The Iowa State Band VIII be One of
the Attractions.
In keeping with the object of making
the Midwinter Fair a grand success in
every way, the Executive Committee has
had the good fortune to secure the serv-
ices of the Iowa State Band as special
attraction during the exposition. This is
one of the most celebrated organizations
in America, and the only band that Sc
cured a continuous engagement during
the Worlds Fair in Chicago-a record
which speaks volumes for its unsurpassed
efficiency.
1t is State organization. under direct
charter from the State of Iowa, and is
composed of ffty-two members, many OF
whom originally belonged to the Gilmore,
Thomas and United States Marine bands.
AS special attraction the band will un-
doubtedly prove an extremely strong
factor in augmenting the attendance OF
the fair.
The business manager of the band, O.
S. Anderson, is now in San Francisco ar
ranging details for the proper placement
OF his men on arrival.

A CHINAWoMAN MISSING.
The Sweet Singer of Chinatown Ha

The Sweet Singer of Chinatown has
Been Spirited Away.
A Chinawoman was kidnapped about
O'Clock yesterday morning and carried
away from the Chez Kong Tong head
quarters in very neat style.
The fair Celestial is chattel of great
value, two Cinnamon of the above-men
toned society having paid 81, 100 for her.
She was considered the best singer in
Chinatown, and was therefore drawing
card in the crib where she was kept for
immoral purposes.
One Lee Chung, who is the head Chi
naman on hop ranch about four miles
from Gait, is suspected OF abductlng the
fair Suey, as he has been noticed hanging
around the place several nights during
the past week.
covered wagon, with two white
horses, crossed the olo bridge yesterday
morning about3 o'clock, but the Cinnamon
think she has gone in the other direction,
and large party took team and started
for Gait as soon as she was missed.
The opportunity was well chosen, as
the Chez Kong longs were holding
meeting, probably to practice the noisy
ceremonies for which they are noted. 1tis
supposed that Suey stepped outdoors to

ozone which pervades Chinatown, and
that her captor, who had been watching
his chance, threw something over her
head and carried her off. She was not
missed for about twenty minutes, but
when her absence was discovered there
was a mastering of the clans and hot
pursuit in the direction in which it was
supposed she had been taken. So far no
news OF her recapture has been received.
The above is one side of the story.
Another version is that the woman ran
away to escape the thraldom to which she
had been subjected, and that she had
often been heard to say that the business
she was compelled by her owners to do
was obnoxious to her.
The latest report is that the woman en-
barked on the Y olo side of the river in
small steamer, or launch, that came up
expressly for her.
Her owners have offered $500 for her
capture. and already a charge has been
trumped up that the woman took away
valuables not her own. This is done in
all such cases in order to get the use of
the machinery of the courts to aid in the
capture of the runaway woman.

In case of no flood this winter the acre
