But He Did Not Enjoy the Muzzle of a Gun So Close By. "One night," said Ben, "I was bounc ing over the plains in one of my over land coaches. Mrs. Holladay and my self were the only passengers. Several stages had been robbed within two months, and the driver was ripping along as though a gang of prairie wolves were after him. Suddenly the horses were thrown on their haunches and the stage stopped. "I was heaved forward, but quickly recovered, and found myself gazing at the muzzle of a double-barreled shot gun. ' "Throw up your hands and don't stir!' shouted the owner in a gruff voice. "Up went my hands, and I began to commune with myself. The fellow then coolly asked for my money. I saw that he did not know who I was, and I was afraid that my sick wife might awake and call my name. "My coat was buttoned over my bosom, but scarcely high enough to hide a magnificent emerald that cost me over $SOOO a few weeks before in San Fran cisco. "'I scarcely breathed through fear that light might strike the stone, and its sparkling brilliancy attract the attention oi the robber. I had about $40,000 in a money belt, and several hundred dol lars in my pocket. "Suddenly my friend shouted : 'Come, shell out—quick, or I'll send the old 'un a free lunch.' "I passed out a few hundreds loose in my pockets, and handed him my gold watch and chain. They were heavy. I think the chain alone would weigh five pounds at least. "There,' said I, 'there's every cent I've got ! Take it and let me go on. My wife is very ill, and I don't know what would happen to her if she knew what was going on.' "'Keep your hands up !' was the re ply, while a second robber received my watch and money. "Then a search was made for the ex press company's box, but the double barreled shotgun did not move. Its muzzles were within a foot of my nose. For my life I did not dare to stir. "My nose began to itch. The stiff hairs of my mustache got up one after another and tickled it until the sensa tion was intolerable; I could stand it no longer. '"Stranger,T said, 'I must scratch my nose! It itches so that lam almost crazy!' '"Move your hands,' he shouted, 'and I'll blow a hole through your head big enough for a jack rabbit to jump through!' "I appealed once more. "'Well,' he answered, 'keep your hands still and I'll scratch it for you.' "Did he scratch it?" asked one of Ben's interested listeners. "Sure," said Mr. Holladay. "How?" asked the breathless listener. "With the muzzle of the cocked gun," said the great overlander. "He rubbed the muzzle around my mustache and raked it over my nose until I thanked him and said that it itched no longer." The robbers soon afterward took their leave, with many apologies, and Ben continued his journey to the Missouri, with the big emerald and $40,000. —[N. Y. World. A SEVERE ATTACK OF CROUP. The Child's Life Saved by Chambei- lain's Cough Remedy. I wish to say to the public that Cham berlain's Cough Remedy is the best I have ever used or sold for croup. I am never without it at my home for my children.. Last winter a child of Mr. E. J. Wetzel, one of my customers, was choking with a sudden and severe at tack of crourj. I gave him a bottle of this Cough Remedy, and he started for home, gave the child two doses of it, which stopped the coughing and smoth ering instantly, and in a few minutes the little one was out of all danger. Mr. Wetzel came back to the store as happy as he could be, and said: "That bottle of Cough Remedy saved the life of my child." Furthermore, I feel friendly toward you as the manufactur ers of such a valuable remedy, and am proud of its being manufactured in our own state. I can cheerfully and will ingly give many instances of its good works to any one that may want a reli able cough remedy. Wm. C. Vogkl, Quarry, lowa. For sale by C. F.

Location of Lands, With Description of Soil and Climate, and Comparison of Prices With Other Lands of Similar Values. The original purchase of these lands comprised 20,000 acres, situate immedi ately west of tyie cities of San Bernardino and Colton. Two transcontinental lines of railroad, the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific, trav erse east and west these lands, exactly two miles apart, giving us two townsites and stations upon each road, the stations being four miles from each other, thereby giving us unexcelled shipping facilities. Our land extends to within three miles of San Bernardino, one and one-half of Colton on the east and five miles of Riverside on the south, Our average altitude is about 1200 feet above sea level, with a gradual and regular slope from the mountains on the north, with just fall enough to irrigate conveniently. We are 400 feet higher than Riverside and 200 higher than San Bernardino, which exempts us almost entirely from frost. Our lands are peculiarly adapted to citrus fruits, being right in the heart of the best orange producing country in the state of California. Our subsoil is the same that has made Riverside famous the world over, with this advantage—we are fortunate in having a top dressing of decomposed granite ranging to a depth of from six to eighteen inches, which holds the moisture, always being in good condition for cultivation and readily furnishing the proper nourishment for starting the growth of freshly planted trees and vines. Irrigation may be indulged in to any degiee without fear of injury to the trees, vines or vegetables, or the risk of getting the ground in bad condition, as frequent ly occurs on land less favored. Ourwater rights are unsurpassed. We own and control almost, all the water in Lytle creek, the fourth largest stream in Southern California, besides which we have a large scope of artesian water bearing land where we have thirty fine flowing wells emptying their sparkling waters into pipes which conduct it to the rich lauds below for irrigation, and to our streets for protection against fire, and to our dwellings for domestic uses. We are boring more artesian wells con stantly, never failing to secure a line flow of water, so that we have no hesitancy in saying that we have a great abundance of water for all of our rich lands. Of the 29,000 acres originally pur chased we have sold about 9000 acres at $200 per acre, which leaves us about 20,000 acres yet to be disposed of. For the past two years but little land, comparatively speaking, has been sold in Southern California, on account of the depression in the money market, and the collapse of our boom, but now we think we see the dawn of an era of prosperity, such as has never been known in this country, and in order to attract the at tention of the world to our superior loca tion and lands, we have reduced the price to a figure below the price of the cheapest agricultural lands in this country, and propose to sell about 2000 acres to actual settlers and people who will improve the land, at $75 to $100 per acre, with 20 and 25 per cent off for im provements made within one year from purchase, making the land but $00 to $75 per acre to the man who in good faith improves the land, and on terms within the reach of all, to-wit: $10 per acre cash on delivery of contract, balance in three equal payments, due in two, three and four years, at 8 per cent, interest. Think of it! The best orange lands at $00 and $75 an acre. Go all around us and ask the price of land not so good as ours. At Riverside on the south, at Redlands and Highlands on the east and northeast of us, all famous orange pro ducing districts, the price of unimproved lands ranges from $250 to $500 per acre, and foi orchards five years old from $1000 to $2600 per acre are being paid, and they are well worth the money invested. The water for irrigating these lands is furnished under the "Wright Irrigation Law" of this state, and costs the land owner only $2 to $4 per acre per annum. Rialto, where is located the home office of the company, is a smart little town of, perhaps, 200 people, situated on the main line of the great Santa Fe railroad, four miles west of San Ber nardino, and we have a fine depot with telegraph and telephone communica tions with the world. A fine large hotel, the "Semi-Tropic," elegantly furnished and well kept, occupies a square in the center of Rialto, and one of the fine school buildings for which Southern California is famous, stands upon another square of the town. Two church organ izations are in a flourishing condition— the Methodist and Congregational. A pleasant ride of an houi and a half through the beautiful orange groves of Los Angeles and San Bernardino coun ties takes you from the city of Los An geles, the metropolis of Southern Cali fornia, to Rialto. An excursion is conducted from Los Angeles to Rialto every Friday morning, leaving Los Angeles at 8:30, and return ing arrives here at 6:30 p. m.; tickets good for ten days. Fare for round trip $2.55, which is returned to every pur chaser of land by L. M. Brown, agent for these lands for the coast counties. Office, 132 North Spring street. For further information, address the Semi-Tropic Land and Water Co., Rialto, San Bernardino County, Cali fornia. Or L. M. BROWN, Agent at No. 132 North Spring street, Los Angeles, California.
