TUBERCULOSIS WILL
BE SPEAKERS TOPIC
First of Series of Lectures to Be Given
at Labor Temple viii Be
Delivered Thursday,
January %

Considerable interest is being mani
tested in the meeting to be held Janu-
airy % in the Labor Temple, Maple av-
enue, at which tuberculosis; It's
Cause and Cure" will be discussed by
physicians who have made the disease
life study. They will demonstrate
how tuberculosis can be prevented and
entirely eradicated. This will be the
first of a series of lectures on the sub
ject that is being arranged by w. E.
McLernon, representative of the Inter
national Typographical union.
That this terrible scourge, which, as
statistics show, claims one victim in
the United States every two and one
half minutes, can be cured by simple
methods and treatment will be shown
conclusively by such authorities as c.
B. Booth president of the California
Society for the Study and Prevention OF
tuberculosis, and Drs. George L. Cole
and George H. Kress of the same soci-
ETY.. The lecture will be illustrated by
stereopticon views, depicting conditions
under which the disease thrives. its
different stages and the means adopted
by the society to effect permanent and
lasting cures.
Mothers should be specially interested
in this lecture, as upon them devolves
the care of the growing boy or girl who
may be infected by the deadly germ.
Relentless warfare is being conducted
by the Typographical union throughout
the United States against the great
white plague, with the result that many
lives are being saved and the death
rate of the membership from this cause
is being greatly reduced. Admission is
free to these lectures, and every one
will be welcomed.

LOS ANGELES RANGE
HAS BEST FEATURES
San Diego Unable to Furnish the Dis
lance Required by Torpedo Fleet
for Practice with Small
Arms

Capt. e. J. Louis, ordnance officer Of
the Albany, flagship of the torpedo f1o-
tillas now at San Diego; Lieut.. William
j. Moses of the same vessel and Lieut..
A. Il. WoOdbine, commanding the sew
enth division of the naval militia, were
In Los Angeles yesterday, looking at
the state rifle range just beyond East
lake park
There are three torpedo boat flotillas
now at San Diego, containing fourteen
vessels in ALL and the necessity of find
ing suitable range for practice is one
of great urgency.
There are good reasons for conclud-
ing that the ranges at San Diego will
not prove fit for the purposes required
They are extremely limited, the longest
distance available not exceeding 900
yards, and there is only one butt for
both ranges. 1t is also against the
ranges that the men are compelled
often to shoot with the sun in their
eyes.
On the other hand, the state rifle
range in Los Angeles offers complete
facilities for the whole course. which
may reach a thousand yards, though
the practice is only with small arms
and skirmish grounds also would be
available. This feature would be of
great value to the Pacific fleet at large,
which is deeply interested in securing
adequate grounds.
The one point in which San Diego
would appear to have the advantage is
the matter of transportation, but, hav-
ing in view the amount of money that
the torpedo boat crews would put in
circula don and the collateral CONNER
cial advantages that would accrue, it
is considered that the car companies
and Los Angeles citizens in general will
see to it that this shall not prohibit the
selection of the site that in all other
respects offers, and alone offers. all
the features that will count most with
the government.

INSTANTANEOUS HEATER
NEARLY ENDS HIS LIFE
Convalescent from Recent Illness,
Falls Unconscious from Gas, Hav.
ing Exhausted Supply of
Oxygen In Room

Harry Fumely, IS years old, living
at the Rainier hotel on South Broad
way, had narrow escape from as
phyxiation yesterday afternoon be-
cause of his ignorance of the workings
Of an instantaneous heater.
Fumely entered the bath room and
lighted the heater. He then sat in the
closed room waiting for the bath TUX
to fill. The burning gas sooE exhausted
all the oxygen in the air, and Fumely,
who had recently recovered from ill
ness, fell to the floor unconscious. A
roomer passing along the hall at this
time heard the noise, rushed into the
bath room and dragged Fumely into
the hall.
DR.. E. H. Wiley of the receiving hos
pital was summoned and soon brought
the unfortunate man out of danger.

ROBBERS RIFLE
SAFE AT HOTEL
KEEPER OF BOARDING HOUSE
R0USED FROM SLEEP
NEGRO AND WHITE MAN WORK
IN COMBINATION
Pair Obtains Plumber Consisting of
1926 in Cash, Two Gold Watches
and a Collection of
Papers

Awakened by a gruff command to
get out of bed, J. Komai, who, with his
brother, H. T. Komai, conducts Jap
anese boarding house at 112 South Rose
street, opened his eyes at o'clock yes
terday morning and looking into the
muzzle of a large revolver held by a
negro. His plea for mercy was inter
rupted by the entrance of white man,
who jerked the trembling hotel man
from bed and ordered him to accom-
pany the two intruders to the hotel
office downstairs.
Komai was little slow in his move-
ments and his speed was accelerated
by the negro, who poked the hotel
keeper in the ribs with the muzzle of
the gun. The white man also was an
noyed by Koami's slowness, and
showed his displeasure by impressing
several well-directed blows on the por-
ton Of the Japanese anatomy where
they would do the most good.
When the trio entered the office the
negro held the revolver to Komais
head while the white man, who ap-
peared to be an experienced safe crack
er, began to work the combination dial.
After several attempts the safe was
opened. The inner doors were locked
and the hotel man was made to pro-
duce the keys and open them. He de-
INJURED, but flourish Of the revolver
caused him to accede to the none too
gentle request and the doors were
swung open. The white man then
opened the money compartment and
took 1926, two gold watches and a
number of papers.
The pair then made Komai lock the
safe, and after warning him not to
make an outcry under penalty of being
shot, hurried out by the front entrance
and disappeared in the darkness.
Komai reported the matter to the
police yesterday morning and gave the
detectives good descriptions of the
men.
