ASK HEALTH OFFICER
TO REPORT ON JAIL
Police Commission Appeased by Mayor
Stating Quarterly Document
Was Being Prepared

"What has the health board been do
ing all this time that it has permitted
the health officer to violate the char
ter?" demanded Commissioner John
Topham when the police commission
was called to order last night.
president Works called the atten-
tion of the city council to conditions
at the city Jail and blamed the police
commission largely" continued Mr..
Topham. IT want the attention of the
board of health called to the fact that
the city charter requires the health
officer to make personal inspections of
all public institutions in the city every
three months and make reports based
on these inspections"
Mayor Alexander told Mr.. Topham
the board of health had made an in
vestigation of Jail conditions and rem
dered a report which will be submitted
to the council next Tuesday. No for
NAL action that could be construed as
censuring the health officer was taken
by the commission.
Section 125 of the charter defines the
duties of the health officer and among
others appears the following sentence:
HE shall in person visit once in each
quarter all the public institutions in
the city under the charge of the health
department"
1t was to this provision Of the char
ter Mr.. Topham referred.

on Charge of Fell
ony

AS a. result of a dispute over busi-
ness matters, Matthew n. Blumenthal,
SO years old, of the Western Fish and

rested soon afterward in restau-
rant nearby and booked at the police
station on a charge Of assault with in
tent to kill.
Blumenthal was t-ken to the receiv-
ing hospital and the police surgeons,
after an examination, found the bullet
had entered the right cheek about two
inches under the right eye, ranged
downward knocked out tooth, passed
through the tongue and lodged near
tie hynoid bone in the left side of the
neck within a fraction of an inch of
the jugular vein. After the bullet was
removed Bluementhal told of the af-
fair.
It was sitting down at the time but
when l saw him draw a revolver, ]
sprang from my seat and started down
the stairs of the balcony where the
Office is located. He fired as 1 ran and
the bullet struck the brim of my hat
and entered my cheek. He fired twice
more but the bullets did not wound
me-"
Hawkins declared he shot in self
defense. He said Blumenthal made a
remark rejecting on his honesty, ther
advanced on him with steel eraser
"He tried to strike me with the
weapon" said Hawkins, land 1 shot
to protect myself"
After being treated by the police
surgeons Blumenthal walked out of the
hospital and went to his home at 11t

Does 1t Pay to Be Honest
in Business?

1t has been frequently said that no
man can be strictly honest and truth
ful in business and succeed. Conse-
quently that no business that is con-
Quoted with absolute honesty and
truthfulness can be successful. The
fallacy of this assertion was never
more completely exposed than by the
astonishing progress of the well and
favorably known HOME BUILD
ERS."
Since the inception Of "HOME
BUILDERS" in February, 1908, when
it was announced that its operations
were to be governed by a controlling
board of fifteen directors, the conf
dence reposed in the honesty and
truthfulness of these gentlemen has
been it's strongest asset. The asser-
tion that it would enter into no dan
gerous speculation, that it would ac-
qu!re no debts, that it would issue no
promotion stock, has been faithfully
observed, with the result that it has
had the most phenomenal growth of
any business enterprise ever estab-
lished in Southern California.
"HOME BUILDERS" has never
made an assertion that it could not
substantiate, it has never entered into
contract that it did not faithfully
observe it has never stopped to shady
or unQefndnu IneLnOuS III the sale VI
stock. "HOME BUILDERS opera
tions are open and above-board. 1t
has but one story to tell, and it tells
it openly and fearlessly. It's progress
and policy are outlined in it's publica-
ton, "HOME BUILDERS MONTH
LY," free to ALL and a quarterly state
ment is issued which gives accurate
information relative to it's standing at
the close of each dividend period.
That "HOME BUILDERS methods
have won the confidence and approval
of the public is shown by its remark
able development from small con-
Germ with assets of but $3.50 to a
firmly established company of the first
rank with assets of nearly $500,0O0.
That it can afford to pay its stock
holders Il per cent on the par value of
it's stock and still add to its surplus
and undivided profits is a striking
evidence of prosperity. So rapidly has
"HOME BUILDERS" expanded that
it has been found necessary to engage
larger quarters, and the company has
therefore taken a lease of the ground
floor at 129 South Broadway, on the
left of the entrance of the Mason
Opera House building.
It's stock now sells for $1.70 a share.
February it advances to $1.75. The
terms are all cash, or 10 per cent down
and per cent monthly.

HAY AND GRAIN CROP
OUTLOOK IS EXCELLENT
More Land Under Cultivation Near
Fullerton Than for Many
Years Past

FULLERTON, Jan. 19.-There is more
land under cultivation this year for hay
and grain than there has been at any time
during the past ten or fifteen years. Hay
and grain dealers state that the crop this
year will be fully 20 per cent larger than
that of last year. Ranchers are now SOW
ing seed to land that never before has been
under cultivation. This is due to the
heavy rainfall which has been of such great
benefit to hay men. There will be from
40 600 to $4,000 tons of surplus hay left
over in Southern California when the new
crop starts in.

AWARDS PRIZES TO BEST
BANTAMS IN EXHIBIT
Attendance at Chicken Show Inter.
fered with by Aviation Events,
Despite Class of Entries

Awards were made yesterday by
Judge c. L. Hogue of San Gabriel
for the best bantams exhibited at
the sixth annual show of the South
west Bantam and Pigeon club, now
being held at Chutes park. Every lit
tie bantam cock held up his head a
trihe higher as Hogue passed along,
distributing blue ribbons on every
hand.
"The exhibit is not only the largest
but the best ever held on the Pacific
coast" declared every expert who has
attended the exhibit, and the birds are
of a much higher class than those ex-
hibited a year ago. Owing to Avia-
tion week the exhibit has not beer
attended as we'll as was expected.
Awards in the pigeon classes will be
made today and rivalry is keen.
