SERIOUSLY HURT

Mrs. G. E. Mitchell OF this city, who
is visiting her sister in Salt Lake City,
Mrs. Frank Parker was severely injured
Tuesday while out driving, from their
horse being scared by an automobile,
carriage causing it to run away.
The following from the Tribune OF
yesterday tells of the extent Of the in
juries.
Mr.. Mitchell is now with his wife,
having left here the evening of the day
she was hurt.
"Mrs. Frank Parker and her sister,
Mrs. Charles Mitchell OF Grand juno
ton were resting quietly yesterday. after
their serious runaway mishap OF the
previous afternoon. Both ladies are
likely to be great sufferers for come
months to come. Mrs. Parker has many
discolored bruises. Both arms are par
TALLY paralized, one little finger is mash
ed, her upper lip is torn loose from the
jaw, one knee cap is dislocated, while
her nervous system is badly racked.
Mrs. Nitchell's right foot was turned
over. tearing the tendons loose, and she
was very roughly shaken up. She is an
invalid, and the shock is thereby the
moro severely felt. 1t is thought that
it will be at least three months before
Mre. Mitchell can walk again.
Mrs. Mitchell, who remained consci-
GUS. says the horseless carriage stopped
and one of the occupants jumping out,
ran up to her and. catching her by the
shoulder. gruffiy exclaimed, II am
physician; you are not hurt. get up and
walk" Mrs. Mitchell says it was all she
could do to refrain, crippled as she was,
from striking the man in the face.

CAPTAIN TAUSSIG'S 5 TREES
THE BENNINGTON COMMANDER
HELPS GUAM.
Fulills the Advice of Making Two
Blades of Grass Grow Where but One
Grew Before.

When the Bennington left here for
Guam it was Commander Taussig's eX-
pectation that he would remain there
for several months. His orders from
the navy department made him praC-
tically governor of the island and the
duties assigned him, though perhaps
not very important from a naval point
of view were important in a scientific
aspect, or at least gave opportunity
for a man of scientific tastes and at
tainments to do much.
Commander Taussig entered upon
the duties assigned him with enthusi-
asm. One of his first ideas was to take
the seeds of useful trees and plants
from here to plant there, as a means
of increasing the natural resources of
the island. He interested Major H. A.
Bartlett in the matter of procuring the
necessary seed. But as the matter
was further considered it was sug-
gested by Major Bartlett that instead
of seed, young trees should be taken.
This was adopted. Commissioner Clark
cO-operated in the plan and the gov
ernment furnished the material. Ma
jor Bartlett procured a number of box
es of suitable size and in these the lit
tie trees ranging from six inches to a
foot in height were planted. The selec-
ton embraced the following varieties:
Mangoes, date palms, monkey pods,
laDldTlnuS, silver OAKS, GOnClanna he
gia or Flame trees and algarobas. In
all, about 1,60O young trees We're TAX
en- along.
1t was the intention of Commander
Taussg to plant some of these trees
on Wake Island if opportunity offer
ed. But in his letter to Major Bartlett
| he says: Beyond scattering a few Al
garoba seeds around Wake Island, my
! time was too much taken up during
{ our brief stay there on the 18th of Jan
uary, when ! took possession of the
! island, to do more as an agricultural
| ist."
| No doubt the planting of the trees
taken was one of the first things at
| tended to after reaching Guam and
! transacting the necessary preliminary
! formalities of taking possession Sc
! that though called away so much
! sooner that he expected to be, Com
mander Taussg has doubtless that tc
| his credit which a distinguished polit
| ical economist has declared to be the
| most useful achievement possible fol

OCEAN LINER FOR $500
STEAMSHIP COLUMBIA SELLS FOR
THAT FIGURE.
Harry Evans the Purchaser-Sailors
of the Ship Lose Their Hard Earned
Wages.

The steamship City of Columbia sold
at public auction today at noon for the
sum of 81, 500 cash.
This seems remarkable. No one eX-
pected the vessel would go so low. But
in the big crowd that attended the auc-
tion there were but two bidders and
three bids.
Captain Harry Evans, of the water
front police bought the greyhound,
Just what he will do with her he him
self does not know. He bid for luck,
to make the other fellows come up, as
it were, and got the ship.
Auctioneer Morgan sold the vessel.
After a wait of five minutes Evans Of
fered $500. Someone over in the crowd
shouted $1,000, and Evans raised it TO
$1,000. There was a long wait and Mr..
Morgan did lots of talking, but the
price was not advanced. At last the
Seattle-H Hilo pioneer liner was knock
ed down.
The price paid is simply out of rea-
son. 1t was stated by shipping men
present that Evans will get his mon
ey back out of material on the decks
of the vessel. To tear her up he will
clear $4,000 or $4,000.
Just before the Columbia started in
the Hilo trade $4,000 was spent in inn
| proVements on her. She is finely fit
! ted up. 1t is estimated that she would
| coast line.
The bills against the Columbia will
foot up something like $4,000. OF this
amount nearly 5000 is due the police
! department, which, of course, must
| come out of the sale money. Attorneys
| fees are something like $1,000 more. II
| is clear that the sailors who have
| claims for wages in various amounts
| will get nothing. Only few of them
| remain in the country
This is next to the cheapest sale of a
steamship ever heard of in this coun-
| try. Once the big China brought five
| shillings. That fact should at least be
a comfort to those holding claims
! against the Columbia.
Late this afternoon Harry Evans
stated that he had been offered $4,000
/ for the Columbia. This, he said, he
would not accept and if he could not
get a considerable advance on the fig
ure he would break up the vessel.
