Some of the Crowd at the Station When the Boys Went Away
DIGS UP DADS WEDDING RING
Eisht-Year.old Mystery Happily
Solved

South street has romance. Prof.
and Mrs. Frank W. Cady last week
moved back into the Fertig house on
that street. Eight years ago they had
occupied that house, shortly after their
marriage. Since then half-a.dozen oc-
cupants have come and gone.
When the Cadys lived there, Prof.
Cady lost his wedding ring, Where or
how he never knew. 1t was a mystery
which for eight years was to go un-
solved, and then, 10 and behold, what
should happen? Wallace, the 6-year-
old son, upon arrival at the old home
which was new to him-began a child
ish exploration of the new diggings and
and by the woodshed door he dug up
his dads ong-lost wedding ring, 1t
had stood the test-it was real gold and
entirely undamaged byresting for eight
years in the ground, and the Cadys' are
now enjoying their second honeymoon

'LOUIS|ANIANS
LIKE FLUORSPAR.
Invest in Southern Mine
That Bids Fair to BE
Big Yielder.

The rapid growth Of the North
American FIuorspar and Lead
Co, poration ~ shown at the an
nual meeting held in the Audubon
building Thursday afternoon, is
acclaimed IA indicative of the re
adjustment Of Louisiana capital
to changed conditions in the state.
The nuorspar mines which the
company was organized TO operate,
are situated IN Western ucky.
The capital for the company has
been supplied almost entirely by
LouisianiaDs
III. company has been organic
ed about eighteen months, and it's
growth ia said to be remarkable
At the annual meeting the valua
ton Of the property was raised
from 100000 to s750,000. The
share of preferred stock formerly
offered AZ a bonus was Withdrawn.
Several offers from proposed les
sees tor the output Of the mines
for the next five years were re
jec'ed.
Fluorspar ia indispe nsible in the
manufacture Of steel aluminium
and enamelware. Lead and zine
are by products. The European
product, which was shipped 10
this country before the war was
vastly inferior in quality to this
native product. The American
huorspar, it is said. can only be
found in Western Kentucky,
where the mines of this corpora
ton are located,
These mines are said TO contain
at least 100, 100000 tons of huor-
spar ore. They are situated within
easy distance of the Mississippi,
which makes shipping facilities
easy.
The value Of tluorspar has shot
up like a akyrocket since the Eu-
rOpean war. Even before the war
the demand for Huorspar TO be
used in American enterprises far
e> ceeded the supply The cutting
off Of the European supply,together
with the great demand in Europe
for fuorspar.made products In the
manufacture of munitions, has
brought up the price from SO to
800 per ton.
Some Of the prominent men Of
the state who are interested in the
company are: Robert Levert, Dan.

Orleans, P. J. kearDy, A A.
