The Real Demon of the Marsh

Is not spook. but a reality. 1t is neither
a ''bogie' nor .'kelpie,n nor any other OF
those spirits which the credulous have
supposed TO haunt the banks of rivers
and streams after dusk. Its name is
malaria. and though invisible, it is very
terrible and tenacious when it seiZes you.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters drives it
away, nor will it attack those whose sys-
TENS are fortified with the great medi-
cinal defensive agent. The miasmatic
mists of early morning, the vapors ex-
hailed at eventide may be safely breathed
by those protected by the bitters. In the
tropics where every form of malarial dis
ease threatens the sojourner. and is par
ticuIarly virulent when developed, the
bitters is the best reliance of the inhab-
itant. For dyspepsis, liver complaint,
lack of vigor, appetite and sleep; for
rheumatism and nervousness The bitters
are sure and safe remedy.

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 az
from $40 to $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 120, 100 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 prin.
cip2l'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 i'll
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
fands, 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 $50
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
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

4 SECOND EXAMINATION ARHdNGED.

THE ACCUSED STEAMBOAT INSPECTORS. HOW
EVER REFUSED TO TAKE IT.
There are some queer features about the effort 10
get rid OF the three steamboat inspectors whose
resgna lions were asked ten days ago by Secretary
Carlisle The incident partakes OF the bundcrins
which so frequently marks what is undertaken by
the present Treasury Department. The men are
Peter J. Donohue George II. Gardiner and David
s Dey on December 10 they received letters from
Secretary Carlisle demanding their rcsiSna lions
They refused to leave the service. Instead OF dis
missing them. their superiors gave them an eX-
animation. Yesterday second examination was
arranged but the three declared that they would
rot underso another test unless allowed 10 take
with them from the examina tionroom copies OF
their answers TO the questions. Presumably. they
wanted TO be able to show how nearly correct their
answers were. The examiners would not consent to
this so the three men did not present themselves
for examination. More radical measures may now
be adopted.
Two Of the inspectors. Dey and Donohue were
in the service six or eight years before 1850. and
were re-appontcd last year. Gardiner has had
an experience Of two years. All are Democrats
The charg, on which their designations were
asked was incompetency. They declare 1t Is absurd
