In the same way is disease lurking

At the last drawing of the Louisiana State
Lottery there were two citizens of Galveston
who were fortunate enough each to win very
handsome slices of one of the capital
prizes, their tickets being fractional parts of
No az 9O7 which won 100000, the two win
ners securing as their share of this amount
s.. 800 each. One was Oscar Vim. EkelUnd, a
cabinet maker residing at No. 159 Twenty
seventh street, the other, Geo. Weiss, a deliv-
erer for FOX's bakery. Mr.. Ekelund believed
in the old maxim about ''faInt heart, ETC.,
and continued until finally rewarded, and
though he is now more than compensated for
all his investment he says he intends to con-
tinue it as the most profitable he has ever en-
gagged in. Mr.. George Weiss, the winner of
the other s., 800, was a winner against his
faith. He says he never had faith in lot
teries of any kind, and that the ticket he
BOUGHT and won for him $500 was forced
upon him 1t was the third ticket he had
ever purchased, but he says that in the fu-
ture ST any month passes without his buying
