SEEKING LAFlTTE TREASURE,
Two Parties Have Chart Disclosing the
Hoard's Whereabouts.

Gueydan, Lam expedition, headed
by Captain J. d. Bonnin, from Guey-
dan, is in the wilds of White lake,
south of this place, in search of the
treasure of Pirate Jean Laftte. The
party is composed of DR.. j. Milton
White, Adam Brasseaux and X. p.
Foote. Captain J. d. Bonnin, a de-
scendant of one of the oldest families
of Vermilion parish, has g chart and
map left him by his grandfather short
ly before his death, describing the 10
cality of the famous treasure.
On their trip the Gueydan party
launch was hit by the steamer Bobby
White. One end of the boat was dam
aged.
In White lake also are Frederick
Mackenzie. magazine editor, and
Charles Tenncy Jackson, novelist. They
claim to have the real Latitte chart
and started their hunt from New Or
leans three weeks ago.
Still another party is on the treasure
hunt, having started from Abbeville,

In such wise, through five drcary

With II mind keen and earnest she

That, of course. is common enough in
