smaller profit than the average on such suits and

the executive committee of La Fiesta.
All the members were present and the
discussion of the plans proved that they
had fully decided to make the coming
carnival an Improvement over its ex-
cellent predecessor
One of the most pleasant surprises
was the announcement that Sousa in
tends to dedicate a Fiesta march as a
compliment to the people of Southern
California, and one that will excel the
pretty and lovely tones of Roncovieris 5
march of last year. If Mr.. Sousa finds
time to carry out his intentions music
lovers will not be disappointed.
The committee engaged Hazards pa

committee. however, for the present
and he will show his interest in the fes-

A CHINESE MISHAP.
Caught by the Queue in the Shaft OF a
Grindstone.

A peculiar accident happened to pig
tailed Celestial on Thursday evening
last In a BARRIERS supply and grinding
establishment on South Main street. The
heather is a tonsorial artist himself ana
went into the place for the purpose or
having several razors ground. Beng
particular as to the manner in which the
work was done, he stood by the grind
stone, which is run by power and super
intended the job.
His queue was, as would become an ex-
pert hairdresser, a very long and fine
affair, reaching to within a couple OF
inches of the floor. As he stood by the
machine, in some unaccountable manner
the end of the queue took wrap around
the main driving shaft, and in jiify
John was being pulled over backward
and frightened up about the head until his
eyes lost their slant and nearly popped
out of his head. The man a the grind
stone appreciated the situation in a mo-
ment and shut off the power just in time.
The heather was more frightened than
hurt, becoming appeased when he found
that his scalp and queue were intact.
However, during the remainder of the
grinding process he stood we'll to one side
and did not again risk being ground into
Chinese sausage.

Upon being questioned as to the scope
OF operations, DIR. Whitman stated that
not only from Los Angeles, but from the
surrounding country, and over in Ari-
zona, and even from the far east, ply
slcians who had taken a personal in

every physician in this entire portion of
southern California to bring relief and
permanent health to the many who have
Journeyed out here under the impression
that the change wouldA effect a cure
where scientific treatment was much
more of necessity.
When DIR. Whitman had concluded his
entertaining remarks, he turned and re-
quested to be excused as several patients
were awaiting his attention and services,
but paused long enough to say in an
earnest and Enthusiastically sincere tone:
Il want you to tell the public that the
