Jones said last night I'm going to double

ers who might wander in. People will be
barred. and any one caught inside the estate
will be thrown out No one will issue any
passes but myself. and they will be few and

been employed az guards. but none of them
will get employment in that capacity this
year unless he works hard. College boys
are prone to loaf and have good time, and
generally demoralize the working force

SHOOTS WHEN SLUMBER IS
DISTURBED
Carpenter DisIikes to Be Aroused at
Midnight, and Uses Revolver
In Attempt to Force
Quiet

Enraged because Joe Towner and a
roommate were making noise when
he wished to sleep George Taylor, a
carpenter, is said to have shot at the
young man at an early hour this MORN
ing, the bullet passing within few
inches of Towner's head. Taylor was
arrested and is being held at the police
station on suspicion.
According to the stories told by the
parties concerned Towner, who works
at the Los Angeles Dairy company and
reports for duty at / o'clock in the
morning, arose shortly after midnight
He began talking to his roommate and
the sound of the young mems voices
Travelled up stairs and disturbed the
sleep Of Taylor. The carpenter is said
to have armed himself with a revolver
and gone to the room occupied by the
young men, There he threatened them
with his gun If they did not cease MAX
ing a noise, but at last was forced to
leave the room. When he reached the
hall the young man followed him and
Taylor is said to have pointed his re-
yolyer at Towner's head and to have
fired
Taylor was later arrested in his room
at 521 San Julian street, and the re-
volver, fully loaded. was found hidden
in an old shoe beneath number of
carpenter tools in a closet When
asked why he had reloaded the re-
volver Taylor informed the patrolman
that he expected he would be arrested
and had loaded the gun so the officers
would think it had not been fired.
