MINNIE JONES'
ALLY MISSING
POLICE LOOK FOR ALLEGED
ACCOMPLICE
VICTIMS COME FORWARD WITH
ACCOUNTS OF sWINDLEs
Prosecution Instituted by Harrer
Brings Developments in Which
Partner with Two Aliases
Is Implicated

Officers of the district attorneys Of
fee are looking for Fay Loewenstein,
alias Fay Letter alias G. E. Bradley,
whom they believe guilty of swindling
a number of persons in fake land and
live stock deals.
Minnie Jones, now undergoing
preliminary hearing in Justice Ste
phens' court on a charge OF obtaining
money under false pretenses, is said
to be LeWenstein'S chief accompllce,
and correspondence exchanged be-
tween them which is now IN the pos
session of S. L. Browne, chief of the
criminal bureau, shows that theff op-
erations have extended over a large
Acid. New victims are appearing daily
to tell the story of how they were
swindled, and giving facts which have
been kept secret heretofore, owing TO
fear of ridicule, pardonable enough
when the shaIlownesS of the fraudulent
propositions is disclosed.
Loewenstein, according to the au-
thorities has been associated Win
Minnie Jones during the past two
years. furnishing the brains for the
carrying out of their plans; While the
woman. on account of her nerve, was
called on to perform the work.
Minnie Jones was arrested several
DAYS ago aII6f GSOIS0 w 1AoA me- u
Santa Monica had given her $500 to
invest in an alleged fictitious cattle
transaction, and spent almost twice
that much in making preparations for
carving out a marriage agreement
which. he claimed, she induced him to
enter into. According to Harmer, the
cattle were to be purchased from G.
E. Bradley of Whittier, and the officers
believe Bradley and Loewenste1n to be
one and the same person.
Suspicion first fell on Loewenstein
when Harmer, in his story to G. Ray
Horton, deputy district attorney, said
the receipt for his money was not
written by the Jones woman, but was
picked UP by her from desk in the
parlor of her home at 1885 Orange
street, Immediately after the $500 was
placed in her hands.
The handwriting on this paper has
been compared with that in letters
known to have been written by Loe-
wenstein, and the resemblance is so
striking that the officers were led to
believe that the man was concealed
in the room while his accomplice was
using her persuasive powers on
Harmer.
Investigation in San Luis Obispo
county has resulted in the discovery
that Minnie Jones claims to the own
ership of a well stocked ranch and
dairy are unfounded. Her mother, a
widow, it was learned, lives on a fifty
five-acre ranch in that county and
bears an excellent reputation.

NASAL CATARRH.
]. M. Taylor Sells the Great Rem
edy that Cured Mrs. Karberg.

Here is a very simple, yet
wholly sincere, statement of
Michigan woman, who was cured
by using Hyomei-the no cure, no
pay remedy for catarrh, asthma,
hay fever, Group, coughs and colds.
"a bad case of catarrh was cured
for me blythe use of Hyomei The
trouble affected my head, nose and
eyes, and was very annoying and
disagreeable, and the cure, from
the use of Hyomei, was very
gratifying. Hyomei has from me
a strong recommend and endorse
ment." = Mrs. E. Karberg, 213
Kingsley St., Ann Arbor, Mich,
Nov. 16, 1908.
Thousands of just such letters
are in existence, and thousands
more would be but for the desire
avoid publicity.
If you have catarrh, bestir your
self, and drive it out of your sys-
TEN. Kill the germs. You can do
that easily if you use Hyomei
pronounced High-o-me).
1t is a dry, antiseptic an3 vcry
pleasant air, that when inhaled,
quickly relieves all forms of ca
tarrhal inflammation, stops snuff
files, hawking and blowing. The
price for a complete outfit, includ-
ing inhaler, is only $1.OO at j M.

MASONIC SERMON.

The members of the Masonic
bodies and the o. f. s.. with their
friends, who attended the evening
service Sunday were amply repaid
for the effort made on so warm an
evening. The special music was
well given, and the prayer and
scripture all bore on the central
theme of the evening, Masonry, in
commemoration of st. Johns Day
Rev. Charles H. Shank, of New
bury, a brother Mason, preached
the memorial sermon. It was more
than an able sermon, it was q
helpful and a personal one. The
building of Solomon's temple was
dwelt upon, but its dedication and
conservation to God was its culmi-
nation. The structure OF Masonry
is symmetrical and beautiful, but
its highest good is accomplished
only when the members dedicate
their lives to God. The history of
the Order, the claims that John
the Baptist was really a Mason
and medieval Masons were review
ed briefly, but the ann of the SER
mon was the personal call to the
members to live up to the spirit Of
the Order even more carefully
than to observe its forms, beauti-
full as they are. AS Masonry calls
men up to highest ideals, he wou.,
but emphasize the call. So reason
able a presentation of the claims
of Masonry and religion shou.c
bear fruit in the lives of the men
and women who made up that
Sunday evening audience
