BAD CHECK CASE
OFFICERS OF COMPANY ES-
CAPE ON TECHNICALITY
President and Secretary Of Fruit
Growers Association Released
Through Error In Drawing
Prosecutions Papers

Because of a flaw in the complaint as
drawn up in the district attorneys office
the preliminary hearing in the first bogus
check case under the new law was
abruptly terminated yesterday and the
complaint dismissed by Justice Selph.
DIR. c. p. V. Watson, president, and Miss
r. E. Peters, secretary of the California
Fruit Growers association, were arrested
Saturday on the complaint of Andrew M.
Dryden. of the firm of Dryden Bros, har-
ness makers. who charged the defendants
with giving him, as collector for the firm,
a bogus check for $3.50 in payment for a
saddle.
When the check was presented to the
Broadway Bank and Trust company it
was refused on the ground that there
were no funds to the credit of the asso-
citation.
Dryden testified that the check had been
handed him by a man named Watkins.
and that after the defendants had been
arraigned on Saturday Watkins went to
the company's office on North Main street
and paid the amount of the check In cash.
At this point Attorney Davis for the
defense called the attention of the court
to the fact that the complaint charged
the defendants with drawing a bogus
check as individuals, when they were
really acting as officers of corporation:
Nothing was said. the attorney argued,
about the corporation not having any
funds with which to pay the check.

Man Entered Churchill
Home

No trace of the burglars who broke
into and robbed the residence of A. B.
Holson, 21OO Flint avenue, Wednesday
afternoon has been found by the detec-
tives from the central station who are
working on the case. So far the police
are completely at bay and it is admit
ted at the central station that no clews
to their identity were left by the thieves.
This burglary was one of the most
daring ever committed in Los Angeles,
and the lack of caution exhibited by the
robbers astonishes the officers who have
Investigated. Standing in plain sight OF
a number of residences the robbers
shattered the rear door of the house
with an ak and then both entered, leav-
ing no guard to warn them of the ap-
proach of the owner or of police. While
walking about the house the robbers were
seen by three persons, yet none of them
thought to send word to the police that
suspicious appearing characters were in
the neighborhood.
According to the detectives who are
working on the case the robbers were evil

Mr.. Holsons family. 1t is thought the
thieves knew that Mrs. Holson and her
daughter were in Chicago and did not
anticipate that the owner of the house
would return during the afternoon. 1t is
thought probable the robbers were vege-

Detectives from the central station are
working on the case, but according to
statements made by them yesterday they
have been unsuccessful in finding any
clew which win lead to the robbers ar

Mr.. Bean has been greatly commended
by the residents on his beat for the part
he took in the affair, and had the thief
not been frightened away when he was
succeeded In capturing him. A 1t was, the
bullet, which Bean fired at the thief

evidently a second-story man, as a lad

house. 1t had been carried there from
an adjoining yard. 1t Is thought the thief
intended to enter the house from one of
the upper windows, but feared he would
be seen from the street and decided to
try one of the lower windows.
The man, as described by Bean, was
exceptionally tall and dressed in dark
garments. Neither Bean nor Jack Hem

Bean, succeeded in getting near enough
to the robber to be able to give a more

facts.
Watch Pawn Shops
A close watch is being kept on the list
Of pawned articles which are turned into
the station each day, as 1t Is thought
probable the robbers may endeavor to
OF jewelry to one of the pawnshops.
In the past the police have had great
difficulty In running down thefts COM
mitted by, peddlers, but during the last
few months there have been compara-
lively few which give evidence of hav-
ing been pulled OFF by men OF this char
acter. This class of thieves Is one OF
the most dangerous. Its members gain
entrance to houses while disposing of
their wares. This method of robbery is
called the "door bell'' game.
A man dressed In the guise OF ped
dler and carrying rugs or other articles
for sale, will approach house, ring
the bell and walt few moments to see
IL some one answers. If the door is
opened the make-believe peddler endeav-
ors to dispose of his wares, but If 1t is
not, he then turns the knob to see IL
the door is unlocked. II 1t is the man

the house. If he is seen by any person
while in the house he pretends he thought
he heard some one call to him to enter.
given a chance to show his goods, the
thief generally makes inquiries about
other residents in the neighborhood, thus
learning who are absent from their homes
and what their financial condition is. In
case he learns Of a house where the
owners are absent he usually gets COM
panion, returns little later and robs
the place.
This latter method is the one the police
think was pursued in the robbery of Mr..
Holson's house. They are confident the
robbers had made INQUIRIES about the
place and learned all they could about
1t several days in advance.
More Stolen Than Known
So far Mr.. Holson has been unable to
make complete list of the things which
were stolen. He is confident that many
articles were taken of which he will not
know until his wife and daughter return
from Chicago. Besides the $50 in money
and the jewelry which was stolen, valu-
able Smith & Wesson revolver was also
taken. 1t Is thought this latter article
may lead to the arrest of the thieves and
all pawnbrokers have been warned to
watch out for 1t.

months ago. On the summit OF the nil

what appeared to have been a pre-homuilah
metropolis. (See plan, space marked t)
A few we'll shaped tombs Of a distinctly
archaic type were found, but being empty

could not be ascertained. Still this dis
covery was OF the utmost Importance mas
much as it proved that s%epulchres existed
in a space which was generally believed to
have been within the walls Of the city and
where by the avs Of the Twelve Tables IL
was not allowed to bury the dead.
Count Cozza, encouraged by this first
successful find, continued his exploration.
The excavations were attended with con-

director Of excavations on the Palatine.
After a short time a discovery still more
important thar the first one was made a

who stole several Of the oxen OF Geryon
which Hercules brought from Hesperia
and conveyed to Argos. The space
overlooking the Velabrum which formed
the ground made sacred by tradition
and was accordingly left free and venerated
by Roman emperors, exists to-day, its
features and form, IL not intact, yet not
entirely blotted out, and all the transformn-
tions Of marshes and low hills and primeval
hollows into foundations for superb struo-
lures have not yet succeeded in celebrating
the story OF ancient Rome.
Prof. Pals, who holds the chair OF archse-
ology in the University Of Rome, explicitly
states in his work on the early history Of
Rome that the old boundary walls on the
Palatine were not built before the year
ss7 B. c., and that the city existed before
the time OF Romulus. who wal called its
founder from being the first who gave 1t
strength and stability. In other terms,
according to the professors theory. after
the Gallo confagration $500 B. c., when
the city was burned to the ground and the
Romans took shelter on the Capitol, the
Roma Quadrata was fortified by the build
ing OF a wall, the remains Of which are seen
to this very day.

annals, laws, treaties and other written
documents, as we'll as other monuments,

period, which have prevented the history
from being a mere blank. nothing hitherto
discovered equals in Importance the find Of
this ~arthenware vase.
Prof. Pais's theory has been fully cor
roborated by the excavations on the Palatine.
The boundary walls were not built, as
generally believed. more than 700 years
before the birth Of Christ, but at least 800
years later. Thu Romulian city was not
rectangular and only occupied a small
space on the Palatine, since on the spot
where the wall or the pom9rium was sup
posed TO have existed tombs Of the fifth
century B. c. were discovered and mere
conjectures have been authenticated by
positive facts. The Importance Of these
discoveries is therefore great.
II would be beyond the scope Of this
article to attempt an explanation Of the
bearing Of the recent excavations on the
history and topography Of the Palatine
Hill, but a brief survey a be given of
the materials furnished toward the credible.
ity Of the early history Of Rome.
The problems inherent to the Palatine
are principally the following: 1. The shape
OF the city; 2, its extension. and 3, the age
OF it's existing remains and consequently
the origin and development Of Roman
civilization. Tacitus and Gellius state
