ARBOR
DAYS
ROOSEVELT ADDRESSES
SCHOOL CHILDREN.
ADVISES THAT THEY OBSERVE
THE DAY THOUGHTFULLY
THE MESSAGE.

President Roosevelt has addressed
'"To the School Children of the United
States message on the subject Of
Arbor day. He advises that they OBJ
serve the day thoughtfully. The mes
sage says:
"Arbor day is now observed in every
state in our union, mainly in the
schools. At various times you give a
day or part of a day to special eXer-
cises or to actual tree planting.
ut is we'll that you should celebrate
your Arbor day thoughtfully, for with
in your lifetime the nations need of
trees will become serious. We of the
older generation can get along with
what we have, though with growing
hardship, but in your full manhood and
womanhood you will want what nature
once SO bountifully supplied and man
so thoughtlessly destroyed; and be-
what we have wasted.
For the nation. as for the man or
woman and the boy or girl, the road to
success is the right use of what we
have and the improvement of present
opportunity. If you neglect to prepare
yourselves now for the duties and re-
sponsibilities that will fall on you
later; if you do not learn the things
which you will need to know when
your school days are over, you will
suffer the consequences. So any ma
ton which in it's youth lives only fol
the day, reaps without sowing ant
consumes without outstanding, mus
expect the penalty of the prodigal
whose labor could with difficulty fine
him the bare means of life.
"A people without children would
face hopeless future; a country with
out trees is almost as hopeless. 4
true forest is not merely storehous'
full of wood, but, as it were, factor,
of wood and at the same time reser
voir of water. When you help to pre-
serve our forests or to plant ney
ones you are acting the part of goo
citizens. The value of forestry dc
serves therefore to be taught in tn
schools. If your Arbor day exercise
help you to realize what benefits eac
one of you receive from the forest
and how by your assistance these benz
fits may continue, they will serve
good end.

BISHOP MAY BE SENT.
To Administer to Spiritual Needs OF
Ruthenian Catholics.

Rome-The Vatican has refused to
send heretofore to the various religious
communities in the United States,
speaking a language other than Eng
fish, bishops of their own nationality,
but is inclined to consider the matter
from a different standpoint in the case
of the United Ruthenian Catholics Of
America, who, while acknowledging
the headship of the pope, retain the
old Green Slavonic liturgy and allow
their secular clergy to marry. Thus
the congregation of the propaganda
has taken under advisement the ap-
pointment of Ruthenian bishop for
America.

EARTH

FOUR MINUTE EARTH
QUAKE, MEXICO CITY.
NO LIVES REPORTED LOST, BUT
MANY BUILDINGS ARE
CRUMBLED.

City of Mexico, April 15.-An earth
quake lasting four and half minutes
startled in this city Sunday night. The
earth rocked in long, swinging mo-
ton, terrifying the inhabitants, but do
ing no damage so far as can be learn
ed at this city.
Clocks stopped at 1884 (Mexican
time) and the perceptible motion of
the earth ceased at 1888 IL. Tele-
graph wires were put out of commits
sion and for shsrt time the city was
in darkness, owing to the failure of
the electric lights.
The asphalt on one of the principal
business streets of the city was
| cracked open for a distance of 10
yards.
People fed from their houses into
the streets.
| At the police stations no deaths had
been reported up to 12:45 a. m.
| No reports have yet come from the
American colony, but it is not believed
| that serious damage was sustained
there, although the houses, unlike
those in, the old section of the city
are not built to withstand earthquake
shocks. At the time of the first SHOCK
the cafes and theaters were filed ant
for a time a panic was feared, bu
owing to the peculiarly steady swing
ing motion of the earth the crowds lief

The city is comparatively quiet, a
though the streets are thronged wit

Chilpancingo, Mex, April 16.-This
city has been completely destroyed by
an earthquake. The killed number il
and the badly injured 81. The great
est panic prevails and people are flee.
ing to the open country. The earth
seemed to rock at half hour intervals
and many minor shocks are completing
the work of destruction begun by the
first quake.
Word has reached here that the town
of Chilapa, 40 kilometers to the north
eastward, has also been destroyed. No
details have been received as to the
number of the dead and injured.
The population of Chilpancingo is
749S and until the panic into which
the citizens have been thrown abates,
it will be impossible to state the num-
Der of casualties.
The population of Chilapa is 15, 900.
No word has been received from Tixtla
and it is feared it slso has been des-
troyed. According to the movements of
the earthquake, Tixtla would be in its
direct line.
Form late messages II appears tha'
the entire south half of the republic in
cluding the lower country and the me-
saba belt felt the shock.
The National Bank of Mexico has re
ceived telegram stating that SOC
lives were lost at the destruction OF
I Chilapa and Chilpancingo. In govern
ment circles the report IS not credited
1t is admitted that both cities were
leveled to the ground, but it is no,
thought that the death list will ever
approximate 500, owing to the fac
that the houses are built of stone in or
der to resist earthquake shocks.
The federal authorities have been ap
pealed to by the governors of the dis
tricts of Barvos and Chilapa for tents
} as the inhabitants are now living il
the open.
The governor of Guerrero has dis
, patched military engineers and troop
to the stricken district.
Both cities are SO isolated that it
; impossible to obtain accurate and rapi
r intelligence of the disaster.

Samuel Tucker of the good ship "Pine Tree,
whose praises were sung during the Revolution,
was evidently issued from old Scotch family
of that name from of the three brothers who
emigrated from Dundee, one of whom settled in
South Carolina, one in Virginia, the third in
Massachusetts, They were maritime people, as
shown by their coat armor; sea horses upon the
shield demi sea horse for the crest and in this
country they all seem to have taken naturally to
the sea. For many years they were ship build
ers, or merchantmen, owning their own craft,
and carrying a thriving trade between the
colonies or the West Indies and the mother
country.
Andrew Tucker settled in Marblehead Mass,
where he married Mary Belcher an English lady
