The time to set out shade trees or in fact any trees now. Don’ wait until next spring. The trees will do much better if planted in the fall and the tree commission is ready to do the work. The commis- sion will not only aid citizens with ex- pert advice, but will plant the trees, provide them with a proper guard and guarantee that they will live. The cost is $1.50 per tree and this figure includes all the work of plant- ing, lacing the guards and seeing that the youngster gets a proper start in life. Should the tree not prosper the commission will replace it at no cost to you., Application blanks may be obtained from members of the com- mission at the City hall. Water com- missioner W, B. Rossberg, who is an active member of the tree commission dezply interested in the work, of blanks at the water E s" ofiice. Last night the tree commission met at City Hall and received reports of the work done thus far. The commis- sion has sold 50 trees. Maple trees are chiefly in demand, but others are obtainable. Sycamores and western catappas are alco recommended. The question of locating shade trees has been given much consideraticn by the commission. Although the general custom has been to set them in the plots between sidewalk and curb, it is considered a good plan to place them inside the property line. There they will not only give ampie shade, but will be less liable to injury from street wires and will not interfere with the lights. Next week the commission plans to make a tour of the city to learn where shade trees are needed. Own- ers of building lots and those who have just erected homes and plan to beautify them by planting shade trees should get in touch with the tree com- mission. The city is not in the bus- is ‘iness for purposes of profit and the money simply goes to meet the ex- pense of buying and planting.

CHAMBER WARNE ANENT COPPERSMITHS St. Paul Commerce Organization Tells of Work of Traveling Artisans, The local Chamber of Commerce has received within the past few days a letter of warning from St. Paul, Minn., Chamber of Commerce regarding the activities and business methods employed by traveling coppersmiths named Curion, in which it encourages the local chamber to inform its members to be aware if these fellows approach them in the quest of work. The missive however, states speci- fically that it does not allege fraud or. part of the men, it being their methods of doing business which it takes notice of and warns against. The fellows are sald to be clever workmen. They usually approach cwners of hotels and merchants who own copperware and ask to be given the job of placing it in first class shape. ren a plece of the ware, they do the work at a moderate rate, and the job as a rule is alright. Later they approach the same parties and ask for more work. Given it they exhibit a contract which states that for all new copper used a charge of $1.50 a pound will be asked and when the bill 1s received the amount usually is of an enormous size. The fellows at the beginning plead ignor- ance, but when it comes to the time for the payment of their demanded mount they tenaciously exhibit the contract and the merchant has no other alternative than to pay. The Christmas tree committee of the Chamber held its first meeting .f the year yesterday afternoon and or- ganized by George H. Dyson as chair- man. The committee will meet next Friday and definite plans for the affair will be made.

Test borings in connection with the proposed tunnel in Burlington to con- nect the upper and lower watersheds, which are being made by engineers in the employ of the water department, are showing desired results. It will take from two to three weeks to com- plete the work when the water com- missioners will learn definitely wheth- er the tunnel idea is feasible. It is | believed that the tunnel will effect a saving of at least $70,000, as it will be a substitute for five or six miles of | pipe line through rought country. The tunnel would be less than a mile In length, but its construction will be im- practible if the underlying structure proves sandy or of soft material. | | | | | | NATIONAL APPEAL TO WILSON, Chicago, Oct. 30.—Plans of the National Peace Federation, announceq today, call for a national appeal to President Wilson on November 8 by night telegraph letters to co-operate with other neutral nations, the con ference to constitute a voluntary court of continuous mediation, invite sug- gestiong for settlement from warring rations, and in any case submit simul- past vears took an active in- | : TAX AN IMPOSITION. | Mayor Angry to Learn of Unexpected Assessment. With a state tax of $69,073.71 facing it, a boost of $20,000 over the esti- mate made by the board of finance and taxation, the city has a problem facing it to meet the extra demand | Mayor George A. Quigley was free to 'say that he comsidered the extra half mil] foisted on the city an imposition and was not a littld indignant when he learned the unpleasant news, but that doesn’t offer or provide a cure for the trouble, The tax is payable November 10 and an extra penalty o™ nine per cent. is provided by law for nonpayment. The mayor is to consult with City Treasurer F. 8. Chamberlain as to the best method of financing the matter as there is no provision for the extra $20,000. This tax, which amounts to a mil] and a half, is only part of the extra burden to be bourne by the taxr* payers, as there is a quarter mill county tax and an extra mill, which was voted to provide for the problem of the unemployed, making a grand total of two and three-quarters mills, which, under ordinary circumstances would not have been levied. Mayor Quigley figures that without these im- pests the city would bave been well conducted on fifteen mills and the tax® payers would have gotten thelr money’s worth. WILL ATTEND CONSECRATION, | Rev. Harry I, Bodley, rector of St Mark's Episcopal church, and his as« sistant, Rey. Carlos M. Jones, will at- tend the consecration of the Rev.

The conse- cration takes place at 10:30 o'clock. |At, 7:30 o'clock there will be a ser- vice of the holy communion in tha., | chapel of St. Luke's church for the » clergy and students and at the same {hour at the Church of the Holy Trinity a similar service for church members and visiting communicants.
