OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for SIC
to $40 per Acre.


The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres 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 SO to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, l2O, $50 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual inStallments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate of T per cent per annum.
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming. and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at SO an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of q large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

POLICE COURT,

Chcer Moore Arrests Two Women of
The Town; Their Pararhours Escape.
Last night about 8 o'clock one of Hall,
the fruit dealers clerks, informed
Officer Moore that some one was NOV
ing about in the upper story of their
storehouse on Meadow street. The
officer proceeded to investigate and on
his approach two men escaped through
a rear door. Two dissolute women
We're also discovered, both intoxicated.
The men left their coats behind, which
they can have by calling at the police
station. The women proved to be
Nellie Saunders and Mrs Ada Hawley.
The last one settled her case before
court on payment of $40. The Saunders
woman was fined 81 and costs for in
toxication and 81 and costs for lascivi-
Gus carriage.
William Kelly was charged with the
theft of gold watch and chain and 1922
from Terrence Coyle. Last Thursday
night Mr. Coyle retired to rest leaving
$22 in his trousers pocket and a gold
watch and chain in his vest. He slept
on the first floor and was awakened
during the night by someone opening
the blinds of his window. He shouted
and the thief ran away. On examina-
tlon he found that his watch and money
were gone. He notified the police and
Kelly being suspected was arrested
yesterday afternoon by Officer Dodds.
When arrested he said he had found the
articles behind a stone in Coyle's yard.
He had spent the money and had hidden
the watch. He went with the officer to
Pine hill and found the watch. Judge
Bradstreet found probable cause and
bound him over to the next term of the
superior court under bonds of $3.50.
Christopher McMullen, a young boy,
was charged with willful injury to
property. L. Bartoli owns a store on
the corner of Cherry and North Main
streets. He also drives an ice cream
wagon. For some time he has been
troubled by boys destroying his signs
and throwing stones. Saturday the ton
OF his wagon was broken by a stone
thrown by young McMullen. Judge
Bradstreet fined the boy 81 and costs
which his mother paid.
Richard Houlihan was charged with
two cases for allowing minors to loiter
and one case for selling to a minor. He
keeps a saloon on Washington street.
Houlihan made a general denial of all
the complaints. A fine of SIS and costs,
was imposed in each case.
Cornelius Smith hailed from Meriden
yesterday with load of Silver city beer.
He fell into the hands of the police. He
was fined So and COSTS

Expressman Perry Loses His Horse,
Wagon and Tools.
The largest fire Waterbury has had
for number of years occurred at 1O:45
last night on Maple street, in the rear OF
the Novelty works.
The alarm was rung by Officer John
Sullivan from box No at Center
square, word of the fire having been
sent in to the district telegraph office.
On account of the distance from the
scene of confiagration to the box the fire
had gained good Roadway when the
companies arrived and they had hard
work in getting it under control.
Before the fire was finally extin-
guished two large barns belonging to
Irving G. Platt were completely de-
stroyed and II horse belonging to Henry
A. Perry, the exprcssnan, was burned
to crisp, also a wagon which he pur-
chased few days before and large
number of valuable tools Mr. Perry
says his loss is 5000.
Two barns belonging to Mrs Sarah
Stapleton were also ignited, one being
badly Quilted. The loss upon the build
ings will probably not exceed 81 500.
The fire is believed to be the work of
tramps, who were in the habit of Sleep
ing in the buildings.

ANOTHER INCOMPETENT OPERATOR

Freight Cars Thrown Into a Ravine
Near Greystone.
A disastrous wreck occurred on the
New England road early this morning
between Waterville and Greystone, at a
place known to railroad men as the
Lions Head" resulting in an injury
to Engineer Ravens, who was on the
train wrecked last week, and the de-
struction of two engines and more than
a dozen cars.
About $3.50 o'clock fast freight No 62, in
charge of Engineer Ravens left Water
bury bound east, having orders to cross
the west bound freight at Greystone.
A short distance the other side of
Waterville the train collided with terri
BILE force with freight train No 81,
bound for this city. When it was seen
that a collision was inevitable the crews
of both trains jumped for their lives and
all except Engineer Havens escaped I'M
hurt. He received an injury to his
knee and will be laid up for some time.
The wreck was one of the most COM
plete ever occurring in this vicinity
Both engines were reduced to old iron
and dozen cars were hurled from the
rails and lay piled on both sides of the
track. A wrecking train was despatched
from Hartford and the tracks were
cleared before noon. During the fore
noon passengers were transferred around
the wreck.
The accident was due to the negli-
gence of the operator at Greystone, who
cannot be found. He failed to give the
orders received from headquarters. The
operator is young fellow hardly out of
his teens and was sent to Greystone a
week ago to take the place of the man
sent here, to take the place of young
Kittredge.
The trip this morning was the first
one made by Engineer Ravens since the
wreck of last week. Engineer Considine
was running the down train.
DIR AXtelle is attending Engineer Ha-
vens, who is at the house of }. ID. McKil-
| lips on West Main street. He fears that
one of the bones in the knee is fractured
and if such is the fact the engineer will
! be permanently disabled.
Engineer Ravens received orders to
cross the down train at Wheaton's, while
the west bound train was sent past that
station to Waterville. The head brake
man first saw the train from the east
and yelled to Havens that another header
was coming. The latter with Fireman
Delhi Jumped at the same time, jus,
before the crash occurred.

ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT.
New Britain Man Killed at New Ha'


New Britain Man Killed at New Haven
Last Night.
Christopher Dahl of New Britain was
killed at New Haven last night Dahl
was in New Haven with an excursion
party. About $40 he started to go from
the depot platform to the excursion
train. The New York limited express
due at 8:04 was coming in at the time
about fifteen minutes late, but Dahl and
some other excursionists tried to cross
in front of it. All the rest of the party
got across safely but Dahl was struck
by the rapidly moving train and almost
instantly killed.
Daniel Wyatt, aged twenty-four, en-
ployed in Crocker's shipyard at New
London, fell from the masthead of a
schooner yesterday afternoon, striking
on his head. Death was instantaneous.
He was subject to fits, which probably
caused his fall.
The body of an unknown man was
found in the water near Short Beach
this morning.
A man named Doolittle was found
dead in his room at Bridgeport to-day.
He had evidently been dead for num-
Der of hours. Death was caused by
apoplexy.
