TREE PLANTING m MINNESOTA

The officers Of the state Forestry
Association have issued their annual
circular to the people Of Minnesota in
which particulars are given as to the
distribution OF the - 900 offered by
the Association in premiums for the
encouragement Of tree planting III
Minnesota in 1877. The general OBJ
servance Of Arhor Day being the first
Tuesday n May is respectfully urged.
On that day last year more than 800
900 forest trees were planted III Mimi
esOta. 1t has demonstrated the fact
that men. women and children can
easily do ten times the amount Of
this kind Of work in day than had
generally been supposed possible.
While the premiums are not confined
to work done on Arbor Day-but are
extended over the entire planting sea-
son of I677-yet the Secretary will
keep record on the books Of the As
ISOLATION TO be known as the Roll Of
Honor, on which win be inscribed the
names, residence and amount Of tree
planting done on Arbor Day by all
parties who desire TO make a record
worth transmitting.
In the distribution OF premiums the
Association have divided the counties
into two classes, aiming 10 distribute
the greater portion OF the money
where most needed to encourage for

CITY AFFAIRS.
A TRAGEDY IN THE CUsT0M-H0UsE.
Another Soldier Murdered by Comrade.

On Friday, the 9th instant, while
James Fay, private in Company T., 10th
Infantry, and Michael Brennan, pri-
vate In Company D, 10th Infantry, were
confined In the guard-room, ct the
Custom House, for drunkenness, they
became involved In difficulty, which
terminated In the former being stabbed
in the right side OF the face by knife
In the hands OF the latter, from the
effects OF which he yielded up his life at
twenty five minutes to IL o'clock Thurs
day.
AS SOON Alb FAT
received the stab he called loudly for
assistance, and number of the soldiers
rushed into the guardhcuse and found
him covered with blood, and In another
portion OF the room was the accused,
Brennan, who was brandishing pock-
ct knife, the large blade OF which bore
the traces of blood.
The facts were Immediately made
known to the officers, who ordered the
wounded man to be placed In the hos
pital room and e. guard to be placed
over the accused.
The army surgeon examined Fay's
wounds, but did not think they were
dangerous, but on Wednesday lock-jaw
set in, and on
THURSDAY HE DIED.
There WIS no post norton held on
the body, but he was buried ut the sol
diers' burying grounds, below the city.
A. DEMOCRAT reporter interviewed sew
eral soldiers Of companies ID and Il, of
the Sixteenth Infantry. They stated
that both Fay and Brennan were on
good terms with each other on entering
the guardroom, and that they must
have gotten into a dispute about some
trifling thing or other, and hence the
cutting.
The accused was yesterday turned
over to the United States Marshal on q
charge Of murder, and 1t Is alleged that
why Brennan was turned over to the
United States Marshal instead Of Chief
Of Police Boylan was that the murder
had been perpetrated In United States
prODerty
