Home

Miss Eva Henry, IA years of age

tracted by Police Surgen Quint.
When the little girl first arrived at
the hospital she told the officers she
had been shot by an old man on South
Figueroa street. but later told them
she accidentally inflicted the wound
herself. The question was investigated
by Detective Zeigler, who found the
girl had shot herself when attempt
ing to extract cartridges from the re-
Volver.
Although the wound in the young
girls hand is not considered at all
serious ii was very painful, and this
fact is said to give cause for her
statement that she had been shot by

Mr. Flint says that notwithstanding

Though the aversion of Judge Enoch
Pepper to paying an assessment of
S575 for street work on Flower street
and his shrewdness in discovering a
technical error. Contractor Niemann
will lose his entire contract price Of
several thousand dollars for laying
sidewalks and curbs on Flower street,
between Sixth and Pico streets.
The appellate court has decided for
Judge Pepper.
When the improvement was first
proposed Judge Pepper protested vigor-
ously against 1t.
1t was carried over his protest, how
ever and Judge Pepper set himself to
work to find some means whereby he
could defeat the plan. Before he had
discovered it the work was well under
way.
But as the Vrooman act is full of
technical questions Judge Pepper had
little difficulty in finding one that
suited his purpose.
This law says that notices of the
Improvement must he posted on the
street at distances not more than 100
feet apart

posted the notices. He chose a con-
venient telephone post and tackled up
a notice Then ne crossed the street
and tackled a notice on a post directly
opposite the first. He measured off
the distance of 100 feet to the next post,
tackled notice there and crossed the
street, where he placed another. He
continued this until he had tackled
notices 100 feet apart the full length
of the proposed improvement.
1t was these notices that won the day
for Judge Enoch Pepper. With a tape
line Judge Pepper measured the dis
tances between the notices. He found
they were exactly 100 feet apart on
either side of the street, but when
measured from one post to the next
nearest post on the other side of the
street, on the hypothenuse Of a tri-
angle, they were more than 100 feet
apart and on this technical excuse he
took the case before the courts.
He was sustained by the appellate
court and the cost of the street work
now falls back on Contractor Niemann,
who has no means of collecting the
money due for the work although il
has been accepted by the city.
