THE REVIEW AND MUSTER.
The review on Monday evening was
conducted as required by the revised tao
tics, and passed off as smoothly as could
be expected, considering the crowded
condition of the armory, which is en-
The regulation distance between the men
was not preserved, and most of the oti-
GERS do not look toward the reviewing
officers in passing at a salute.
The State medals for 1891 were pre-
sented, and none of the gold ones fell to
the lot of the local troops. General Allen
and Assistant Adjutant-General Murray
were interested spectators of the ceremo-
nies, and the former addressed the troops
briefly, mplimenting them on their ap
pearance.
DIVISION ENoAMPMENT.
There is going to be an effort made to
hold a Division Encampment this year,
and it is thought that the funds will hold
out if some point near San Francisco is
selected, as the saving in transportation
would be quite an item.
The idea put forth is that ground can
be had near Alameda, and that the San
francisco troops could march to camp,
and the money thereby saved could be
used in transporting the troops from the
interior. This matter will probably be
settled at the meeting of officers to be
haI1 in Coz cic +hoO of fbic
month, which, it is understood, meets
with the approval of General Dimond,
the Division Commander.
There can be no particular objection to
division camp if the Commander will
allow most of the time to be devoted to
company and battalion evolutions, which
are now needed more than ever on ac-
count Of the changes in the drill.
BRIGADE STAFF TROPHY.
The six companies of the First Artil-
lery are preparing to enter into the COM
petition for the handsome guidon to be
presented by the brigade staff to the COM
pany showing the largest attendance at
drill during the months of April. May
and June. Majors Dillman, Houghton,
Gilchrist and Sherburn will enter on their
| duties commencing with the first drill
of the city troops in April, and Captains
Nihell and Cursor will act for Companies
G and +, i'll Nevada City and Woodland.
| The staff officers of both brigade and
regiment are expected to attend the COM
pany drills as often as possible. and by
doing so will encourage larger attend
ance and at the same time be perfecting
themselves in their duties under the re-
vised tactics.
GENERAL NOTES.
| Major Welch, Surgeon on Colonel
Guthrie's staff, is to be commended
as staff officer, having come all the way
from San Francisco to attend the inspec-
ton and muster.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for SO
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 SIC to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 12O, $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 raw
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 z per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over a 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
800 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 $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down 10 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 large

bridge. 1t took place ON the Brooklyn
side one morning last week, when the
wage workers We're hurrying 70 the

kept in state of suspense for minutes
that seemed ages
To explain the feat accomplished, you
remember how the entrances are ar
ranged-a ticket Office on either side, be-
tween them two iron parallel bars 10

ings is space through which YOU pass
ON to the ''chopping boxes, where tickets

wished TO buy ticket There would
have been less difficulty had il not been
for the umbrella IL was thrust under
the old lady's arm as a man poses his
umbrella when going up the ~" stairs

The old lady stepped into the middle
space, and while the umbrella swung
round like a tollgate bar, closing the
space behind her, she reached over TO
the ticket Office and calmly proceeded 10
open her purse, tumble roll of bills,
finally select one, and with both arms
stop the passing of pedestrians until y
disgusted lot of humanity was damned
With the umbrella posed like an in
fantryman's bayonet fixed to repel caval-
ry the old lady and her gray hairs held
the fort. At last her pennies and tickets
had been picked up one by one. She
gave way and the crowd surged around

Historv OF an African Boat.

A little vessel having a remarkable
history has piled for years on Lake Tan
ganyika. Her story illustrates the prog
ress IN that region from slavery toward
civilization. The boat, known as the
Cafabash, was originally a huge tree
trunk, cut down by the axes of the ma
tives with enormous labor, and then
with ak and adj and fire nodded into
shape. Boats like the Calabash are ex-
cenent sea vessels, though in their lines
they suggest rather clumsy hippopota-
mus than a swan.
On one of her voyages, after she had
served as trading canoe for two years,
she entered the port of Ujiji, where she
was bought by an Mswahili slave trader
For three years she piled back and forth
across the lake, bringing cargoes Of
wretched men, women and children 10
the Ujiji slave market One day load
of slaves had just been landed on the
shore when Mr.. Hore, who had recently
come to Ujiji as an agent of the London
Missionary society, saw the little craft
and decided that she was just about
what he needed for exploratory voyages
around the lake.
He succeeded in purchasing her, and
the little boat was once more launched
upon Tanganyika as the first missionary
vessel on the lake. Consecrated to the
cause of peace she became known in
time to every tribe as the harbinger Of

We have to be governed very largely
by the analogies Of nature whenever We
venture into the realm of the possibili-
ties and the unknown, and there is no
analogy in nature Of something being
given for nothing. The seed has 70
push through the ground to find the sun;
the tree has TO draw its sap mp from un-
seen sources 10 whirl forth it's buds; the
bud itself has to force its way through
obstacles of bark and fiber; the bird has
to build it's nest with careful endeavor
and many journeys ere it feels the little
wings beneath its breast; the gold has to
be mined, the precious stone dug from
the matrix; the diamond has TO undergo
fierce processes of grinding and securing
before its facets shine like living light.
Struggle is the rule of life. Were 1t
otherwise it would seem as though we
might all of us have been put upon the
planet in conditions Of luxury and ease
and eminence that would require nb
effort on our part, and leave us free for
all the enjoyment the world affords.
But what soft, untempersd, worthless

So early were collectors in California,
and so universal was the interest felt in
Europe over the new plants of the Pa
cific coast, that many trees Of sequoias
and other superb conifers were planted
in the parks of England, France and
Italy long before the discovery of gold.
Wealthy CaHfornians, as early as 1855,
visiting Europe, were surprised 10 find
how popular were the brilliant ANNALS,
Towering shrubs, vines and trees OF
their own state. Returning they often
urged neighbors to cultivate more Of the
native plants, but with little effect.

Some new ideas have lately attracted
attention in the matter Of pavements.
Among these is the paving Of bridge
by German engineer with india rub
ber, the result having been so satisfac-

being that it is more durable than
asphalt and not slippery.
