ARBOR DAY.

Gov. La Toilette has issued proc
lamation setting aside Friday, May
9th, as Arbor and Bird day, and State
Superintendent, L. ID. Harvey, has com
piled an Arbor and Bird Day annual
and sent same out to the schools of the
state, 1t suggests lines of work for the
proper observance of the day
Mr. Harvey, in letter to the teachers
of the state, urges them to endeayor to
make the school house as attractive
as possible. He says; The lessons of
the day should be but the beginning of
the work for the entire year The
teacher must be the leader and iasprer
in that work. He also asks the teach
er TO make persistent effort to cultivate
in the children love for the beautiful
in nature and an acquaintance with
and protecting care for the birds that
make their homes in the vicinity and
says that if this is done the observance
of Arbor and Bird day may be made the
starting point for study of natpre and
for the development of a taste Cor the
beautiful, not only in the school bot in

STRIKE AT PAPER MILLS.

A strike is now on at the plant of the
Wausau Paper Mills Co. at Brokaw,
which commenced on the date which
we stated in these columns two weeks
ago, it had been agreed by the union
to walk out. Brokaw Lodge No. 80 of
the Papermakers' Union comprises
about twenty -four of the mill hands,
which includes greater portion of the
skilled labor. The dispute which we
mentioned two weeks ago in regard to
the "scab' who was working in the mill
had been settled to the satisfaction of
the men, When they again became rest
less and demanded shorter hours. Itap-
pears that there was contract in force
between the union and company, the
life of which covered sixty days The
men have been working seventy-two
hours each week and demand a ten hour
day with certain other privileges. Up
on refusal of the company to comply
with the demand all but three of the
union men walked out Saturday morn
ing, the three wishing to fulfill the con-
tract. Yesterday the company tele
phoned to Wausau that some of the
leaders were demonstrative, and asked
the sheriff to either come or send man
up to quiet matters. Undersheriff
Chellis went up and has remained there
since, but we learn that everything is
quiet and that there is no fear of trouble
1t appears that nearly every mill in the
Wisconsin River Valley is at present
experiencing trouble with labor.

GOT FIVE YEARS.

Emil Hoffmeister, who attempted
to take the life of Herman Ramthun at
Hackbarth's place in the town of Wau
sau on the evening of April Goth, was
arraigned before Judge Miller yester-
day morning charged with attempted
murder. He waived preliminary ex-
animation and was bound over to APP
pear in circuit court under 1900
bonds. With him the waving of exam
ination was merely form, as he had
previously expressed a desire of going
before the circuit Judge and pleading
guilty to the charge. Sheriff Mar
quardt took him up to Merrill on the
afternoon freight that he might make
his pleading before the judge, who is
now holding court there. The judge,
after Hoffmeister had been arraigned
and plead guilty, sentenced the prison
er to serve eight years at hard labor in
the state prison at Waupun, the 29th
day of April to be solitary confinement.
He will be taken down this evening.
From what we have learned since
the shooting took place we are Of the
opinion that for the safety of citizens
it is better that Hoffmeister is behind
prison bars. than If he were allowed TO
enjoy his liberty 1t is said that he
stated he had singled out five different
persons whom be intended to make
corpses of. After he had shot Ramthun,
and the latter had been carried away,
he asked if his victom were dead. A
reply in the negative brought fourth
the exclamation Il thought ! was \
better shot
Hoffmeister has sand farm of ten
acres east of the city and has wife
and eight children While some of
the children are old enough to provide
for themselves. the rest of the fsraily
are left in destitute circumstances sand
since the father has been confined ia
Jail the town board has had to PROVIDE
food for the family.

LUMBER BURNS.

Word was received here at an early
hour Saturday morning that large
fire was in progress in the lumber yards
of the Stevens Lumber Co at Rhineland-
er, and assistance was asked of this
city A flat car and engine was secured
of the Northwestern road, and at 1870 a
IN. Chas. Maynard, Chas Weik and
Rollin Gruenewald left the city with
the fire steamer U hose. Their run
to Rhinelahder was very slow for the
reason that they were side tracked
twice enroute to allow regular trains to
pass, and it was not until 1910, nearly
six hours afterward, that they reached
their destination.
The fire was discovered Friday after
noon in the north end of the Stevens
yard, and before it was gotten under
control had destroyed 100000 feet of
lumber.
Saturday morning while the pumps,
which had been damaged, were being
repaired the fire broke out afresh and
it was then that assistance was asked
of this city. Before the Wausau boys
and steamer had arrived, however, the
fire was under control As the pumps
were damaged it was requested that
the engine be left there during the day.
The request was granted and the steam
er and men were held until Sunday
morning.
For time it looked as is the Stevens
mill would be consumed, but it was
saved by cutting away tramways.
The lumber burned was owned by j.
H. Queal & Co., Minneapolis; John
Godkin, Bay City, Mich, and the Wix-
n-Bronson Lumber Co., of Rhinelan-
der, the amouDt owned by the Mime
apolis firm Icing about two-thirds of
the total amocut burned. All were
fully protected by insurance.
Mayor Marchetti received the follow
ing telegram from Rhinelander on Sat
urday, which speaks tor itself:
