GRASS VALLEY SOLDIERS.
The New Company Regularly Mus
tered Into Service.
It Is Now Part of the First Artillery
Interesting Social Features
The Banquet, Toasts, Etc.

The new company (H) of the First Ar
tillery, at Grass Valley, was mustered
into the service and elected it's officers on
Saturday evening. Colonies Guthrie,
Hubbard Mckee, Captain Hall and the
/ brigade commander we're present from
Sacramento. There were tifty-1ive mem
bers at roll-call out of a total of fifty
seven.
The personnel of the new company is
of high order, as the members were
carefully selected by the men who were
the prime movers in the organization OF
the new company, the idea being that it
would be preferable to have an active
membership Of some sixty than one
hundred and over on paper.
The election for officers was conducted
! under the supervision Of Thomas Orhet,
the regularly appointed organizer. Peter
| Il. Riley, a graduate of the State Uni
versity and an eX-Otfcer of the Third In
fantry, n. q. O., was elected Captain;
| George w. Fletcher, also a graduate of
| the University, First Lieutenant, and j..
K. Tyrrell, who has had experience as a
National Gnardsmau, Second LIeuten-
ant.
The company seems to be particularly
fortunate in it's selection of officers,
as the gentlemen elected are bright and
intelligent and stand high in the COM
munity.
After the organization was completed
tine banquet was spread at Martin S
and at which all mem bers of the COM
pany, press and several leading citizens
OF Grass Valley were present. Captain
flley acted as master of ceremonies, and
under his mastery management the time
passed so pleasantly that it was nearly 3
O'Clock A. NJ. when good-nights were eX-
changed.
The regular toasts were responded to
as follows: The President" standing);
The Governor Of California" by Cen
eral Sheenan; The National Guard" by
Colonel Mch ee; The Adjutant- General, J"
by Colonel Hubbard; The First Artil-
lery," by Colonel Guthrie; "Our Sister
Companies" by Captain Hall; Com
pany H." by Captain Riley; 1.-The
Ladies'" by Lieutenant Fletcher, and
The Colors," by Lieutenant TyrreIl.
Many other toasts and sentiments were
proposed ana responded to ably by mem
bers of the company, among which were
The Press" by Mr.. Champion of the
1id,1lgS, and the "RECoRp- UNION" by
Max Merten, a young banker of Grass
Valley, who ably seconded CAPTAIN
Riley in the successful carrying out OF the
entertainment.
The remarks made in behalf of Gov
ernor Mark ham were particularly we'll
received by the large party, indicating
the esteem felt for him as Commander Of
Chief by the residents of the pretty
mountain city.
! Unless all signs fail, Grass Valley will
have reason to feel proud of its company
at the next encampment, and if Auburn
and Vallejo can get such a start in the
membership Of their respective COM
panies the First Artillery Will have rea-
son to boast of its triplets.
The Vallejo company will be organized
next Saturday. the 10th, and the company
at Auburn on the 18th.

OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

Inc 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 $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
10, so, 100, 100 and 32O 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.
cipal is to be paid tor 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 q 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 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 $50 to
500 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 ut $50
All 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.
