erside This alleged subdivision is To-
Gated about three miles southeast OF
the center of that city and has, it is
said by the Riverside publications been
grossly misrepresented in a circular.
Schenck, it appears from his own
declaration, was induced TO buy nine
acres of this subdivision without first
seeing the land. He bought from G. NJ,
Duntley who, according to the circu-
lar. has offices at 400-401 Currier build
ing, this city.

EXCURSION TO IMPERIAL
Chamber of Commerce Considering

Everybody Delighted with
the Recent Outing

SO enthusiastic were the members of
the chamber of commerce excursion to
Imperial, who returned from there yes
terday morning, that the committee in
charge of these excursions is consider
ing having one more trip this season, a
"cantaloupe excursions" to Imperial,
some time in May.
"We may have it in May" remarked
H. B. Gurley. assistant secretary of the
chamber of commerce, who had charge
of the last trip to Imperial. Every
body was delighted with. the trip and
surprised at the fertility of the soil and
the opportunities there. Members of
the party have asked since returning
when we would have another such trip
there. We had advertised this as the
last to Imperial, but we may have to
reconsider that proposition.

can make great deal in Imperial dur

more than 81 per week. According to

pianists live in the cheapest kind OF

have a decent home. During the past
