A Fortunate AJrugg;st.

Mr.. Edwin ". Joy for many years and now a
prosperous druggist on the corner of Stockton and
Market streets in San Francisco, probably never
dreamed of rivaling in wealth the medicine kings
of the country. But various rumors having been
floating around to tho effect that he has struck it
big, an Examiner reporter was detailed to unearth
the cause, and after much difficulty uuravelled
the following story:
Itseems that about seven years ago English
physician, n great student of botany, located for
brief season in this city. His practice was not ex-
tensive, and yet tho few cases of general nature
that came to Linn attracted no little attention. His
greatest success seemed to be in the treatment of
liver and kidney disorders. and vitiated blood. In
fact his ability to cope with these common COM
plants was little short of tho marvellous. He
seemed almost infalliOle, and his quiet, modest
methods and his well kept secret was much
mystery as himself After his departure about
year later Mr. Joy determined to fathom the secret
and copying all the Prescriptions he had filled for
the erratic doctor he began systematic analysis.
In his examination he discovered running all
through the prescriptions for liver and kidney
troubles, vitated blood and stomach disorders a
couple of vegetable extracts indigenous to Caifor
mia, so simple and so we'll known under homely
every day names 70 every school boy as to entirely
dissipate the suspicion that they were the active
principles involved. So certain, however, was
Mr.. Joy that he had discovered the secret that he
embodied the new elements in preparation of
Sarsaparla to disguise the taste and putt before
his customers under the modest name of Joys
Vegetable Sarsapapilla. Immediately the SAME
marvellous stories came back of its astonishing
effects, and the mystery was solved and the talk
it has created has already caused it to step into
prominence, and orders pour in daily from all
over the coast. People seem TO be taking it and

with views so constantly expressed by the
Journal A convicted criminal should be
doomed from the hour of his sentence; should
be kept in solitary confinement, executed pri-
vately, without any sensational accompani-
ments, and his body after death should belong
to the authorities for dissection or destruction.
Criminals meet death with bravado when
they contemplate elaborate descriptions OF
their demise in the newspapers and big
funerals afterward and the effect is to lessen the
horrors of crime and of hanging. Such proceed
ings are not permitted in any other country,
and are exceedingly discreditable. Along
with its report the New York Commission
submits the draft of bill, which may prob
ably pass and become the pioneer of similar
bills in other States.

THE ways and means committee consists OF
eight Democrats and five Republicans. OF
the eight Democrats six from the South
and two from the North, one being from this
State and one from Pennsylvania. The six
Southern members, acting as unit, really
constitute the committee. The Republicans
are not permitted to know anything about the
tariff bill which the six Southern members are
evolving, and it is doubtful if the two North
ern Democrats know any more. In this stu
alton it is interesting to know that the six
Southern Democrats, who virtually constitute
the committee represent voting constituency
of 103, 249, according to the returns of their
election, while five Republicans represent a
voting constituency of 10, 843. The six
Democratic members who control the COM
mittee are from States in which the total
assessed valuation of taxable property in 1886
amounted to ST, s95. 108 O02, while the five
Republicans are from States in which the
assessed valuation of taxable property in 1885
amounted to S. 77s, 422, 1876, or more than
three and one-half times as much. The case
illustrates how completely Democratic rule
means Southern rule.

Some days ego the Atlanta Constitution pub
lished strong and touching appeal for contri-

based upon the belief that General Longstreet's

came 6 letter from Mrs. Longstreet begging
that the efforts to raise relief fund shall be
discontinued, and that the money already con-

by kindly motives. beg that you will return
all remittances that may be made in my favor

The incident has served one purpose, how
ever and that is that the arrangement between
Longstreet and his old soldiers because of poiti-
Cal differences was easily set aside. The warm
est expressions came to Longstreet from all
quarters.
1t is also remarkable that the first cash contri-
button which was received came from a federal
soldier who happened to be passing through the
city. He was James Tulte. of Jersey City, and

Changed His Plans for Life.


Wabash railway men. and many of read
ers, recollect the collision of two freight trains
near the Belden bridge about dozen years
since, by which q brakeman lost leg and the
company afterwards paid him some $4,000
damages. having been sued in the United States
Court The accident was due to fifteen years
old boy who ~as employed in the telegraph
office at Wabash. He fell asleep and let
freight train pass by without reporting it. The
name of the boy was Willie McHenry and he
was well nigh crazed over the affair For
months he would not remain in town, but work
ed farm North Of LaGro. At last he was
persuaded to return to Wabash. where he was
given employment in the Citizens Bank He
was quick. bright and capable, and afterwards
engaged in a Chicago banking house.
where he held an important and lucrative pos
ition for several years. McHenry was a natural
musician and as the years went by, took ad-
vantage of his opportunities in Chicago, and
became prominent singer among the amateurs
of that city. So remarkable his success,
that, at the advice of friends, he concluded to
go abroad and study music. He is in
Florence, Italy under the tutorage of the best
masters and the time la not distant, probably.
when he will be known of the great
singers of the age The accident which resulted
in his leaving the profession of railroading
opened the way for career in another direction
which promises to be one OF great honor and
profit.

Drunkenness and Crime.


The temperance lecturer has good case when
he declares that drunkenness is the cause OF
many crimes but he is apt to push the areu-
mont further than human nature will justify,
and to leave the impression upon the unthink-
ing that, if the sale of liquor could be stopped
nobody would do anything wrong. Some in
teresting facts bearing upon this question have
just been collected by the warden Of the Maine
State prison, who finds that of 100 convicts, IL

habit of drinking occasionally, while 40. or just
within one of half the whole number, mad always
