Marion County, Arkansas.

or course you have heard of Marion
County, Arkansas. You have heard that
It sent to the Worlds Fair at Chicago the
largest piece of zinc ore the world had
ever seen, weighing IL, 800 lbs. Ynu do
not know perhaps that the mine from
which it was taken was sold five years ago
for 500. and can not be bought TO day
fer 5000, 900, although 1t is rs miles from
railroad, you do not know perhaps
that there are many other zinc mines in
Marion county, now worth from 80, 900
TO $50, 900 that could have been bought
for from $l5 to $50 per acre, in an unde-
veloped state. You do not know, perhaps
that there has never been shaft sunk to
depth OF 80 feet anywhere in this county
without striking rich lead, zinc, copper or
marble. You co not know that experts
believe that paying ore can be found in
any part Of the county by sinking shaft
from 20 to 200 feet deep. You do know
that capitalists have bought up most OF
the zinc land and stand ready TO buy the
remainder as soon as railroad Is started
toward this county. You do not know
that such a road will be started this year,
and that mining lands will go out OF sight
as soon as the road is started. II you are
wise you will get ct least one acre of this
land before it is too late. When The read
comes you can either sink y shaft on 1t,
lease it, or sell il, and make from 100 to
10000 per cent on your investment |

BASE BALL.

The Lamberlville club, 10 the game OF
Saturday last, put up game of ball suct
as has not been seen on the A. A. grounds
this season. They seemed to put plenty
of vim and a large supply of Ginger in
their playing, and as result they COM
pletely overwhelmed their opponents, the
strong Tacony Club, from Philadelphia,
much to the delight of their many admir-
ers. Every one on the team played ball,
and owing to the brace up a different
result, l am happy to say, is scored. Let
the good work go on.
Pitcher Zeller for the first I'VE innings
had the visitors completely at his mercy,
not hit having been made up to that
inning, when short stop Mood came to
the bat and banged the ball square 10 the
eye, sending it skyward over the fence
for homer. It was the hit Of the sea-
son. The home club seemed to take
liking to pitcher Eaylor's lbs, outs aud
curves, and every man on the team, with
one exception, is credited with safe hit,
Med" OF course, with two two .baggers.
Fuller has adopted the left hand style of
batting and it works TO a charm-result,
two safe hits, one two-bagger. Ely's
one-hand stop of bot liner brought down
the house. Caffey made his bow with
the colts 10 Saturdays game and put up
a good game at short. Everything and
anything that came in Trusty's way at
third was taken care of in proper shape.
Captain Callsn as an umpire (first appear
anee on any STACEY proved a success.
The batting Of Zeller, Bray and s-~-si
borough, or the home team, and the
"homer of Mood, of the visitors, and
circus catches of Schenck and Peterson,
were the features of the game. In fact,
all OF our boys were in the game from
start to finish.
Just to think, whole game and one
single little error, and that not OF the
costly style Who says the boys can't
play ball
The Tacony Club had the most snowy
and attractive uniform that has been seen
here this season. The members were
set of gentlemanly ball players and were
much pleased with their trip and treat
ment here. Their only regret was that
they did not get the game.
The following is the score

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 infamed condition OF the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is infiamed you have a
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 destroy
