The Girl With the Bat.
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.
Gentlemen, I bid you adieu as editor
of Thk Tikes with this Issue, and
wish for you abundant and increased
success in your business. I hav<
tried in my feeble way to help yon
all I oould. And tbank you mom
than I oan find words to express foi
the many kind words and expres*
sions of appreciation of my efforts, bj
you and other merchants of Union.

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.
It is astonishing how these old

A Great 3enaatlon.
There was a big sensation in Leesville,
1 Ind., when W. H. Brown of that place,
I who was expected to die, had his life
eared by Dr. King's New Discovery for
1 Consumption: He writes: "1 endured
l insufferable agonies from Asthma, but
. your New Discovery gave me immediate
relief and soon thereafter effected a
r complete wire." Similar cures of Con.
sumption, Pneumonia, Bronchitis and
Grip are numerous. It's the peerless
' I remedy for all throat and lung trouble*.
