Tree ArbOr Day. u
Gov. Lind designated May 1 as Arbor
day and issued proclamation to that
effect Mayor Kiefer hastens to likewise
proclaim to the people of which he is the
chief executive something on the same

In his official declaration your mayor"
displays much sentiment and calls upon
the young men to each plant tree on
May l In honor of his lady love after
the tradition or custom in certain foreign
lands. The proclamation, duly signed
by Mayor Kiefer. reads as follows:
'"To the Citizens of ST Paul: The first
day of May has been designated as Arbor
Day. Every patriotic citizen of this COM
muntty Is earnestly requested by the
least one shade tree near or in front Of
his home Nothing contributes more to
the beauty of a city than graceful and
stately shade trees along the residence

Tradition has it that at one time there
existed in foreign land a custom pur-
suant to which every young man planted
in early spring a shade tree in honor Of
his lady love, and the tree which best
er's early marriage. Trees thus planted
were guarded, watched and nursed with
more than paternal care.
Let every young man plant such a
tree on Arbor day, and thereafter watch

CHANGE IN HIS STAFF.
Harvey Hall Decides to Leave the
Corporation Attorneys Office.

Harvey Hall Decides to Leave the
Corporation Attorneys Office.
Third Assistant Corporation Attorney
Harvey Hall intends to resign his official
position and devote himself to the de-
fense instead of the prosecution of pris
oners. There was some talk about the
first of the year that Mr. Hall would
sever his connections with the legal de-
partment of the city, but his friends per-
suaded him after consultation with Cor
poration Attorney Markham, to reconsid7
er such intentions.
The particular duties to which Mr. Hall
has devoted his time and abilities has
been the prosecution of offenders in the
police court. There is some contention
as to whether he convicted too many or
too few during the two years that he has
held down the position. In any event, he
has decided to quit the job. His sue
cessor has not been definitely decided
upon. 1t will either be J. Frank Arnold,
al present q clerk in the Office or Capt.
Finehout, of the Fifteenth Minnesota vol
unteerS, who before he went to the war
occupied the position now held by Ar
mold.
Corporation Attorney Markham stated
last evening that Capt. Finehout would
either be clerk and Arnold third assistant,
or vice versa.
Mr.. Arnold, who was formerly book
keeper for Aid. Shepard recently grad
uated from the university law school and
will, in all probab bility be the new third
assistant corporation attorney. He was
backed by his old employer and Assemb-
blyman Thompson for his present posi-
ton, and it is understood these gentle
men and other members of the council
will make a determined effort to secure
his promotion.

State Treasurer Koerner has distribut-
ed the last lot Of the $4,000 pounds of beet
seed which the state has had on hand
for several years. The seed was purchas-
ed in Germany and by an act Of the last
legislature the state treasurer was au-
thorized to make distribution of 1t.
Large counties were given $50 pounds and
small ones 300 pounds, and some of the
northern counties only got 100 pounds.
1t required about sixteen pounds to
properly seed an acre of ground, and the
beets are very prolific, as it has proven
beyond experiment that Minnesota's soil
Is well adapted to sugar beet culture. The
distribution was made through the coun-
ty auditors.
