PURCHASE BIG TRACT
TO PLANT FRUIT TREES

GRAND FORKS, B. c., June g.
One of the largest real estate deals
ever recorded in the Boundary dis
strict has just been completed here,
whereby a syndicate of Winnipeg
and Chicago capitalists have acquir-
ed 10000 acres of wild farm land
on the north fork of Kettle river.
The amount paid for these holdings
aggregate $4,000, and is being dis
tributed among twenty-five individu-
al owners.
This newly acquired land is chiefly
covered with timber which can be
marketed and will in several cases
bring the owners much more than
they paid for the land. 1t is the in
tention of the company to set to
work at once to clear this land. AS
soon as the land is cleared it will be
planted with choice fruit trees and
sub-divided into ten-acre tracts and
placed on the market.

George Peabody. the philanthroplsr,

together to fish. One day they went a
couple of miles up the Shannon be-
tween Castleconnell and KillalOe.
They bad engaged the services Of two
boatmen, and as Bright and Peabody
were keen anglers they made a long
day Of 1t. On returning in the evening
Bright, noticing policeman ON the
river bank, asked what sum the boat
men were entitled to for their time
The constable said anything from
seven and sixpence to 10 shillings.
Bright turned to his companion, say
ing: 4 have no change. Peabody
Have you three half crowns?" The
millionaire produced the coins and
gave them to one of the boatmen, who
said. "And Is that all ye're givin' me?"
THAT is ALL" replied Peabody. "Well.

the boatman, adding. as he scratched
his head: An they call We Paybody.
