two saw the figure of a young
man rushing up the hill far back in
the enclosure evidently making in the
direction of the town. Then all was
still and they saw all was over with
the victim. Christie lay on her left
side, her white skirts covered with
blood from a wound in the back and
another in the head. As Fanny
looked upon her dead sister her highly
strung system collapsed and with a
cry she sank on the ground by the
dead girls side.
WENT BACK TO HIS DEN.
The cruel assailant with smoking
revolver in hand, returned to his hid
ing place in the Warden's barn and
was there looking out between the
boards when the lifeless body of his
victim was being carried into the sor-
row stricken home. There he remain
ell in concealment for more than q
month. He was captured August 18th
after seige of ten hours. He was
identified as George H. Abbott by
his relatives, by boyhood friends, by
officers who had arrested
him previously and by author
titles from the state prison at Windsor,
Vermont. He was tried and senten-
ced. Almy in prison had been quiet,
read much, talked little and gave his
guards no trouble. The desperation
of the criminal, however, aroused the
suspicion of his keepers and resulted
in the adoption of a course unparal-
elled in New Hampshire as the
last ten days of his life was passed
beneath the surveillance of a death
watch. Day and night he was SO
guarded, his cell was changed and he
was placed beyond the possibility of
suicide in order that justice might
have its own end. Expiration to-day
has been complete.

THE DIRECT ROUTE EAST.

The Ohio and Mississippi Railway, run
ming east from st. Louis, is the short and
direct line to the National Capital, and
offers through train service which is not
e4ualed by any other line. 1t is, properly
speaking, the only direct through car line
from the Mississippi River to Washington.
The Ohio and Mississippi Railway is
the only line running all trains through
solid from st. Louis to Cincinnati; the
time being less than ten hours; and the
only line running double daily lines Of

the travelling public in practice it almost
realizes the ambition OF every railroad
management-to have trains always on
time.
The popularity OF the o. & NJ. Railway
compels it to run three daily trains to Gin
cinnati and two to Louisville. to accommo-
date it, steadily increasing travel; fully
95 per cent of the business from st. Louis

credited to the q. Il NJ.

ARARE 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 1rst
class sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land OF lair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, 50, 100, 16o 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 tnstallments Thus no part OF the prin
cipnl 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 of fair average quality at $40 per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre.
with other grades OF land at prices to CORE
spond be.ween these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
peeially adapted for fruitgrowing, 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 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
accomp plishment.
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 dillgent husbandry.

OF the large quantity of fruit brought to
this point for shipment from the orchards
on the river between here aud Isleton.
Some idea of the magnitude of the out
put may be gained however from the
statement that the Apache, Modoc and
Acme have brought up within the past
month over 100000 pounds, which has
been shipped to the East by the various
fruit firms here. When to this is added
all the fruit that is brought in from other
parts OF the county, people need not
wonder that so many train loads OF fruit
are sent from Sacramento during the sea-
son. An immense quantity of canta-
loupes and watermelons are also raised
and shipped from this point.
