PLANT TREES IN MICHIGAN
Stock to Be Distributed at Nominal
Cost by State Agricultural In
stitution.

A law was recently passed by the
Michigan legislature for the encour-
agement of the planting Of fruit and
nut-bearing trees along the highways
of that state. Stock is to be distrib-
uted at nominal cost by the state ag-
ricultural college to local officials and
private individuals who will set it out,
under the supervision of the state
highway commission.
Whoever has Travelled over the tree
lined highroads of Europe will greet
with satisfaction this measure as the
beginning of policy of combining es-
thetic and economic values in our
methods of road-building.

ed Knee. 1t was the death knell of the
| Indian uprising
| For months afterwards, however, the
Sixth Cavalry was left to guard the
! Bad Lands and flank of the Pine
Ridge reservation. Every day Jack
Pershing rode patrol, with now and
then skirmish with small bands of
hostiles still roaming at large. The In
dams finally surrendered, though, and
the Sioux campaign passed into his
tory.
PERSHlNG BECOMES A LAWYER
With the ending of the campaign
came one of the most impressive re-
views the army has ever held. Cen
eral Miles brought together at one
point all the units Of his command
the largest body of troops assembled
UP to that time since the days Of the
Civil war. The Indians were invited to
witness the review. and the sight OF
/ those marching columns, mile upon
mile of them, parading through a light
snowfall by General Miles, made a
lasting impression upon the recent hos
| tiles. Never after that did they give
serious trouble.
Jack Pershing. shortly following the
| battle of Wounded Knee, was detailed
for time to Fort Niobrara, Neb., and
later to the Pine Ridge reservation
there to organize and command In
dian scouts. His knowledge of the In
dams made his work easy The In
dams trusted him implicitly, and some
Of the finest companies of Indian
scouts that ever served the army were
brought into being by him.
/ From the reservation Jack PershIng
| again returned to Fort Niobrara, where
he remained until Aug. 81, 1891, when
he was granted a leave of absence. He
returned to his home in Lincoln, Neb,.
and there, much to his delight, he was
to remain for four years. There, also,
much to his delight, he was able to at
tain one of the ambitions of his earlier
days-become a lawyer as well az n
soldier. For. while on leave, he was
detailed to become professor of mill
tary science and tactics at the Univer-
sity of Nebraska In Lincoln.

the university is interesting. AS
have told in a previous instalment
Jack Pershing's family, while he was
at West Point had moved to Lincoln.
Jack Pershing had visited the family
there when on leave, and the Lincoln
people had come to respect and love
him even as the people of his old home
town, Laclede, Mo. So when a vacancy
came in the chair of military science
and tactics at the university, leading
citizens of Lincoln decided they would
do their utmost to have the war de-
partment appoint Jack Pershing to the
post. Governor Thayer of Nebra ska
now dead personally asked the war
department to appoint Jack Pershing
and the department acted favorably
upon the request.
The appointment was made on Sept
25, 1891.
Jack Pershing assumed his new du-
ties on that day. And from that day
until Oct. I, 1895, when he was or
dered to join his command-the Tenth
Cavalry, then the crac0 colored troop
of the army to which he had been as
signed when he was promoted to q first
lieutenancy on Oct. 20. 1ss2-at Fort
Assinniboine. Montana, he gave the

that Jack Pershing will never be for

claim upon the fact that the generals

RELIEF FUND REACHES
VILLAGE OF TYLER
Commission Named By Governor
Leaves for Stricken Coun-
try

For almost a year, tornado-swept
Tyler, has lived in huts and shanties
for temporary housing accommoda-
tiOns. Last week the commission
appointed by Governor Burnquist to
distribute the state aid of $4,000
appropriated by the Legislature to be
used in the rebuilding of the town,
left st. Paul for Tyler.
Thousands of dollars already have
been expended in building temporary
structures. This money has come
from popular subscriptions and funds
borrowed by Tyler residents from
banks and outside interests.
Now, after the work of cleaning
up the debris has been handled and
the real construction work is in or
der, the state proposes to rebuild the
town, setting the matter in such a
way that every building destroyed
by the hurricane last summer is re-
placed.
Besides the $4,000 state aid the
commission has $4,000 from the
amount collected from sympathizers
last year.
The relief commission is composed
of S. R. Van SAINT, Minneapolis chair
man; T. o. F. Herzer, st. Paul, secre-
tary and business manager; S. L.

NIKE AND TOMMY WILL
BOX AT APPLETON
Gibbons Brothers, McKenna and
Whelan Compose Talent for
Exhibition June 4

Mike and Tommy Gibbons of st.
Paul, champion middle weight and
light weight boxers of the world and
Whelan and McKenna, two embryo
champions from the same city, will
each stage six round exhibitions at
the fair grounds at Appleton on the
evening of next Wednesday, June 4,
beginning at o'clock. Unusual in
terest attaches to the event from the
fact that this is the first time any of
these men have appeared outside of
the three larger cities of the state
and the people of the state outside
of these larger centers have not had
an opportunity to watch these ar
fists perform.
Unusual stress was placed upon the
art of self-defense in the military
service. When time permitted every
man was required to don the gloves
and get into the ring and give or
take a beating, before he went into
action. There was nothing brutal
about it, the men learned to protect
themselves under unusual c1rcum-
stances, and to stay on their feet in
spite of an occasional jar. In ad-
ditiOn, the military authorities found
it gave the men more self confidence,
and it was the self confidence OF the
Americans that carried them thru
with glory in this war.
The benefits derived in military
training by boxing are so apparent
that there is perhaps more interest
in it now than at any time before in
history, and civilians and returned
soldiers are all interested in learn
ing more about the game. The ap-
pearance of the Gibbons at Appleton
on June is an opportunity to see
how the boys who have mastered box
ing, perform.
An additional attraction will be
some flights by McElligott, of Apple
ton, in his aeroplane. McElligott is
q recently returned naval aviator,
who has a string of thrillers and can
at will. The person who travels the
longest distance to see the exhibit
tiOn will be awarded a 15-minute ride
in the plane. Aviators are making a
rate of 81 a minute for passengers
so the winning of this prize will
equal a SIS trip.
Train connections are good to APP
pletOn and roads will permit travel
for long distance by automobile and
it appears that the boxing-fiying
event will attract an immense crowd.

STRAHAN CAN SERVE AS
HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER

ATLANTA, August 2O.-Profes-
sor Charles NJ. Strahan, of the state
university, can serve as highway COM
missioner of Georgia, his office not
being technically state office, but
Samuel Y. Austin, of Lagrange, who
is on the governors staff, will have
to resign before he can qualify, ac-
cording to the opinion given Govern
or Dorsey yesterday by Attorney
General Clifford Walker.
The Governor is very anxious for
the Southwest Georgia attorney to
be member of the first commission
and will probably ask him to resign
from the staff so that he can accept
the higher position.
Professor Strahan is the author of
the Georgia road law, which has been
declared by Federal experts to be the
best in the union.
