DEATH OF 2. A. BROWN
YOUNGEST SOLDIER FROM MAINE
IN CIVIL WAR.
Had Been in Treasury Department
Third of Century and Was a
Noted IAthkte.

Mr. Charles A. Brown, who died yester-
day at his home. 25i5 University place, CO.
lumbia Heights. had been a resident of
Washington for third of century and
was well known. Death terminated a pro-
longed Illness He had been afflicted with
bronchial trouble that he contracted while
serving the United States as a soldier in
the civil war.
For nearly year he had been deprived
Of the usual activities of life to great ex-
tent, most of the time having been confined
to his bed; yet he was always of good
cheer and hopeful to the end. His mind
was full of "reminiscences especially con-
nected with the war, and these he delighted
in telling to his friends who called to see
him.
Youngest Soldier From His State.
Mr. Brown was born in Biddeford county,
Me-, fifty-three years ago, and he was only
eleven wears old when he enlisted as a
drummer in the 32d Maine Regiment of
Volunteers He was the youngest soldier
from his state in the Union army and he
served with distinction throughout the war
When he returned to civil life he came to
Washington. President Lincoln appointed
him to a position in the Treasury Depart
ment, and he was a faithful employe
throughout his long service.
In his younger days he was especially
prominent as an athlete, having been an
oarsman of great skill. He represented the
Analostan Boat Club with much success in
many national contests. He was great
favorite in musical circles, and in his later
life took an active interest in the Grand
Army of the Republic, having been a men,
ber of Burnside Post, No. s.
The many friends Of Mr.. Brown who
cheered his exclusion from the outside
world during his last Illness were inspired
by the contented and even jolly DISPOSE
ton he exhibited. To the chaplain of his
post he often expressed the desire that he
might live to see a firmer cementing of
the north and the south. He was intense
ly loyal to his country and a man of eX-
treme worth.
Leaves Widow and Son.
Mr.. Brown leaves to mourn the loss of a
kind and indulgent husband and father
widow and one son. Funeral services will
be held at the family residence Monday

THE OLD SANTA FEE TRAIL.
BY Richard Burton.

by Richard Burton.
1t wound through starnge SCARED hills,
down mons lone
Where wild things screamed, with
winds for company;
Its mile-stones were the bones of pio-
neers.
Bronzed, haggard men, often with
thirst a-moan.
Lashed on their breasts of burden to-
ward the sea;
An epic quest it was of elder years,
For tabled gardens or for good. red
gold,
The trail men strove in iron days of
old.
Today the steam-god thunders through
the vast,
While dominant Saxons from the hurt
ling trains
Smile at the aliens. Mexic, Indian.
Who offer wares, ke~en-colored, like
their past;
Dread dramas of immitigable plains
Rebuke the softness of the modern
man.,
No menace now, the deserts mood of
sand;
For, at the magic touch of water,
blooms
The wilderness, and where of yore the
yoke
Tortured the toilers into dateless
tombs,
Lo. brightsome fruits to feed a mighty
folk.
The Century for February.
