Hole In Roof and 9roke Into
Cash Register
While rifing the cash register in the
grocery store of H. Ripperdan, 1886 West
Second street, at o'clock yesterday
morning, Adrina Hartly and Harry
Bourland, each about 12 years old, were
discovered by Ohicer Mcintosh and ar
rested.
The patrolman's attention was at
tracted by the noise of a furious ham
mering inside the store. AS he neared
the store Bourland, who was on watch,
yelled, "Jiggers. the BULL" and both
boys disappeared in the rear of the
store. The policeman rushed to the
rear and caught Hartly.
Grabbing the lad by the collar the
policeman dragged him three blocks
in pursuit of Bourland, who was also
arrested. They were taken to the city
jail and later sent to the detention
home.
Bourland's parents live at 20S South
Olive street and Hartlys home is at
IL South Hill street. The boys have
a police reputation and their parents
say that they are unable to control
them.
When questioned in regard to the af-
fair the boys said that they effected
an entrance to the store through hole
in the roof. They hammered the back
off the register and when discovered
Hartly was rif1ing 1t.

City Assessor Evan Lewis made
such allowances for the reductions
which the board of equalization made,
in making his estimate of the value of
the property in the city of Los Angeles,
that the $31, 100000 increase over last
years assessment still stands. The
total figures on the books approach
$165, 100000.
According to the assessors this in
crease of $31, 100000 in taxable property
will increase the city's income for the
year by 100000. This substantial ir-
crease has inspired in the minds Of
some of the city fathers the hone that
the tax rate of $14O might be reduced,
thus removing a burden, or at least
Tightening the burden of thousands of
The city's taxpayers.
Smith Is Doubtful
Councilman Smith of the Fifth ward
who is also chairman of the finance
committee of the council and president
OF the board of equalization, has cham
ploned the cause of lowering the rate
il it proves feasible. All of the esti-
mates of the various city departments
must pass through the hands oe his
committee and 1t is a we'll known fact.
which he has admitted, that he is on
the lookout for those departments
which want more than their share and
every department chief is hoping that
his estimate win not look too large to
MIR. Smith In discussing the subject
yesterday he said;
IT think we should run the city just
as we would private corporation ana
private corporations are not run on
the policy that we must spend money
lust because we have it. l know that
the heads of each department will be
on hand to explain just why their de-
partment should be given all the money
they ask for and as much more as the
city can spare. There is no doubt
that they could spend to advantage
what they ask for but the city must
get along for the present with the ne
cessities, with what few luxuries we
can add from time to time.
