orphans Fair.

Last night Turn-Verein Hall was
again crowded with friends of the or
phan. Contributions were made lib
orally, thanks to the enterprising
young ladies who did the talking. The
ladies ut the postotfice, ice cream
stand, the scales and flower stand were
advocating their respective depart
ments in the most winning manner
The music from Mad. Franzini, Miss
Seaman, DR.. Fernandez Prof. Arevalo
and Mr.. Guenette was of the finest
order, and Prof. Knell's piano accom-
paniment all that could be desired.
The great interest last night was in
the picture gallery. Here we found a
dress 24l years old, made OF the finest
brocade and In a good state of preser-
walton. A pair of slippers that were
danced in by Patrick Henry's aunt
were also exhibited. Several elegant
pieces of hair work as nice as crayon
work, the handicraft of Mrs. Anne
Ward, the mother of Mrs. Tiernan,
attracted great attention. The picture
of "The Giants Causeway" is a most
artistic affair and has been honored
with medal from the Worlds Fair
in 1851, and one from the Worlds Fair
at New York in 1858. 1t certainly de-
served it, and we recommend all visit
ors to look at these artistic works of
Mrs. Ward.
Tonight is the closing night, and
we hope to see full attendance. 1t Is
q worthy cause and we recommend
liberality.

DEAFNESS
. Permanently Cured.

On the 1st day of October / made
oath before A. w. Potts, County Clerk,
that 1 had been cured of deafness in a
short time by DR.. Aborn, at the Back
man House. As so many said my
hearing was only temporarily restored,
publish this card for the purpose of
informing all who are so skeptical that
the cure is permanent. Under DIR.
Aborn's treatment my hearing has
been entirely restored. My sore eyes
and graduated lids, with which was
greatly troubled, havealso been cured
by DIR. Aborn; and my general health /,
which was very much broken down,
has been restored, so that l now feel
better in every respect than have for
the past eight or ten years. l have
gained several pounds in weight, and
would cheerfully advise my friends, if
in need of medical aid, to consult Dr.
Aborn. JOSEPH WILD.

Probable Murder.

murder in the Anaheim Gazette:
A man named Robert Coffey, well
known in Anaheim, and who has for
some time past been employed by Mr..
G. B. Rawson, off the Miguel Rancho,
was found dead yesterday morning
near San Juan Capistrano. 1t appears
that he left Hers Hotel, in San Juan,
on last Friday morning, for the pur-
pose of attending fandango, which
was to be held short distance from
the town. Nothing having been heard
of him, q. search was made yesterday
morning, which resulted in the dis
covery Of his body in q bushy gulch,
about one hundred yards from the
house in which the fandango had been
held. His throat was found cut from
ear to ear, but nothing was discovered
which would give clue to the perpe-
traitors Of the horrible deed. The de"
ceased had sister living near Fort

THE NATIONAL GAME.

MUTUALs vs. ATLANTIcs RAIN STOPS THE
GAME
The Mutuals and Atlantics met on the Union
Grounds yesterday to contest the fourth game OF
their championship series. Barnie was subst-
tuted for Booth in tue Mutual nine, while Fleet
caught IN place OF Knowdeu on the Atlantic side.
Crane also resumed his position as first base man
OF the Atlantics and Tommy Barlo played second
Dase The Atlantics we're first to the bat and were
retired three times in succe ssion without making
q run or base hit. The Mutuas also tailed to
score. In tue third inning Matthews made
base hit and reached third on Paoors wild throw.
There he was lett by the weak batting OF Gbney,
Holdswortn ana start. Ram began falling during
the second inning, and, as IL continued without
intermission, Phelps, the umpire, called the game
at the end OF the third inning. The only error on
either SIDE up &c the time play was called was
made by Pabor, while good fielding was exhibited
by Nichols, Crane ana Moore, OF the Atiantcs, ana
Mailman and Gerhardt, OF the Mutuals.
T. b. y. U. VS.. FLYAwAYs.
Another disappointment awaited the patrons OF
the Capltolne Grounds yesterday, as the game
between The I. b. +. U. nine, Of Brtdgeport, and
the New York Flyaways was interrupted by the
rain in che second inning. Daily, late OF the WASH
ington Club, was the umpire, ana the game
opened with the Flyaways at the bat. Both sides
were BANKED IN the first Inning, but In the sec
ond inning The Flyaways made one run and mad
man on second base, with but one man out, when
the umpire was forced BIZ the rain to call the
game.
