 TURNS TURTLE
Officer McGrath Is Pinned Underneath and Officer Nalenzuela Has Close Call-Train Hits Sheep Herder.

Answering a call to the Santa Fe
 herder injured by a passenger train at Congress Junction, shortly before midnight, Officers John J. McGrath and Alejo Nalenzuela had narrow
 escape from serious injury if not death, when the horse attached to the patron wagon became unmanagea ble and overturned the heavy vehicle
 McGrath. who was riding in the
 wagon. was pinned underneath while
 Nalenzuela was thrown from the driv- CTS seat to the ground
 With the oVerturning of the heavy
 wagon the big sorrel horse attempted
 to run away, but was unable to free
 himself, and NalenZuela managed to
 get at his head and call for assist ance. Policeman Wilkerson. who was at the depot, hurried to the assistance
 of his fellow officers and assisted in
 fighting the wagon and freeing Me
 Grath.
 With one of the shafts broken off
 short and prodding the horse in the
 side the animal became more frantic after the wagon was right side up
 and despite the efforts of the two
 officers to restrain him. broke away and dashed along North Central ave- nue from the Santa IFe depot He was stopped near the fire engine house while he was evidently making his way to his stable at the city hall When McGroth managed to get to his feet he found that besides hav- ing his uniform practically torn from his body he had sustained . more or less painful injury to his back He did not report off duty last evening but early this morning it was believed that there was possibility of in ternal injuries having been sustained. and il is possible he may be obliged i to lay off for T time.
 1 The big horse was badly cut about l the feet and legs and the patrol wagon was completely put out of ! business. Jones, for whom the wagon | had been sent, was taken to the police ! station in an automobile pressed into l service as an ambulance

WHY FLOWERS CHANGE coLoRl

The causes of color changes in haDiN they are due to chemical pro- cesSes in the cells. which are stimu- lated into activity by the p0llina- ton of the flower. This appears to he the more probable since different chemicals in the soil are regarded as the cause of color changes in other Flowers. In New England the meadow lilly is yellow. in the middle states red kerner has noted several species in the Alps that change color white flowers in one soil produced blue ones in another A violet was blue in one locality and yellow in another. A vetch found in the Tyrol in Hungary was violet In the central AlIS the alpine amemOne is sulphur yellow. in the Eastern Alps it is white. A botanist who recently ex- pefimented with the color changes in flowers was able to turn yellow, blue, pink and red flowers to green ny adding alkali, and to turn them back to their original co or when acids were added From his expert mentS he concludes that flowers have bue-and that from these. by various combinations. all the others are pro- duced Suburban Life

Aid the Park.

Solomon Tribune: The Ladies
Relief Corps OF Solomon is going
to erect band stand in the city
park. That is IL the citizens Of the
town will lend their assistance in
the matter. And this move on the
part Of the ladies Is certainly very
commendable and will meet with
the hearty approval Of all. They
expect to raise the money by giving
ice cream socials and different en-
tertaiuments. Three of the ladies
were in our office Friday and said
they would give the first social
shortly after the dismissal Of school.
They are very enthusiastic regarding
our little park and are real anxious
to see it made a real beauty spot. A
new band stand will add greatly to
the looks Of the place. The old
thing which has been serving the
purpose for many years has become
an eye sore and is disgrace to the
town.
