The first Arbor Day celebration in
wilmington, which took place on Fri
uay,, VIII long be remembered by the
teachers and scholars in the public
schools, as we'll as by thousands Of
parents and friends of the educational
institutions. The day dawned bright.
and the hearts of the children were
light. They had anticipated the occa-
sion for some time, and had made
considerable preparation for IL. AS
soon as 1t became known til at there
was to be an Arbor Day cele bration
the teachers and scholars and members
OF the Board of Education began TO
make preparations. The members of the,
School Board and the teachers knew
at once what was hest to be done, and
they set about lnstructing the chill
dren, who quickly grasped the idea
and co-operated to make the occasion
a success. 1t was decided success
and the gentlemen who conceived the
idea are extremely gratiiied. M
One of the hardest workers in making
the preparations was DIR. j. w. Crum-
baugh, on whose motion, at a meeting
OF the School Board, the day was sci
apart for the purpose. He labored
diligently and soon he had his fellow
members in the board as enthusiastic
as he.
The teachers knew the meaning OF
Arbor Day, but few knew how IL
should be properly celebrated. The
father of the project, as we'll as the
other members of the School Board,
were piled with questions, which were
readily answered, and it took but
short time to enlighten teachers and
pupils as to what course they should
pursue.
At each school there was speaking
by one or more prominent persons, who
tamiliarized themselves with the sub
lect, and who evidently found great
pleasure in eulogizing the day and adj
vlsing the boys and girls. With many
Of the speakers the occasion appeared
like holiday, and some of them, in
fact most of them, were patriotic in,
their addresses. The speeches had an
excellent effect on the pupils, and i'm.
planted in many of them patriotism
such as they had never felt before.
Old Glory was very much in evidence.
Most of the schools had musical and
literary programmes, and in some in
stances the exercises occupied the
greater part of the afternoon. Several
schools celebrated in the morning.

High School led in the celebrationsy

and discharged by Roundsman Ryan. -

the arrest to-day Of the young Duke of
Marlborough, who is to wed Miss Con-
suelo Vanderbilt. There is an ordi-
nance which forbids wheelmen from
riding faster than eight miles an hour
IN the park. or from coasting down hill.
The duke did not know this when he
swung his feet over the handle bar and
went sliding down the road to 104th
street. Officer Sweeny gave chase,
overhauled the young nobleman, i'm
forming him that he was under arrest.
Said the duke.
This is an outrage. am the Duke
OF Marlborough. How dare you insult
me in this unwarranted manner?'
Officer Sweeny thought the young
man was imposing upon him, and flip
PANTY replied:
don't give d. who you are. T"
The duke exhibited his card, but was
compelled to accompany the officer to
the station, which he did under pro-
test. He said that he was ignorant of
the law, and offered to pay any fine
that might be imposed. After hearing
both sides of the case, Roundsman
Ryan told the duke that he had been
cleary guilty of violating one OF tho
parks most stringent rules, and with a
few words of caution, released him from
custody. The duke refused to be in
terviewed tonight, but his secretary
said that he regarded the proceeding as
a gross outrage.
