FATHER OF IS CHILDREN
LOOKS FOR SECOND WIFE
Claims to Have ome Money and
Wants to Pass Remainder of His
Life BaskIng In Love Of Woman
Among Colorado Mountains
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
VENICE, Oct. 22.-Seventy-slx years
old, the father of fifteen children and q
widower, c. X. Dement,, who constl-
tutes the Venice street cleaning depart
ment, is out with n proposal of mar
riage and isn't very particular about
the kind Of woman he gets, his only
stipulation being that she have a low
ing disposition and be willing to go to
Colorado with him right after the we'd
ding ceremony to live in bliss and quiet
the rest of their days.
Dement, says he's pretty we'll to do,
and that he'll never ask his wife to
do any work after they are settled in
their own little home. When spoken
to today on the subject Dement,, who
only on close scrutiny shows evidence
Of his age, said: "Now, you see I've
got little money and I'm in fine
health, and all l need to make me
happy is woman. Why I've asked a
lot of them around here to accept me,
and they think I'm Joking. Maybe I'll
get married durin' the winter and then
they'll see how in earnest I was"
When asked if he wouldn't expect his
wife to do even the housework, Dement,
emphatically declared he would not.
Il never liked to smell soapsuds on q
woman" said he, IAN fellow don't
feel like lovin' his wife if she's been
workin' over the washtub awhile. No
street My wife will be little lady.
All she'll have to do will be to dress
herself up an look pretty"
Dement, says that for more than
fifty-five years he chewed an average
Of five plubs Of tobacco daily, but that
he broke off the habit six months ago,
since which time he has gained about
twenty pounds in weight. He Is q
small. active man, with an appreciation
Of humor, and is an interesting conver-
sationalist. He is very much in earnest
on the marriage question and will make
is appear so to the first woman to take
him at his word.

HAIR PINS DRIVEN INTO
YOUNG W0MAN'S SKULL
SERIOUS INJURY SUSTAINED IN
MYSTERIOUS MANNER
Miss Pickering Stricken While Riding
Slowly Along Marengo Boulevard,
and Question Is Whether She Was
Knocked from Wheel or tainted
snocial 10 The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Oct. 22.-In one Of the
most peculiar accidents Of recent
months Miss, Pickering, daughter Oh
Mrs. J. ". Pickering, 1923 South Mad1-
son avenue, was seriously injured this
evening The young woman, who is a
Throop institute student, was riding
south on Marengo avenue on her bicy
Gle. Whether she fell from her wheel,
was run into or tainted is not known,
for she was unconscious when picked
up, but the result was that she had in
some manner been struck a frightfui
blow on the back of her head.
Miss Pickering was taken ~uncon-
scious to u nearby residence where DR..
Il. Il. Rowland was summoned. The
surgeon found that the young woman
had a frightful cash on the back of her
head, while several metal hairpins had
been forced into her skull by the force
of the blow.
The injured girl was unable to tell
what happened to her when she was
sufficiently recovered to talk. All she
remembers is that she was riding along
when suddenly everything became
dark. Her next recollection is that she
was being carried into q house where
someone worked over her until she re-
gained consciousness.
Several theories have been advanced
for the affair and Miss Pickering's in
juries. One is that she was struck from
behind by a footpad.. This theory,
which possibly accounts for the injuries
to her head, is hardly credited
Another theory is that she was run
down by am automobile and hurled to
the pavement where her head struck
upon the curbing and the wound thus
inflicted. This theory could only be ac-
cepted on the grounds that the motor
list then proceeded without trying to
see what damage he had done.
Dr. Rowland is rather of the opinion
that Miss Pickering tainted and fell to
the ground. This he believes would
both account for her period of uncon-
sciousness and the wound as well as
her inability to recollect when and how
she fell.

ONE LONE cow 7RINGS ON
TROUBLE AND TRIBULATlON
Special to The Herald.

Specldl 10 ne IleTdlu.
PASADENA, Oct. 22.--One lone and
sorrowfuI COW was the cause of con-
siderable CONSERVATION in Pasadena
late this afternoon and as final re-
sort constable had to be called In to
settle the cows ownership. The COW
belonged to j. Sosey, brother of the
Pacific Electric conductor who was so
mysteriously struck upon the head some
weeks ago and killed on the platform
of his own car.
Sosey loaned his COW to Pattee, who
runs a dairy >at the corner of Catalina
avenue and California street, the un-
derstanding being that Pattee should
either keep the COW and pay for 1t or
else return the beast. Sosey claimed
this afternoon that Pattee had done
neither and Constable Newell proceed
ed to go down and seize the animal.
After a rather hard argument the
COW was duly taken and upon the
threat of an arrest the dairyman also
paid damages for using the animal
when he should have returned 1t.

ARRESTS

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
VENICE, oct 22.--On information
furnished the police yesterday by X
AclSley Sackett, the Windward pier
silhoutte artist, efforts were made to
trap two alleged card sharps who are
said to have made several "killings"
since arriving here few days ago.
The men, according to Sackett, have
lCred their prey into apartments at the
Windward and Zephyr roomng houses
ana are only two OF an organized gang
that has worked here internationally
since the Republican convention. At
the Windward rooming house 1t was
learned that two men had been caught
trying to induce a young man to play
cards, and that the whole party had
been elected from the building.
When Informed of the presence in
town of the men yesterday Frank Pei
tret Of the Abbot Kinney company
made a personal Investigation, which
resulted in his coming upon one of the
pair as he was asking q stranger where
Ocean Park was. The stranger didn't
look good apparently, for the seeker
for Information dropped him before
having his question fully answered.
Peltret, who had witnessed this play,
at once decided that Venice could get
diOuB nicely WITHOUT the TWO men, ana
he summoned Policeman Lee to order
them out of town. Lee, however, fatty
refused to take instructions from Pei
tret, and, it is said, Offered to take off
his star and go down on the sand and
fight 1t out with any man who had any
thing to say against ] ; attitude in the
matter. In the interim two well dressed
women came out of st. Marks hotel
and joined the sharpers, and after a
hastily whispered conversation the
party separated, the men going one way
and the women the other. Sackett
claims that the men have been working
In league with prominent people here
and that he was threatened this after
noon With having his "block" knocked
off If he interested himself any further
in the case.
At the Zephyr rooming house it was
emphatlcally denied that men answer
ing the descriptions OF the alleged
sharperS recently had apartments there.
The men are supposed to be identified
with the Poker" Davis crowd of Los
Angeles, and it Is said here are known
as James Tyson and Capt. Nickel. Mar
shall Herzog said that no arrests had
been made, as there was no evidence on
which TO base a charge against the
men.

PASADENA, Oct. 22.-Manuel Lopez

felony complaint and he and the young
woman OF his choice appeared before
Justice Congdon to be married The

Manuel was freed, and there the young
