WALTER coEN WINS.
otumwa Boy Draws Lucky Number
at FL Reno.
[From Wednesdays Dally.]
At last an Ottumwan has drawn one
of the lucky numbers in the great lot
terry now going on at Ell Reno. Wal
ter s. Coen, of this city, yesterday
drew number 1402 in the Lawton dis
trict. Mr.. Coen is young attorney
of this city, having entered the Office
of County Attorney Emery, a short
time at the close of the present term
at the University of Iowa. He
went to Ell Reno about two weeks ago.
He lives with his mother, Mrs. w. S.
Coen, on North Court street. When
Mrs. Coen was called up by Courier
representative this morning she mad
not heard the good news. When told
of Walter drawing farm she express
ed herself as highly gratified at her
sons pluck and nerve in going ahead
as he had done. He is barely past his
majority.
Another Iowan who drew one of the
lucky numbers is Oliver B. Jaques of
Allerton, who drew number 1,16S in
the Lawton district. Mr.. Jaques is a
nephew of Captain w. H. G. Jaques
ard has many relatives and friends in
0ttumwa, who join in extending con-
CALCULATIONS. Amos P. McCoras of
Fairfield is another man living close
to Ottumwa who is the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of home, he having drawn
number 1,49S in the Lawton district.
Falcon Woodhouse of Eldon, who
drew number on the first day of the
drawing gets no 8, the lady who drew
number three ahead of him having
failed to qualify. This gives Mr..
" oodhouse several thousand dollars
more, as it is understood claim mum,
Der 8 is much more valuable than
number 4. Mr.. Woodhouse is a timer
in Eldon. he being employed in one of
the hardware stores Of that place. He
is said to be in very moderate circum-
stances and has always worked for a
living. His good fortune now makes
him comparatively wealthy man, and
it is probable that his days at the tin
ners' bench are at an end. He left
lest night for Ell Reno to look after
his interests.
