OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to 500 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, 12o, 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
tins 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 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 6f fair average quality at SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 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
S10o an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is az opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
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 mp OF large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlenent in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

LONDON, Nov. 10.-The Pail Hall Ca
eette says: DR.. Nansen's prospects of
reaching the North Pole are greatly i'm
proved. Norwegian seal hunters. just
returned from the extreme northern part
OF Norway, report that at the time they
were there Nansen's expedition was en-
tering the Kara Sea. This was in August,
and the seal hunters were then able to
cruise freely in northern parts around
Nova Zembla and the islands north by
east, east and west. The sealers add that
over an area of twenty to thirty miles
there was no ice. and they could judge
from the waves that the sea was quite
clear of ice further north.
They add that there is every probable
ity that the Fran had gone through the
otherwise generally ice-choked Kara Sea
in few days after leaving Jugur Strait.
In all their experience in high ATTITUDES
the seas had never been so free of ice. A
letter from Nansen adds that the winds
from the south were particularly favor
able, driving the ice still further north.

Paris, and was likewise the originator
OF the sign language, by which is I'M
derstood the language of motion, con-
veying ideas by signs to the deaf, as we
convey them by sounds to those who

sign language is that 1t can be used to
convey ideas to mankind generally. An

WASHINGTON, June 1.-[Special j
New York state democrats, who belong
to the Hill or SNAP" element of the
party, assert that the president delivered
to them a direct slap in the face when
he appointed John B. Riley, of Platts-
burg as United States consul general to
Ottawa. Riley was an "anti. snap" dem
ocrat who lost his office as chief exami-
ner of the New York state civil service
commission through his allegiance to the
cause of the a~nti-machine element in the
state. He was backed for a consulate by
such men as Mowrey, Tracey, Weed and
others Of the anti machine element in the
politics Of the state.
His appointment emphasizes the re.
port that all the machine element are to
be turned down." and that no man who
is known to have been affiliated with the
Hill wing of the party will receive any
consideration. 1t is problble that a
knowledge of the presidents determina-
ton is responsible for the fact that Hill
and Murphy have declined to make any
recommendations. The latter, in a let
ter to a friend here received this week,
declares that he believes it useless to en-
dorse any one, as his endorsement might
do more harm than good.
