MOORE UNAUTHORIZED.
What is Said mt the Chinese Legation.

+.
officers of the Chinese legation say that
Mr.. Moore, who was formerly an interpre-
ter of the legation and was recently arrest
ed, with others. in japan on the charge of
ccDspiring to blow up the Japanese navy
by torpedoes, has not been acting under
authority of the Chinese government or
of the Chinese minister here. The legation
is alive to the serious position Moore is
in, as he is a prisoner of war, subject to
the treatment accorded military suspects.
1t is expected that the United States con-
sui at Yokohama will report to the State
Department on the arrests, after which the
Chinese minister may take some action in
behalf of hN >ormer attache.
At the japanese legation it is said that
Moore is in no danger of being shot or be-
headed or receiving other summary punish
ment. They are not accused of being spies
and are therefore not subject to sentence Of
death. 1t is believed at the legation that
the prisoners will be released after their
purpose of destroying the japanese navy"
has been effectually disposed of.

the regular Government cruisers were
engaged. But this does not include the
number lost by shipwreck. the sloop-of-

include the loss in American privateers,
which was nearly equal to that sustained
by the navy. The number of killed in
land battles was about $50, SO that the to-
tai loss of the War of 1872 is about 1000
men. In the war with Algiers. 1915,
Mexico. 1916 to 1913. and in the minor
conflicts between 1916 and 1860 about 900
men were killed in battle.
but the greatest losses, of course, were
IN the civil war, where brother was ar
rayed against brother. Probably not
more than l,500,000 men of the North ef-
lectlVely participated in suppressing the
reDeiilon. OF these, sc, 600 were killed in
battle and $4,000 died Of wounds in hos
pitals, while 900 died from disease
contracted in the army. OF the 1900
colored men enlisted, 1928 died from
disease. No accurate estimate of the
losses sustained by the Southerners has
been made, but it is probable that they
were fully equal to those sustained by
the Northerners, bringing the total of
about 100000. Adding to this number
the 400, 00O who were permanently dis
abled by disease or crippled by wounds
we have the appalling aggregate of ,000,-
UVO men lost IN that strife. OF the 100000
Confederates who were made prisoners

disease during their captivity of the

WHY THEY LEFT.
SauerkFaut Drives Family Away
From Home.
A Sudden Fluctuation Of the Market
Responsible for a Deserted Farm
$50 Barreis of Picked Cabbage.

They were talking about the desertion
OF farms by the younger generations for
the alluring charms of the cities; how
young men and women left the home nest
in the country as soon as they felt any
confidence in themselves, and flock ed to
the paved streets and brick walls of urban
life, IN the hope that work would not be
so hard ana money would come easier.
Our family furnishes case in point,u
said young German, who has recently
appeared in minor roles in Twenty
fourth Ward Democratic politics. to a
Chicago Tribune reporter. Were all in
the city now except the old folks, who
stick to the farm, and are doing pretty
we'll. Our reasons for abandoning the
farm, however, were not those usually
given, and doubt if a parallel case can
be found" Then he told his story:
With two brothers and three sisters he
lived on farm one hundred miles from
Chicago and they all aided a phlegmatic
old father in operating the place. 1t was
fine piece of land and the family was
happy and prosperous. But dark disaster
came one day in the shape of cabbage
crop. The Chicago market showed
strong demand for sauerkraut and the
farmer decided to go IN for profitable
crop. With the three boys he planted
several acres in cabbage, with excellent
results. This crop was cut up and
packed and when all was done there were
$50 barrels of the finest sauerkraut made.
Communicating with a friend in the
grocery business on the North Side the
farmer received an order for ten barrels.
A few days later the grocer announced
that the best he could offer was 50 cents
barrel, the top market price. The old
man couldn't stand such drop as that, so
he had the shipment returned, paying
freight charges both ways. Purchasing
forty fine young pigs he began fattening
them on his high grade sauerkraut. All
went well for few days, but the porkers
soon tired OF the diet and began to run
from it. The pile grew high and few of
the stronger pigs jumped the fence and
ran away, while others sickened and grew
weak from starvation.
1t was puzzler for the old man, but he
was determined to derive some benefit,
and the boys Iugged the stuff up to the
orchard near the house, where it was
spread about as a fertilizer. By this time
the entire family grew turbulent at the
mere mention of sauerkraut, and when
the sun poured its hot rays on the picked
cabbage the girls rebelled. The farmer
was obdurate and the three girls packed
their effects and came TO the city. The
kraut became so powerful that even the
old man could not stand it, and the boys
were instructed to cart it down to q dis
tant field and spread it. The boys had
been on the verge of mutiny several
times and this settled it. They all "lit
oup' for Chicago and have been here ever
since. The girls are in service, and once
in a great while they all meet with the

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $1O
to $40 per Acre.

Tho Pacific Improves Company has re.
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres og
land in the heart of Tehanla County, Tor 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 as
from SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions os
40, so, 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 o.
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part OF the priE.
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 il-
terest at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period OF
eight years. Intending purchasers are
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 CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
peoialy adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 an acre. Aa examination Of the lend
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 a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.
