Tho Committee Arranges Further De-
tails for the Celebration.
The Fourth of July Committee met
yesterday, Trustee Devine in the chair.
All the details OF the proposed celebra-
ton were again discussed. and the COM
mittee became more convinced than ever
that the plan outlined at the last meeting
will be the best, most economic, novel,
entertaining and feasible.
There will be salutes, morning, noon
and night, and ringing of bells at the
same time. In the forenoon there will be
appearance of the military on ] and x
and cross streets, which will be cleared
of vehicles for the occasion. Then. with
the infantry and the battery. an exhibit
tion of riot and street drill will be given,
10000 blank cartridges being used. Ii
will include forming hollow squares,
sweeping a street of rioters, occupying
blocks, deploying skirmishers, retreat,
repulse, house occupation, advance, and
so on. There will be an ambulance corps,
use of the signals by the signal corps,
and generally a complete and exciting
exhibition of street riot drill, to be made
as realistic as possible without involving
any danger.
If the funds are ample this will be fol-
lowed by aerial day fireworks early in
Liz SOIu0bull1S uOb 5lONu A6Ic
for many years. At noon, in the beauti-
full Wigwam in the New Pavilion, literary
exercises will take place, and these will
include music by band and a choir of
$50 or 200 voices. TO that end all singers
are to be appealed to to patriotieally vol
unteer and attend two rehearsals. This
it is believed they will do out of local
pride and patriotic spirit.
In the afternoon the Athletic Club is to
have field dav at the rlartS and in the
evening there will be an open-air concert
and aerial fire works; no set pieces, but q
display high in the air and that can be
seen from all points; probably the dis
play will be from the plaza.
Hevener IL Mier made proposition
that was accepted, for use, SO far as they
are concerned, of the Wigwam. It was
reported that the Agricultural Society had
granted use of the Pavilion.
Some of the Finance Committee re-
ported progress. and said the people want
a celebration and a good one, and will
contribute the needed funds. The Literary
Committee was authorized to go on and
arrange details for the singing, oration,
poem reading, etc., and J. p. Cosgrove, it
was stated. accepted the position of Poet
of the Day. A committee was named,
consisting of Messrs. Ficks, Leonard and
Dwyer, to ascertain all details about both
day and night aerial fire works and re-
port the cost at the next meeting.
Mr.. Hevener was added to the Execu-
tive Committee. All the Finance Com
mittee were requested to get to work at
once. and report finally at the next meet
ing. and to ask the people to maintain the
credit of the city for patriotism and pub
lie spirit by liberal contributions.
The meeting then adjourned until Sun
day next at P. NJ, to meet at Judge
Henry's otflco.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re.
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, for tbs
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 Oh
40, so, 12O, 160 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 ifi-
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 $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to corre-
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable fer general farming, and es-
peeially 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 $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.

dress VIM. II. MILLS,

INDIANAPOLIS, June IL. = Patrolman
King of the city police shot and fatally
injured Jerry O'Neil, a popular Irish
man, living in the West End, this even
ing. The officer had become engaged in
an alteration with a man and attempted
to arrest him. 1t is said there was no
occasion for the arrest, and a crowd fol-
lowed the officer and his prisoner. O'Neil
ran up and struck King in the fuce, when
the policeman drew his revolver and shot
him down. A crowd gathered around
the officer and an attempt was made to
lynch him. He made running fight for
his life, but would have been over-pow-
cred had he not been rescued by a platoon
OF police. The wounded man will die. A
policeman shot another man a few days
ago without provocation. and public
opinion has been greatly aroused in con-
sequence.
