Bravery of Jesus Garcia, a Plucky

Garcia, a Mexican locomotive engl-
neer, met hiz death in a most hor-
rible manner that he might save the
lives of many others and prevent the
destruction of a town,
With the certainty that he must
forfeit his own life, Garcia quickly

unparalleled heroism of a man who
