CELEBRATE
ARBOR DAY
IN ALL PROBABILITY THE DAY
WILL BE APPROPRIATELY OBJ
SERVED BY THE CITY
SCHOOLS.
State Superintendent Miller Makes Some
wise Suggestions for celsbrat-
IN the Day.

ArbOr Day win likely be observed by
the city schools, although no definite
action has yet been taken in the matter.
The day set aside this year by State
Superintendent OF Schools Thomas c.
Miller, for ArbOr Day, is Friday, April
18th.
In the announcement that has been
sent to the schools, the superintendent
suggests that not only should the
schools grounds be adorned, but also the
home grounds and streets and highways.
In many places this has already been
done, and dusty, unsightly streets and
roads have been redeemed and bcautified
bv rows Of shade trees. Nothing makes
a place % attractive as fine foliage, and
great elm or mable atones for many
defects in road, street or yard.
This home and street Improvement
side of Arbor Day is an important one.
and Is most fully appreciated by one
who has seen small western boom
town, or one of our mining villages, y
ing in all its sn-beatcn squalor, and
later has seen it with its worst places
atoned for By trees.
The teachers and officers connected
with the various schools of the state are
urged by Superintendent Miller to en-
courage this movement in every way
possible. Too many trees are cut down
and too few planted. \ fine elm o.
maple is always show spot wherever
it may be, and a movement to increase
them should be fostered.
The commercial idea is also coming
into Arbor Day, and this time in various
sections is taken for the planting OF
large tracts with nut. bearing trees. and
with trees that will be valuable for lum.
Der. This, of course, is purely in the
way of money getting, but it is good
thing If it helps to preserve the trees.

William H. Fr,isR, night foreman in
the Phoenix coal mines at Wolf Sum-
init, which recently began operations,
met with a very serious accident At mid
night Thursday: His injuries are Of a
precarious nature and the attending ply
stefan has not yet determined their ex-
act extent. His chest is badly crushed
and his hips cut and mashed.
The accident occurred in the mines.
Frush was engaged with force of men
IN bringing out a car load Of cable. He
Jumped on the front bumper OF the car,
which was being pulled out of the mine
with cable. There are some low places
in the roof. He appears to have for
gotten that fact, and stood erect. in
stead of assuming STOPPING posture,
rs the car approached one of these low
places. As the result he came in con-
tact with the roof and as the ear, was
being hauled at good speed, the roof
struck him in the breast and bent him
forward, but fortunately did not knock
him of the car. which. if that had hap
pened, would have meant a horrible
death, as he would have been crushed.
When the car was pulled to the open
ing he was still on it, but deathly sick
and irrational. He was taken to his
home in the neighborhood and physi-
clan was summoned. His relatives were
notified here at an early hour and his
brother, George. the barber, went out to
his home with a physician. lie found
him in very bad shape and at times ir-
rational. He experienced great diff
Guilty in breathing. and it is believed
the internal injuries are very serious,
but hope is entertained that they are not
fatal.
The breast bones were badly broken
and his hips received ngly gashes. Hi,
condition is such that the physicians
will not allow him TO take nourishment
at present.
Frush is about IS years old. He has
wife and seven children. lie formerly
lived here, but has been employed at
the Phoenix mines some weeks.
The injuries are of such nature
that. If he survives them, he will not
be able to work for several weeks.
