not less than $25 an acre. If you will

of dollars to those seeking to better
their condition: They tell how 800 to
$500 per acre can be made from Cali
fornia orchards and farms. The OPP
portunity is unusual and will bring in
dependence or modest fortune to those
seeking it, or those desiring to make q
home in the genial cline of Southern
California, near Los Angeles.

LANDED ON A CAR.
Man Attempts Suicide by Jumping
Down Elevator Shaft.

Chicago. March 18.-George B. Nc
CURE, who said he recently had been
manager of the Park and Duval hotels
at Jacksonville, Fla, attempted to kill
himself by jumping down an elevator
shaft from the seventh floor of the
Auditorium building. He landed on an
ascending car at the fourth floor and
was not injured seriously.
Mcclure admitted he had jumped
down the shaft with suicidal intent. He
was taken to the Harrison street police
station, where he acted SO strangely
that his hands and feet were strapped
to a chair to prevent him, from trying
again to end his life by butting his
head against the walls of his cell
In explanation of his dependency,
Mcclure said he had been drinking
heavily for a year and his bibulous
habits had caused him to lose his good
position in Florida. Soon after he ar
rived in Chicago he became intoxica-
ted. He will be examined by physi-
clans at the police station.
