A Fortunate rsrugg:ss.

lIr. Edwin W. Joy for many years and now q
prosperous druggist on the cornor of Stockton and
Market streets in San Francisco, probably never
dreamed of riyaling in wealth the medicine kings
of the country. But various rumors having been
floating around to the effect that ho has struck it
the cause, and after much difficulty unrayelled
the following story;
Itseems that about seven years ago an English
physician q great student of botany, located for
brief season in this city. His practice wasnot ex-
tensive and yet tho few cases of a general nature
that tcame to him attracted no little attention. His
greatest SUCCESS seemed to be in tho treatment of
liver and kidney disorders, and yitiated blood. In
fact his ability to cope with these common COM
plants was little short OF the marvellous. He
Geemed almost iufallible. and his quiet modest
methods and his we'll kept secret was rs much a
mystery as himself After his departure about a
year later Mr. Joy eter,nined to fathom the secret
the erraic doctor ho began systesnatio analysis.
In his examination ho discovered running oil
through the prescriptions for liver and kidney
troubles, vitiatod blood and stomach disorders q
couple of vegetable extracts indigenous to Caifor
mia, SO simple aud SO we'll known under homely
every day names TO 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
Sarsaparilla 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 Inns already caused IL 10 step into
over the coast. People seem to be taking It and
writing and talking about 1t throughout the State
And thus another California industry leaps into

the girl should be returned, 800 must be
deposited with Chinese merchant,
whose place Williams guarded nightly.
Loui Sings people consented to this ar
rangement and saw no more OF Williams.
A fellow named Gage, a pal OF Williamf,
visited the home OF the girl Friday night
aud told her people to look out for her
on Alameda street, near Marches
SAINT. He left, aud Wong Cling, who
claims to be the father OF the girl,
went TO the corner Of Marchessault and
Alameda streets and there met the girl
She was taken home. When this condi-
ton OF things was divulged Chief Cuddy
ordered Williams arrested. He was
coon found and locked up, charged with
impersonating an officer. II is probable
graver charge, that OF assisting to alb
duct will be preferred against him. The
child was removed from the house from
which she was stolen yesterday afternoon
by the ladies Of the Chinese Mission So
ciety, who will hereafter have charge
Of her.
A silly story, given publication in q
morning paper, to the effect that Lou
Single ears were slit and that she was
treated barbarously by her captors has
not the slightest foundation in fact
Chief Cuddy laughed about the matter
He says that Loui Sings abduction is an
illustration OF one Of the Oldest schemes
Of smooth Cinnamon to extort money.
He believes Williams and Gage aided in
getting the girl away from her home in
order TO get the 5000 reward for her re-

manner that places her in the front rank
of performers with that instrument,
while the other young ladies, Misses
Lula and Elise, gave on the piano sew
eral essays that brought glow of enthu-
siasm on the faces Of the many musical
critics present. Mr.. Charles s. Walton
sang very well and Mrs. Mamie Perry
Davis drought down the house" with
her splendid vocalization. The closing
number massed six performers on the
stage whose movements were ably con-

THE CHINESE ABDUCTION.
Return of the Girl to Her Guard
iaus.

Thursday mornings HERALD con-
tained an account OF the abduction of a
Chinese girl, Loui Sing, from her place
ofresidence in Marchessault street, op-
poste the Chinese Theater. The girls
parents, or those having her in charge,
Were absent when the abduction tco k
place. People in the immediate vicinity
of the scene saw a carriage drive up to
within short distance OF the house
wherein the girl resided. This car
riage had remained but short
time at its station, when
two Cinnamon, dearing burden were
seen 10 enter it. The hack was then
driven rapidly away, down Alameda
street. When Loui Sings people re-
turned the girl was gone. The usual hue
and cry was raised, and finally, at late
hour last Wednesday night, two Chinese
reported the matter to police headquart-
ers, as stated in these columns.
Chief of Police Cuddy placed the mat
ter in the hands Of Captain of detectives
Harris and Detective Flickner. These
officers Thursday night got O clue
as to the girls whsreabouts. They
went 10 get her, but found she had been
spirited away, a Chinaman asserting she
had been taken out of the place, a Chinese
brothel, by white man. No track could
be had OF the missing girl until Friday
night, when Chinaman informed Detec-
tive Harris that she had been returned
to her home by some parties on the pay
ment Of 5000 ransom. Chief Cuddy de-
termined to sift the matter to the bottom
and an exceedingly outrageous state OF
affairs was shown to be existingin China
town. Chief Cuddy's detectives found
that one Williams had visited Loui
Sings people the morning after the
child was stolen Williams had agreed to
get her back for 5000, and had told them
he knew where she was. Loui Sings
people, anxious to get the girl, agreed to
pay that amount to Williams. He was
suspicious, and demanded that before

There has been a strange and unusual
sight presented in the Masonic Hall in
this city for several days past. DR..
Evans, who should Justly be classed as
one of the wonders of the medical world,
has by few simple passes of his
hand restored sight and hearing and
vitality to numbers of sufferers. His
cures are simply remarkable, and those
who came to scof have departed full OF
belief.
What his gift OF healing is, or what
power he possesses, cannot, perhaps, be
satisfactorily explained, but the secret of
seeing and hearing cannot be denied,
and those who were present
saw the strange and wonderful
things happen which are now
related. A gentleman was helped upon
the stage, who stated to the audience
that for years he had suffered from sciatic
rheumatism, and for weeks he had suf-
fered 50 overwhelmingly, night and day,
that sleep was almost unknown to him.
WI en- DR.. Evans first commenced treat
ing him he was unable to stand upon
his feet without support, and in less than
five minutes he had him stamping his
feet and dancing around the stage well
man.
DR.. Evans will treat the sick in
Masonic Hall, 291a S. Spring street, for
four successive mornings next week,
from 10 to IL o'clock, commencing Mon
day. All are invited to attend and wit
ness these wonderful cures performed.
He also has parlors at the Hollenbeck
Hotel, where he can be consulted from 8
A. NJ. until 6 p. NJ. of each day, except the
hour he is at the hall. Admission to
hall free. Consultation also free.
