MASCOT WATCH AT LAST CHANGES
AND NOW is OWNERS HODOO

has rested in no less than ten pawn
shops and travelled clear across the
continent as many as four times. This
was the testimony of John Risher, to
whom Jones is said to have sold the
watch shortly after Oleson was robbed
of it. Risher said he had pawned the
watch at least ten times and that he
originally purchased it from Jones to
help the latter financially at time
when he was ILL., He then went to San
Francisco and several times went
broke" there, but that the watch
always came to his rescue. After re-
turning here three weeks ago he again
went broke" and again pawned the
watch in Aliens pawnshop on South
Main street, where the officers found it.
When the officers found the watch in
Aliens place they hunted up Risher,
who put them on the track Of Jones.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-10-26

Two years ago Edward Oleson was
held up and robbed of a gold watch
and chain. Yesterday morning De-
tectives Mcnamara and Jones found
the watch in a pawnshop conducted by
Ernest Allen, and one hour later ar
rested Fay Jones on the charge of rob-
bing Oleson Jones denies having taken
the watch, but circumstantial evidence
points strongly to his guilt, say the de-
tectives. When questioned by the de-
tectives he said that he purchased the
watch ten years ago. According to the
manufacturers date the watch was
made only seven years ago. Jones comes
from Texas and the detectives say he
has police record in both that state
and California. He is being held pend
ing further examination.

Plans to Invest In Real Estate and
Travel Extensively Through
United States and
Europe

In order to properly care for her wind
fall of $S15,OOO which came to her
through the death of an uncle whom
she had never seen, Mrs. s. f. Dowdeli
will enroll herself as pupil in a good
business college, and when she has
learned some Of the principles Of high
finance will invest in Los Angeles real
estate.
A visit to her 1S-year-old son George,
whom she left in the east fourteen years
ago and has not seen since, and extern
sive travels through the United States,
to be followed by a trip abroad, are
among the most alluring prospects
which have appealed to Mrs. Dowdell
in her bewildered frame of mind, and
she will proceed to carry out this pro-
gram as speedily as possible.
part of the money will be used to
further the education of her daughter,
Mrs. Lillian Calender, who is an art
student, and her son George. who is
attending an eastern college.
I'VE hardly dare to even think of all
that money" said Mrs. Dowdell yester-
day. as happy smile spread over her
face. 1T means SO much to us. 1 must
learn something of business in order to
take care of it, and to do this 1 will
enter a good business college. When
have learned how to handle money
believe will invest in Los Angeles real
estate. I now am making preparations
to go east and take part in settling the
estate.
''I feel especially thankful for this
fortune because 1t will enable me to do
more for my children. I can give my
son, who is in college, and my daughter.
who is attending an eastern art school.

without this money"
Relative of Gen. Lee
Mrs. Dowdell is a member of the
Dickinson family of Massachusetts,
several of whom have become famous.
Her mother was Julia B. Dickinson,
authoress and lecturer, who Travelled
over the United States on a lecture tour
and three times visited Europe. An
other member of this family was Gen.
Robert e. Lee. and Mrs. Dowdell is
proud of her illustrious kinsman.
The stories of Europe which her
mother often told her fired Mrs. Dow
dell with an ambition to see some Of
the old world, but she has never before
been able to contemplate the trip. Now
she expects soon to enjoy this pleasure,
and with her children will tour Europe
when she has seen all that is worth see
ing in her own country.
The legacy Of $S15, 1000 was Mrs. Dow
delrs portion Of a fortune amounting
TO $25,O0O0O which was left by her
uncle, L. Hilton, who died without
direct heirs. When youth he went to
Colorado and engaged in mining, but
never communicated with any Of his
relatives. His silence led his family to
believe that he was dead, and the fact
of his living to ripe old age is as
much Of surprise as is the immense
fortune which he left.

ltaly's Industrial Advance.

Not many people in the United
States are fully aware OF how rapidly
Italy Is advancing in industrial impor-
tance. In some way northern Italy
has in the last ten years shown as
promising development in an indus
trial way as is to be found anywhere
in Europe The never-failing water
supply Of the snoWtopped mountains
is being utilized by the electrical en-
gineers in way which promises to
convert northern Italy into great in
dustrial state Nowhere in Europe is
there a population better fitted to aid
IN an industrial development. The
people are dexterous. quick to learn
and industrious, and up to the present
time the general wage scale compares
favorably with that of any competitors
which they have to meet. The result
of these favorable conditions has been.

silk industry at rate which sounds
