OBSERVE ARBOR DAY.

Beauty will never cease to be an adj
mirable quality. The human eye is
directed from infancy to all objects of
an attractive appearance. Nature has
laid down certain laws governing
these conditions which cannot be over
ruled, and for the betterment of man
kind should be closely observed.
The custom now in vogue of setting
aside a day each year for planting
trees, is an excellent one. Forests
will soon be things of the past, for
even those carefully cared-for saplings
of the present day can never take the
place of the giant oak. Their shade
and beauty, while adding much to hui
manity's comfort, can never equal in
grandeur the o1d-time forest. 1t is not
to be expected that the hand of man
can do what has existed since his Gre
alton. But he can, in measure, save
the world from being a barren wilder
ness.
Great honor is due the late ]. Ster1-
ing Morton, the founder of Arbor day.
His constant motto was, "P1ant trees"
and although it took years to bring
the matter to the attention of the pub
| lie. he lived to witness the success of
his careful 1abors. Starting the move
ment in his home State, Nebraska, liz
1872, it has spread far and wide, until,
as result, millions of new trees are
rising from the soil to bless coming
generations.
"Words pass as winds,
But where great deeds are done,
A power abides
| Transfused from sire to son.
Can any greater monument be
erected to Mr.. Mortou's memory than
the perpetuation of Arbor day? It's
establishment was the proudest
achievement of his life. Every tree
we plant shall be tribute of honor to
memory, a reminder Of noble deeds
handed down to posterity.
| In the observance of Arbor day the
| school has been made the center of op-
eratiops. Instilling into the minds of
our youth the noble principle of living
for others we can look forward to a
time when the fruitage of those efforts
shall bless the nation. Not alone to
children must this work be left but
every patron of the school should lend
a hand 10 make the surroundings more
attractive. May every school in Ke.
nosha county observe Arbor day.

Louis Minnich OF Winthrop Harbor,
Makes a Sensational Attempt on
the Life OF HoIahan.
FIRES SHOTS ON THE STREET.
Minnich who is Butcher Placed Under
Arrest but Escapes With Fine of $500
Holahan Escapes Unnurt.

Great excitement prevailed in the
village of Winthrop Harbor Tuesday
afternoon when Louis Minnich, the
well known market man village
made an attempt to shoot John Hola-
han, a young man of the village.
The trouble occurred on the main
street of the village and caused the
widest excitement. Young Holahan
had been loa fng about the meat mar
ket operated by Minnich until the lat
ter had become tired of him and sever
al times he had ordered him to leave
the place.
The younger man was extremely
saucy and seemed inclined to twit the
butcher. At last Munich lost his
temper and selling the young man by
market. This started the trouble and
Minnich in his excitement ran into
the shop and selling rifle ran after
the boy and as the latter was turning
the corner near the Truesde1l store,
Minnich fired. In another minute he
had been taken in charge by lot of
the people of the town. Holahan
escaped unhurt. Minnich was arrest
ed this morning and when taken be-
fore Justice Truesdell ssfor a hearing
he declared that the rifle was TWEEN
ty-two calibre rifle and that it would
have been Impossible for him to have
harmed the boy with it.
He claimed that he shot at the boys
legs with the sole purpose of soaring
him and forcing him to keep away
from the Minnich business house.
The constable found Munich guilty of
disorder1y conduct and fined him
twenty-five dollars and costs of the &C
ton. The fine was paid.
AS the parties to the affair are we'll
known in Winthrop the shooting Gre
ated great excitement and at the trial
this morning the court room of JUS
tice Truesdell was crowded with
people.
