Purchases Beautiful Pearl.
Dr. Henry M. Owen, who is
about as retiring as his father
when it comes to newspaper pub
licity, stole a march on the other
pearl buyers last Thursday and
made a hurried get-a-way to
Black Rock, where he purchased
one of the best finds of the sea
son, a perfectly round pearl of
fine lustre, weighing about 35
grains, which brought the finder
$1200 of the coin of the realm.
The story of the trip has leak
ed cut however and the young
doctor bears the triumph with
natural and becoming modesty.
He had received a “tip.” That’s
what they call information in
the pearl buyers’ “shop talk”
and by the way, the successful
pearl buyer has to be able to
get these tips and then act upon
them with a despatch that
would qualify him to serve with
distinction under the Burns or
Pinkertons. /'The dope” as
newspaper men term it, came
that a pearler .named Tom. Coin
had found a valuable pearl on
the Upper Black and would
reach Black Rock that night.
Our young friend made up his
mind to be upon the ground as
early as possible. Slipping away
on No. 28, unknown to the oth
er buyers, he reached Hoxie in
time to catch a midnight train
into Black Rock and soon had
that $1200 beauty for his own.
Not many years ago dealers
and buyers considered it unsafe
to buy high-priced pearls with
out good old reliable daylight,
but now in the keenness of com
petition, match light is declared
to be good enough and we think
before many years, they’ll be j
buying them in the dark by The !
pearl’s own lustre.

session Monday evening attend
ed only to current accounts and
then adjourned until Wednes
day evening, when an ordinance
along the lines of the rules laid

paper in the alleys.
No steps have been taken by j
