Riverside drive.
The trees are now under observation
at the experimental station of the i'm
perial agricultural department in Tokyo

The imperial entomologist has notified
lie park department that the delay in

reese cherry trees presented to the city
, or Washington by the aldermen of To-
kyo short time ago, were not care
fully respected and died soon after ar
rlYing in America.

panied by a bronze tablet and a formal
letter of presentation executed by stu.
