AN IMPRESSION.
A cypress dark against the blue,
That deepens up to such a hue
As never painter dared and drew;
A marble shaft that stands alone
Above a wreck of sculptured stone
With gray green aloes overgrown;
A hillside scored with hollow veins
Through age long wash of summer rains
As purple as with vintage stains;
And rocks that while the hours run
Show all the jewels, one by one,
For pastime of the summer sun;
A creswnt sail upon the see
So calm and fair and ripple free
You wonder storms can ever be;
A shore with deep indented bays,
And o‘er the gleaming waterways
A glimpse of islands in the haze;
A face bronzed dark to “7'1 and gold
With mountain eyes that seem to hold
The freshness of the world of old;
A shepherd‘s crook, a coat of fleece,
A grazing: {lock—the sense of peace,
The long, su'cet silence—th is is Greece!

winter «luring; the Empire he was com-
pelled to abide in London. The day was
rather col-ti, and he had secured a very com-
i‘ortnblc Sciiil near the red hot stovc in a
well known restaurant. Opposite to him
sat a phlcgmatic Englishman sipping his
glass of grog.
“Waiter,” cried out the Briton, “do you
know the name of that foreign looking
gentleman sitting near the fire reading the
paper and smoking a cigar?” ‘
“No, sir' I do not,” answered the waiter,
after looking Janin carefully over, “but I
will call the proprietor.”
The proprietor comes.
“Do you‘ know that gentleman reading
the paper and, smoking his cigar near the
stove?” _' ‘
“I regret to say,
is the first time,I think, he has
our establishment”? _ , ' ._
“Very well. That will do,” said the,
Englishman, in his coolest manner. He
then rose and directed himself toward the
unknown.
“My dear sir,” said he, addressing Ja-
nin, “but might I know your name?”
“Certainly; my name is Janin, Jules Ja
nin. from Paris.”
“\Vell, Mr. J anin, Jules J anin, from
Paris, I have the honor to inform you
that the tails of your coat are almost en-
tirely burnt off by the fire in that, ,stove at

unnecessary to‘ name: the ' parties, but the
story as vouched for by several citizens of
this place is as follows;
A farmer residing near here, worth from
$5,000 to $10,000, not long since had a broth- _
er in the neighborhood who was very sick.
The attending physician requested that the
sick man be given small quantities of lem-
onade. The wealthy brother " was ‘ dis-
patched to town to get some lemons. He
went to a leading grocery store and pur-
chased three for ten cents, " Thatnight the
sick brother died, and "oiily orient the. le’mfi
ons had been used.
The day after the funeral the wealthy
brother took the two remaining lemons
back to the merchant and said as his
brother had died before using all of them
he had no further use for them and he de-
manded six cents for the two returned.
The merchant refused to take the lemons
back and thfl miserly old fellow went away
mad—St. Louis Republic. ' '
Calino’s Trick.
M. Calino, the ’French wiseacre, has at
last said an eminently wise and witty
~thing.
One night at the Tomnoddy club, of
which M. Calino is an honored member, a.
group of men were discussing the question,
“What is the best trick a man can play on
his m‘other-in—law?” j
The matter came to M. Calino for his de-
cision. . He thought it over gravely for a
minute or two and then responded:
“Gentlemen, the best trick that I can
think of for aman to “play on his mother—
in-law is not to marry her daughter!”—

GALLANT MARCH, OF A CALIFORNIA
ARMY IN 1862.
Bruving Torrid Heat and Burning Sands
' to \Vave the Stars and Stripes in Ari-
zona, ew Mexico and Western Texas.
A Thrilling Adventure.
[Copyright by American Press Association]
MONG the un-
written deeds of
the civil war the
march of the Cali-
fornia column of
Union, volunteers
' from southern
California nearly
a. thousand miles
across the deserts
of Arizona to
Santa Fe, N. M.,
in the summer of
1862, is one of the
most remarkable
c f» t h e le as I:
known. The ‘ ob-
ject of the expedi—
tion, which was undertaken in a desperate
emergency and pushed with undauntcd
energy and daring, was to forestall the
Confederates in the occupation of the
southern route to the gold coast, and pre-
vent the founding of a southwestern terri-
tory under Confederate rule. The summer
of 1861 had been an eventful one in the
states, and the Union authorities had paid
scant attention to affairs beyond the Mis—
sissippi. As open rebellion never sleeps,
and every malcoutent is a soldier and an
organizer to a certain degree, the Confed-
erate cause grew day by day in the far
away empire along the Rio Grandc and the
Gila. By the first of August all the forts of
southern "New Mexico: were in the hands
of the Confederates, and the commander,
Col. J ohn R; Baylor, by proclamation con—
stituted theConfederate territory of Ari-
zona. soon afterward Gen, H; H. Sibley
arrived and assumed command of the Con-
federate “Army of New Mexico” and set out
to capture Fort Craig, the extreme south—
erly post of Union forces in the territory.
About this time Gen. E. R. S. Canby was
sent from “'ashington to organize the
Union militia and make what defense he
could of eastern New Mexico.
The Union commander on the Pacific
coast was Gen. H. G. Wright, and to him
occurred the bold idea of striking the Ari-
zona Confederates in the rear, by aforce
organized in California; to march across
the desert, recapturethe government forts
’ along the southern border, reclaim all the
region to the Union and open the old
‘southern mail route between Santa Fe,
New Mexico and Fort Yuma, Cal. The
plan was immediately approved in Wash-
ington and troops were designated to form ‘
the expedition. Col. James H. Carleton,
of the First California volunteers, was
chosen leader. The intention was to move
during the winter, and thus spare the men
and animals the exposure to the burning
Colorado and Gila deserts, which in sum-
mer are considered impassable. The dis-
tance to be marched from the rendezvous
on the coast to the Rio Grande was upward
of 1,000 miles, and that nearly all through
aregion of complete desolation. But an
insurmountable obstacle to the winter
march presented itself at once in the shape
' of unprecedented, rains. The Country itvas
flooded, open plains became quagmires,
and cattle and horses were swallowed up
without a chance of rescue. Vehicles of
transportation could not move, and after
: long delay supplies were sent around by
" water through the gulf of California to
-‘ Fort Yuma, and
a depotwas established
there. ' . ‘ " ‘ ‘ ‘
The volunteers for the" enterprise were. , I;
California miners and pioneers, and they
came to the camps from all parts of the
mining country on foot. " \Vhen the rains
ceased they began to move from the western
"Icoast'toward Fort_.Ynma. “Hem a desert
of 180 miles intervened, and so rapidly did
the wateridisappcan 5'that wells had ‘frto be
dug along the mute to supply men and
hoi'Ses... ,Whenitheiiirearwof the column
came 'along there was So little water in the
freshly made wells that it had to be dipped
in pint cups. By the middle of April the
column was ready, to move eastward from
Fort Yuma. The number, including em-
ployes, was about 1,500, and was organized
as follows: First California infantry; Fifth
California infantry, three companies; First
CalifOrnia. cavalry, five companies; Second
California cavalry, one company; Battery
A, Third United States artillery.

The Confederates ‘ occupied Tucson and
were pushing: westward, and Carleton’s , ,,

miles “of" Fort ‘Yu‘mal Geni'NS'ibley’s in-
structions on taking command of the Ari-
zona Confederates had been to enlist volun-
teers promptly in all: that mgion, to open
negotiations with the governors .of Mexi-'
can territory for supplies. and as soon as
the Union forces could be‘ driven from
New Mexico on the east the Confederates
would move toward the coast with the cry
“On to San Francisco!" ' ‘
This point gained, the Mexican states ad-
joining: would? enter-{the alliance,” and an
outlet for" African slavery and a supply of
treasure would lie-ensuredto the south at
one grand stroke. To prevent the consum-
mation of this there were" but two forces at

! IN THE DESERT. .
,tcntion turned chiefly to the destruction of
the Union force on'the Rio Grande, in his
rear, Sibley held out his hand to California
by extending his outposts toward the Col-
, orado. -
Col. Carleton’s California column was
preceded by two companies of infantry
scouts and one of'cavalry; and as they ad-
vanced the Confederate outposts retired,
destroying all forage on the route. Between
' Fort Yuma and Pima Villages the way led
,across an alkali desert, 'n n which the
scorching sun’s rays beat ntenaely, caus-
I
and probably one -
ing great suffering to men and animals.
At .Pima Villages the command halted to
gather somevgr‘owin g crops for the animals.
and, on May 14 set out'for Tucson. It is a
pathetic story that is 'told in the records of
this expedition—how, day after day, day
after day, in addition to the fatiguing
march, a long and often fruitless search
was made for grass and'water.
The advance reached Fort Breckenridge,
on the Gila, May 18 and hoisted the Stars
and Stripes, then pressed on to Tucson.
The Texan Confederates abandoned the
place without a ~struggle and Carleton
waited for his straggling column to’close
up. The battery of artillery was moved
with difficulty. \Vater for the horses had
to be borne in a tank, one holding Gil”) gal.
Ions having been placed on a truck. The
rear of the column reached Tut-sen June 5,
and Carleton proclaimed martial law in
the territory. Supplies were bought across
the Mexican lines and the command was
refitted for the march to the Rio .Grand‘c,
and Carleton sent forward an express to
notify Gen. Canby, on the cast, of his ap-
proach. His messengers were Expressman
John Jones, Sci-gt. Wheeling, of the First
volunteers, and a Mexican guide. But the
haunts of the murderous Apache Indians
had been reachct and the couriers were
promptly set upon. Sergt. Viticoling and
the guide were killed, but J one." escaped
the savages only to fall into if 3 hands of
the Confederates, who read his dispatches,
learning of Carleton’s expedition and his
purposes. Upon this the Confederates dc-
termincd to abandon the region, and Jones,
by some means, got word to Cnnby, who
sent out aforcc to Meshlzi, the Confederate
headquarters.
On the '2lst of J unc Col. E. E. Eyre, First
cavalry, with 140 men of his regiment, was
sent b Carleton on a forced reconnaissance
towari the Rio Grande. He reached Apache
Pass on the 25th, and halted at the fine
spring of water to refresh and graze the
animals. The Indians would lie in wait at
this pass and attack travelers, and Col.
Eyre kept his party alert. Suddenly. while
busy drawing water, shots were heard at
some distance. and the camp was soon sur-
rounded by Indians well armcd. After a
parley the chief consented to let the sol-
diers go unmolested. It was found later
that three of the men in the grazing fields
had been killed and mutilated with lance
and scalping knife, and after dark a volley
was fired into the camp, killing a guard
and wounding the surgeon. Eyre pressed
on without further adventure, and on July
4 reached Fort Thorn (old Fort Floyd),
above Mesilla, and across the river from
Forts Fillmore and Bliss. This was the
first time the Union flag had floated on the
Rio Grande below Fort Craig, where Can-
by was, since the Confederate occupancy.
On the 23d of July Col. Carleton left
Tucson with the remainder of the column.
At Apache Pass the Indians attempted to
keep the troops from the spring, and a
fight ensued in which two volunteers
were killed and two wounded. Several
Indians were killed and the rest retreated.
Carleton left a garrison of 100 men to hold
the pass. On Aug. 10 the command
reached Las Cruces, in Texas, opposite
Mcsilla, where Col. Eyre was, having been
halted by orders from the eastern depart-
ment. The active colonel had, however,

occupied Mesilla, A. T., and Fort Bliss
and Fort Fillmorerin Texas. On the 22d
the Union flag was raised over Fort Quit-
.man, on the Rio Grande, and also over
, Fort Davis, 140 miles in the interior. The
last was performed by Capt. Shirland’s
company, First cavalry. ' Communication
was now had with Gen. Canby, and the
California column was included in his de-
partment and supplied with funds. The
long and anxious march was over and the
purposes of the expedition had been car-
ried out. _ ' f
In his report of the expedition-Col. Carle-
ton stated with soldierly modesty: “The
southern overland mail route has been
opened, and the military posts in Arizona,
southern New Mexico and northwestern
Texas have been occupied by troops -' com-
posing t'hc column. from California. {Thus
far the instructions of the general com-
manding the department of the Pacific
have been carried out. , - " . '
“It was no fault of the troops from Cali-
fore them. It is but just to say that their
having thus fled is mainly to be attributed
to the gallantry of 'the'" troops under Gen.
(lanby’s command. That they were hur¥
"ried in their flight by the timely arrival of
the advance guard of the California column
there can be no doubt.”
_ ~ After commending the officers of the
battery of artillery “for their incessant
toil by day and night,” the colonel added:
crossed the desert. I am sure that’he who
' crosses the next one will be considered; an
accomplished soldier.”
Of the achievement of his men he wrote: -
“The march of the column from California
in the summer months across the great
desert in the driest season that has ever-
been known for thirty years is a military '
achievement creditable to the soldiers of
the American army; but it would'not be
just to attribute the success of this march
to any ability on my part. The success was
gained, Only by the high physical and moral.
"energies of the peculiar class of officers and
men who composed the column from Cali-
fornia. With any other troops I should
have fail .” ' ' ' '
war ended Col. Carleton’s claims are found
tainly intended to raise an army of south:
ern sympathizers in New Mexico, .0010-
rado and California and supply it from
Mexico. “The objective aim of the cam;
paign,” to use his own words, “was the
con-quest of California.” -
The successful march of a formidable
body of men throughthe heat of this ter-
ritory under the difiiculties encountered
was a menace strong enough to paralyze
Confederate‘recru ting and drive away all
support from the native populace and the
foreign allies. All in all the march wasan
unique and efiective stroke, creditable to
I the mind that conceived it and to the de-
voted men who carried it forward.

This building was designed to meet the
requirements of a well to do farmer, and.
as will be seen,- the plan is in general out-
lines almost that of a rectangle, which in
itself involves a difficult problem to secure
a picturesque effect. The first story con-
tains a spacious reception hall, a feature
quite essential in a. modern design. At the
left of the receptidn hall is the parlor,‘ scp-
arated by sliding doors both from the hall
and dining room at the back, so that the
three rooms may all be thrown in one at
pleasure. A large bay window. projects
from the side of the dining room with'four
windows, giving abundant light to the
room, as well as adding an attractive feat-
ure to the exterior of the building.
Separated from the dining room by a
