Brewery Workmen Celebrate Christmas

The brewery workmen celebrated last
night for the children's sake. Several weeks
ago they conceived the idea of Christmas
tree and entertainment for the children of
the members, all the branches to participate
In the merrment, and last night the upper
hall at 1853 Mission street showed the result
of their labOrs.
II was the gayest scene that place had wit
messed for many day. In the middle of
the hall stood the immense tree, and with
the generous liberality that characterizes
the members of that fraternity it was laden
almost to breaking with gifts OF every de-
scIiption for the little ones.
The hall began to fill quite early in the
evening and by the time the festivities had
opened such crowd had gathered that it
was nearly impossible to move about. By
10 O'Clock the presents had all been dis
tributed, and merrier lot of children it
would have been hard to find anywhere
Singing and other pastimes formed part
oil the evenings entertainment, and the
event as a whole was one of the brightest
the participants had ever enioyed

Connected with the closing of the Bijou
Theater, on Market street, are the follow
ing facts in the history of its late manager,
who has left town, furnished by one Of his
victims: Knapp was drummer for New
York linen and lace house, and sold such
goods in this city previous to opefiing the
Bijou. He sent his wife to Detroit some
time since, and then moved from the
Baldwin to the Langham, where. on Decem-
Der 9th, he registered as ''R. l.. Knapp and
wife, New York." and on December 10Th
registered at the Palace, Ralph l., Knapp

authority from Mrs Knapp, who was in the
East. He owes lots ofNsmall debts to many
poor persons, and the fact that they cannot
collect them will, in decree, spoil their

The Special Delivery System Working
Like a Charm.
There are, perhaps, fewer undelivered
packages in the Postoffice this Christmas
morning than there has been on any other
in the history Of the Office for dozen of
years. Not only has special attention been
paid to the rapid handling Of packages as
soon as they arrived, owing to the fact that
they are more valuable in the hearts of the
people than the letters, but the special-de-
livery system Is greater boon than any,
one at first supposed it would be. The eni-
ployes ut the central Office and at each of the
eigh: branch offices, nd the distributors on
the incoming tr aims, have been kept hard at
work for fortnight in disposing of just
such mail. and the first and only delivery
tins morning W i'll clear the Special-delivery
Department of the Postotfice. A good many
delayed packages will come struggling 10
later this week and some next week, but
even the likelihood of delays in other cities

A RapG0 Opportunity
GOOD AGRICUL TURAl LAND FOR $40
TO $50 PER ACRE..

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand acres Of
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land Of fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, 100, 16O and 800 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are
offered are especially attractive. They will
be sold in subdivisions, as above Indicated,
by the payment of interest only for three
years, at which time the purchaser can begin
the payment of principal by paying the first
Of five equal annual installments. Thus no
part of the principal is to be paid for three
years, and then the purchaser is to have five
years in which to pay five equal annual in
stallnents, with interest at the rate of per
cent per annum, making payments extend
ing over period Of eight years. Intending
purchasers are assured that this is an oppor-
s"''J w PuiShaoo idHu Va ldiT average
quality at $40 per acre, and good agricult-
ural land at $40 an acre, with other grades
of land at prices to correspond between
these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and
especially adapted for fruit growing, cannot
be had in California for less than from $50 to
S100 an acre. An examination of the land sub
ject of this advertisement will prove to home
seekers that this is an opportunity for the
purchase of good agricultural land at $40 an
acre, and tor qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers a result
easy of accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase Of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose Of promoting its set
Element in smaller quantities and its deyo-
ton to diligent husbandry.
