As write, we are having dust storm.
There has been no rain for over three
weeks and the wind is having jollifica-
ton and sends the dust through the
streets in such a manner as to remind lis
of the snow blows at home, only the wind
is not as cold, and the bright sunshine on
the green grass has no resemblance to
the white snow covered ground.
When the first rains fell, one of the To-
cal papers said that "San Jose had had
its face washed, and would soon be put
ting on its best bib and tucker, prepare
tory to welcoming eastern tourists" We
have seen the clean face of the country,
and the donning of green, but not the in
coming of the tourists as in past seasons.
A late JOURNAL, referring to your lovely
winter, says "who would leave such a
climate?" so there may have been some
mistake made and they are visiting Wis
consin instead of California. Our young
people can't skate or 60 tobogganing for
amusement, but ball playing, cloquet and
lawn tennis are III favor all the year.
There is a club of young croquet players
in the southern part of the city ranging
in age from 80 to 20, who take solid COM
fort at their games, and it is a pleasure
to on-lookers too, for they are all scien-
tifc men ON this ground. Among them
can be seen the genial face of our good
friend and neighbor, J. III. Lord. Mrs.
L. and I called one day and were intro
duced to the boys" who were busy in
the game, making the usual school boy
remarks in regard to 'fair play" etc.
We enjoyed our call hugely, and came
away thinking-long may they live to
swing the mallet.
Our city is being raided by burglars at
present and some of the most daring at
tempts eve. heard Of have been made.
Houses are entered nearly every night,
and men are stopped on the street and
made to hold up their hands, while a
pistol is held very close to their heads,
while their pockets are emptied of their
contents. / am not laughed at quite as
much now for my extra precautions in
fastening up at night, and each door is
graced by chair tipped in a reclining
position, in addition to usual fastenings.
/ must not forget to tell you that San
Jose is to have new Post Office. The
site has been decided on, the bargain
made, and money paid.
Very many beautiful houses are being
erected and the city improved in all
ways Another time will tell you some
thing regarding the style of buildings,
houses, mean.
With kind regards to all, I'll "bide a
Vice." Yours sincerely,
Mrs j. f. RHODEs
