GRAND ARNY DEPARTMENT A Visit to the 0ld Oalifornia Hems of | Fighting Jos Hcoken THE FANCUS RELICS OF GENERAL of Grant's Prep- ot ke Interesting Reminiscenc Capt Quee Roll. arations for the burg—A 1 opheey the Ponsion A corrospondent who recently visited the old California of “Fighting Joe” Hooker unearthed many interest- ing relics of the famous general. After Califor: wrested from Mexico, Lieutenant Hooker resigned his com mission in the army and settlad in Cali fornia in 1850, In the full of that year he purchased a farm of 640 acres in Sonoma valley at the foot of Napa moun- tain, and upon a high knoll, sheltered by ancient live-onks, e built a modest dwelling which for several yoars was his home. Up and down the valley and to the west the fieids ace broad and level, and when, in 1858, ool disposod of the property it bore ac hundred acres of splondid vineyar his own planti A portion” of this vineyard is in existenco tod In 1858 Hooker sold the ranch to Me, George ( Watriss, and the house that was once the residence of the hero of Lookout Mountain is now used for the accommo- dation of farm hands. It is a small building, containing four small vooms. I was allowed ono day to climb up to the loft in the old Hooker house,” says tho correspondent, “where I was told” [ would find a lot of ‘rubbish’ that was at one time the property of the general. In overnauling the piles of broken furniture and wornout farming imple- ments that | found stowed away under the e 1 came across u leather trunk battered and gnawed by mice. On the front of the trunk wus Tastened a bruss plate bearing, 1 fine script, the name ‘Josenh Hooker.” The trunk was haif full of musty documents, and some of them have the sipnatu of Alexander Forbes, under date of 1845 There wero also several letters of a privato charac- to Licuterant Joseph ter addre 1 was also a pamphlet home was Hooke There containing a list of graduates from the United States Mili academy at West Point from 1801 to 1841 inclusive. This pamphlet, published 1n 1841, hore the signature of Joseph Hooker and Irvin McDowell, first licutenant, First artil- lery, adjutant Military neadem, “In one corner of tha loft I found v old army saddle with Iooker’'s name traced in the brass trimmings of the pommel. Rats had gnawe the surcingle and stivrup straps. Near the saddle was a broken camp chair and a lantern of primitive pattern. The chair had been fastened together with wire, and the itials *J. .’ were cut into the back. The lantern wus n cumbersome atfair, with a mica chimney, loside was the remnunt of a candle, A musket anda horsepistol that were once the property of Hooker had been more carcfutly laid away. I'hey were hanging on a'rack suspended from the rafters. They weve rusteaten and fos- tooned with spiders’ web. A scrap of dinry found among Hooker’s private papers in the leather trunk tells the Lisuny of the musket, which is not un interesting. It was presented to Lieutenant Hooker by Colonel J. W. McKenzie, who got possession of it in the following manner: Atthe storming of the gates of San Cosme, Mexico, Sep- tembe 1847, McKenzie's only piece of artillery, a twelve-pound howitzer, was moved forward to a small carth- worl within £00 rds of the fortifica- tions. “Nea ly all of McKenzie’ been killed or were disabled ing but five rounds of grapeshot left he sent two men—ail that weie able to walk—to the rear for ammunition. He had fired his last round of powder when an infantry soldier came from his pluce of shelter under the arches of the grand aqueduct 1o assist him, and while cross ing the voad to where MceKenzie lay he was killed. McKenzie ran to the fallen man, secured his musket and ammuni tion belt and returned to shelter, rec ing but a slight wound in bis left ‘With the ammunition that he securea McKenzie kept up the fight until heip came to him from the re **Dust-covered and broken I found an ©1d style maliogany dressing case and o ard tuble that had belonged to Hooker. The cnrd table was an elaborate piece of furniture. It was inlaid with pearl, and was evidently imported, for the designs and cleverness of the workmanship evidenced tho doft fingers of Jupinese artisans, “In early days Licutenant Hooker was a prominent figure in the politics of So- noma county. — In 1853 the democrats headed their ticket with his name as a nominee for the assembly, The Scttlers’ convention (there was no republican party in Sonoma county in those days) nominai in opposition to Hooker a pioneer named James Bennett, The contest between Hooker and Bennott hinged divectly on the question of re- moving the county seat from the town of Sonoma to Santa Rosi. The fight was hard one and resulted in a tie vot second election was held, and Hooker was defeated by cight votes, The records of Sonoma county show that the sime year Joseph Hooker was appointed road overseer in Sonoma township, “*Hooker's allsare lucated atthe head of a deop canyon in the Napa mountains A strenm of water tumbles down the rugged side of o ravine into a broad, deep pool, surrounded by tall redwood trees, ‘Lhe trail thav leads from the valley to Hooker’s Fulls is u very danger- ous one to follow. It winds wlong the side of the canyon, and in muny piaces it s s0 narrow that two persons cannot pass on it, *“The guide tells a rather exciting story of how oneday Hooker, who was hunt. ing in the canyon, met ut one of theso points in the tenil'n bear, and after vain attempts 1o kill the brute with a ball from his rifle he closed with it and fought the animal desperately with a hunting knifo. During th ght man and bear rolled down the side of the canyon, Hooker, wounded and bleed- ing, lodged in the limbsof a redwood treo, and was taken down a fow hours later by a searching party that had come out for him, The bear was found at the bottom of the ravine dead, “Lieutenant Hooker wus but one of a coterio of young army officers who were quartered in Sovoma valley in 1850, and Aaoeross Sonomu creek from the Hooker ranch stands ‘The Rendezvous,’ where the young urmy officers were in the habit of meeting weekly to pass an evening at cards, chess and other social pastimes, which were sweetened by 1he arquet of the native nes that had been cagked for years in the musty cel- lays of Pedro Curillo, a wrinkled Span- iah miser, who threw the doors of his ranch house open to visitors ouly when they were willing to pay huandsomely for their entertainment, “About the building, which is still habitable, broad-limbed oak trees cast their shadows,and a tall flagstaff,erected Yedro Curillo at the request of his wilitary patrons, stands in the yard. men had and hav- I'E 2 { From this staff, when there wers impor- tant questions to be discussed or an en- tertainmont to e given, the American flag was euspended, and those of the sciect coterie of habitues of “The Ren- dezvous' who saw it floating in the breeze made hasto to obey its call, “I'rom the county road that now runs through the back yard of *The Rendez- vous,” winaing trail nscends tho sido of Sonoma mountain, and crossing its summit drops into a deep, shadowy can- yon, that is filled with the magnified roar of Sonomn Falls, a ribbon ot foam. ing water that leaps down a rocky steep from a height of more than feet to the bettom of the guleh.” Story of an lowa Veteran, Very fow of the hundreds of who know Jith Coe of Ottumwa, la., for one of the best fellows who ever walked on shoe leather suspect that this is his second time on earth.

This batt was charged by the New Yorkers. Not far from Douglasville, Ga., on a fine plantation, lives John D, Pope, o scarred - confederate veteran. On that fateful September day in '64 Pope was aprivate in Company G, Forty-fourth Georgin volunteers, Confederate States of America, which regiment wns sup- porting the battery that was causin the Now Yorkers so muech uneasiness.

Along came the Georgians in hot pursuit. John D.
