A RARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 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 SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 120, 160 and $40 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 instalments, with in
terest at the rate of z 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 espe-
cially 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 $40 an acre. on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers q 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
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

In the present case, the account having
been originally settled as of May l, 1855,
but the decision of the court not having
been made until February Is, 1889, and
the defendants having in the meantime
made expenditures and received income
from the property, a supplemental ac-
count was required. When the court
came to settle that supplemental account
it found THAT since the trial of said cause,
on the lst day of May, 1855, and ,up to
said 10Th day OF June, 1885, the said de-
fendants have expended on behalf of said
estate the sum Of $1,000 25, and have re-
ceived as. proceeds of said property the
sum of S4.lS6 AZ, leaving due to the de-
PENDANTS for expenditure over and above
receipts, in addition TO the said sum Of
S29, l52 80, the sum of 81, 113 IS, making n
total of s3l,926 q now due and owing
from the plaintiff to the dcfendants.''
Necannot say from this statement in
the decree that proper computation of
the amount TO which the defendants We're
entitled was not properly made by the
court, inasmuch as it is not shown ut
what dates the moneys were respectively
received or expended by the defendants
We find no error in that portion of the
judgment from which the defendants
have appealed, and it is, therefore,

The excellent electrical device for Civ
ing an alarm when n ship deviates from
her course, which was the subject of a
recent invention, is being adopted on a
large number of American ships. The
compass card carries IA light wire cleo
t~rically connected with n metallic cup at
the center containing a few drops of
mercury. This wire is bent over the
edge of the compass, and as long as the
ship maintains its course the wire re-
mains out of contact with either of two
metallic stops placed at a certain dis
tance on either side Of the bent end of
the wire. Should, however, the vessel
depart from its ours the wire fixed to
the card is brought into ontac with one
or other of the stops, closing the circuit,
and ringing a bell in the captains cabin
or the navigator's room.-New York

The friends of William B. Hays, Jr.,
of Liberty street, were very much con-
cerned on Saturday by an re-
port regarding his health, which was
due to an error on the part of a telegraph
operator. Mr.. Hays went to Mount
Clemens, Mich, some time ago in search
of relief from an attack of inhammatory
rheumatism. In reply to an inquiry
from a relative in the city regarding
when he would return home, a telegram
was received to the effect hat Mr.. Hays
wouldn't live twenty-four hours"
y Very naturally his friends here were
alarmed, but were treasured on receipt
of another message saying he would
leave for home in t~wenty-four hours. In
the original message the operator read
live" for ~''leave," hence the mistake

In reply to n letter of complaint pub
lished in Forest and Stream the United
States fish commissioners give an ex-
PLANTATION of their apparent neglect of
the fish in the upper Mississippi. The
complainant says in his letter hat while
on the river between Dubuque and St
Louis no saw tons of black bass and
great northern pike rotting in shallow
pools, wherein they had been left by the
falling of the river, and asks why the
fish commission does not scoop them up
and transport them to safer waters.
In 1888, say the commissioners, two
cars of the commission were lent to the
Illinois commissioners, together with the
necessary number of men, for the pur-
pose of rescuing the fish left in the pools
along the river. From July 10 to Oct. 8
twenty-six car loads of fish were rescued
and transported to Illinois waters. In
1899 two cars were used, and in 1890
three. The fish deposited were from 4
to Ia inches long.
Since then the government has been
actively engaged il. the work on a large
scale, and has rescued many millions of
valuable food fishes. The commission
ers say that all states subject to any con-
siderable mortality of fish life should
take steps Immediately to rescue the fish.

Every now and then | see an old man
walking down Pennsylvania avenue with
his head bent in thought, paying little
attention to the people he passes, but
stopping now and then to look into a
store window. or to look at the portraits
displayed in front of the photograph gal
leries which abound on that street. At
hrst glance there is nothing particularly
striking in his appearance. He is slen-
der and not o medium height, and
dresses in clothes of a sort of brownish
gray color. A sandy gray beard hangs
IN a point over his shirt front, and he
always wears a derby hat.
But if he turns his face full toward
you your attention is at once attracted
by a mass of blue spots TIN :kly pepper
ing his cheeks, eyelids and forehead,
which indicate that he has literally
smelt powder-smelt it in close quar-
tiers. Big grains of the deadly explosive
have been driven deep inUo his flesh. II
was a bursting shell from the ram Mer-
rimac hat so marked him for life, and
h mouth of the gun was not far from
his face, for they fought in close quar-
tiers. Probably not one person out of n
thousand who pass him on the avenue
knows who he is; he is almost lost to
sight and perhaps little thought Of, but
he is among the very last of the great
commanders Of the war who still lnger.
He is Admiral Worden, who com
manded the Monitor, defeating the Mer-
rimac, which threatened the destruction
of the United States fleet at Hampton
roads. The shot that SCARED him was
fired fairly against the peephole in the
turret of the Monitor at which he had
his eye watching the course Of the YES
sci. He ives very quietly here in rather
a fine house on X street. 1t Is difficult
to get him to say anything about him
self or about the battle in which he won
distinction. BE eschews all articles of
dress which would indicate his profess

They Merely Kissed Each other.

That kissing, even when purely volun-
tary on both sides, constitutes assault
and battery is a discovery which it has
remained for that sapient and most orig
inal body, the Philadelphia grand jury,
to make. There is no doubt about the
discovery, however, as Isaac Purnell and
Sallie Senseman, who are now languish-
ing in Moyamehsing prison under a bill
of indictment charging them with as
sault and battery on each other, can
swear that they did nothing more serious
han exchange kisses, accompanied by
hugs.
They met on the evening of June l
near Twentieth and Green streets, and
apparently it was a case OF love at first
sight. They strolled along the street
happy in each others company. Their
demonstrations of affection attracted the
attention of Officer Stanton, of the Ninth
police district, and a private Waterman.
The officer hauled them off to the station
house at Twentythird and Brown streets,
and n magistrate committed them the
next day to Moyamensiug.
Isaac and Sallie were a good deal as,
tonished ut this severe punishment for
their little ~escapade, but their amaze
ment was increased on Friday when
they were told that they had beer in
dicted by the grand jury for assault and
battery on each other, and that their of
Tense was so fragrant that it might take
them to Cherry Hill.-Philadelphia Rec

An abnormally. large dog otter was
caught at the end of last week in the
river Cherwell, close to the bathing
place known rs Loggerhead, near the
University park, in a rabbit trap. 1t
appears that Mr.. Charles Cox. the pro-
prietor of the bathing place, in the early
part Of the week set the trap close to the
river side for the purpose of catching a
rat, and on looking for it the next morn
ing it was nowhere to be seen.
After the lapse Of three days the chain
of the trap was seen in the water, and
on n hitCher being obtained an otter,
caught by one of the f~orcfeet at the joint,
was brought to the surface. The otter
thus weighted had been unable TO rise
from the bottom to obtain air, aud so
was drowned. 1t weighed "a pounds
and measured 3 feet o inches from the
nose to the tip Of the falkland and
Water.
