Mrs. Logan's Home.

Philadelphia Times.

The embellishments of Calumet Place, the home of Mrs. Logan, are taking a somewhat elaborate form. In addition to the gallery of trophies of her husband's military career and relics of his civic services, she ordered before her departure for Europe the execution of several large pieces of mural painting representing the principal battles with which General Logan was distinctively associated. When the memorial collection and the decorations are complete Calumet Place will have a peculiar interest, not only as the home and scene of the death of the foremost volunteer officer of the army of the rebellion, but as the repository of an interesting collection representative of his life.
