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 Tehazna County, for the
purpose Of promoting subdivision and settle
ment This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, 10
land Of fair average quality, and is offered as
from $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions Of
40, 80, 120, 16O 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, a. 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 i've years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per anuum.
making payments extending over a period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an oportunity to purchase
land of fair average a. Atty 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
300 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 thia
body Of land was the breaking up Of a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

THE BICYCLE QUESTION.
There is Good Sense in Every Line
of This.

Sacramento Evening Bee, May 19th.1
There are a great many gentlemen in
this community who ride bicycles. There
are a great many in this community who
ride bicycles who are not gentlemen. AS
those who are gentlemen have not been
able to restrain those who are not from
their careless, insolent and brutal acts,
there seems to be no help for the in
offensive people who do not ride bicycles
except to call upon the Trustees to force
all bicycle riders onto the streets. That
is where they properly belong. The side
walks belong to pedestrians, and to the
pedestrians alone. 1t Is only through the
sutferance of pedestrians that bicyclists
We're ever permitted to encroach upon the
sidewalks.
The bicyclists who are gentlemen must
recognize the fact that women and chill
dren must be protected. For bicyclist
to ring bell for pedestrians on the side
walk to move out of his way is the hight
Of impertinence. The bicyclist-if per-
mitted on the sidewalk at all-should
always give way TO the pedestrian. Some
of these bicycllsts, however, never even
ring a warning bell. Ii a woman hap
pens TO be in the way they will simply
run her down, and continue on with the
insolent remark that she should have
watched out for herself.
Our streets are in magnificent condition
now. There is absolutely no reason why
a bicyclist should take to the sidewalks.
Let the wheelers keep on the streets: and
if they Will not do it voluntarily, let
the Trustees and the police force them to
do it.

Great Periods In Literature.

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Bellows gave
the first Of his series of eight talks on
"Great Periods in Literature to an au-
dience that more than filled the school
rooms at 81 Danforth street. His sub
ject was "Homer and the Bible Poets"
In his opening remarks the lecturer
spoke of the common ideas that litera-
ture is merely to to instruct or enforce
moral lessons. It lis largely to inspire,
''Facts'' are good, but not of the highest
spiritual significance unless they are in
formed with the life and personality of a
great seer or poet. Homer is SO great,
because heiteaches largely of behavior,
simplicity of life and freedom. The
Greek idea is marked by its sanity, tenn
perauce. due sense of proportion with
nothing to excess. Greek art and Greek
tragedy do not allow mere honor for the
sake of honor. Homer's world is the
world Of free action, of unity and hon.
esty. The modern spirit, with it's ten
dency to analysis and introspection is
utterly at variance with the Homeric
ideal. The age of Homer is practically
the age of David and Solomon, and both
periods are marked by barbarism and
cruelty. But the Greek poem has the
''lucid sanity of SOUL" the calm clear
vision of Hellenic eyes, which gives
it more of artistic beauty than we are
wont, perhaps not wisely, to associate
with the Hebrew writer's.
In the matter of translations of Homer,
although Bryant is undoubtedly the most
completely satisfactory, yet there is
certain GOODNESS in his genius which does
not ally itself with the warm and vital
lines of the Iliad and Odyssey. Accord
ingly, the lecturer expressed his prefer
ence-inding more of the Homeric spirit
in them-for the paraphrases of Mr.. AL
fred Church, and the Rhythmic prose-
of Prof Palmer. Extracts were read
from both Had and Odyssey, the rous-
ing of Achilles, the parting of Hector
and Andromache, the description of the
palace of Alcinous and the return of
Ulysses, to illustrate the main charac-
teristics of the great poems. In Homer,
as in the Bible poets, and indeed in all
great poetry we find the ''uplifted power
Of an ideaP' which interprets life to us,
and reveals us the heights and depths Of
human experience.
The next lecture will be delivered, next
Monday afternoon, January 80, the SUBJ
ject being the cage of Pericles." On
account of the large number attending
the first lecture, it has been thought de-
sirable to have the succeeding lectures in
some small hall. An announcement will
be made in the Press of the place Sc
lected.

from Fernandina for Demarara. The
vessel was full of water. The people
were taken off in an exhausted condition.
For three days and nights they drifted
about without provisions and very little
clothing Almost everything was
washed overheard or SO soaked with
water as to be rendered useless. The
captains wife all that time remained on
the top house to keep watch while the
men pumped. She fell asleep at the end
of long vigil and dreamed of ship

ship coming straight to them. When
she awoke she saw the Carleton bearing

In reference to the comparative valu-
alton of the companies, Hon. B. F. Chad
bourne, until recently a member OF the

Western Union had made the sworn state
ment required by law. The assessors
could find no statement by the
Commercial Union and had
called before them Hon. Albion
Little, Seth L. Larrabee, ESQ.,, and Col.
ID. 5. Osgood of that company. These
gentlemen said that the Governor and
Council had relieved them of taxation,
their line being new one. Later, the
assessors found the Commercial Union
lines had been taxed at valuation said
to be $4,000. This year they had accord
ingly assessed tax at the valuation of
$4,000 and it wa their opinion that this
tax should be increased.

road commissioner at the expiration of

list of such persons as have worked out
or paid their highway taxes in whole or
in part and the amount which any one
has SO worked out or paid shall be cred
tied and allowed on the tax assessed

There are few things which have never

well known physicians, one in Boston,
two in New York, have said this. A re-
cent despatch from Hamburg in the

Remember that the Boston Globe said
editorially:
contagious diseases seldom attack
perfectly healthy people. Persons whose
vitality is low and whose general health
is impaired, are the first to fall preys to
epidemics.
DR.. John B. Bray of Bridgton, in re-
Spouse to inquiry, said:
Certainly, people should now look
sharply after their health. If Cholera
reaches our shores everyone should be
prepared physically, SO far as possible, to
withstand it. We should put our bod.
les in good condition, as well as our
premises. If the blood is foul, the liver
clogged, and the stomach out of order,
such a person is far more likely to be
