SIERRA VALLEY.A Charmlne (Summer Retreat in the

miles north of TTuckee, is one of themost picturesque valleys in the SierraNevada. It is some thirty miles long,two miles wide, and as h pel as a floor.

This valley is at an elevation of 5,000feet above the sea, and the climate in thesummer months is delightful. It i - nowtoo far from market for its land to com-mand a high value, but it is a grandstock and dairy section.

The pine timber comes down to the1 •!.'.- of the valley, all around, and someday there will be a great trarlie in the

FOUR BIG BROTHERS.They Belong: to tho Famous Field

Family of New England.Probably no four brothers have

achieved tho distinction gained by the"boys" in the famous Field family ofNew Kngland. David Dudley Field, thelawyer; Stephen Johnson Field, the jurist;Cyrus XV. Field, tho merchant, andHenry Martyn Field, the clergyman, areall sous of David Dudley field, a clergy-man of Madison, Conn., who was bornthere in 1781, and died April 15, 1867, atStockbridge, Mass. All four are nowliving, the youngest being nearly FOyearsofage. and each is bale and hearty.

David Dudley Fiold, tho eldest of thisquartet, was born in lladdam. Conn.,February 18, 1805, and is now over 86years old. Ho was graduated at WilliamsCollege in 1825 and studied law in Albanyaud New York City. In 1828 he was ad-mitted to the bar, and soon afterward hebecame a junior partner in tho law firmof Henry tte D. Sedgwick, with whomhe studied. From then until 1885he was continuously engaged in thopractice of his profession. His labors inthe cause of law reform during that time ]gave him special prominence. An emi-nent Chancellor of Kngland has said that i"Mr.Field of New York has done morefor reform of laws than any other man 'living." Mr. Field has taken much in-Iterest in polities. Originally as a Demo-Icrat, he voted with that party, althoughhe persist* nily opposed its pro-slaverypolicy until the nomination of John CFremont in 1850,whom he supported in thePresidential canvass ofthat year. Duringthe Civil War he was a stanch adherentof the Administration, and was activewith voice, pen, and purse in aid of hisparty. For eight weeks in 1876 he filledthe unexpired term in Congress ofSmithKly, who bad been made Mayor of NewYork (Sty, He now acted with the Dem-ocratic party, and was one of the advo-cates on that side in the dispute over thePresidential election. He has deliverednumerous addresses, and has contributedlargely to current literature on politicaltopics.

•Judge Stephen Johnson Field, tho sec-ond brother, was born at Haddam, Conn.,November 4, 1816. He was about 3 yearsold when his father removed to Stock-bridge and ton years later he accompaniednis sister Emilie, who had married amissionary, to Smyrna, in order to ac-quire a knowledge ofOriental languages.Returning home he entered WilliamsCollege, and was graduated in 1537 withhigh honors. lie then came to NewYork, where he began the study ofthelaw with his brother, David Dudley, In1857 he was elected Judge ofthe SupremeCourt of California. On the resignationoi Chief Justice David S. Terry in 1859 hebecame Chief Justice, and continued inotnee tillhis appointment lo the Supremebench of the united states by PresidentLincoln In 18<tf, an oflice which, he nowholds. Among tho prominent decisionsin which he has been concerned was thefamous test oath case, in which he gavethe casting vote, and wrote the opinionoi the court annulling the validity ofthe"ironclad" oath. His dissenting opinionin the legal tender cases, in the con-fiscation cases, in the New Orleansslaughter-house case, have also attractedattention. In 1877 he was a member ofthe Presidential Electoral Commission,and was one of the seven who voted infavor of Mr. Tilden against the eight infavor of Mr. Hayes. Iv 1880 his namewas placed in nomination for the Presi-dency at the Cincinnati Convention, andhe received sixty-five votes on the firstballot. In 1873 ne was appointed by theGovernor of < California one of a commis-sion to examine the code of laws of that

md prepare amendments to thesame for the consideration ofthe Legis-lature. He received the degree of LI,. D.fr a v. Ulixms College in 1864, and in1869 was appointed Professor of Law inthe ! nivereitv of California.

Cyrus W. Field, the third brother, washorn at Stockbridge, Mass., N ivember30,1819. He was educated in his nativetown, after which he commenced hisbusiness life in a counting house in NewYork,and became so eminently suful that he engineered his way in a fewyears to the chiefproprietorship ofa largeand prosperous mercantile establishment.IDs native energy and executive talentsoon put him in possession of an amplefortune, so that in 1853 he partially re-tired from business and made an ex-tended tour over and among the Andes:in South America. On his return to theI nited States in the following year hewas solicited to engage in the establish-ment of a lino oftelegraph in Newfound-land. After mature deliberation he en-tered upon the work. He was chiefly in- jBtrumental in procuring a charter iron: ithe Legislature of Newfoundland grant-!ing to him and his friends an exclusive 'right for lifty years to establish a tele-graph from the Continent of America to :that colony, and thence to Furope. Hisdauntless efforts, which resulted in the <laying ofthe transatlantic cable, are well Iknown. Congress voted unanimously topresent Mr. Field with a gold medal andthe thanks of the Nation, while thePrime Minister of England declared thatonly the fact that he was a citizen of an-other country prevented his receivinghigh Honors from the British Govern- jment. John Bright, pronounced Mr. Ifield the "Columbus of modern times, !who. by bis cable, had moved the new!world alongside ofthe old." The ParisExhibition of 1867 gave him the grandmedal, the highest prize it had to bestow.In 1879 he attended the opening of theSuez Canal as the representative of theNew YorkChamber of Commerce. Hebecame interested in 1876 in large enter-prises, among which was the construc-tion of elevated railroads in the streets ofNew York. En 1881 Mr. Field and hiswife traveled around the world. In 1881, jsoon after the shooting of President Gar- !field, he originated a subscription for thefamily, which after the death" of tiie Pres- 'ident amounted to $350,000. In later l

yean Mr. Field has been enjoying hishonors and his wealth in the bosom ofliis family.

Henry Martyn Field, the fourthbrother, was born at Stockbridge, Mass.,April :*, 18-J;.. At the age of 1J he enteredWilliams College and was graduated in1838, and after four years' study of theol-ogy at East Windsor, Conn.* and oneyear at New Haven, he became pastor ofa Presbyterian Church at St Louis, Mo.,where he resided from 1852 to 1b47. Atthe end of ISI7 he resigned his chargeand traveled the following year in Eu-rope, and was in Paris during the revolu-tion in 1848, of which he wrote a full and

ting account, and also of the Ital-ian revolution, which he witnessed a fewweeks later. He has traveled all over the 'world, and has written "The Good andBad in the Roman Catholic Church," I"The Irish Confederates," "The Re- jhellion of 1.798," "Summer Pictures from !Copenhagen to Venice," "From the 'Lakes ot kdiarney to the Golden Horn," j"From Egypt to Japan," "On the Desertand Among the lioly Hills" and otherworks. In 1854 he removed to New York

ime one of the editors of the ISvan-\u25a0i, list, a religious journal, with which behas been connected for thirty-five years,and of which ho became the sole proprie-tor.—Chicago Herald.

A Queer Business.A croat English editor, ilenrv La-bouehere, tells of an advertisement thatappeared n ccntly In one of the London

papers which r.;ut as follows:

BIRCH BODS—Small and handy, is bypost, well packed. Ida Weston, can of

mi-. Tayler, 8 Hawthorn Terrace, Canter-bury.

This wm snch a strange advertisementthat Mr. Labouchore thought he wouldinquire Into it,and so he sen! to MissWeston :i note reqaesting her to Bendhim a birch rod as advertised, and inclos-ing the necessary shilling. Shortly therod arrived, and with it a note from ".Missv. ston te this effect:

'•Miss Weston incloses one rod here-with. It must be steeped in water to re-stop us suppleness, and the handle maybo wrapped iv ribbon. Miss Weston ad-vertises at a loss, but with a view to re-store the rod aud reform the present 'nn-tauie r race of English boys and girls."

Just think of it! Making a regularbusiness of sclliuer birch rods to make

oetter. How would the boys ofthis country like that, and would theyagree with my informant that this ladyia engaged in s great and glorious work?I am afraid not, and I am further notafraid to say that the modern boys whostand in need of the rod are like angels'visits, few and far between.—Harper'sYoung People.

THE BIRTH OF THE BELone or nature s Mysteries tne scien-

tists Have Not Solved.Itmay be fairly said that tho eel, as to

its breeding, is the most mysterious ani-mal in existence. Some authorities havocontended that eels grow up from horse-hairs, which in some strange manner be-came vitalized. Others have held thatthoy were generated spontaneously fromslime, while others still have gravely ad-vanced the belief that they came from theskins of old eels, or even from similarexuviae or water-snakes. That eels matewith water-snakes is generally acceptedas truth. Jlo?t popular among peoplewho get their living from the water, how-ever, is the theory that eels arc tho prog-eny of various, iishes. The Sardinianfishermen assert that they are producedby a certain kind of wftter beetle, whichfor this reason is called "mother ofeels."The Greek poets, who fathered all chil-dren otherwise unaccounted for upon Ju-piter, declared that this god was the pro-genitor of the eel.

All the mystery about tho eel, as sci-ence has learned within the last fewyears, is due to tho fact that it lays itseggs, or brings forth its young alive, inthe sea, where no one has a chance to ob-serve the process. Other fishes, like theShad, leave the ocean to spawn in fresh-water streams, but this curious and slip-pery customer does precisely the reverse.The young eels, newly born or hatched,leave the salt water and make their wayin armies up the rivers inland, explainsthe New York Sun. Of course it is Im-possible for them to get over the falls,and thus it happens that although eelshave always been plentiful in Lako On-tario, there Were none in Lake Erie untilthey were planted in the latti r body ofwater artificially. In all probability eelslay eggs just as do nearly all other iishes.The only difference is that they depositthem in the sea instead of in fresh wator.It is believed that the mother eel diessoon after she has spawned.

«oCOULDN'T SEE THE JOKE.

A Story Which Illustrates Lntrlish Ig-norance of American Affairs.

According to a gentleman who has justreturned from England some of the well-known men there arc not well informedas to the details of American history.He told a New York Times reporter thisstory:

During the stay of Mrs. McKeo andMrs. Russell Harrison in London theLondon Times gave considerable space todetails ofthe receptions given them, andon one occasion spoke of Mrs. McKee as"the daughter of Mr. Charles Harrison,President of the United States."

This caused a good deal ofcomment onthe part of Americans in London. A;-v. days after the publication occurredone ofthe dinner's given in honor ofdis-tinguished America!.s in London, andGeneral James C. < 'larksonwas one oftheafter-dinner talkers. He professed hisignorance of the details of English poli-tics, and expressed regret at the fact, butsaid he thought there were some recipro-cal conditions among Englishmen, ashe had seen tho name of Mrs. McEee'sfather printed as "Charles Harrison,President ofthe United States." This hethought should be an offset for any er-rors he might make in speaking of Eng-lishmen and alfairs.

A hurst of applause and laughter fromthe Americans present followed, andwhen it had died down a titled English-man, who had not joined in tho ap-plause, spoke up: "And where is thejoke?"

Then the Americans again applauded.—i .*.

Swedish Farms.Small farmer- are the rule in Sewden,

and the Swedish peasants usually ownthe soil they till. Over two-thirds "of thefarms are between live and fifty acres inextent, and more than twenty-three percent, are little homesteads of less thanfive acres. Oats is the great staole cropand is largely exported, rye and barleybeing chiefly used for home consump-tion, especially rye. Young pigs are soldfor high prices in England, and sides ofAmerican pork bought at cheap rates.Rye ripens up to sixty-nine degreesnorth latitude, and barley and oa_ts up toseventy degrees, or on a parallel abovethe mouth of Hudson Lay.—The Vine-yardist.

*Fractured His Ribs.Hon. Edward A. Darragh writes:

"StatbofNewYobk, AssekbltChah-r.EK. Ai.raxy, AprilK5, 1881

"Some years ago I was thrown from awagon and fractured two of my ribs. Iwas go badly hurt that I had to sit up in achair for four days and nights. Thofourth day my mother placed two Ar.i.-cook's Porous Plasters overmybrokenribs. The next day my sufferings di-minished and I was able to lie down, icontinued to improve every day. Twoweeks after the accident Igot up and at-tended to business. 1 renewed theplasters twice, and found myself almostentirely well in a month, when I sailedfor England.

"My wife is subject toperiodic pains inthe back that give her rest neither daynor night, but in two hours after apply-ing two AIXCOCK's P_LASTERSBhe experi-ences relief, and in two or three days sheis well. She also finds them effective inneuralgia and rheumatism."

The old idea of 40 years ago was that facial!ruptior>s wore due to a "blood humor," forvhich they gore potash. Thus all the old Sarsa-mrillas contain potash, a most objectionable audIrastic mineral, that instead of decreasing.etuaily creates more eruptions. You havo no-iced this when taking other Sarsaparillas thanoy's. It is however nor,- known that tho stom-ch, the blood creating power, is the scat of nilItiating or cleansing operations. A stomachlogged by indigestion or constipation, vitiates

the blood, result pimples. A clean stomach andhealthful digestion purifies it and they disappear.Thus Joy's Vcgetablo Sarsaparilla is compoundedalter the modern iflea to regulate the bowels andstimulate, the digestion. The effect is immediatemd most satisfactory. A short testimonial tfcontrast tho action of the jKrtaah Sarsaparilla?and Joy's modern vegetable preparation. Mrs.C. T>. Stuart, of 400 Ilayes St., S. F., writes: " ]

Uavo for years had indigestion, I tried a populaiSarsaparilla but it actually caused more pimple?to break out on my face. Hearing that Joy's waia later preparation and acted differently, I triceit aud the pimples immediately disappeared."

A CAPAY COLONY.

Bosy Fruit-Growers ia a Pretty

Yolo Valley—Tancred and Its

TN THE RHUNG OF LAST YEARRob°rt A. and Neal D. Barker \u25a0MOCllltlofl

themselves with William McKay, all of Oak-land, with a view of searching out a suitable Ilocation inwhich to engage in tho profitableoccupation of iruit-growin-. After visitingmany localities, they decided on the CapayValley, Yolo County, and the Rhodes tract at |Tancred.

Negotiations were opened with tho CapayUnd Company,owning tno tract in |

quostion. \Vlth XV. IT. Mills, the GeneralAgent of that company, they arranged for thapurchase of about 220 acres of foothill landThis being more than they had thought oftaking for their own use, they spoko to anumber of friends about it. with the resultthat the tract was divided anion- the follow-ing people: B. L. Hickok,-10 acres; W.T.Barnctt, acres; N. T. Greathead, 20 acres;Mrs. L. Greathead, 20 acres; w. McKay, 20acres; N. D. Barker, 20 acres; R. a. Barker,20 acres; j.p. Brownies, 20 acres R n. Ha*lett, 10 acres; Joseph Barker, lo acres; A. XV.Kellylo seres,and Frederick Kelly, 10 acres.

So far this had been merely a private ven-ture of the gentlemen above named, but Intalking up the question of dividing the l.mdalready purchased, it was found that so manymore would like to join it than the area of thopurchase would admit of, that it was sug-gested on all hands, "Why not get some moraland and divide It up in the same way*"Then followed the Idea of a stock company totake hold of a larger tract and arrange for thocultivation ofthe whole of it. iu ttr subdi vidin-itaccording to the requirement* of the sub" jscribers. A provisional board was formed, a jprospectus issued, and finally, on the sth ofJune, 1890, the Western Co-operative Col-onization and Improvement Company waiduly registered and proceeded to business,with the following officers: President, Win'iam McKay; Vice-President, M. P. Brown;Direx-tors-H. c. Ellis. Charles Brooke andK. A. Barker; Secretary and General Man;;Neal D. Barker; Solicitor, C. E. Snook; Treas- \u25a0

urer. First National Bank of Oakland.The balance of the tract. ;,»?:: acres, was pur-

chased. A contract was entered into for tho ipurchase ot a large number of fruit treesvines, etc. This early purchase of trees wasthe means of saving between :?:;,000 and$4,000 to the company, the prices in someeases having more than doubled since then

The ideas which the prospectus set forthhave been but slightly modilled and thoprogress of the company has been uninter-rupted. Those who went Into it doubtlnglyhave become enthusiastic, and almost all thomembers arranged to set out all their lands infruit trees, etc., the first year. ConsequentlyIn this, the firstseason, some 40,000 trees andbetween 20.000 aud 30,000 vines will bepxuutea.

The satisfactory working of this scheme hashad the effect of attracting considerable at-tention to the work of the Colony Company,and a number ofpeople are now desirous ofJoining in with them. An additional 200acres have been added to the sixty acresoriginally purchased.

For the company is predicted a very brightfuture, as well as for the beautiful valley inwhich their operations aro conducted. Howthis marvelous little garden has come to bo solong neglected is a puzzle to e\cry ono whohas visited it, but one thing is very sure, andthat is that this neglect will never again bofelt in the valley.

The fruits eet out are mostly ofthe standardvarieties:—peaches, apricots," Bartlett pears,prunes, Gg3, raisin grapes, etc., while alongboth sides of the avenues, throughout thetract, walnuts will throw their graceful shade.A considerablelnumber oi citrus trees are alsobeing set out; quite a sufficient number todemonstrate that these fruits can be success-fully grown in the valley, about which thocolonists appear to have no doubt, providedproper caro Is given to the young trees. NealD. Barker, General Manager of the company,resides on the tract, and to his care is to be as-cribed much of the success of the venture.

Mention should be made of the town-site,about which there Is a pleasant innovationwhich mightwith profit he followed by moroambitious plaeee. A small park ofsome threeacres has been laid out right in the center ofthe town. This park it is proposed to beautifyby planting in It from time to time us manyof the beauties and curiosities of tree andshrub life as may be obtained by diligentsearch and a wise expenditure of money? Itis not expected that Tancred will ever be alarge and busy city, but it is thought that itcan be made a very pleasant little placo todwell in.

A petition has been circulated recently andvery largely signed, asking the county to ac-cept Island avenue, on the colony tract, as acounty road, and to build a bridge acrossCache Creek at this point, in order to givo thesettlers on the east side of the creek access toTancred Station. The Tancred colonists aroquite willingto give the necessary right ofway, and are very desirous of having a bridgethere, as the colony lauds extend along both |sides of the stream. It is thought that itwould be a very wise expenditure ot publicmoney to grant them this very necessary im-provement, as the operations of such com-panies are of widespread benefit to the wholocounty and State. The attractions and com-forts of the cities are well known, but to thosewho are willingto settle on the land and showthat the country also affords attractions andcomforts and ways of making money pleas-antly, every inducement should be held forth.

The following Is a list of the principal mem-bers of the Tancred Colons', with the numberof acres owned by each, and a fact worthy olmention is that in each contract or deed is-sued by the Colony Company there Is a pro-vision that no intoxicating liquor shall everbe manufactured or sold on the land. Tho ap-parent success o*the enterprise shows thatthe ideas and plans of the coloii3r, as set forthin the prospectus somo time ago, are not im-practicable: C. T. Hull. Berkeley, 5 acres; W.P. Hammon, Oakland, 14 acres; C.s. Kasson,San Francisco, 11 acres; Jos. Barker, 10 acres;A. W. Kelly. Kincardine, OnL, S acres; N. T.(ireathead, 5 acres; R. G. Greathead. Oakland10 acres; H. A.
