From DeS Arc.

Another circus show has come and gone
and Des Arc is minus several dollars. Thes
show fellows seem to be hard set; the,
treated our hotel proprietor, Mr.. Barne,
Brewington, very shabby. In the first plac,
two sharpers came the night before and stop
| ped at the hotel, and when they went to pa,
their bill the next day, while Mr.. Brewing
ton was making change for them, they stole
five dollar bill from him, and when The
showmen went to settle their bill some oil
| them claimed they had paid, etc, and they
| beat the lanlord out of several dollars, and
| they did not even show what they had with
them, let alone one-fourth of what they ad.
vertised.
The Ironton base ball club played the Des
Arc boys Saturday. The Ironton boys came
out victorious IS to 10. The Des Arc boys
think The umpire leaned little in some OF
his decisions, or, in other words, decided a
little in the Ironton boys favor. Still they
are willing to give the boys another round
and will send them another challenge soon.
There were good many spectators out and
everything went off nicely and quietly, but af-
ter the game was over that night they tapped
two kegs of beer, and some of the boys got
little lively, and, as the local was late, some
of them went off soon after the game was
over. We noticed Bro. Cundiff among the
Ironton boys, but he did not make himself
known 10 all of US. Our friend Walter Nall
was also along. One of the most popular
young men Ironton ever produced.
/ am real glad and hope that the Des Arc
festivities are over, as our town has been in an
uprOar for three or four days, with picnics,
barbacues, base ball and circus. We tried
TO hold revival meeting in the Baptist
church last week, but it was no go; every.
thing you could hear was base ball or circus;
consequently they beat the preachers out
and they went home disguised.
Geo. w. Morris has gone to the city and

We have just learned with deep regret and
sorrow Of the death of our old friend, Judge
Jno. w. kemper. He died to. day, August
2Gd, at ] O'Clock; he was good neighbor
and highly respected by all who know him.
He served with distinction through the Con-
federate army and rose to the rank Of major
for his gallantry on the battle fields. Since
the war he has been elected twice rs justice
and once as county judge, and, at the death
of Judge Clarkson, he was appointed judge
by Gov. Francis. This Office he filled salts
factori!y until his death. This is the third
county judge we have lost this year. Some
thing rather singular. He will be buried
with Masonic honors on Monday evening
near Des Arc. Peace to his ashes.
Now, that Judge Kemper is dead causes a
vacancy ~ judge. We, therefore, recon.
mend w. T. O'Neal as young, energetic, and
full Of business. ISAAC.

Music Of the Spheros.

The origin of this everyday phrase
sufficiently interesting to even bear re.
telling to those that already know it.
Pythagoras, the Greek philosopher, while
experimenting On the vibrations of tight
drawn strings, discovered that strings OF
certain lengths produced certain notes.
He then illogically connected the seven
planets known at that time with musical
notes for the reason merely that the
radii of the seven spheres, in which, &C.
cording to then existing notions, the
planets were set, were Of unequal length
and therefore CD produced different notes.
These notes he dubbed the Emusic of the
spheres" This music was not supposed
to be caused by the friction of the spheres
in the sockets in which they were set, as
is now currently thought, but was pro-
duced by the vibrations of their unequal
radii.-New York Recorder.

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering and
painful sickness to robust health marks an
epoch in the life of the individual. Such a
remarkable event is treasured in the mem
DRY and the agency whereby the good health
has been attained is gratefully blessed.
Hence it is that so much is heard in praise
of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe
their restoration to health, to the use Of the
Great Alternative and Tonic. If you are
troubled with any disease OF Kidneys. Liver
or Stomach. of long or short standing you
will surely find relief. by use of ElectricBit-

Serious Danger

Threatens every man, woman or child living
in region of country where fever and ague
is prevalent, since the germs of maarial dis
ease are inhaled from the air and are swal-
lowed from the water of such region. Me-
diciaal safeguard is absolutely necessary to
nullify this danger. As means of fortify-
ing and acclimating the system so as to be
able to resist the malarial poison, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is incomparably the best
and the most popular. Irregularities of the
stomach, liver and bowels encourage malaria;
but these are speedily rectifed by the Bit
tiers. The functions of digestion and secre-
ton are assisted by its use, and vigorous
as well as regular condition of the system
promoted by it, Constitution and physique
are thus defended against the inroads OF
malaria by this matchless preventative,
which is also thorough and certain remedy
in the worst cases of intermittent aud remit

Deafness Can't be Cured.

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an inflamed condition of the mu-
eOus lining of the Eustrachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred dollars for any
ease of Deafness, Caused by catarrhl that
can't be cured by taking Halls Catarrh
