ty, Indiana, some fifty miles from
the capital, indianapolis. It was
soon revealed hat these gentlemen
had left their distant homes in the
Land of Grain to reap a rich har>
vest in louisiana harvest, not of
grain but Of gold. One dollar had
grown IN a few days to fifteen thou-
sand, under the fructifying touch Of
Good Fortune, Bona Dea.
"We had five chances in the last
drawing Of The Louisiana Lottery"
remarked Mr., Parker to the wri ter:
they were all ffths. Perry got
them, and we agreed to share the
profits"
Yes, said Mr.. Perry Parker had
the faith and had the luck. This
combination was bound to win.
Mr.. Parker stated that he had
not expeude in all more than SIC
in lottery tickets during the time he
has made investments Of this cha
racter. He was very ageeably
surprised when informed by Mr.
Perry that SIS, 900 had fallen te
their lot, one Of the 6fths being
numbered 59,075. which won tn,
first prize Of $4,000. They i'm.

ne Wis frlZe IN the Louisiana
st ste Lottery and a Wife az the
Same Time.
In the private Office of The Lou
isiana State Lottery Company's fl ne
building ON st. Charles street, a
representative of the Picayune met
on Thursday, Mr.. Bidstrup, a CLANS
ter of Ascension parish, Mr.. F.
Spendrup ands Mr.. B. w. Lashley,
also from the sane parish.
These visitors seemed to be in
the happiest of moods. On being
accosted, Mr.. Spendrup said he had
come down from Donaldsonville,
accompanied by his friends, to COL
lect the amount Of $4,000, which
he had Won in The Louisiana Lot
terry drawing Of April IA, as holder
OF a fifth part Of thicket No. 59,O75
which secured the first capital prize
OF $4,000. Continuing, Mr.. SPEND
rup said:
"You see | have been an assistant
overseer on Mr.. Bidstrup's Gem
plantation. in Ascension where |
have been working since last Aug
uat. | learned sugarsmaking in the
West Indies, and lived in that part
OF the world until something oyer
a Year ago, when | came to this
country, thinking there was a bet~
ter chance OF making money here.
For nearly two years | had been
taking tickets in TIE Louisiana Lot
terry, but somehow my luck was bad
and | won nothing. My friend
there, Mr.. Lashley, about two
weeks before the last drawing got
SIX tickets from the company's ags
ent in Donaldsonville. Mr.. B. BY
biski and | bought four from him.
One was for me and three for my
brother and myself on shares.
These were all ffths. / mailed
these tc my brother. VINO liyes in
Brooklyn, N, Y. After the draw,
ing came off | was told | had won
something. but vas not sure, so |
telegraphed for the tickets, which
my brother sent me. They arrived
several days ago, and then | saw
there could be no more doubt about
it,"
Mr.. Spendrup is a handsome,
fair,hired, well made young Dane,
the appearance Of excellent
and possessed of all the
qualifications to enjoy life.
"Are You a married man?" asked
the reporter.
"No, but | expect to be very

which sails for the West Indies.
Some one is waiting for me in SAM
ia Cruz, the Danish Isle. We have
been engaged for two years. have
been looking for good luck to come
and now | am ready to get married.
For years l worked hard, but put
money in my pocket very slowly.
Now | have made my fortune in a
day.
AT this moment a clerk Of the
Lottery Company appeared and
Mr.. Spendrup a check on
the New Orleans National Bank for
$4,000, which he received with an
air Of complete satisfaction that
he was perfectly happy.
The reporter wished the young
Dane bon voyage to Santa Cruz and
q joyous union with his sweetheart,
from whom he had so long been
separated.
