A MELEE ON A TRAIMs.

Returning Seaside Roisterers Cause =
R6Agh Encounter.
There was very lively row lasteven-
ing on train on the Terminal read that
leaves Los Angeles at $50 p. m. There
were seyeral men aboard who bad very
healthy jags with them. After the
train was several miles out of the city
the inebriated citizens became very
unruly. They used language unbeeom-
ing to gentlemen and otherwise deported
themselves improperly. Conductor
Haggin demonstrated with them but to
no purpose. The boisterous and naaud-
lin conduct continued. The condnctor
then stopped the strain just before it
reached Pasadena and endeayered, with
the assistance of his brakeman, to put
the men off. This caused general
fight i'm which the brakeman, while
he did, not succeed in putting the
ungentlemanly passengers off, came out
with flying colors, and Dave Coyle got
pretty badly beaten up ia the melee.
He was not put off the train, though,
nor were any of his party.
As soon az it was found that nothing
could be done with the rietoas passen-
gers, the train pulled into Pasadena,
where they got off, on their own &C.
cord. Warrants for the arrest of all OF
the parties will be sworn. out today, and
they will be arrested.

has always been a well-behaved boy.
There is absolutely nothing in the
charge, as will be shown. The boy q
mother sent him for peaches. On his
way, at the corner of Ninth and Ten.
nessee streets, he met the Bellringer
girl on a velocipede. Charley put his
foot on the wheel and tried to stop the
velocipsde. The little girl picked up
sand and threw it at Charley, and the
boy said, If you throw any more sand
will pitch you over the fence The
girl did not heed the warning, and
Charley caught hold of her and pretend
ed to throw her over the fence. The
boy fell down on the girl in the struggle.
The whole occurrence did not last more
than minute. These are facts, told
me by Claude Grant, who saw the fuss
between the boy and girl"
