Some men are born to good luck, but trey
are few. The number, however of those
who have good luck in the purchase OF
tickets in the Louisiana State Lottery Is
large, and gradually increasing. The lucky
holders of lucky tickets are always paid
nromptlv at the Office of the company, and
some of them invest their money III LouiSi-
ana Lottery stock, which is gradually I'M
proving in value and earns large dlvl1enhs'
Mr.. J. Trescaze, of No. 81 st. Ann street
maid three dollars and twenty-five cents for
one ouarter of combination ticket, which
drew the capital prize of four thou
sand five hundred dollars last Tuesday.
He has already obtained the cash from the
company, and he can afford to enter upon
almost any business requiring only a smali
capital. There are others, doubtless, IN Inc
city who will be induced by this and otiler
fortunate events of similar character, 10
90 to the nearest lottery Office and buy a
ticket, with the view Of winning pr1Ro.
We most certainly hope they will win, ana
that they will make good use OF ther
money. and advise others to do likewise. +.

ROriny Into the SubfPrranean sea.

From the Council Bluffs tioWa) NonpareiLl
On Thursday last the labors of the par
ties who had been boring for the last eight
cen months in Lincoln, the capital city of
Nebraska, for salt water. were crowned
with success. At the depth of six hundred
feet below the surface, i'll a stratum of
sandstone. a lead of the great subterranean
sea of salt water was struck, and the briny
torrent came struggling up around the
augur, and shot into the air some eight or
ten feet 1t has since flowed strongly and
steadily, and with great force and increas-
ing strength, forming a briny rivulet, 1t is
believed by the experts who have seen the
flow that when the augur is withdrawn and
tubing inserted stream of water will be
projected from the well to the height of fifty
feet, making it the most magnificent arte-
sian well of salt water in the world.

THE GREAT Observation-Disclosures
Badger informs us that the bonds and ether
valuable papers found on Pierre Berlin at
the time of his arrest, amount to about
SIS, 900, all of which have been identified
Berlin and Capdeville were yesterday ar
raigned before Recorder Staes and re-
manded to prison without bail. The affi-
davit against them is quite as strong as it
can be made. Mr.. Bermudez and Mr.. IL.
Castellanos will prosecute on behalf OF
Messrs. ROchereau & Co.
just as Berlin was about to be taken out
of the courtroom, he asked the Judge to in
struct Special Officer Malone to give him
back some of his money. Thus far the re-
quest is not granted.
Ned Malone was arrested yesterday in
this affair, as he had been seen hanging
around the head of st. Louis street. AS he
was out on bonds to appear before Judge
Montamat, yesterday, on the long charge,
he was taken before that official, and sent
to the Workhouse for term of three
months. Therefore, if he is wanted in the
Rochereau robbery case, he can be found
with little trouble.
