Yes, men will run for trains, for all
that can be done to prevent, said Station
Agent E. f. Parkman, to n Journal re-
porter, the other day. A man had just
made a dash along the platform, after an
east bound train. Mr.. Parkman saw him
coming, ran ahead of him, and just as
the latter had made jump for the rear
platform of the car, he was given a boost
by the sturdy station agent that forbade
any such thing rs his being left behind, or
getting thrown back. 1t is very deceptive
this getting on trains, and one whose
wind is naturally short. and which, after
a sprint Of hundred yards or so, is
absolutely gone, is very likely to flop
back, the minute he catches the fast
moving train, and dangle out behind,
with considerable attendant danger.

Native Sons and Fiesta

The local parlors of the Native Sons of
the Golden West have recently been con-
sidering the question of helping along the
Fiesta celebration, and about week ago
wrote to the grand officers IN San Fran
cisco making inquiry as the feasibility of
having the delegates to the grand parlor
which meets at San Louis Obispo on A pril
9th, visit here before converting north,
An answer was received stating that the
idea had "caught on'' like a flash; that
every delegate spoken to had been favor
ably disposed, and that If the transporta-
ton companies gave any inducements, in
all probability about 500 native sons and
their families would come to Los Angeles
for La Fiesta. Accordingly, the parlors
here Immediately appointed COM
mittee consisting of A. Ramish, E. G. Selma
bel and M. Glass of Los Angeles parlor,
+. A. Meserve, r. Wedgewood and S. A. d.
Jones of Ramona parlor and Dr. ID. w.
Edelman, l.. Lichtenberger and Edmond
Germain of the newly established Corona
parlor. This committee met last evening
at the Native Sons hall, and after electing
a managing board, appointed sub-commit-
tees on finance. press, transportation. ac-
commodation and decoration. The COM
mttees have been assured that the entire
Grand Parlor is enthusiastic at the pros
pect of visiting our city and that a large
crowd. not only from the north but from
the adjacent southern counties, will be
here to join in our great Fiesta.
