that children will bring good luck. So
the little fellows are instructed to find
and open shells all the time keeping
juvenile but wary watch for the ever
expected pearls.
Sometimes there are thousand peo-
pie working in one mud bank, picking,
digging and opening the shells. They
watch each other with jealous eyes all
the while for, of course, it is the usual
thing for some lazy good for nothing
to find the pearl of great price and be-
come rich by one lucky cast. For the
spirit of the patrons of Monte Carlo
is abroad among the pearl fishers and
their occupation is an absorbing and
exciting one. Each of the adventurous
is constantly erecting an extensive row
of air castles" to be realized when his
lucky streak comes.
j. NJ. O'Hara, a dealer and pearl ex-
pert of Memphis, claims the honor of
starting and promoting the industry.
Seven years ago, according to his YER
sion, he engaged in the pursuit and
helped create the pearl excitement. He

marketable gems are realized by the
deniZens of the mud banks.
Many thousands of dollars in fine
pearl fisheries each year The shell
men make much more and from their
calling the element of chance is, to a
greater extent, eliminated.
First the pearl fever spread. The
best prizes We're garnered in at the
beginning and then the fishers either
went into shell collecting or departed
looking for other fields to conquer.
The more sensible of the pearl fishers
were soon convinced that it was a
great deal better to save the shells af-
ter they had been examined for pearls
and sell their collections to the button
factories which soon began operations
in the vicinity of the White and Black
rivers. Shells sold at from s. to s. a
ton and the figures approximately rep
resent the market price today. The av-
erage shell fisher could clear from 81 80
to $3.50 each day and, in addition, graf
ify the gambling desire by keeping his
eyes open IOr the always expected gem
that was to lift the mortgage on the
farm.
The soft, Oozy banks of mud along
the Mississippi were soon exhausted
and the Arkansas and Tennessee pro-
ducts We're showed on the market in
stead. These were found to be fully
as good and, some claim, better than
the Mississippi shells, so the industry
flourished.
The hunters are an indiscriminate lot
and all sorts of men, women and chill
dren are found in their ranks. For the
women are always present and some
times the children are as enthusiastic
as their elders. The fishers are super
stitious and it is commonly thought
The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1902-01-25

also clamors for the distinction of
starting the first button factory in
Tennessee.
The shell fishing industry is sure and
profitable; requires no previous train
ing, and demands no capital The sup
ply is declared to be ineXhauStible in
both Tennessee and Arkansas. The
past year was one of the most profit
able for the shell fishers and button
manufacturers and it is asserted that
the coming year will surpass the pre-
ceding one in respect to prosperity in
these lines.

Eearl Buttons anc
Cbeir origin

Fished from the mud banks of Ar
kansas by nondescript unfortunates,
shipped to Nebraska, turned into but
tons by skilled convict laborers and
finally retailed in the markets of the
world, is a brief history of the career
of the clam shells which are now
being imported from the south. This
is bat a small part of the story, how
ever, from a commercial point of view.
In Arkansas and Mississippi 1900
persons make a living by shell fishing
to say nothing of the host of laborers
employed in the button factories
throughout the country.
In Lincoln thirty-two men are en-
pIoyed at present in button making.
Unfortunately these ARE bound to la
Dor for a term of years and are tenn
porarily not the masters of their own
destinies. Whether or not the calling
of button manufacture will ever become
a mammoth industry in the state is
doubtful. In other portions of the
country the factories are fiouriShing.
The same state of affairs may exist
here when button making has out
grown the stigma of convict labor.
Shells are imported from Arkansas.
The shell fisheries grew out of pearl
diving and, strange to say. the former
is now the more profitable of the two.
In Tennessee there are large fisheries
in the region Of Memphis. The White
and Black rivers in Arkansas are the
