PLANT MANY TREES
School Children Were Busy
on Arbor Day

~ ~
Records being compiled for the forth
coming biennial report of j. w. Olsen,
state superintendent of public instruc--
ton show that 7,540 trees were planted
by the children of /, 442 districts on Ar
ber day of 1904. The report will show
that there are 1918 schools which are
set among trees planted under direc-.
tion of the school officers, and 2, ,068
school. houses are located in natural
groves.
Interesting statistics are shown in
the report The average salary of the
county. superintendents of schools of
the state is $1,094.7S, and their average
length of service is 5.5 years. There
were issued by the county superin-
tendents during the year at special ex-
aminations 122 first grade. 1856 second
grade and 1863 third grade certificates.
There were. 237 district and county
teachers association meetings held
during the year, with a total enroll
ment of 7,54S teachers.
Seven districts consolidated during
the year into three districts, showing
falling off in favor of the once pop
ular consolidated school plan in the ru-
raj schools of the state. There We're
than 10 pupils, and 1.294 districts with
an enrolment of more than 10 and less
than 20 pupils.
The biennial report will be issued
at the close Of the present year, and
copies will be sent to the governor
and the legislature.

Harper's Book News
The Truants

1t is a queer thing about
books, how one goes and the
other, sometimes just as good,
falls flat. There seems to be a
kind Of free masonry in the
way novel gets talked into
prominence. This story Of A..
E.-W. Mason's is being thrust
into the front in somewhat
this fashion. 1t is a pretty fine
story, too-strong, virile,
things happening all the time.
The woman in the cast is not
any better than she should be,
although pure enough from
an Englishman's point OF
view, so it must be the man
who appeals. He is fine, big,
and man clear through.

would be compelled to make applica-
ton to the city council for new
charter said Mr.. Michael. "fhere is
mistaken impression abroad as to the
nature of the litigation between the
company and the city So far as l can
learn it is the apparent belief of the
people that the city is fighting the
street railway company. The facts are
that the company is attempting to seize
all the streets of the city, excepting
about a dozen. 1t would seem to me.
that the company should pay the city
for the use of the streets. A business
man is compelled to pay rent for the
property he uses, yet we give to this
company without charge the use of a
large number of our streets, and it Is
claiming the right to use the others.
Ridicules Threat
"The statement is made in behalf of
the company that it would not make
the extensions If the city should win N
the supreme court That kind of talk
is ridiculous. Just as well say that a
retail business house can refuse to ad-ss
vertise and the wholesale houses call in
their travelling men. If the compro-
mise is made with the company on the
basis that the company will escape all
responsibility under the charter it We're.
better that the city had not engaged in
the litigation"
H. w. Fagley, appearing as a mem
ber of the Chamber of Comerce COM
mittee, argued that the concessions the;
company proposes to make at the pres,
ent time are far more important to the
city than the $4,000 year that might
be realized from the gross earnings tax,
He thought one of the most important
concessions offered by the company
was agreeing to building couple of
electric lines towards the southern part
of the state.
sBut these lines will be constructed
anyway, will they not, Mr.. Mum"
asked Corporation Attorney Michael.
Possibly" answered Mr.. Mum.
Thomas Cochran was very sure that
the compromise should be arranged,
and the company allowed to spend the
$1,000, 900 that is now lying useless.
John S. Mitchell, for the city develop
ment committee. stated that while the.
committee had recommended that the
company be compelled to pay the gross
earnings tax, that he had changed his
mind after hearing Mr.. Munn's argu-
ment He felt sure that a majority OF
the members of the committee would
coincide with the action he had taken.
The gross earnings tax, he insisted, is
not nearly so important as other fea-
lures connected with the company.
Among those present favoring COM
promise We're: J. H. Beck, B. III.
Schriber, ]. S. Mitchell, A. S. Tall
madge, H. w. Fagley, c. w. Gordon,
w. A. Van Slyl1e, Thomas Cochran and
j. e. Markham for the commercial
bodies M. d. Munp, c. G.. Goodrich and
George Thompson represented the COM
pany. Chairman Haas will likely to-
day announce the special committee to
carry on the negotiations.

HENN[PIN SENATOR'S
TO CAUCUS TONIGHT.
Upper House Members Unable
to Ge Together to lndorse
Gilfilian

The caucus of the Hennepin county
Republican senators, which had been
set for last night, was not held, and it
was announced yesterday that the
meeting would be held tonight, and if
not then as soon as the senators could
get together.
Senator E. F. Comstock was out of
town last night, another senator sent
word he was i'll, and four of the six
senators were unable to be present. 1t
had been intended that the senator's
should meet and indorse the candidacy
of j. B. Gilfillan, and that joint eau
Gus of senators and house members
should follow, at which the seal of ap-f
proval Of the delegation should be put
on Mr.. Gifillan's candidacy.
ciapp Forces Astonished
News of the Endorsement of Gilfil-
Ian by the house delegation, save the
vote of Representative j. G.. Lund, yes
terday caused mild surprise in the
Clapp camp. for it is said that several
of the Minneapolis house members had
given the Clapp managers assurances
that Hennepin would not formally in
dorse Gilfillan Lunds negative vote is
claimed by the Clapp men to Indicate
his friendship for the Junior senator.
but Gillian men say that Lund is
ready to vote for Gilillan when the.
senators and house members of his
county meet in joint caucus
tGiIfllan has forced the caucus,
st. Paul politician said yesterday. The
Minneapolis candidate has determined
to find out his standing with his home
delegation. If the Hennepin members
are not willing to go into a caucus and
back him up with their votes. they can.
not be depended upon to stand by him
to the end in the senatorial canvass. The;
Gil61lan managers are having troubles
of their own. Possibly the same con-.
dition prevails in Minneapolis that has
been giving Senator Clapp's managers
some trouble in st. Paul. The delega-
ton is friendly enough, but they shy
at caucus with their names attached
to a little piece of paper. There are so
many things that are likely to turn up
that the members want to be foot loose
to a certain extent.
Van SAINTS Attitude
A persistent effort to bring Gov Van
SAINT into the senatorial race is being.
made by interests antagonistic to Sen
ator Clapp. A number of boomers were
about the hotels yesterday talking Gov.
Van SAINT as dark horse candidate,
and Senator H. A Morgan, of Albert
Lea, was said to have declared for the
governor yesterday. The governor was
not at the capitol during the day, but
he had told his friends Tuesday that
he could not be considered as a candi-
date Many politicians assigned the
activity in newspapers and among the
third house opposition in favor of Van
SAINT to the Heatwole influence in state
politics.

EXPENSE ACCOUNTS
Judge Jaaaard Leads the LIST
In the Amount Ex-
pended

Today being the last day on which
statements of campaign expenses can
be filed by candidates and committees,
many such statements were filed yes
terday with the county auditor.
BY far the largest sum reported by
any candidate was paid out by Judge
Jaggard, Republican nominee for the
state supreme court, who was elected.
He expended $1,490 throughout the
state, including $400 to the Repub-
lican state central committee; $500 to
the Ramsey county committee and to
other organizations; $500 for a private
secretary, postage, etc.
Oscar Hallam, Republican candidate
for the district bench, who was elected
according to the returns, gave his
county committee $500, spent $125 for
printing and $125 for the canvassing
of voters, and paid out altogether
S57S5O.
Walter L. Chaplin, unsuccessful can
didate for the Republican nomination
as district judge, spent $3.50, including
S175 for advertising and $275 for the
canvass of voters.
T. D. O'Brien, Democratic candidate
for the district bench, gave $225 to
the city and county committee for the
general election, expended $fS.5O Tor,
the primary election, and disbursed III
all $596.16.
Peter ]. Metzdorf, Democratic cam
didate for reelection as county treas
urer, expended $61S, of which $125 went
for printing and postage and $25O was
contributed to the county committee.
Louis H. Peter, Republican candl-
date for. county commissioner, de1eated
at the primary election, spent $122
Lee Hall. in seeking vainly the DEM
ocratic nomination for register OF
deeds, paid out $42.50, of which $50
was received by the county committee.
The Republican city and county conf
mittee, according to the statement OF q.
F.. Dix treasurer, received from can
didates and others" $4,805.97, and had
$1042 left when the campaign was
ended.i
OF the total expended, hall rent con-
sumed 1896; music, $685.; postage, $125;
printing, advertising and press work,
$S6S.15; canVassing and checking up or
registration, 500; challengers, $615;
headquarters and Seeretary'S office ex-
penses, $607.40. But ~canvassing vot-
ers, etc. took no less than $1,449.
More saving was the Prohibition
committee, which would probably not
have spent $121.72 had not w. A.
Powers advanced a loan of 81 to
balance the account. On hall rent the
Prohibition committee wasted the
modest sum of Sc.
A number of candidates filed their
statements of disbursements with the
secretary of state.
John Day Smith, who is apparently
elected to the district bench in Henne-
pin county, admits having expended
$51215, of which amount $3.50 was
given to the Republican county COM
mittee; John Mckenzie, Republican
candidate for the Legislature in the
Seventeenth senatorial district, shows
by his statement that he expended
$527.28, and Charles J. Bartleson, a
candidate for the judiciary in the Hem
nepin county district, admits having
spent SO in the primary canvass.

|HOL LDS UP TWO GIRLS
Unknown Man Robs and AZ.
tempts to Assault Them

~
Two young women, Miss Ida Ritter,
1929 German avenue and Miss Anna
Martin, 133 East Winifred street were
held up and Iassaultd by an unknown
man early Tuesday evening on East
Isabel street. -.-s --sa.sss=5sss-.'-
The holdups were perpetrated about
8 o'clock, and one occurred shortly
after the other. The strange man at
tackled the young women and attempt
ed to choke them after frightening
them with revolver.
Miss Ritter was the first victim of
the brute. She was walking alone
when the man accosted her near Wa
basfla, on Isabel street. He thrust a
revolver into her face and demanded
her money. She handed him her purse,
containing some small change, when
he seized her by. the throat and at
tempted to drag her from the sidewalk.
She resisted, striking him with her
fists, and in spite of. his clutch on. her
throat, screamed as she struggled. A
young man passing within-a block, at
tracted by her cries, ran to her, and
her assailant released her.
Nearly Frustrated, after the excite
ment had subsided she was taken into
a drug store, where a physician at
tended her. She was later conducted
to her home.
The attack upon Miss Martin was
made in the same way, within a short
up. She was also alone, and the man
stopped her by pointing a revolver in
her face.
In response to his demand for money
she handed him Is cents, all she had
with her, and he then caught her by
the throat. She screamed and a num-
Der of men and women came from
their homes in the vicinity The man
ran away and was not seen again.
A few hours after the two assaults
took place Patrolman Hurley arrested
a man whom the police believe attack
ed the two young women. He gave his
name as Arthur Bennett, and said he
came to st. Paul from Winnipeg six
street, and was employed at a West
side factory. He is twenty-five years
old.
Although he denies that he is guilty,
Miss Ritter. who last night went to the
station, told the police that he was the
man who attacked her. Miss Martin
was unable to leave her home yester-
day and did not see Bennett. Mrs.
Julius Peter, $50 Stryker avenue. who
was stopped and beaten by a man on
the night of Nov. %, identified Ben
nett as the man who struck her.
AS Bennett had not been identified
until last night the police continued
their search yesterday. The South st.
Paul police arrested man in Spring
Park, giving his name as w. w.
Haight, who was suspected because his
description corresponded to that given
by the young woman. When brought
to ST. Paul by Detective Daily, how
ever he WAS released.
