SENTIMENTAL OVER TREES
The Telling OF Twelve Giant Poplars
Creates Something OF
Sensation.

The cutting down of the row of 12
giant poplars on Forty-eighth street, as
told in the chicago Inter Ocean recent
ly, crCal>,. veritaple sensation. The
trees stood in the middle of the street.
in the bioG!; between Grand boulevard
and Calumet avenue, and were felled so
that the street might be paved. 1t was
big job, and workmen are still busy
saving up the huge trunks. Everybody
stopped and stared with all their ewes.
There was almost as great a variety of
comment as of spectators. While some
were merely curious, the majority
seemed to become possessed very quick
ly by sort of "woodman-spare-th
tree emotion" Those who approved
of the work were very small minority.
One man was heard to say:
That's good; now they can fix up
that block SOS it'll look like some
thing"
I'm glad of it," said one petty soul
in the shape of a woman; 1--WE always
wanted to ride my bicycle through that
old mudhole of a street"
But, as a rule, the women shook their
heads and looked sentimental over the
downfall of the half-century giants.
Sometimes they added: "What shame
to cut down those beautiful trees" or
What can those men be thinking of?"
The men used harsher language. One
man stopped, looked on a moment in
disgust and remarked so that every
one, including the foreman, could hear
him:
eff I owned property in this block
you fellows would be looking into the
mouth of a shotgun"
While the last tree was being felled
quiet old gentleman, who seemed too
meek and gentle to say 'Shoo!" to
fly, walked straight up to the foreman,
looked him in the eye, and, with infinite
contempt, said, firmly:
"Save the last one to hang your
self on"
