MUSCATEl ESTATE,

This choice raisin-grape land is about 7 miles from
The great center OF the county Fresno, the county
capital, and about mile from the thriving town OF
Herndon; this land carries special water rights
sufficient for all irrigation purposes. and are con-
Veyed with each parcel Of land sold: these water
rights are issued by the Fresno Canal and Irrigation
Company the largest best and most successful canal
company in the United States; the rights sold to
purchasers are without forfeiture clause, and are
absolutely irreyocable; each 20acre piece has
plenty flow of water for all purposes required in its
cultivation.
With land and water rights costing say sI25 per
acre, and, say $50 per acre additional for three
years cultivation to bring the vines to good bear
Ing that year at least 800 per acre can be taken
for the yield at present low prices. After the fifth
year an income Of at least 10 per cent per annum
can be obtained on a valuation of $4,000 per acre,
Can you estimate the true value of such lande
The Southern Pacific Railroad runs within about
mile OF this choice land. giving elegant oppor-
tunty to ship 10 part of the United States The
products of California not as yet one-sixth OF
the consumption and demand for raisns. Already
exports are reaching out to the London and Euro
pean markets. The demand for raisins cannot be
supplied In the next 20 years.
The San Joaquin River runs within miles of this
chosen spot.
This opportunity to purchase lands should be met
by both the old and young the business is very
pleasant and profitable raise and care for an
article OF commerce (raisins) that cannot be grown
equal to the demand.

building so well known by the former name
is not behind the march of architectural
progress, and the enterprising owner, Louis
Schultz, one of San Francisco's capitalists,
is TO be congratulated in contributing to the
many large, substantial and artistic build
ings for which this city is famed.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1890-05-02

The exterior, including the frame, can
not be surpassed for excellence in design
or standard of materials, while the interior
is devoid of chilling cOnventionalities, pima
fore furniture coverings and Install
ment" iute upholstery. All is wholesome,
rich and unaffected.
If the question of locality is considered,
there may be a discount given upon the
price mentioned; as an instance, if the
house is to be situated conveniently to the
city or in some lively suburb where build
ing materials are easily attainable, there
would be shading off from $500, but if
the mansion Is to be erected several miles
from the railroad, the full estimate will be
required; at all events, an amicable ad-
justment of this matter can be made be-
tween client and contractor B. D. A. S.

Nicolas de Mora received piece of land

even now on the same terms, and the other
day at the opening Of court proclamation
was made: Tenants and occupiers of a
piece of waste ground called The MOors,
in the county Of Salop, come forth and do
your service"
Upon this Mr. Crawford went through
the ceremony Of cutting the fagots, one
being severed with a Ratchet and the other
with a bill hook. two formidable instru-
ments, which. in conjunction with a small
square chopping block, had been set out
on the table before the queens remem-
brancer. Then the proclamation was
made: Tenants and occupiers Of a certain
tenement called The Forge in the parish
Of St Clement Danes. in the county Of

brancer announcing Coed number The

Gen. Grant at School.

Gen. Grant attended the district school,
where he was a fair pupil, and noted for
his kindly disposition, a trait of character
which he Inherited from his mother. In
after years one of his early playmates said
of him: ~ never saw him show any re-
sentiment, and l do not believe that he ever
felt a tinge of it. Re was never rude, op-
pressive or disagreeable to other children.
Once, when he was a very young scholar,
he was very much troubled by one of his
lessons. a schoolmate. noticing his per-
plexity, said, 'You can't master that
Ulysses replied Can't! What does it
meant why, replied the boy, 1T means
that-that you can't. There!'
Ulysses went to the dictionary and tried
unsuccessfully to lind the word there.
Then he went to his teacher and asked
him what was the meaning of the word
can't telling him that he had searched
for it in vain in the dictionary. The
teacher gave proper explanation, and
added: ulysses. if in the struggles of life
any person should assert that you can't do

in it soundly unless your nerves are quiet

chimes of the village churches play bars
from old songs every fifteen minutes the
day and night through, and as they seldom
agree very well about the time some sort
of bell is sounding almost without inter

are polished till they are all OF a smile

which is raised and lowered by most COM

Were there no mirror the polished mahog-
any doors of the wardrobe would answer

No bed appears, but in one corner is a
door opening upon a closet, within which
one gets a glimpse of white draperies
How the bed was introduced into the
closet, unless like the bunch of grapes
in the bottle it grew there, is be-
yond telling, for the fine linen cur
tains hang from an oval piece above
its middle, which expands above them
into a somewhat rudely carved model
of a ship, too big, it would seem, TO go
through the doorway. From this oval
piece is suspended cord with a convenient
