REDDING, April 27.—Vincent J. Engle, a pioneer resident of French Gulch, is the latest victim of the hunter ‘*‘who thought he was a deer.” Engle was badly wounded by Emilo G. Martinez, a fellow townsman, but it is believed he will re- cove: Engle left home early this morning on a short prospecting trip. Later in the day Martinez started over the hills in search of a missing cow. When about two miles from home he saw a movement in some brush, and, believing it was caused by a wild animal of some species, he fired two shots in its direction. A human cry of pain drew him_in horror to the &pot, where he found Engle writhing on the ground. One bullet had entered Engle's groin and passed through the hip. The victim of the regrettable accident was brought to Redding this evening and is being cared for by the Odd Fellows, of which order he is a member.

Lane is to | | make a sclentific experiment in rice cul- | ture on the tract of the Old River Land | and Reclamation Company. Mr. Lane has | been interested in the project by C. Louls | Smith, who Is visiting here from Louis- jana. Mr. Smith tells of the building up of that country by the rice fields, recall- ing the rise in the price of land from 35 an acre to §130. This has been dore in many instances in the face of the fact that water rights cost $20 an acre and rent the same. Yet with all this, from $30 to $40 clear was made off each acre. Here the water would be of practically no ex- nse. There are different varleties of rice which thrive in_different soils and the roposition is now to give all a trial. Mr. ne says that he does not see wh: Chinese and Japanese, who farm mucl of the river bottoms, should not know how to cultivate rice. If it can be demonstrat- ed that rice can be grown profitably here he will get capital to put in big tracts. —_—————————— Art Needlework. Art rooms of W. H. McCuin are now open to the public.
