S A good game is assured for next
Sunday afternoon at Athletic park.
when the Gold Dusts take on the. big
Royalt0n aggregation. In past years
the down-river team has always been
able to give Little Falls q very close
and good game, causing the locals to
play their best at every stage Of the
game. This year Joe Doty and other
ola warriors of the diamond will come
up strong, and, as he himself stated,
mean to win this game if good base
bail playing will do it, The OLD south
pitching end of the game for Royal
ton and Newman will most likely
catch him. As for the remainCer Of
the village team s lineup, little is
known, except that good men will
occupy the different positions. The
Gold Dusts are not letting over coz
tidence get the better of them and are
practicing for this game in a business.
like manner. Captain Rassier stated
yesterday that the lineup of the locals
would be practically the same as in
last Sunday q. game, with Benn and
Collett as the battery. The work IN
last Sundays game seems to have
been very satisfactory to the fans.
In reference to the battery, it is not
amiss to state that the subscription
list being circulated to raise the
amount needed to defray the cost of
holding this high class battery Is hav-
ing q hard pull. It Is mp to the fans
to:raise the amount needed during the
three months of playing, payable
monthly. The amount can easily be
raised II the fans are willing to con-;
tribute each little.

week or 10, and on the completion Of
his work 1t has been been found that
the citizens Of Little Falls have COM

water which has collected around the
tank is polluted, dead cats, chickens,

comes up from it. In fact, it is q
veritable germ. breeding place. AS the
gas plant is owned by corporation,
the chief owners of it will be located
and notified to clean up and cover it
SO as to keep it in a sanitary condi-

Another unsanitary place was found
where the Northern Pacific sewer

of the river the mouth of the sewer
remains uncovered. The railroad COM

Drought Reveals Gems Con cealed in Caddo Lakes
 of Louisiana
BOOMERS FILE ON
 MINERAL CLAIMS
Persistent Efforts Being Made to Have Lands
 Withdrawn

SHREVEPORT, La., April 22.- Pearls are being found in the lakes ly- ing in northwest Louisiana in paying quantities and buyers have been at, tracted to Shreveport from New York, St. Louis and Memphis.
 The largest gem yet found sold for $200 although most of them nave brought much less and the greater number are still held by the finders and have not had their commercial value fixed.
 The fact that pearls existed on Cad do lakes was learned about two years ago, when the drought was severe and the waters receded to the deeper DOT tions of the lakes and left large DOT tions of its bed exposed to the gun.
 Numbers of persons had been attract, ed to the lakes through the CI!i) .. and gas field, which surroun Is these bodies of fresh water, which cover g large portion of the northwest corner of Louisiana, and serve as an eastern border for Texas, and reach into Ar kansas.
 Some of these oil men, wandering along the lakeshOre, were the first to find pearls hidden in the mussel shells which covered the sandy bolt m of the dry lakes The report soon sprcau and several hundred of the gems have since that time been found.
 Some of these were located by the professional hunters and fishermen, who compose the entire native popula- fipn hn l.. EsS TbnX, l,n,,yhE their finds to Shreveport and plTccd them in the hands of local jewellers. Through this procedure buyers were at. traeted to the city.
 Many citizens of Shreveport now have one or more of these pearls, whicn they found or purchased at a nominal price, while very jewelry store in the carries small supply. The pearls are either white or pin, the greater number ,baiSSg nf ihA latter color.
 Those who have a study of the con ditions claim that bank of white mussels is somewhere in tho lakes, and with little search it could be located, and by the investment of small capital much money could he mai?. As vel, however, the pear! in lusny in north Louisiana has amounted to but iitie.
 Some hunter and fisherman comes across q mussel. He stoops and picks it up. Perhaps he finds pearl, pinl, or white, lodged in the lips of the shell. If he is not a pot hunter he brings it to town and sells it. If he is a sports man, the chances are he has it placed in stud or ring and either keeps it for his own use or makes present to some friend. Many of the pearls are mere blisters, though valuable games have been found and it is claimed that an or ganized company, following the business on correct lines, would prove that many gems of great value would be found in the lakes which cover what is thrught to be part of the greatest gas and oil fields in the world.
 The land on which the lakes are lo- cated is the property of the United States government. Persistent efforts have been made to withdraw the lakes from the public domain through the filing of oil and mineral claims on the lands, the oil and gas men expecting to drill in the lakes for petroleum and natural gas. As yet no patents have been granted to the lands covered by
