SLABS STONEMASON
Joseph Reislnger Is Accused
of Cutting Daniel Hedberg


Daniel Hedberg, stonemason, was
stabbed in the abdomen yesterday af-
ternoon while at work at st. Bernards
church, Geranium and Albemarle
streets. Joseph Reisinger, 975 Gaultier
street, is under arrest at the Rondo
station charged with the assault. He'd
berg is at the city hospital in critical
condition.
Members of the crew with which
Hedberg was at work yesterday. said
that Reisinger had been discharged
Monday night and that he came
around yesterday in an intoxicated
condition.
Reisinger, it is said, walked about on
top of the masonry on which the men
place where Hedberg was standing
kicked a stone loose from the mortar.
Hedberg demonstrated with him, and
jerked him from the wall to scaffold.
The men then scuff1ed and Hedberg is
said to have been attempting to re-
sumo work when Reisinger drew a
small pocket knife and stabbed him in
the side. The other men rushed to the
spot and Reisinger ran away. He was
captured later at his home by Detec-
tives Shedorslly and McHale.
Hedberg was taken ito the home of
Rev. Anthony Ogulin, pastor of the
church, and was later removed to the
city hospital in the police ambulance.
Hedberg is fffty-six years old, and re-
sides at los Bellevue avenue. 1t is be-
lieved that he will recover.

THEIR TREES 1--we
ChiIdren's Work on Arbor Day
Brings Surprising Results

Tree planting on last Arbor day in
st. Paul resulted most satisfactorily,
a greater per cent of the trees living
than was expected, according to reports
received by Supt Smith from the pub
lie school principals and forwarded to
Mrs. S. P. McMurran, secretary of the
Thursday club.
A year ago the club initiated the
movement of furnishing the school chill
dren with fruit trees to plant. Wheth-
er it was because of the rainy season,
or otherwise, a larger number of the
trees are reported alive and growing
than was considered possible. In
many instances the proportion is as
high as 95 per cent.
The facts greatly encourage the pos
sibilities of fruit growing in this CHI
mate, as all of the trees come from the
states experiment farm, and are of a
character that are suited to local con-
ditionS. When matured it is said by
the farm authorities, that they will be
bearers of fine apples and pears. AS
several thousand trees were used on
the first trial, it is expected that the
favorable results will encourage the
practice of planting fruit-bearing trees.
1T would seem that the results thus
demonstrated should encourage the dis
tribution of fruit trees among the chill
dren,''s said Supt.7 Smith. According
to the information given me by the
principals the children are taking in
terest in the trees that they planted
last April, being careful to report to
| their teachers the exact progress made.
All the information that l have collect
ed will be turned over to the Thursday
club, as it bears upon the future course
of the club in the distribution of such
trees"

SCHROEDER ON TOP
Lafayette Man Wins the Butter
Scoring Contest

Alfred Schroeder Jr., of Lafayette,
Mimi, has secured the highest rating,
96.43 per cent, in the twelve consecu-
tive monthly competitions of the ''edu-
cational buttermaking contest" held
under the auspices of the state dairy
and food commission. The contest be-
gan last November and ended this
month.
Mr.. Schroeder will, therefore, receive
one of the silver cups to be given to
the best buttermalers by Gov. Van
SAINT, the Minnesota state dairy and
food commission, and the Minnesota
worlds fair commission respectively.
The two other cups will go OF ]. G..
Joslin, of Winsted, and M. Sondergaard,
of Hutchinson, who hold the second
and third places in the contest. Mr..
Joslin's rating for twelve months was
1886, and Mr. Sendergaard's was
95.79 The order in which the cups
will be awarded has not been deter
mined.
Of 100 contestants, 25 reached the
high average of "a per cent. This is
more significant inasmuch as the
twenty-five are leading buttermakers
of a state which has heretofore won
first place at three out of four COM
petitions in which the principal states
of the Union took place, as well as
several foreign countries.
