SACRAMENTO. M


SACRAMENTO, March 18th.
EThe past week has been very quiet one in
market circles, so far as city trade is con-
cerned, though out-oftown business has
been fairly good. The latter days OF the week
showed some improvement, but not sufficient
to make up for the dullness during the pre-
ceding days. Produce of ali descriptions con-
tinue in good supply, prices generally being
weak. There have been plenty OF Ducks IN
market all week, but as the inquiry has ueen
light, they moved of slowly. There has been
little or no change in the situation so lar as
Dairy Produce is concerned supplles Delng
large and prices weak. There is an abundant
reach of all. All varieties of seasonable Vege-

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 and 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 $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 12o, 16o and $50 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 installments. Thus no part Of the prin-
cipal 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 SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 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 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
tlernent in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

What is the Reason :?

Simply that Mrs. Briggs has
more than she can attend to
and is obliged to sacrifice this
place. Where is it? 1t To-
Gated in Sacramento County,
on the American River, and
consists OF 191 acres, II miles
from the Sacramento and Fol-
som Railroad and 10 miles
from Sacramento. 1t consists
Of $50 acres all in ll-bearing
muscat grapes; has residence
Of 7 rooms, good dryer for dry
ing grapes, and water right,
which irrigates the whole
place.
This place was selected by G..
G. Briggs, who was consid-
cred one Of the best horticul-
turists in the State at his time.
He selected the best varieties Of
raisin grapes and superin-
tended planting them. The
place has cost over $4,000,
and it cannot be duplicated in
this State. 1t must be sold
within 80 days. There is only
$40, 900 required to be paid in
cash, balance can stand and be
paid out Of the proceeds from
the ranch.
There were over eight car
loads Of raisinS Of over 1000
pounds each shipped from this
place this year, besides the
large number that were sold
for the market. 1t is no exag-
geration to state that an indus
trious, frugal man can 90 upon
the place and pay for it out Of
the net proceeds in three years.
investigation will prove our
assertion to be correct. The
soil is as well adapted for rails
ins as any in this State.

GAS FOR RAILWAY CARS.

Plant Completed.

Plant Completed.
The Southern Pacific Company put into
operation on Saturday morning its new
gas works at Oakland Point. These gas
works are on the system that has been
adopted on many railroads in the United
States. They have capacity of 1880
feet day, and have been so constructed
that by comparatively small extension
the capacity can be doubled. The entire
plant is new
The object of these works is to supply
all the passenger, sleeping and dining
cars with gas for lighting purposes. Mr..
Curtis. the Chief of Motive Power and
Machinery, says the company has expert
mented for some time with electricity,
but has not discovered any feasible
method of using it, and has, with many
other railroads, adopted gas system.
The Union Pacific has similar works at
Omaha and the Rio Grande Western at
Ogden.

Ihs bstiefienrs With wolves d few miles
from iron River Sunday evening. Hell
der had been out hunting for deer pre-
sumably, and his gun was charged with
bucksliot. While scalnbling through
some bushes one barrel Of the gun was
discharged, and volley of shot entered
his left arm and right thigh. At the
time of the accident it was very fortunate
for him that he was near some houses Of
other homestoaders. After the discharge
of tho gun he lay unconscious on the
ground for quarters of an hour,
and after gaining consciousness his cries
attracted the homesteaders. and they
reached him just in time to save him
from a most frightful death. The
wolves, which at this season Of the year
are very vicious, had gathered about
him in large numbers, and they were
making preparations for great feast.
Heider was taken to Iron River, where
medical attendance was given him.
His wounds are not thought to be fatal

Girls In Business.

Very much has been said on the sub
ject of girls with independent incomes
or well to do parents going into business
or taking up any means of livelihood.
and severe and it would seem very TN
just criticisms have been INDUCED in.
1t is claimed by working women and
their champions that for girl with a
good home or an income to go into busi-
ness or take remunerative work to do is
unjust to those who are dependent on
their own exertions for living. Just
where the justice of such criticism
comes in it would be difficult for any
philosopher to decide. No one thinks it
strange Indeed it is quite the proper
thing, when boy on or before arriving
at maturity, goes out into the world to
earn his living. However wealthy his
father may be seems to make no differ
ence. Indeed under such circumstances
industry and application to business arc
looked upon as all the more praise
worthy, but for some mysterious reason
the girl is not allowed this privilege.
This appears to be but another of the
relics of barbarism which unfortunately
cling like barnacles to the ship of prog
ress.
Everybody has a right to earn living
or any portion of it by whatever honor
able occupation he may see fit to take
up. Whether it be q man or a woman
matters not.
There is plenty of work in the world
for both the boys and the girls.-New

~ her Illtle "euphulsnlS are grateful.
Among the better class of well bred
people compliments are not "laid on

result Of lifetime of effort to mako
ones self agreeable to everybody, so far
as one can do it within the limits of

we'll bred woman assists her wonder
fully here. She recalls clearly at the

the pleasant from the unpleasant, and
she invariably alludes in her remarks to
the pleasant. The transplanting, with
out its luxurious effusiveness, of this
good custom into the homo life and into
the narrow circles of the "outs" could
result only in good.-New York Times.

Savage Indifference to Pain.

Generally speaking, the more civilized
and refined races are more sensitive to
pain than bagbarous and uncivilized
races. This was proved by DR.. Felkin
in series of carefully planned expert
lnents which he made upon Arabs, me-
groes and Europeans. The stoical forti-
tude of the Arabs he considered due to
peculiar mental characteristics, of which
mental repression, self control and
dogged endurance were the leading fea-
lures. The indifference to pain in ne
groes he thought was due to diminished
general sensibility, and he was led to be-
lieve that the relative sersibility of Euro
peans, Arabs and negroes was in the
proportion of one, two and three. A
New Zealander has been known to chop
on his great toes SO that he might get on
q pair of boots which had been given to
him. On one occasion native Austria
Ian came TO a settlement to get wood
en- leg, his own leg being burned away
at the knee. 1t had been wounded so Sc
gerely that amputation was necessary,
and as his tribe had no appliances to stop
the flow of blood his leg had been simply
burned off.-Elmira Telegram.
