The prosperity which recently came to Jo-

in the Louisiana State Lottery has not in the
slightest degree turned the fortunate recip-
tents head. He still carries on file-mak1ng
in little shop at No. "a John street, which
he has conducted all alone for several years
and proposes to keep right along as former
1y instead of giving up his old occupation or
attempting to splurge in any direction. He
was busily employed about his work when
the writer called upon him to-day. ''There
isn't much of story to tell, said he, when
asked about his stroke of good luck. My
ticket was a one-fortieth of No. 9,S43 which
won the $G00, 600 prize in the last drawing
and my share was $4,000. / forwarded the
ticket to New Orleans for collection by the
Adams Express Company, and a check for
the amount came back promptly. It makes
me comfortably well of, and am satisfied
and rejoiced, although have no idea of al
lowing my good luck to run away with my
