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
nom SO to $40 per acre. in subdivisions of
40, so, 100, 100 and 800 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 i've equal an.
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin.
cipsl is TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay hye equal annual installments, with in.
terest at the rate of 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 $40 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
gpond 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 SEQ 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 a result easy OF
accomplishment
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 diligent husbandry.

MONAGHAN'S MISTAKE.
A Jury Finds "Yorkey'' Guilty of

A Jury Finds "Yorkey'' Guilty of
Robbing a Woman.
The trial of L. j., alias "Yorkey'' Mon
Afghan, was concluded in Judge Johnsou's
court yesterday afternoon. Monaghan
was charged with robbing a Mrs. Hyden
last January at the depot in this city.
The proceedings were somewhat en-
livened by Judge Johnson filming Edward
McGraw. John Kelly and William Pitt
Eldred $40 each for contempt of court in
not showing up as witnesses as early as
they were wanted.
The men are all bartenders, and each
gave as his excuse for being late that he
had long watch and oversight himself.
Judge johnson remarked that. as mat
ters had come to that point-the SHUTTING
down of the court or the closing of a sa7
loon-he desired to impress upon the
tardy witnesses the fact that the latter
must give way.
The case was finally argued and sub
mitted, and the jury was not long in re-
turning verdict of guilty.
1t looks as if 1orkey had reached the
end of his tether at last, and must serve
the State for awhile.

SHERIFF oNEILs OATH

He Says He Can Prove That He Duly
Qualified.
There was some talk yesterday about
the Courthouse of the probability of pro-
ceedings being taken to declare the Office
of Sheriff vacant.
The ground therefor is that that official
neglected to subscribe his name to his
oath Of of1ice-in other words, that he did
not qualify according to law.
The situation is similar to that of Super
visor Morrison, to GUST whom j. c. Jones
has already commenced proceedings.
Sheriff ONeil treats the matter lightly.
lie says he took the oath Of office all
straight enough, and that he can prove it
by two eye-aud-ear witnesses.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 21.-The Ha-

ment, though he has been ready and
willing to do so. He AYERS that Blount's
evidence consists exclusively of pre-
pared affidavits or answers to leading
questions put by himself (Blount) at
private interviews. He states that
there was no cross examination Of wit
nesses nor opportunity to give con.
tradiction or explain evidence.
He says at no time did Minister

troops would assist in overthrowing
the queen or the establishing of the
provisional government, nor did the

landed to protect American citizens

tween the queen and the citizens and

IN Z RI
There was absolutely no attempt at
concealment from the government of
the objects and intentions of the COM
mittee. The queen, her cabinet and
supporters were utterly demoralized,
suspicious of one another and devoid
of leadership. The committee and its
supporters were united and had ample
force to execute their purpose, They
knew precisely what they wanted and
proceeded with intelligent delibera-
ton. thoroughness and confidence to
do it.
He then follows with an account of
the revolution, avering it began when
Queen Lilioukalani tried to promul-
gate the new constitution. Details of
his own part therein follow, justifying
every action taken by himself or any
member of the COMMITTEES. He states
that the United States troops were
scattered about the city instead of be-
ing massed in one place, as stated by
Blount.
The rest of the facts, such as the
forming of the provisional govern
ment, selecting it's officers, etc., are
also detailed by Thurston, who states
the facts materially different from the
manner in which they are detailed by
Blount. Thurston says it would not
be becoming in him to make an official
statement regarding Blount's report,
inasmuch he has not been officially
informed of its contents.

degrees over the extreme eastern por-
ton of the coast district. The indica-
lions are that the coming week will
open with temperature remaining be-
low the average.
Cotton-There has been but little
cotton picked during the week on ac-
count of the showery weather and
when it clears up picking will progress
slowly as farmers will be generally
busy sowing wheat. Cotton that was
still growing over some portions of the
state was killed by the severe cold
weather during the latter part of the
week. There was good deal of cot
ton still coming into market in some
parts of the state and it is believed
that farmers will generally hold back
the crop from the market for better
prices until necessity compels them to
sell and hence there will be some cot
ton coming into market throuhout the
winter.
Other crops-Plowing for wheat has
been progressing nicely when the
weather would admit of it and the
ground is generally in good condition,
and when it clears up blowing and
sowing wheat will be the order of the
day. Wheat sown before the last rains
is coming up nicely and that that was
sown early is looking much richer in
color. If weather should prove favor.
able for the next few weeks there will
be great deal of wheat sewn and
probably more than was expected at
last report.
Grass has improved considerably
over the Southern portion of the state
since the drouth has beer broken, but
the rains were generally too late to be
of any other material benefit over por-
tions of the state, as the cold weather
had generally stopped the growth OF
grass in those sections.
There were great many fall vege.
tables raised along the coast, notwith
standing the droUth. and in some
places nice, green gardens can yet be
found, and while vegetables were
still growing at distance of from 80 to
200 miles from the coast they were
slightly injured by the frosts during
the week which has just passed.
Water is generally plentiful except
over the western portion of the state
where more rain is needed to make
running water more plentiful for cat.
