Union is to have a nov 1 game of bas< ball on Monday, April 20th. The game will be played in Perrin's Grove by the "Chicago Stars," a team composed en tirely of girls. They are to cross ba j with the local team of Union. It wil be a novel sight to the Unlonites tc witness the buxon lassies swinging the bat,twirling the ballandsprintingarouri the diamond, and it wouldn't surprise us to see them walk off the diamond crowned with the laurels of victory. We advise our boys not to become rattled, as these girls are veterans and will do them up bro *n unless they look sharp. We don't know how they are going to manage when it comes to the slide act, but we will jnst wait and seo. These girls are making an extensive tour of the country and traveling in their own special pullman car and are no doubt having a royal time of it. They are a drawirg card and great crowds go to see them play wherever they stop. It goes without sayiDg that this game will be interesting and exciting fro on the jump. Let all whodnnH* ?w tkv touiee c?n pray ball go to see this game an J be convinced. Brought Them With a Push. M. W. Bobo says his big ad. In the Union Times was a winning card and the people came from the four corners of the county to trade, and did not fail to tell him about his fine ad. in the Easter cover. One man from Gross Anchor came in and told Mr. Bobo that if he did not want the customers to crowd his store he must not put such ads in The Times. Another said he didn't take The Times but he heard another man who did, reading Bobo's ad. Another said he had been in a certain very large establishment two or three times that day and the clerks seemed to be enjoying a holiday, so far as customers were concerned. Mr. Bobo says it caused the biggest days trade since he has been in business, and still they come. m'luke mercantile company Say their big ad. in the Easter Edition caused a rnsh of business Friday and Saturday and it has continued ever since. We dropped in this week one afternoon, and working our way through the customers to the office in the rear we glanced back and if one is to judge by the tumbled dry goods, hosiery, etc., strewn orer the counter, they must have been doing a fine business that day. McLure has found it necessary to put on more help and we hope his new help will add materially to his trade. THE BAILEY-COPELAND HUSTLERS Were la It ap to the neck In the way of trade. They did a fine baelneea and the ear marks of this thriving oonoern oould be seen on every hand Easter Sunday. It was a pretty day and many stylish hats, ties and suits from there were seen on the streets. Notwithstanding the extraordinary amount of new shelving just put in they had to utilize the center of theii floor for their hat display, and the? went like hot oakes at a fair.

A/Cutting Scrape. A cutting scrape occurred on Mr. J. E. Mlnter's place near Sedalia between Coleman Johnson and Barham Wray. The men are both married; the difficulty was the result of a discussion about another woman, by the wife of Wray. Coleman took it up and tdld her she should not talk that way about people, whereupon Wray got mad, jerked out his knife and cut Coleman a terrible gash on the left side. Dr. Johnson, who attended him, says it is doubtful if he will recover. Some Old Papers. Mr. B. W. Sparks hands us some old papers that were owned by Mr. William Sparks. They are very old papers and are interesting. Here they are spelling and all: "Sir Please to pay unto Warter Botmen thirteen & four pence prock Xr ?m -Oil? '?J muuv; w juu ?tin nitugo jruur irenu David Walker, Jenew&ry 10 Day 1777." "To William Rash. "Mr. Botmen forewarn William Rash of carrying away somuch of his afecks as Will pay me." Here's a tax receipt. People were uot tax burdened In those days: % "Received of William Sparks ill cents in fals for his Qeneral and Poor Tax for the year 1826. p( Thomas Tax Collector for Union District." Besides these Mr. H. O. Bailey has handed as a batch of old papers from the same source. Among them we find dates ranging from 1781 to 1855. One is a cotton bill of 1840. Cotton was 10.62 at the time. The names mentioned in the notes etc. are Bennett and Daniel Taoker, B. Sparks, I. T, Mlekle, W. I. K. Fineley, Nevel G. Howard, Wm. Sparks, Waterman Boteman, Richard Fennelley, Joshaway Greer, Wm. Ronntree, Mrs. H. Sparks.
