LOS ANGELES COUNTY
PASADENA

PASADENA, Oct. 22.-(Regular Cor
respondence.) Nothing has been heard
yet Of Wilson j. Lee, the young plasterer
who left home apparently without rea-
son day before yesterday at about
o'clock o. M Lee rode Columbia bicycle
and had 20 cents in his pockets. The
police have been searching for him with
out success. He was 20 years of age and
had been married only short time. Mrs.
Lee, who lives on the corner of Locust
street and Brown avenue, is very much
worried by her husbands absence. Allin
r. Lee, father of the young man, thinks
that his son, perhaps, went to Klondike,
though where he got the funds is mys-
terry. Other members of the family think
Lee must have been injured or killed.
He has always been steady, earning So
per day at his trade. He frequented no
low resorts. Altogether the disappear
auce is very mysterious one.
