END OF Old SPANISH FORT.
Destruction Of . Famous Resort Of the
Fashionable People Of New Orleans.

From the Nep Orleans Times-DenocTGt
Spanish Fop, on Lake Pontchartrain. be-
tween West End and Milneburg, il no more.
Fire Saturday night destroyed the casino
and the old buildings which for the past century
had withstood the assaults Of the lake winds
and which marked the spot where Gen. jack
son landed when he FASTENED from Tennessee
in 1914 to take command Of the army which
was TO defend the city against the English.
During the civil war the fort WIS GaTrisoned
with several companies. cannon were put in
place and military precautions taken TO make
TIA great defensive barracks, but IL was never
used, Many OF the cannon are still to be seen
on the grounds. half sunk in the earth and
rlsting in the shadow of the trees.
Fifteen years ago Spanish Fort was q select
summer resort. Here the old families OF
New Orleans especially loved to go. The
rise Of West End. however. with it's new
attractions and new clientele, deprived II OF
rs pristine splendor. and gradually the old
Iort sank from public notice into oblivion.
To-day IL Ia remembered only as one OF the
Old landmarks, and interest attaches to 10
only by reason OF its historical associations.
Until last week, before the FIRE. few went
mere except for a good gumbo or a crawfish
olsque Fewer still went there to study its
= history. for other resorts held forth more
sntlcing recreations than did the old pile.
saturday a spark from a passing launch In
bayou St. John ignited one OF the old ram
suaekle buildings. The IRE was quickly
communicated to the remaining structures.
Sna lastly to the casino. which went like q
neap Of straw.

garments with a torpedo boat was made

SPIKE ANDERSON HAS
BEEN SECURED BY CANUCKS

Grand Forks, N. D., March e.
Spike" Anderson has been signed by
the Winnipeg management for playing
manager of the Maroons this season.
1t is claimed in this connection that
Manager Lamb has also got contracts
with Leach, Varco and Bond, all of
last years Grand Forks team =
Up to date nothing has been done to
indicate that Grand Forks will have
a team in the Northern Copper Country
league, but there is still sufficient time
to get together. although too late to
get some. of the players that Grand
Forks fans would like to see in the line
up.
1t is generally thought that NJ. Stanch-
Held can be induced to take the team
under conditions similar to those of
year ago. when he was given $4,000 and
stood the loss on the season himself.
There is no one who would like to see
Mr.. Stanchheld lose money on baseball.
and there is feeling that maybe he can
even himself this year for the loss of
last and the fans will not be particular
how much money he makes if he will
furnish to. Grand Forks as good team
as he did last year. oa
Should Mr.. Stanchield be induced to
take the team it is understood that Win
Mcneil will be the playing manager,
and there are aglot of enthusiasts who
would like to see Mac. play at home.
He has furnished Crookston two crack
ing good teams and done it under diff
entities, and there is no reason why he
could not gather. a Grand Forks team
that would break into the pennant-win-
ning class right early in the season.
While no meeting has been called it is
expected that some Of the enthusiasts
will get together Saturday night and
steps will be taken then to put Grand
Forks on the baseball map.
