PHILADELPHIA June 20.-The Athletics
were easily defeated by Boston this afternoon.
In the second inning Chamberlain, who was
playing right field, failed to get up to
Browns hy-a ball that would have been
taken by any ordinary fielder-and then the
visitors developed batting streak, knock
ing out seven hits and scoring five runs
after chances had been offered to retire the
side. Chamberlain succeeded Sanders in the
third, and pitched out the game in good
style. A marvellous one-handed catch by
Wood and great running catch by Cork
hill were the features of the game. At

of the Potomscs; Leach, of the Columbias, or
Wise, of the Light Infantry, would make
good material to use in home games as pitchers.
Sprigman, Ellis, or Boucher can give Hat
field points at short STOP while as fielders
Hauptman Caulifower or Kelly can play
around such men as Beecher. Here is some
good local talent, and while experiments are
dangerous in most cases it would not hurt the
Nationals to use some Of these players. With
Mcclure behind Winkleman or Leach 1t is
almost certain that better results would fol-

The Amateur Championship.

1t was stated last week that the Colum bia
had cinch on the League championship, but
on Friday the Potomacs defeated them, and
thereby again made the issue an open one be-
tween them and the w. l.. l. Corps The
contest on Friday was a brilliant affair, and
the Potomacs won a very creditable victory
from their rivals. 1t was a battle between
Winkleman and Leach, and the honors were
about equally divided, as both pitched mag
nifcent games. The catching of Rackey
and Wright was OF the star order, as neither
had a battery error of any kind. The Poto-
macs outbatted and outfielded the Columbias.
The fielding of Boucher and Rebstock and the
batting OF Kelly, Ellis, and Hauptman were
opportune, and generally resulted in runs.
Phil King, the well-known Princeton player,
made his first appearance with the G. A. G.
and did excellently. The score was to 3.

former ones. There will be singles for seniors

A FINE COUNTRY.
A Bird's-eye View of the Country Along
the Mineral Raj road.

The lands have advanced on the
south side from 200 to 500 per cent.
since the building of the Mineral
road was commenced and have al
ready anticipated the value to be
reached for some time to come.
Lands that sold from 80 cents to s. so
per acre are now held at So to $40
per acre.
The land lies in ridges and hollows
aud abounds in fine timber, great
forests of white oak, poplar, hickory,
red oak and walnut, that only needs
development to make that section
pour its wealth into the lap of Clarks-
vile. There is much good farming
land in that section. Along the hol-
lows and hillsides the land is very
rich, and the finest springs of pure,
cold water and ripping brooks are
found between every dividing ridge.
1t is magnificent country for stock
RAISING and truck-farming. All
grasses grow luXuriantly, while the
land produces fine tobacco, potatoes,
melons, etc. Along Leatherwood
creek, Dickson county, in the neigh
borhood of Batson's Store, there are
many fine farms under cultivation
and the people are prosperous Tom
Batson has 1900 acres. He went
there with $500 few years ago and
is now worth $4,000. Nelson Var
brough has neat farm and reads the
Great and Good; he says he couldn't
ct along without the LEAF-CHRoNI-
Gle; it makes his corn grow faster
and keeps down the weeds.
John Shelton has some splendid
farming land he, too, is land rich.
John says he is trying TO bring his
farm up, but he can't do anything
but sit on the fence and "cuss," and
from the looks of the land under Gull
tivation he was bringing it up in
that way.
Squire John Parrot has a splen-
did farm and a charming home,
with great springs OF pure, cold
water gushing out at his very door.
Everything about him looks thrifty
and prosperous.
John Hurst has a splendid place of
SIG acres in that vicinity, which he
lately purchased for $1,000, He has
had it cleaned up, fenced in with
wire and plank, fixing it for sheep
ranch and will soon have 800 head Of
sheep on it. This place has II fine
springs on it and a creek running
through the center of it, and there
are 300 acres of remarkably fine tim
her, The timber alone is worth
double the cost of the place.
If the people of GAINESVILLE want
to see this city boom let them go
about developing the country along
the Mineral road.

Hon. Horace Chiffon, the young
lawyer recently appointed by the
Alliance Gov. Hogg, OF Texas, to
succeed Mr.. Reagan in the Senate, in
a speech at Tyler the other day had
the following to say on the sub treas
ury bill:
"Concerning this scheme my duty
is plain. The constitution of my
country is against it, The platform
of the Democratic party Is against
it. Economy, business judgment,
good old corntield common sense, the
experience of the past, the hopes Of
the future, the unanimous warnings
of our great statesmen, all stand in
its way. If all these barriers should
ever be broken down, If folly should
ever rule the head and desperation
fold the ballot of this country, and a
trial should be given to that scheme,
our farmers will find that beyond the
depths of their present hardship
there is still deeper depth ia the
misfortunes of the condition pro-
duced by the collapse of c sub
treasury.
