turned the sm.ky over and dragged his
driver Tor some distance. Mr.. Cutler was
thought, at first. to be killed. He recov-
red himself, however, sufficiently to be

The horse never stopped. but kept right
on, running around the track and defying
the whole association, until Mr.. G. L. Col
iins. the chief marshal, mounted his own
horse and overlook the flying stallion after
i rather iatiguing chase. Charlie caught
md mounted the unruly HsmbletOnian

needed.
