1872 that Mr.. Morton conceived the idea OF this
unique holiday and he forthwith introduced be-

and there is a portion Of the public that inclines
to this belief today. The new scheme proved an
emphatic success and more than one million
trees were planted throughout Nebraska on that
first Arbor Day. Not only were the children OF
the public schools interested from the outset. but
individuals and local societies Of various kinds
participated. This was due in part. no doubt. to
the fact that the Nebraska State Board OF Agri'
culture. which created the holiday. offered prize
Of one hundred dollars to the agricultural society
Of that county which planted properly the largest
number of trees. and provided O farm library
and purse Of twenty-five dollars for the person
who planted the largest number Of trees.

1874 the governor, by Oficial proclamation. desig'

of the state formally designated Arbor Day as
holiday the date was changed to April 20. II Ne

Sometime since in a postal to

would write something soon for

November, and arrived at Por-

26th, being almost continuously

six days, and travelling over
about three thousand miles. l
came over the Illinois Central R.
R., to New Orleans, and from
there over the Southern Pacific,
passing through on the latter,
Texas, New Mexico and Arizona,
and into this State via Los An
geles. Over the l. C. we passed
through Paducah, KY, Memphis
Tenn, Jackson, Miss, the prin-
cipal cities on route and into
New Orleans about 9 O'Clock at
night, hence, | saw but little OF
this city. l however, had a good
view of theferrying of the train
across the Mississippi river, on a
pontoon bridge. | suppose it
was controlled by a tug at each
end.
In Texas we run through
Beaumont, of field oil fame, Hous-
ton, San Antonio and ElPaso,
where we arrived some time af-
ter dark. Since we had a STOP
over there for two or three hours,

conductor, CROSSE d the Rio

rez, Mexico, sight seeing. Isaw
marked evidences of the late bat
tie there between insurectos and
regulars in a number of houses
whose walls were riddled with
solid shot and shell, from which
they caught fire Ind were ruined.
| also saw a church building, I
suppose Catholic, said to be four
centuries old.
Houston, Texas is a beautiful
looking city, but l saw but little
of San Antonio and ElPaso, since
| passed through both Of these
at night, but the latter, what |
saw of it, showed up by electric
lights. The slip of New Mexico
we run through was made at
night, consequently | saw moth
of the country.
The scenery in some pl ces
along the S. P, in Texas, Ari-

very fine, and at one point in the
Sierra Nevada mountains be-
tween here and Los Angeles, the
road makes a considerable wind !

and runs under itself in It's de-
