to be planted this week. Yesterday
saw the first evidence of the splendid
improvements to be made by the state
on the sixty-acre tract along the west
ern edge of the Fort Douglas reserva-
ton, and when the main building of
the university, fronting the head OF
Second South street, and the four COM
panion edifices are completed next year,
the modern college buildings will be
surrounded by a beautiful young park.
Yesterday was a perfect day for the
busy work done on the university site.
1t was a day long to be remembered
by the scores of students, of whose toll
the students of future years will be ben
efactors. From early morn until almost
shutdown the various university classes
could be seen planting rows and groups
of maple, mountain ash, elm, horse
chestnut, linden and box elder. 1t was
not a day for theory or sentiment.
Every movement was characterized by
a precision that comes from university
training. Professor Lyman and his en-
gineering class, with their surveying in
struments, the boys digging with picks
and spades, the girls selecting the trees
and signaling on lines of precision, Pro-
fessor Howard and his botany students
deciding intricate points-all presented
scenes unfamiliar to the sagebrush hill
and made good subjects for Professor
Aliens camera
Early in the day the normal class of
'99, Seventy-Seven in number. met in
the southeast corner of the new campus
and planted ii grove of horse chestnuts.
Each student planted his or her sap
ling. During the afternoon, near the
northeast corner of the new field, the
seniors planted a group of eight elms;
the juniors, in the form of a heXagon,
planted naples and ashes, placing a
linden tree in the center. The fresh
men located a group of eight, the class
of 90 grove of twenty-five, the special
students a, pentagonaI group of six, and
the class of '01 a row of seven. The
college women each planted one, max
ing group of twelve; the Delta Phi
boys sought to perpetuate the name of
the fraternity by grouping trees into
the shape of the letters delta and phi;
and the surveying class set out a group
Of seven.
Double rows of stately young trees
were planted along the east fence, and
while all the students Joined in this la
Dor, the work was done according to a
fixed plan worked out by the engineer
ing class. Commencing where the
planting ceased the work will be con-
tinued this week by nurserymen, and
following the stakes the double row.
trees twenty-five feet apart and three
and twenty-three feet from the fence,
viii be set out around the entire tract.
Before Professor Lyman and his class
quit work for the day they set the
stakes for the double gates at the
northeast and northwest corners and
the Second South street entrance to the
grounds. The posts are nearly all up,
and within a week the entire tract will
be enclosed with a. combination wire
and picket fence. The young trees will
be watered from a ditch and laterals
from the Parley's creek canal until the
city water mains are extended to the
grounds

Canton, o., April 15.-Attorneys for the
state regard this as their red letter day
in the trial of Mrs. George. They pro-
duced eye-witnesses to the firing OF two
of the shots which took effect in SaxJJn' $
body. One of these claimed to have iden-
titled Mrs. George positively, and the
other testified that the woman she saw
do the shooting closely resembled Mrs
George. whom she knew only DIS she has
seen her in the court room.
The state also qualified a witness on
Mrs. Georges handwriting to identify y
letter which they want to Introduce in
evidence. They want to prove that Mayor
Rice, as counsel for Mrs. George, told
him where to find the weapon and sent
him after it.
Mrs Christine Eckroat presented start
ling testimony. She said she went TO her
window on the night of the murder after
hearing two shots, and saw a person
bending forward, who fired two shots to-

shooting. In cross-eXaminatiOn the de-
Tense sought to show chat the witness did
not know Mrs. George well enough to
identity her, and that it was too dark
for any one to recognize a person across

Mrs. Eckroat on cross-examination said
she had been using morphine for nine or
ten years. but for the last six months
