~. according to the same system used
at this time.
In 1923. FIVE years after the orig
iHal fort was built. Philip Renault
came from Bermuda with his slaves
and settled near St Philip, using the
fort for a storehouse and a refuge
when the Indians seemed hostile.
Fort Chartres was the capital of
New France until ceded to England
in 1853. In ITS the fort was captured
from the English by Gen. George
Rogers Clark, commanding troops
under commission from the COVER
nor Of Virginia. Fort Charities then
became the capital of the great north
west territory, and the seat Of gov
eminent remained there until states
were formed from the territory. High
water. which occasionally flooded the
fort. caused Fort Gage to be built
uear by. This was' followed by the
final abandonment of Chartres.
When the French ceded New France
to the English and the flag of France
was hauled down. many residents Of
that district refused to live under the
English flag and went to ST. Louis
Among the families who moved away
rather than live under the English
flag are several whose descendants
became very prominent in the COM
mercial and social life of St Louis.
OF the several old forts built IN
the Illinois Bottoms more than a cen
fury ago. the only one that has any
thing left Of the original buildings
is Fort Chartres. Under the care Of
custodian appointed by the state.
the place will be made into a park
and preserved from further ruin.

Indiana Man Starts Out With 10000;
Has $50 and "Junk" AZ
Night

Hammond. Ind.-President Frank
Nelson of the Lowell bank gave Frank
Coorse an old silver watch In the
morning. The watch ran when Coorse
ran. Coorse gave Is cents to a jeweIer
to make the watch tick and sold II
for 81. With the 81 he bought a sick
horse from a farmer.
This he traded for an old buggy and
two extra wheels. He then traded the
two extra wheels for the body Of a
road cart and put his buggy wheels
on the cart. trading the body Of the
buggy for a set Of harness. For this
outfit a farmer traded him a blind
broncho- Coorse did not know the
broncho was blind until It ran away
with him
Another farmer. thinking the bron-
cho a spirited animal and not knowing
It was blind. gave him $50 for it after
Coorse had wept and told him he had
raised the animal from colt. Nelson
is now ready to match Coorse against
any other trader.

Inquiries made in poultry circles
about Dunmow elicit that preparations

are being specially fed and trained for
the sport. and parent birds which are
most inclined toward growing are be-
ing run among the younger ones to
give them the advantage of a good
