Old Coaching DAYS.

In 1925 driving had become fine art
horses were good; the coach and its ap-
pointments perfect, and both coachmen
and guards We're superior to the men of
ten or twenty years previously. Several
broken-down gentlemen took to the pro-

son, Mr. Gwynne and "the BarOnet,"
Sir st. Vincent Cotton. OF the less aris-
tocratic coachmen, the most celebrated
were Tim Carter, who died so lately as
last March, and Robert Snow.
Il should be rememb bered that the old
school drove heavily laden coaches over
Indifferent roads. The result was that
horses seldom lasted more than two or
three years, and much cruelty was un-
doubtedly practiced. 81 find the ami

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 $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 120, 160 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 CT 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 z 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
S4OO an acre. An examination OF tne Iand
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 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.

Blockaders and Blockadlng.

It has been proved that the electric
light used by blOckading vessels is not
sufficient to discover vessels bent on es-
cape, particularly if their hulls are painted
black or gray. Its effect is uncertain, and
in war it would draw the fire Of the
enemy upon the ship by which it is dis
played. 1t has been further shown that,
for the use of torpedoes, the blockaded
squadron has considerable advantages
over the blockaders. In it's port it can
quickly choose the moment for the at
tack, can constantly give trouble to its
opponent, who is forced to defend himself
by nets and other contrivances, and may
retire when it likes to its refuge, and
give it's companies rest. while the crews
of the blockading squadron must be con-
stantly on the lookout.
This was evidently the reason why Ad-
miral Tryon did not attempt to escape
during the first night of the blockade, but
only when his adyersaries had been worn
out by watching.
The blockaded squadron has command
OF the telegraph; the blockading can only
communicate by its dispatch boats.
Finally, the blockaded ships are always
able to replenish their bunkers, while,
when the sea is rough, coaling is awk-
ward business for the blockading squad
ron. ct this is a necessity in real war,
where bIockades must last for a consider
aDIB 4SuSlu OF Ll0le.
In his work, 1.-THE Influence of Sea
Power Upon the French Revolution and
the Empire" Captain Mahan says: ITO
maintain such a blockade effectually a
fleet needs to be fixed at the highest num-
ber the resources of the country can sup
ply, and reserve so proportioned that
by a constant coming and going no ship
in the front should ever be suffering from
exhaustion either of condition or supply.'
This is certainly true. but extremely diff
ficult under the present conditions, and
it explains Admiral Sir Geotfrey Horn
by's opinion that to-day all the iron-clads
of Great Britain would not be able to
blockade effeetually the port of Toulon.
However that may be, it is certain that.
in order to accomplish such an object, Qj
the blockading squadron must be greatly
superior in force to the blockaded; (2) its
ships must be provided with efficient de-
fensive contrivances against the attack of
torpedoes, without diminishing their mo-
bility and their offensive force; (3) it
must have at its disposal sufficient num-
Der of swift and well-armed cruisers,
which may instantly give chase to such
ships of the blockaded squadron as sue
ceeded in escaping; az some method must
be found to supply the ships with coal,
for the blockade will be inefficient unless
they are able to get up steam at any mo-
ment.-The Contemporary Review.
