Policy" who WAS second. The ~
gelding Dunstrom. wearing blindsn
because Of his well known falling
brought up the rear. Those who knew
him best thought he had finished a
least one race without boiling the TRACK
but lust as he passed the grand stand,
he made leap to clear the low fence On
the inside of the track, and breaking
one OF the sections. he actually impaled
himself on one OF the boards and fell to
the ground, throwing his rider over and
over in the dust, The sight was hor-
rible one and it took but a glance TO
show that the horse had run his last
race; some one approached and kindly
ended his career By shooting him in the
head with a pistol. The jockey was
picked up somewhat bruised, but not
seriously injured.
