roots their countless Pickering candle
flames. ever two and two together, as they
blossom out needless of season and of
weather, for their mellowy flames light
the whole year round. Here are repre-
sented some which beautitied the roadside
that winds up the south shoulder of Mount
Tamalpais from Mill Valley. They seemed
to be smiling down at us from their sunny
bank, and lent a charm of their own to the
landscape.
High up the mountainside the chap
arral berries are ripened blackish purple
in the hot sunshine. Here may be found
lingering golden flower cup of the Den
dronecon rigidum, crowning a single leafy
stem that grows to the height of about two
feet. The flower of four round petals is a
clear, brilliant chrome, and the stem it
rests upon rich garnet, encircled with
sunny green leaves. Ever looking straight
up to heaven, it seems to have caught some
bright reflection of the celestial gold that
is beyond the blue.
Plunging downward far below these chill
dren of the light, perhaps some shrub
hourishing in thick winter mantle of
green leaves will hold out one branch all

out these odd scarlet leaves just as they
put out few odd flowers in February.
Wild blackberries and the poison oaks deck
their thick green sprays with leaves of
orange and cherry, just one here and
there, and even some somber redwood tree
may be all alight with rusty carmine on
one of its lower branches as eccentric as
the rest.
AS for brilliant, frost-painted autumn
leaves, there are but few in all the woods
of California, unless at an altitude on the
mountains above the winter frost line.
And all this semi-tropic beauty of flower
ing and mingling of summer foliage with
autumn hectic, is but glance at the Cali
fornia wilds at this season, since here no
month in the twelve finds less than hun
dreds of wild flowers in bloom.

paths that seem to have been made by
chance. Wild poppies and azure lupins
Iinger here. The Epilobrium Franciscum
stands shoulder high tipped with crimson
flowers. And here on the cliffs also grows
the yarrow, that dear, old gypsy, that
wanders half way round the world and is
always familiar and beloved despite its
nomely hardihood. You have all seen
its long leaves, like tufts of ostrich down
dipped in green. Its crisp stems rise up
some two or even three feet from the
ground, holding the heavy clusters of tiny
flowers that are neither cream color nor
yet gray, but mixture of both. They
have complex beauty of form that needs
magnifying glass to be appreciated, and
an odor agreeable with that wholesome
pungency that clings about a chrysan-
themum.
There is silvery- budded immortelle
that holds up its clusters of flowers upon
the dry windswept slopes. Perhaps the
casual observer will not perceive its beauty,
its color is SO much in harmony with that

seemed quite dusty and dry, where the
hazelnuts were hollow shells and the elder
berries had long ago fed the wild birds,
came suddenly upon bare place caused
by a landslide. 1t was OF recent date.
Perhaps last winter, during some rain
storm, say some fifty tons of rock and
shrubbery had given way and settled down
lower along the hill. No grass had sprung
up. The place was bare, save for a wonder
OF wild poppies in full bloom. They grew
In thick clumps tender and crisp, and the
rich golden flowers, orange hearted, were
large and thickly set.
Unlike these the later peoples usually
are small relatively and the flowers are
mingled with long spotted pods bent like
scimeters and streaked with red, as those
cruel weapons are apt to be. These are
determined to gather their need of moist
ure and sunshine. They spangle some
moist southwark bank or cling to the shell
ter OF some windbreak of lupins.
One took root at the foot of shrub
which seemed to hold the moisture by its
thick leaves. The poppy shared this ad-
vantage and then climbed up like vine
clear to the very top of the shrub so that
its crown of blossoms reached the light.
They also creep along the ground in tnis
vlnellke manner where the conditions fos-
ter them and yet are too meager to allow
of their assuming their beautiful conelike
arrangement of leaf and flower.
Deep in the canyons and far away in
wooded places where lingering streams
murmur through the hills wild roses are
still in bloom. Some are rich in tint
almost crimson. These are small and
thorny and set thick in clusters of bloom
that fill the air with that Turkish odor of
rose that is so delicious. Where the trees
are tall and the underground much in
shadow these sweet daughters of Flora are
large and fair, blushing family with pink
and delicately perfumed. Their ripening
seed buds are large and set in sprays rather
than in clusters. Nevertheless they have
little crowns and are dipped in
glossy vermilion like those OF their
sunny tempered sisters. Here, too, the
wild colum bine loves to Chamber. Now
its fragrant flowers are turned to little
berries of orange and purple. Brilliant
sprays tumble in every breath of air in
contrast with the stiff twigs of oak to
which they cling. The oaks are bristling
with acorns, which are now green and
swelling November will ripen them, and
the south winds that bring the rain will
scatter them broadcast through the woods
and plant them in the soft rich loan deep
under the leaves that will turn brown and
fall with them.

Thanksgiving day has passed, yet Cali
fornia's wild flowers still bloom and
flourish. In this semi-tropic section of
our country, the seasons melt and blend
into each other so gradually that people
from colder quarters scarcely perceive that
we have the four distinct seasons. Because
the rose, that sweet daughter OF June,
blooms ir December, she seems to have
banished winter as by enchantment and
made the whole year one long blossomlng
summer. However, our rains are crowded
into one-half of the year, during which
the green of tender verdure colors the
landscape and freshness and delicacy Of
flora is produced that outrivals the New
England springtime.
All this increases in richness and pro-
fusion until the dry weather appears.
This is our own distinctive California sea-
son. Then the grasses that Clothe the
hills take on the soft silvery yellow of
pure ocher and the red-brown earth
powders with fine dust the living mantle
of every tree and shrub from the Sierra
SUBMITS to the ocean. Although palms
rise in sunny green and prune orchards
are purple with fruit, the uncultivated
hills are yellow. They stretch away in
the sunshine, mile on mile of dry sun
gilt verdure, in places bronzed as the
Slopes of wild shrubbery and the green
bronze OF the oak and pine, and so the
scale ascends until capped by the orange
fame of sunfowers. These stream down
the dry water-channels of the San Joaquin
and other valleys, blazing like the sweep
ing lines of prairie fire. On closer view
they are beautiful with boldness of color
and outline that has charmed the artist
from time immemorial. With their
-queenly height and grace-for they often
hold their dazzling clusters ten feet above
the rich loam-they haunt abroad their
indisputable beauty and win a place that
might be envied even by the fairest daugh-
ter of the wilderness.
The wild poppy herself, our chosen dar-
ling, can boast no brighter shades of or
ange and gold, nor has she that plushy
heart of smoked topaz and star-shaped
outline. But the poppy has silken petal
and fern-like leaf, almost as fine as
maidenhair. Has nature anything else
like these buds, saucily pushing off their
dainty Ounce caps? And they bloom the
whole year round. Not with the same
glory Of gold that is lavished broadcast in
April, but here and there may be found
towering clusters even until December
rains renew them again. However, these
choose sheltered spots in which the moist
ure gathers.

Deer Hunting by Locomotive.

Once in a while the engineer of train
on DIR. Seward Webb's Adirondack rail-
road has race with deer. Sometimes il
happens that the frightened deer won't
leave the track and is killed. One night
i'll September when Pat Cummings was
pulling the through train down to Utica
he walked back to Conductor Clarke, while
his fireman was taking water at Nehosene,
and said:
"Bill, l killed a deer back there by the
river. 1t was a fine big buck. He run
ahead of me for long piece. and / could
see him plain. When I hit him he went
up over the pilot highern he ever jumped
before in his life, bet. He landed Just

The lovely violet stars of the Astor cham

Slender airy stems reach up in thick Gus

for bowl of cut crystal. The hearts OF
the flowers are of green gold, like that
from the Australian mines, and these are
fringed around with a halo of delicate vlo-
let silk, varying in shade from the deeper
tones to almost milky white. The hollow
in some hills slope grown over with these
seems, at first glance, to be covered with
veil of purple mist floating above the lace
work of stems beneath. A sheaf can be
gathered in few minutes, each stalk is SO
many branched and much bestarred with
flowers. A bouquet is well worth gather

seems to be so partial in this vicinity.
Yet various spaces flame out with the
scarlet torches of the castilea and uncounted
rosy blossoms of the Sidelcea malvehora
or the white enamel of wild strawberries
in flower. A sketch made from a single
bunch of flowers gathered there last May
represents no less than ten different varie-
ties varying in shade from palest violet TO
deep purple. 1t is simply wonderful to
realize that all of these so different in
species and form should have been planted
by nature in such close proximity to each
other and painted with the same royal dye.

send the section-men down to the river
with their hanocar to get the deer. 1t was
after IL o'clock, but the section-men
started out, and after smart pull got
down to the river. They looked long
time, but could find no deer. Up and
down the track they went, and at last
were just about to give up IN disgust when
one of the men found it. 1t lay out on
the bank of the ditch beside the track.
1t was fine large yellow dog.
