MR.. ROWAN MADE RICH.
He Tells of His Recent Drawing in the
Louisiana State Lottery.

One of the fortunate holders Of the
winning ticket that drew the capital
prize OF $500. 600 at the last drawing
of The Louisiana State Lottery was
Mr.. William Rowan, of 2o23 South
Third street, this city. His share was
one twentieth of the whole amount, or
$4,000.
Mr.. Rowan at the time of his good
fortune was ship carpenter employed
at the st. Louis Sectional Docks. but

a Star Sayings reporter last night
q have worked hard all my life, and
now intend 10 invest nv money in
real estate, for myself ard mother to
live on"
He stated also that the money was
turned over TO him within six days
after the drawing, and that he had no
difficulty in securing it.
He added that it was several days
before he learned of his good fortune,
and that being away from home. every
member of his family were looking for
him in order TO inform him of the fact
of his having won part OF the capital
prize.
Mr.. Rowan added that he has been
buying lottery tickets ever since the
Louisiana State Lottery has been in
existence, which has been since 1868,
when the capital prize was $4,000, and
single tickets cost go He has had
varying luck since he began patroniz-
ing the lottery, winning at rare inter
walls. His last winning was Sl5, which
he received last Christmas.
He stated that he will continue to
buy tickets as same as usual, in the
hopes of striking the capital prize
again, and added that he always buys
tickets numbering between $1,000 and
10000.
Mr.. Rowan is one of fifty who
always club together in buying tickets.
