The Capay Valley Land Com
pany is Offering the most fertile
lands in this beautiful valley upor
terms that enable the purchaser
to pay Cor the land out of its OWL
product, viz: Interest only for five
years at FER cent. The only
condition imposed is, that a reas-
enable proportion Of the land pur-
chased shall be planted to fruit
trees or vines. Land may be
bought on this condi,: n on pay
ment of 20 per cent cash and the
remaining 80 per cent at the end
Of five years, with interest annu-
ally in advance; at Z per cent.
The various tracts owned by the
Capay Valley Land Company have
been subdivlded toto ten and twen-
ty acre lots, which are for sale at
prices varying from $50 to $3.50
per acre. Similar unimproved
land in Yaca Valley has recently
been sold at from $500 to 5000
per acre.
The Capay valley lands are I'M
der the most favorable climatic
conditions for the prosecution OF
profitable fruit growing; and the
locality has proved itself to be
one of the earliest in the State.
The railroad passes through all
the tracts owned by the Capay
Valley Hand Company, thus iusur-
ing exec lent shipping facilities; /;
and the land may now be pur-
chased in the immediate preximi-
ty of either the following stations:
Capay, Cadenaso, Surrey, Guinda,
Cashmere or Rumaey.
At many Of these places tine Or
chards Of the choicest and earliest
varieties of peaches and apricots
may already be seen; and during
the coming season considerable
additional acreage will be planted
out. One Of the recent sales made
by the company was that Of Tan
cred Tract, containing 600 acres
to a colony association. This tract
has been subdivided into forty
all of which will be plan
ted to fruit trees this season.
The fine orchards on the GUM
da Tract, where. 500 acres have
been sold, are especially worthy of
and it is a significant
fact that already several Of
the blocks are owned by success
full Vaca valley fruit-growers, who
expect to make their earliest ship
ments from here.
Too much stress canhot be laid
upon the great advantage to the
fruit grower Of being in al early
locality. In most cases it makes
the difference between success and
failure. The industrious orchar-
dist of Capay Valley may rest as
suled that he will derive all the

come.
The Capav Valley Land Co. has
an agent residing at Rumsey,
whose duty tits to show the var
ious tracts to and seekers.
Four townsites have been laid
out in different points in the val
ley, viz: Esparto, Cadennasso,
Guinda and Rumsey. Town lots
may now be purchased at reasona-
Bile prices and on easy terms.
The enterprlsing and flourish
ing town Of Espardo is situated at
the lower end of the valley, and
S125,000 worth Of substantial
buildings have already been erect
ed, including a fine four story
brick hotel, two large brick blocks
and water works, with pipes laid
in the streets, besides extensive
warehouses and numerous resi-
dences. The town also has a
postoffice, schoolhouse and a
weekly paper. and fine railroad
depot containing telegraph and ex-
press Offices.
Postofices have also been es-
tablished at Guinda and Rumsey.
This latter place situated at the
head Of the valley, is the present
terminus Of the railroad. The
comfortable little hotel makes ex-
cellent quarters for hunters as well
as land-seekers.
The advantages enjoyed by the
settler in Capay valley may be thus
concisely summed up.
A soil Of great fertility, yielding
bountifully every crop.
A soil and climate which VIII
ripen all kinds of fruit and vegeta
bles earlier than anywhere else in
the State.
A climate especially adapted to
the curing Of raisins and the dry
ing Of fruits, without the aid OF ar
tifcial evaporators-
A location that is central and
close to markets. Railroad COM
munieation which enables ship
ments to be made quickly and
cheaply. Lands which are sold
cheaper and and On better terms
than anywhere else in the State.
Take trip into Capay Valley
and convince yourself Of its many
advantages. Change cars at FL
mira and go through to Rumsey,
where the agent will meet you. if
you advised in time and drive yoa
down the Valley.

Robberies in Apartment Houses.

Flat robberies have become fashion
| able. In fact, ever since the average
family took to 'flat living" the burglar
and his associates have been at their
wits ends to know how to "burgle"
premises where so many eyes and ears
were open. But either such tenants have
grown careless in their seeming security
or the clever thief has discovered the
weak points in their armor, for num-
Der of robberies have been attempted
and carried out with more or less sue
tess. In apartment hotels, where the
entrances are watched by elevator boys
and janitors, there is much less risk for
occupants, but III fat houses, so called,
the opportunity to enter and rob, unless
every precaution be taken by the ten
ant, is undoubtedly great
1t would not be wise to indicate by
what means a very tyro Of burglar
might enter half the flats in town.
though perhaps the criminal gentry
know it as well as other folks; but it is
not amiss to remind absentees of the
day or summer that New York is full of
fiat thieves, and what New York has
Boston is bound to copy, even to its
faults and sins. Valuables like silver
ware and jewelry are rarely left in any
house during the summer by their own
ers; therefore it is not silver or jewelry
these thieves are after. Rugs, bric-a-
brac of a portable nature, furniture,
even, have been taken out bodily from
more than one New York flat, and in
one instance, where the tenant had
merely gone away for the day, every
article of clothing, costly furs and silk
gowns were packed up and carted off in
a wagon.
The moral of this is never to leave
home without some responsible person
remains behind to take charge and pre-
vent such disaster. But, according to
the present style of living, this is al
most impossible. There must come q
time, however, when both mistress and
maid wish to be ''out," and only
the cat can be made guardian of the
little establishment In that case the
unostentatious abode is its own best
protection, though the newly developed
fiat thief may have his own ideas in re-
gard to the game being worth the can

PURE

Mr.. Hayes, in resenting what he claimed
was misstatement, said that he did not
wear the collar of any corporation. and
that he did not prepare to knuckle down
to any man or set of men. Then he got
mad and withdrew from the convention.
If the county clerkship had been bal
loted for last evening, 7. II. Ward would
have been defeated. But now the
chances are that the ring will be able to
bring about his nomination. Combina-
tions will be effected by this morning
that will effect this result, in all proba-
bility. The bosses are uDquestionably
desirous OF having Mr.. Ward win. The
court house ring want him in the clerks
office, and combinations to that end will
be made. if such thing is possible.
A. B. Whitney is making hard fight
to be renominated for tax collector, and
despite his weak record in that Office his
aspirations seem to be meeting with
favor among the delegates. Nate B.
Walker is marshaling his forces in good
shape and will give Mr.. Whitney hard
fight.
With the other fights for Office there
is no practical change in the situation.
Mr.. Kelly seems to have lead-pipe
cinch for recorder, as does also Rollins
for auditor.
There is a new candidate in the field
for surveyor. His name is @. s. Comp
ton. He Is opposing Harry Stafford, the
incumbent. Stafford stood in with the
gang in the Second and Seventh wards,
and will probably be defeated.
The delegates do not seem to be lay
ing awake nights to give Mr.. Banbury
for a third time the nomination for
