Thief Makes a
 Run of Thirteen

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 27.-It was an altogether interpretations thief who broke open the thirteenth case in the thirteenth or Saite, Egyp- tian gallery at the Metropolitan museum of art and took thirteen small amulets, including statuette of the great god, Ptah of Mem phis-Egypt not Tennessee He was t'so an unobserving thief, because l,e overlooked In the same case ether objects of far greater value, and very nasty one. because he left behind other pieces of gold which seems to have been the ob- ject of his visit
 The theft occurred some time last Thursday and became known yes terday through the police. The in trinsic value of the ornaments is probably less than s100, and is negligible in comparison with their artistic value to the museum. The thief did not know that the statu- cites were mostly hollow and when melted down as they probably have been by now, the police think, they would make a very small lump of gold.
