KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax,
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Lew B. HARRIS.
Death of One Of the Early Mayors Of
Sacramento.
A Man Who Had Been a Prominent
Figure in the States History
Sketch of His Life.

Word has been received from San
Diego of the death in that city Of Lew b.
Harris, formerly of this city. Mr.. Harris
visited here recently, being the guest of
the family of the late Judge John Heard.
Although then quite feeble, he had the
appearance of man who might hope to
live several years.
Mr.. Harris was one Of the early resi-
dents Of this city, and in 1866 was elected
Mayor by the KnowNothing party, his
opponent being the late B. B. Redding
He came to California in 1854 from Texas,
where a county had been named after his
family. He had just married the widow
of Charles l.. Dell, lady of refinement
and cultare and who soon became promi-
nent in this city, which then outranked
San Francisco as a society center.
1t is related in a San Francisco paper
that in 1856 Samuel Norris, owner of the
Norris Grant, since owned by Haggin
q Tevis, where Mr.. Haggin has his cele-
DRAFTED horse breeding farm, contracted
with Mr.. and Mrs. Harris for an eX-
change of California and Texas property.
Norris conveyed land and an interest in
the Amerlcanriver toll bridge, the whole
valued at SOL, $50, paying Mrs. Harris
~, lZO in cash, and she in turn conveyed
to Norris Texas property consisting of
slaves, horses, cattle and other person.
atty.
Shortly afterward Norris went to Texas
to take his property. Concluding that
his bill of sale did not convey a good title,
and that the property was different, both
| in quantity and character from what it
was represented to be, he came back to
this State without taking possession, and
! brought suit to rescind the contract. The
defendants prevailed in both the lower
and the Supreme Court. Judge Field
! held that the charges OF fraudulent mis-
! representation were not supported by the
| evidence-indeed, they were abandoned
| by the attorneys for Norris.
This was the first decision in California,
| and one of the first i'll America, in which
1t was held that decedent could by will
| invest his executor with power to control
and dispose of his real as well as per-
sonal estate, free from the control or
guidance of any court of probate, or any
other court OF this or any other State"
| The quoted words are those used by Mrs.
Harris first husband in his will.
The rule established in this case has
been the law ever since, although the
California Code now provides that such
sales by executors must be confirmed by
the court. Norris III this suit had made the
point that Mrs. Harris could not dispose
of her first husbands estate without the
sanction of the court, Notwithstanding
the authority given in the first husband's
will.
| In 1867 Mr.. Harris accepted deputy
ship from Secretary of State III. L..
Nichols, which position he held during
the latter's term of Office. Shortly after
ward he and his family removed to San
francisco, where they had since resided.
For the last fifteen years he had been a
Notary Public in that city.
The remains will be brought to Sacra-
nentO for interment

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 ana 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 $40 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 for 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 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 7 per cent. per annum,
Dlaklng payments eEtending 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 truit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
S1OO 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 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 large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligeut husbandry.
