OLD TIME FIDDLERS
Contest to be Held in this City
March 26th.

Marion is to have an Old Time
Fiddlers' Contest on Thursday
evening, March Goth. All arrange
ments havebeen perfected. Judge
M. ID. Brown, of Madisonville, is
the manager of the contest. He
was in this city Monday arranging
with Walter Walker, manager of
the opera house, for the entertain
ment. Judge Brown is widely
known over Western Kentucky.
He has participated in twenty or
more contests, and there is no
doubt the contest will prove a
great success with such a compe-
tent and popular manager. Low
rates have been obtained on the
railroad from all surrounding
towns. Every old time fiddler in
western Kentucky will be invited.
The expenses of all contestants
will be paid by the management.
The program has been arranged
and will appear next week. There
will be any number of amusing
contests. There will be a prize
for each any every old fiddler.
Many fine special features will be
introduced. Fifteen of the best
old time fddlers of Hopkinsville
and Madisonville are coming. 1t
will be the most amusing and most
unique entertainment ever held in
Marion. Just imagine fifty or six
ty old time fiddlers on the stage,
playing in concert "The Arkan-
saw Traveller" Dixie" or "Old
Black joe" 1t will be better than
a circus. Every old fiddler who
desires to enter the lists can do so
by writing to Walter Walker. Re-
member the date, March Goth, and
arrange to attend.

The Joplin zinc and lead mar
ket for the week ending Saturday
was shade better and very firm.
What is termed the Joplin district
comprises various points in Kan
sas and the Indian Territory and
the aggregate output of lead and
zinc, while credited to Joplin,
comes from at least Is widely sep
arated mining camps. The ores
are generally bargained for during
the first part OF the week; they are
delivered TO cars or smelters by
Saturday morning and payments
are made that day, so that Joplin,
the monied center of the district,
is very lively place up to 10 or
ii o'clock Saturday evening; the
banks are held open until that
hour or later, the land owners, the
operatives and the lessees all re-
ceive their money and the busi-
ness of the week is settled and
paid for in full.
The feature of the last weeks
market was the very small reserve
stock, in fact not more than a
weeks output has been on hand
during the past two years. While
there has been a small increase in
production during the ten weeks
of this year the increase in smelt-
ing capacity and the greater de-
mand has caused the smelters to
encroach upon their stock reserves
and the outlook is more than pro-
missing for a still further advance.
Zinc sold at $3l 80 per ton, lead at
$43.50 per ton. 1t should be not
ed that these prices refer to the
ores, not the metals.
The largest producing proper
ties of the Joplin district are un-
der the control of the Continental
Lead, Zinc and Smelling Compa-
ny. They show a production last
week of 45l 900 pounds. When
it is understood that one of our
properties with merely surface de-
is able to ship 100000
pounds in the same number of
lays, the great value vi the Mari
On district will be understood. A
iozen openings at Joplin may
nave contributed to the amount
credited to the "Continental COM
oany, while but one property is
represented here, at the moment
II writing.

ged with seduction. and against
whom two large damage suits were
recently filed, was arrested at his
home in Dycusburg Monday by
sheriff Lamb and brought to this

bond of $500. 1t will be remem-

the sheriff when arrested two
weeks ago, and the report was cir.
culated that he had left the coun-
try, but sheriff Lamb doubted the
reliability of these rumors, and
going to Dycusburg Monday, sur
prised and arrested Bennett.

MINES And MINING.

The shipments of Huor spar,
both crude and ground, as given
by the Illinois Central railroad,
show most gratifying increase
for the year 1901, more than TO-
100000 pounds being shown in
excess of the year 1900 from our
district.
The shipments from Rosi Glare
on the Ohio river also show an in
crease, but the quality has suffer
ed somewhat, from occasional BEN
ches of calcite running into the
huor spar. The handicap of ship
ping in barrels and transferring
from the wharf to the cars at rail-
road points is somewhat of seri-
GUS expense in handling the river
fluor spar.
The report of the production of
huor spar for 1901, given by the
Mining and Engineering Journal
could not have been correct. Its
staten ,nt that the shipments for
1901 were but little in excess of
1900, is a mistake. The produc-
tion and shipments from the Ma
rion district, which includes Mex
leo and Crayneville, were as fol-
lows for the three years past;
1889, 100000 pounds
1900, 100000
1901, 27,000,0O0 "
These statistics were taken from
the shipping books of the railroad
and are absolutely correct.

lead and zinc deposits of the Ozark
region, which includes the joplin
and Arkansas districts. The value
of the ore mined and sold for the
year 1900 is given. The report

ding detailed map, showing the

amount of zinc produced in the
districts mentioned was So, ,565, ,46l

freezes too hard to work thoroughly.
Select a warm sunny spot, sheltered
from the north and west winds, ar
ranging if possible to run the rows
east and west. Spade the ground
deeply. working in a liberal supply
of well-rotted manure, and top-dress
with air-slaked lime and wood ashes,
one quart OF the former 70 four quarts
of the latter for 12 or Is feet of dou-
bic row. This should be thoroughly
worked into the soil, and the bed
should then be covered with coarse
manure or any kind of mulch to pre-
vent freezing too deeply. Remove the
mulch early in the spring, and as soon
as the surface is sufficiently dry to
work nicely rake the soil until well
fined and sow the seed. Sow in shall
low drills five or six inches apart and
cover not to exceed an inch in depth.
Sow as soon as the ground will admit
of working, even if the frost is not
out below, as there win be little If any
danger of injury from freezing. In
this way the blooms may be had long
before they can be obtained from the
seed sown for later blooming. Sowing
for late and continuous blooming re-
quires far different treatment and
viii be treated at length later ON.
