How They Were Found BY China

How They Were Found BY China
Mr.. L. M. Wagner, Of the Kimberly,
yesterday told HERALD reporter about
the loss and finding Of his diamonds:
II lost the stones January 9TH, I did
not know where or how. The same
night after I missed my wallet l notified
Chief Of Police Glass. It was Saturday,
January 3lst. beforethey were recovered.
/ had already given the gems up as lost
forever. had been out all the after
noon riding, and had gone over good
deal of ground. / had no idea of where
they had dropped, and as they were so
small a package, when they were not re-
turned by the finder at once / concluded
they had fallen into the hands of some
dishonest person Who intended to keep
them.
81 must say this for Chief Glass-he
never rested in his search from the time
told him until he came and announced.
their discovery. When I felt afraid
they would never turn up he encouraged
me and went on with his still hunt 1
was more than anxious to frd the
stones. They were worth $l2, 800; but
that was not the worst of it. Some of
my creditors were unkind enough to
intimate some doubts about their loss.
Some of this got into the papers; and I
was interested in showing them what
| had become of the diamonds.
The chief kept up his search inces-
sanity, and by his great diligence they
were at last recovered. A Chinaman
found them, AS the readers Of the papers
all know. Now there is another matter
in this connection want to speak of.
It is this:eaI paid the Chinaman who
found the stones $50, and paid Chang
the interpreter $50. Some one has cir
culated story in this connection to the
effect that this money did not reach the
hands of the Chinamen. know it did,
for it was paid directly into their hands
in my very presence and, in that of my
clerk, and the receipt of the interpreter
was taken for the money. want to say
again that never knew an officer do
better or more conscientious work than
Chief Glass didall the way through this
matter.'a

AMUsEMENTs.
7-zo-8 at the Los Angeles, Theater
Tonight.

AOu1&uIs
The Alcazar company repeated The
Magistrate last night. Tonight the play
will be 7-20-8, one Of the DAILY great sue
cesses. In 1908 is one of the brightest,
cleverest and cleanest adaptations frOm
the German, and in every line and situ-
alton are the magic touch and knowl-
edge of stagecraft Of Augustin DAILY. To
be paradOxical, the plot is both complex
and simple. The play opens at the
home Of Mr.. Bargiss, where Mr.. Corliss,
having become enamored Of a portrait
OF young girl, accompanied by q large
dog, seen by him at an exhibition at the
academy, comes to this house to seek
for the original, who is really Floss, the
youngest daughter of Mr.. Bargiss, who>
with the consent Of her mother. but
without that of her father, had satfor
the portrait. The artist, however has
changed the color of the hair Of the orig
inal in his picture, which for. 8 time
nonplusses Corliss; also one Signor Tam
borini, who has been sent by q
certain Lora Lawtencus to find the orig
inal of the picture. The humorous el0-
ment in the plot deals with Mr.. and
Mrs. Bargis, and an amusing adven-
tturer, Prof. Gasleigh. Mr.. Bargis has
written play and some poetry. Mrs.
Bargis is ambitious and anxious for him
to shine in the literary world. Prof.
Gasleigh is anxious to, live well and
have money, and proceeds to do both vt
BarRis's expense. By playing upon,
Mrs. Bargis's credulity and Bargis' 'sYan-
ity, he fersuades them to move to New
York city, which brings us to the third
act. Where Bargis and his evil genius.
Gasleigh, once plunged into the vortex
and whirlpool Of city life, leads such q
hurried existence that Bargis throws
prudence and literature to the winds,
and grows SO bold in his innocent mis-
doinps that his wife detects him, which
brings us to the last act. with Mr.. Bargis
very repentant for his misdeeds, etc.

A Gigantic 6windle Perpetrated by .
Set OF shylocks.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 3.-There are
hundreds Of farmers ip the upper and
central San Joaquin valley who are on
the verge Of financial ruin through the
failure of A. G. Ross, q shipping and
commission merchant, who made an
assignment November 9th, last, to A.
Showers, of Visalia, for the benefit Of
his creditors, the principal one being the
Grangers' bank Of San Francisco. Ross
had grain warehouses; at Visalia, Goshen,
Tulare, Fresno, Hanford, Lemore, Alila,
Upton and Pixley, besides, agencies at
other points. He virtually con-
trolled the grain trade OF the
section in which he operated.
Ross apparently had large capital,
which he loaned on growing. crops, at
the rate Of l per cent. month, taking
the borrowers note, which. he assigned
to, the Grangers bank. When the
farmers turned their crops over to him
he agreed to deduct the amount Of their
loans and pay them the balsnce due on
the grain. During the past'two weeks
the farmers have been astonished to
learn that he has sold their wheat, for
which they have not as yet received q
cent, and of late the Grangers bank
has made demands ppon them for the
payment Of the .noies which Ross as
si9ned to that institution. Some of
them, il they have to pay tine notes
besides losing their gain, will be.utterly
ruined. The bank declares that it has
had nothing do with Ross. or his opera
tions beyond advancing money on. his
notes. The general impression Of those
who did business with Ross was that
he acted as an agent for the bank. The
majority Of the farmers say they pro-
pose to carry on legal warfare, and
claim they can show that Ross was only
figure head.
