glowing accounts OF San Diego and

which the people have been longing
so many years is coming along well.

but business nowadays requires much

except everything is progressing well.
We are securing our rights of way and
making all arrangements to push the
work of construction as rapidly as pos
sible.

CLEVELAND SHRINERS WILL
COME TO THE FIESTA

r. d. Morgan, potentate of AL Koran
temple of the Mystic Shrine, Cleveland,
o., arrived at the Westminster yester-
day to make arrangements for the conf
ing of the 100 representatives from
Cleveland to attend the Imperial Shrine
to be held in Los Angeles.
Mr. Morgan says that the only grudge
that he has against California is feel
ing of jealousy to think he does not live
here himself.
II don't see why you people out here
should have so much the best of 1t"
said he.
'I am in love with California and am
more than rejoiced that the Shrine is
to be held here this year. We were Bit
terly disappointed that the San Fran
cisco disaster spoiled our plans last
year, but it will have to be more than
an earthquake that will keep us away
from the fiesta of 1907. I am going over
the entire circuit which we will make
on our trip in May. We will stop at
Colorado Springs, Manitou, Pixies Peak
Garden of the Gods, Royal Gorge, Glen
wood Springs, Salt Lake, Los Angeles
Santa Barbara, Oakland, San Fran
cisco, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver
Winnipeg, Minneapolis and ST. Paul
We make the entire trip in three weeks,
with four days stop at Los Angeles.
I'm the east the people all seem en-
thusiastic over the shrine in Los An
geles, and I predict that the city will
have a great many people to take care
of. / do not doubt you will be able TO
do it, however, as the hotel accommoda-
tions of Los Angeles are splendid.

the Pacific Improvement company of
San Francisco owners of the Arcadia
hotel property, A. D. Sheppard this
morning closed negotiations through
the Bank of Santa Monica for long
term lease of the hotel building and
grounds to the Southern California
Military academy.
The transaction had been pending
since the organization of the academy
about six months ago, and 1t is re-
ported it would have fallen through
had not the owners of the property been
prevailed upon to make large conces-
sions to the academy promoters in order
to secure the institutions permanent
establishment here.
The academy is now quartered at the
Seventh Street park, where, with the
aid of tents, flourishing school has
been conducted. By Wednesday the
faculty will have the hotel building
converted into shape for taking up the

H. Baker, superintendent of the acad-
envy, and B. r. Baker, principal, were
formerly connected with the Harvard

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADEN4, Jan. 2t.--Telling o tale
Of hobnobbing with death in the shape
of two sticks of dynamite hurled in an
alleged vicious attempt to play even
for having been snowballed, Deputy
Sam Wallis charged J. 3. Beard with
having maliciously hurled the explo-
sive into the midst of party of thirty
men with intent to commit murder.
1t was yesterday on the trail leading
to Mount Wilson's peak that party
of thirty or more lined up on the upper
side Of the trail and threw harmless
snowballs at the pleasure seekers MAX
ing a trip up the trail. Beard, with his
party, came up the trail and Beard
waved aloft two sticks of dynamite.
He shouted that anyone hitting him
with a SNOWFALL would receive the dose
he had waiting for them. Wallis did
not hear the warning, and as they had
allowed no male members of any pre-
vious party to escape he cut loose and
hit Beard with a SNOWFALL. From a dis
tance of ten feet Beard hurried the
dynamite and one of the sticks struck
Wallis on the shoulder, falling in the
was not until some of his nearer neigh
bors told him the nature of the missile
that Mr.. Wallis discovered how near
he had come to death. He dug the
dynamite out of the snow and then
started up the trail looking for Beard.
Beard is a deputy sheriff and also the
lessee of the Mount Wilson peak camp.
Wallis approached Beard and de-
manded to know if he were the man
who threw the dynamite. He was in
formed that such was the case and
also was made to understand that
there was more dynamite where that
came from and he would get it if he
"monkeTed."
Obtaining Boards name and finding
that it would be no trouble to get him
in the future, Wallis let the man go.
He will swear out a warrant for Beard
in the morning and charge assault
with intent to kill. He stated today
that the trick was the most foolish
he had ever seen played, owing to the
fact that had the dynamite exploded
it would have meant certain death for
the man who hurled 1t if not to ten or
twelve more who were in close proX-
unity to the target.
Perfect service at Hotel del Coronado.
