Sylvester Plant Injured
Sylvester Plant is lying at the hos

evening near the Lindel hotel. The
exact circumstances are not yet known
in connection with the affair, but as
near as we can learn they are as
follows. Plant was hauling sugar
beets for Mrs. Heffelfinger, who lives
on the Ernst farm north of town,
loading them into a car sidetracked
north of the Lindel hotel. It is not
known now when the accident occured
but about seven o'colck, train men
heard the groans of a man and report
ed to workmen at the depot, who soon
found and carried him to the office of
Martyn Evans, Evans & Martyn. Htf
was found to have the left leg broken
between the ankle and knee and also
to have scalp wounds.
All indications show that the team
ran away, but the cause of their get
ting from under his control is not yet
known. The horses were caaghtat
least a half hour before Mr. Plant was
found, so that it is possible he was
lying unconscious all that time.
Mrs. Heffelfiager, to whom the
horses belong, says they were never
known to run away before, or to be
afraid of trains.
Mr. Plant is thirty eight years old
and has a wife now in silver Creek,
who has been informed of her has
band's condition. He is a brother of
Mrs. Ohas. Whaley of this city. This

Farewell Reception
The people of the Congregational
church gave a farewell reception,
hut night at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
R. E. Eaton, in honor of Dr. and Mrs.
F. H. Geer, who will leave tomorrow
for their future home in California.
The original plan was to make the
reception a surprise, but it became
necesrary to announce it in order to
keep Dr. Geer in the city.
If Dr. and Mrs. Geer ever enter
tained any doubts as to the great big
place tney occupy iav, the hearts of
their Columbus friends, those doubts
must have taken wings last night be
fore the sincere and hearty expressions
of respect and lot e that went out to
them from the hearts of these present
The reception was entirely informal,
the guests mingling freely in the three
spacious rooms, brilliantly illuminattd
by candles. Mrs. J. G. Reeder axd
daughter Marion, the Misses Florence
Whitmoyer, Ethel Galley, innie
Cramer, and Dora Babcock delighted
the guests with a short musical pro
gram, consisting of both vocal and
piano Z numbers. J,There mnsicians,
inspired by the occasion, never ac
quitted themselves more creditablv.
Then Rev. G. A. Munro of the Con
gregational church took the floor and
after announcing that he had never
been able to have a real satisfying
talk with Dr. Geer and that for once
he would get satisfaction, presented
Dr. and Mrs. Geer with a beautiful
cnt glas vase, the gift of the mem
bers of the Congregational church.
Kev. Monro's presentation address
was a masterpiece and will be long
remembered by those who heard it.
He referred to Dr. Goer's fondness
for children nd for the childorn's
fondness for Dr. Geer and spoke of
two 6mall heel prints in the ceiling
of his own home, that mark a romp
between his boy and Di. Geer. He
lauded the virtues of the man who
has sacrificed not onlv health to at
tend to his suffering fellow man, but
who has often taken money from his
own pocket that those under his care
might have the advantages of special
treatment and he referred with feel
ing to the great debt of personal obli
agtion which he owed Dr. Geer.
His remarks were not confined how
ever to Dr. Geer. His greatest praise
was withheld for Mrs. Geer who has
boon a leader in social, literary '.and
musical cicles, and who has been not
only an active worker in tho church,
but who has been ever watchful for
the needs of others in the community,
ministering quietly and generously to
their wants.
Dr. and Mrs. Geer made brief and
fitting responses, expressing their
deep regret to leave their Columbus
friends to whom they had become bo
closely bound.
A delicious luncheon in two courses
was served by the ladies, af terwhich
the guests departed at a late hour,
bidding God speed to Dr. and rs.
Geer on their journey to their Cali
fornia home.
