county superintendent Nelson
has distributed copies to district
clerks OF state superintendent
kiehle's circular calling the atten-
tion OF teachers to Arbor Day, Ap-
ril %, 1893. The circular says; l
recommend that the usual school
work be suspended for that day, and
that the teachers and pupils OF every
city, village and rural school unite
to render their school grounds more
attractive by the planting OF trees,
shrubs and flowers. This opportun-
ity should be improved in every
school tliscrict to stimulate heinter-
est OF the community in it's work, by
public exercises Of an appropriate
character.
Rev. f. T. Savage, superintendent
OF the Children's Home Society of
Minneapolis, was in the city Monday
and Tuesday making arrangements
for obtaining custody OF the Thrune
Nelson children. The city coun-
Gil intended at first to have the
children sent to the school for indi-
gent children at Faribault, but
rs that institution would not
receive the two youngest child
ren, it was decided to place them all
under the care Of above named soci-
ETY.. Thefather, we learn, is adverse
to sending the children away, but
as he is wholly unfit and unable to
give them the proper care, it seems
that it would be for the best inter-
ests OF the children to have them
taken from him. There are eight OF
them, ranging from 13 years to
three months old.
