Arbor Day.

Gov. Clough signed the Arbor Day
proclamation, setting Friday, April 26,

The proclamation is as follows:
The people of Minnesota take just
pride in the beauty of her natural seer
cry, which makes the tate attractive,
not only to our own people, but to those
seeking pleasure and recreation within
our borders.
And while nature, with a lavish hand,
has bestowed beauty and variety to our
landscape, yet it is in accord with the
sentiment of our people to devote a
special day, in the springtime, to adorn-
ing and identifying the homes, the
public and private parks, the school
grounds, and highways of the state, by
planting trees, vines, shrubs.
Now, therefore, in accordance with
an honored custom, which has prevailed
in this state for many years, do here
by appoint Friday, April 26, to be OBJ
served as Arbor Day.
May there be unity of purpose and
feeling in the proper observance of the
day, and may it be festal day in the
schools of the state, with exercises OF
such character as will impress it's bene
fcent object upon the minds of the pu-
pills.
In testimony whereof have hereunto
set my hand and caused the great seal
of the state to be hereunto affixed, this
9th day of April. A. D., 1895.

Why They Do Not Held the Nest I'M
pOrtant Positions.
New York Tribune.

WV WIN
In shops where both men and women
are employed the position of women is al
most invariably inferior and subordinate.
IL is men and not women who sell the
silks and fine dress goods that women wear.
"Why?" said a gentleman prominent in
the dry goods business in response TO the
silk or any other fine goods something more
is required than merely to tell the price
and measure OF the material. 1t takes
judgment. 1T takes skill, 1T takes knowl-
edge and information. and a certain feel
ing of color that women don't seem TO
get for color"
Jewels that women more especially prize.
1t is men and not women, in short, VINO
do the fine, the higher grade dealing in
and dressmaking. The reason for this, as
for the worse manners of saleswomen. as
a class. when compared to statesmen. as a
class, is best given in the words OF the gen.
tleman quoted above:
1.-THE trouble with women is that they
don't take enough interest in business 10
excel in it. They resent being under the
necessity Of taking IT up, even as the tenn
porary makeshift they consider IL. They
all want to marry, they all mean 10 marry;
while they are in business, and a. the first
opportunity to marry they gladly give the
business up. Naturally, they do not take
the same interest or do as well as the man
who is in 1t to stay, whether he marries
or not. A good salesman knows that his
ment for his business, the means of draw
ing custom to him. Every good salesman
builds up a clientele for himself out OF his
employer s custom. 1t stands to reason that
n a man or woman is well served and well
suited in a certain shop when they want
ANYTHING in the same line again they are
likely to go back to the same shop and the
same person. Such a clientele is the be-
ginning for an ambitious young man Of a
business of his own. Women, as a rule, lack
that sort of ambition entirely; they don't
exert themselves in a way TO succeed. OF
course, there are exceptions to this rule;
and where a woman stays in business TIL
she's too old 10 marry, or where for any
other reason she has got that idea of
marriage out OF her head. she is apt to set
tie down into a frst-rate saleswoman.
Such women are invaluable in business. and
Won will generally find them in positions or
trust and very vel, paid"
This gentleman, whose experience certain
w makes him an authority on the subject,
also maintains that the sales personnel of
an establishment, as a mass, is a reflection
of its chief. and that where the former
sis not up to the mark its because
there's a screw loose somewhere higher
up"
as manners are concerned. would seem to be
Indirect: a matter OF example. perhaps.
rather than Of precept, since there does not
appear TO be on the part OF employers any
direct and specified requirements as TO the
behavior OF their employees toward their
customers. The matter is left to the clerk S
own sense of what Is due.

MRS HAYWARD TEsTIFIEs.
She Tries Hard To Establish an Alibi for
Her son-Question of Insanity.

ner ron-Ouentlou OF insanity
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Feb. 2i.-Mrs.
l.. l.. Hayward, the mother OF the de-
PENDANT In the Hayward case, was ON
the witness stand Wednesday. The
first part OF her testimony was intend
ed TO help establish Harry's alibi. Mrs.
Hayward said that Harry came into
her room at 7:20 o'clock p. IN. and
said he was going out TO make call.
At about TAO he came in again
hurriedly, brushed his hair and
went out, saying that he was
going TO the opera The forty min
utes between these two times is the
vital period, for II was in that time,
according 10 Blixts testimony, that
Harry put him in the buggy with Miss
Cling with instructions 10 drive away
and kill her.
Mrs. Hayward swore positively that
on the night of the murder the doors
of Harry's apartment were locked and
that IL was impossible for Blixt
TO place the weapon under the
pillow as he said he did. Mrs.
Hayward had occasion 10 go to
Harry's room on the night OF the
murder but could not enter. All ques-
tions asked her relative 10 alleged in
sanity on the part OF Adry were ex-
cluded by the court. Mrs Hayward
said that on three different occasions
Adry had told her he had been prom
ised immunity from prosecution.
In the afternoon w. W. Hayward,
father of Adry and Harry, was called
10 the witness stand. The defense will
use his evidence 70 try and show that
Adry and not Harry was the arch-con-
spirator against Miss Ging's life. Mr..
Hayward was asked regarding the
famous "rn rail Blixt had sworn that
he had never seen the rail until Harry
brought il 20 him and asked him To
cut it. Mr., Hayward said that
he himself purchased the rail
at Blixt's suggestion TO replace
some broken CRATE bars under the boil
er. lie gave the name Of the dealer
and told the attorneys that his story
OF the purchase could be easily veri-
fed. Mr.. Hayward was asked about
certain family quarrels, and about the
abstraction OF a sum OF money from his
safe, the inference being that Adry had
stolen it. Then he was asked IL Adry
had said TO him: "I'm going 20 rob
street cars or hold up trains and get
money somehow I've got a scheme
and I'll fix Harry yet This the wit
ness admitted.
