MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
John Elliot, a Fisherman, Has Bee
Missing All Week.

John Elliot. Fisherman, Has Been
Missing All Week.
Last Sunday night ohm Elliot. fisher
man, who resided in Slater's Addition, a
short distance back of the Pioneer Mills.
babe his wife good evening, saying that
he was going out for a walk, and his fail
ure TO return up to the present time has
led to many conjectures as to his where
abouts.
RECORD UNION reporter visited his
wife last evening, and from her learned
that Elliot, who has been following the
avocation of fisherman, last week lost
his net, which was his source of earning
living, since which time he has been
brooding over his misfortune, but she
does not believe that 1t affected him suf-
hclently to have caused him to desert her
or take his life. She says her marriage
relations have been of the most cordial
nature, and that no disagreements had
occurred between them which should
cause him to leave her and his four chill
dren.
On Sunday evening the oldest daughter
claims to have heard cry for help. but
as loud cries are common in that neigh
borhood and across the river, Mrs. Elliot
does not attach much importance to the
TACT, and believes that her husband has
gone into the country in search of en-
ployment, and that she will hear from
him in few days.
Mrs. Elliot also denies that she is at
present in a destitute condition and has
been compelled to live on the charity of
neighbors, but says that with four young
children TO care tor-one babe in arms
II may become necessary, should her hus-
band not return in short time, to apply
to her friends for some assistance, but not
to the general public.
The approach to the residence is, owing
TO nigh water, a very tortuous and dam
gerous one, over narrow planks and
porches, and in the dark ness it would be
no difficult matter for anyone to fall off
into the stream; but as Elliot was not a
man who INDUCED in intoX icating liquor
to any extent, she cherishes the belief
that no such fate has befallen him.
There is also story current that Elliot
was seen to board train late on Sunday
night, and that he remarked to an ac-
quaintance that he was going to leave
town. If so, his family should be in
formed thereof by the person who talked
with him,

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
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
iand OF fair average quality, and is offered at
nom $40 TO $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 100, 100 and 500 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 Tor three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first Of five equal ar
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin.
clpal 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 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 fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from 500 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekcrs that this is an 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 up of a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
Element in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

There is law on the territorial statutes which provides that every physician practicing his profession must register his place of residence, bis name and place of birth with the recorder of the county whers he engages in the practice of medicine. Also that a copy of his diploma must be filed .:for record, together with an affidavit to the effect that he is the identical person to whom the diploma is issued. A failure to comply with these provisions is a mlsdemeanor and is punishable by Q fine not to exceed $500 and by inn prisonment in the county jail not to exceed six months.
 This item is for the benefit of specialists, who seem to think that Arizona affords 3 good field for their practice, that by a proper observ- 'nce of the aforesaid statute they nay avoid trouble.
