HERE is A "BORN T ADER"
Indiana Man Starts Out With 10000;
Has $50 and Junk" at
NiQht.


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 jeweler
to make the watch tick and sold 1t
for So. 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.

Morris was to have a certain number
Of yards of wonderful lace ready for
her majesty's use on the occasion OF
the coronation. and 1t was done on
time.
The lace Is known as Bedfordshire
pillow lace, and with 1t Queen Mary
had some of her coronation garments
embroidered. The lace is of exquisite
beauty and it takes the little old wom-
an a full day to make three-quarters
of an inch of 1t. 1t is five inches wide
and it requires 1874 bobbins to work
out the design.
Just what Mrs. Morris was paid Is
not known, but it stands to reason
that after having such an assignment
from the queen she will have no cause
to fear the workhouse or to ask the
government for an old-age pension.

TRY TO BEAT NEW RATES
Railroads Expect to Raise Charge to
Meet Decision.

Washington.-By means of new rates
filed with the interstate commerce com
mission it becomes evident that the
railroads expect to defeat the plan of
the commission to give lower freight
rates to Spokane, Salt Lake and other
inter mountain points after November
l. The proposed new rates, instead of
lowering tariffs to intermountain points
to bring them within the ruling of the
commission are made to conform to-
relative requirements of the decision by
raising the rate to the Coast. For ex-
ample, after November it will cost
SIS more ton to ship frstclass freight
from New York to San Francisco and
other Pacific coast points.

TO Be A STATE PARK
Illinois to Preserve Grounds of
Old Fort Chartres.
This Stronghold Of the French Was
200 Years Ago tho Strongest
and Most Costly Fort
In America.

Chester, ul.-Among the appropria-
tions made by the late Illinois legis-
lature is $4,000 for a state park on
the site of old Fort Chartres. near
Prairie du Rocher. ILL.,. 80 miles south
of st. Louis and between the Missis-
sippi and the Kaskaskia rivers.
In seven years this old fort will be
200 years old and at one time 1t was
the strongest and costliest fort in
America Now there is little left ex-
sept the outlines of the stone walls.
the powder magazine and the two
large wells inside the garrison de-
signed to furnish water supply in
case of siege.
This fort was first built in 1718,
when 1t was hastily constructed OF
wood by the French under Command
ant Boisbriant At that time 1t was
designed for protection of the French
in case the Spaniards came up from
Santa Fe.
A new menace appeared in 1850
when the English became aggressive
during the few years preceding the
French and Indian war. The English
troops were expected to march west
and the old fort was torn down to
make way for one built Of stone.
This new structure cost about $780,
000 far more than any other fort in
America cost until long after that
date.
The powder magazine was built OF
dressed stone and is still in good con-
dition. So are the wells, which were
lined with stone. The material was
obtained from a quarry four miles
away and carried from the quarry to
the fort site by boat on a lake that
has since disappeared. The dressed
stones were all numbered at the quar-
ry, according to the same system used
at this time.
In 1928. five years after the orig
inal fort was built, Philip Renault
came froz Bermuda with his slaves
Elk City mining news. (Elk City, Idaho) 1903-1913, 1911-10-12

and settled near ST. Philip, using the
fort for a storehouse and refuge
when the Indians seemed hostile.
Fort Chartres was the capital OF
New France until coded to England
in 1853. In 177S the fort was captured
from the English by Gen. George
Rogers Clark. commanding troops
under a 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
near by. This was followed by the
final abandonment Of Charities.
When the French ceded New France
