      The mark says Qianlong Nian Zhi = Qianlong Period Make.

      Go here http://www.gotheborg.com/marks/20thcenturychina.shtml
      and scroll halfway down to the section Qianlong Nian Zhi, and to the subsection which says "Following marks are in Kaishu (normal script) style..." I think the characters for no. 260 are a close match to your far right photo.
