down Swanmp creek, 14 miles from
Enterprise. - He pays f2400 for the
160 acres. The .ranch has a fine,
never failing spring and as Mr. Litch
already owned 1G0 adjoining it gives
him a fine 320 acre stock ranch,
v The Turlock Tribune tells of the
sale of the Moline ranch of 77
acres, 3& miles southwest of Turlock
by W. J. Funk to D. M. Johnson of
Oakland for $20,100. Mr. Funk bought
the place a little over a year ago for
$11,500, according to the. Journal, but
his relatives in Enterprise understand
it coat him but $10,00, Including con
siderable personal property. He
made quite a lot of improvements on
it, but on the other hand he cleared
a'god sum off It the past season.
The Journal says Mr. Funk is soon
to move his family to Oakland where
his son expects to engage in the
study of dentistry. ; .:'
This doubling his money in one
year proves what this paper r said
when Mr. Funk fent to Turlock, that
he would "teach the natives how to
farm." ' :."'''
C. H. Zurcher brings the word from
Hood River that Wm. .and Albert
Reavis have recently made gooa
sales of part of their property. Will
iam sold 10 acres for $15,00 and Al
bert sold 10 acres for $10,000 and Al
bert got the same sum for 7V6 acres.
He paid $4500 for the place. a year
ago. " : '', : .. .';.-;-''
BELL BOY POPULAR.
Many a one was disagreeably sur
prised at the dash and go and oftimes
the brillant and spectacular effects In
"A Bell Boy" as presented at the
Steward last night- The first act was
mediocre, but with uplifting of the
- econd act things picked up with a
vim and from then on to the last
curtain it was a continuous round
of laughter. Interspersed with excla
mations or awe and surprise at the
pWtrioal effects. There has only
been one commedian in town this win
ter who even commenced to equal the
hard work of the Bell Boy and that
was Johnnie Jones. To say that there
is some "git" to the play presented
last night, is hardly appropriate de
scription. It was more than that at
times.
Jokes are .not staled and rusted
with age,. neither are the stunts out
or date. The chorus is small, but
elegantly costumed.
