neapolis s. st. Louis. Routine business
only was transacted, although the COM
mittee was in secret session for several
hours, and when they adjourned none
of the members seemed willing to dl-
vulge the nature of their deliberations.
A number of railroad men who were
in the corridors during the meeting
stated that the committee was not one
to consider grievances of any kind, even
if such existed, and that the business
that they had been called together to
transact merely referred to revision
of the laws governing the executive
committee.

THE MIDGET is MISSING.

Mrs. Abigail Thompson's Daughter
Abducted, 1t Is Supposed, by
Servant.
Mrs. Abigail Thompson, a widow re-
siding at No. 240 East Fillmore avenue,
complained to the police at the Ducas
street station yesterday that her thir-
teen-year-old daughter, Maggie, who IS
a midget but two feet six inches IN
height, had mysteriously disappeared.
1t is believed the child was abducted by
Albert Bead!e, young man who mad
until recently been employed by MIS-.
Thompson as a driver. Mrs. Thompson
formerly operated large farm in Egan
township, OAK. and removed to st.
Paul in March last. She is well-to-do,
and desired to give her children
an education. The midget child
who has disappeared has been
attending the Lafayette school,
and was considered a bright scholar.
Beadle was employed by Mrs. Ihomp-
son in Dakota, and removed here with
the family to take care of their carriage
horses. He seemed to be an honest ana
industrious servant, and had the entlre
confidence of Mrs. Thompson until
within the last month, when he took to
drinking considerably. he had been
heard frequently to say that ii Maggie
Thompson would consent to go on eX-
hibition in museums she might earn
fame and a big salary. These stories
came to the ears of the girls mother,
and Oh Wednesday evening she dis
charged Beadle from her service. Little
Maggie cried when told Beadle was
discharged. and about 9 o'clock she
took her hat and went into the parlor
of the family residence. A short time
after her mother entered the parlor and
discovered that the child had gone. She
has not been seen since.
There is every reason for the BELIEF
that Beadle is responsible for Maggie'S
disappearance When he first entered
the service of the family he could not
read or write. and this so excited Mag
gie's sympathies that she took upon
herself the task of teaching him. They
were together great deal, and were
very much attached to each other. The
theory is that Beadle has induced the
midget to leave home with the intention
of placing her on exhibition. He is
about five feet eight inches in height,
with light complexion and mustache
and rather g0od-looking. Maggie
Thompson has face which gives her
an appearance of being at least twenty
years of age, and her manner is very
grave. When she left home she wore a
cardinal red dress, grey cloak and black
hat.

ARBOR DAY.
Young Ideas Did the Bulk of the
Tree Planting Yesterday.

Tree Planting Yesterday.
Yesterday was the date appointed by
Gov. McGill for the observance of Ar
Dor day throughout the state, custom
that has been in vogue for number of
years all over the Union. The people
understand that each one is requested
to plant tree where it will do the most
good. but it is safe to say that less than
One-third of the population Of the state
responded to the request. Saturday
was purposely selected in order that all
school children would have an Oppor-
tunity to perpetuate the custom by tree
planting. 1t would not be going too far
to say that they did the bulk of the
planting in the city. Outside, in the
rural districts, the farmer probably OBJ
served the day more strictly than his city
brethren, not so much because it was
Arbor day as from the fact that growing
needs and scarcity of timber demand
it. Timber does not grow with the same
rapidity that characterizes it's disap-
pearance, and the only way to prevent
complete barrenness is q full ObServ-
ance of Arbor day and many other days.
In many places extraordinary induce
ments are offered the people for plant
ing trees, and land where trees are
planted is freed from the burden Of tax
alton. In some states the custom comes
on a school day, and the schools do
much good. 1t is made duty, and I'M
der the guidance and direction of teach
ers scholars are each obliged to plant q
tree in some locality. Whole blocks
and lots of them have thus been beauti-
fed and shaded from the SUMS hot rays.
Minnesota laws in no way recognize Che
day. 1t is observed in this state
through proclamations by the COVER
nor, the first one being issued
by Gov. Hubbard few years
ago. Gov. McGill, recognizing the wis
dom of his predecessor, also kept up the
proclamation act, and figures in the
state records show that great good has
resulted. Every one knows that a for
est that could be leveled in a single day
can only be replaced by growth in many
years, and every sane person can GER
tainIy imagine the disastrous conse-
quenceS that would follow the depletion
of the timber resources of the continent.
Wherever one tree is cut down another
should be planted. Every one who can,
and there are few who cannot, should
plant Il tree somewhere every week of
this life. If the cutting Of timber con-
tinues at the rate it is now going on, the
future generations must either sleep in
and eat from the antique" or build
their beds and tables OF stone. Some
states offer bounty for every tree
planted, but the absence of said bounty
Should not III any way prevent the cul-
ture and planting of trees that is needed
everywhere. Thus far the results have
been good in Minnesota, and the in
structions of Supt. Kiehle to the schools
throughout the state were followed by
teachers and scholars, and cannot fail to
result in abundant good.

Girl, Dies of Smallpox.
Emma Happe, aged twelve years, died
of smallpox at the home of her mother,
No. 557 Stryker avenue, at 5 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The remains were
buried privately last night by the I'M

City Physician Ancker attended the
girl during her illness, and the house
was strictly quarantined to prevent a
possible spreading of the dread scourge.
1t is not known where the contagion
originated, but Dr.. Ancker is of the
opinion that it was brought over by a
relative of the girl who recently arrived
from Germany. The health depart
