ar, uad Il G spo, where the Mis- ouri CIR
lay bleeding and insensibIe on The track
She was picked up by her faith. and car.
ried to the side of the track, when water
was dashed into her face until he had re-
gained con ciousness. Medical help was
called and il was soon learned that no
bones were broken and with the assistance
of Mansger Stevens aud another gentleman
she walked of of the track to the park
hotel. Her injuries consisted Of
severe Brui,es on the head, right shoulder
and hip; not serious, but enough TO prevent
her from finishing the race
The accident was caused by the extreme
nervousness and excited condition IF the
men who assisted her in changing horses.
The money at stake was quite sum, and
they were anxious for her TO win aud de-
sired 10 take advantage of everything that
would assist her in the least; consequently,
she was seized the instant she alighIed from
her hC Use and thrown into the saddle o! the
fresh one and the animal given q boost,
which sent il off at a full run from the
start. This time she missed her
hold on the rein and had some
difficulty In getting seated in the
saddle. Her assistants did not notice that
fact and some of them struck the horse a
blow on the rump which caused it to
spring forward and she was iumbled to the
ground. Her head struck first and she
was rescued barely in time to prevent the
horse from stepping upon her breast, Ii
was SO close that twO-thirIs of those who
witnessed the accident bought that it had
and one lady standing inside of the ring
tainted while several others uttered cries
of horror as they covered their faces and
tur"ei away. The little Missouri woman
had the sympathy of the crowd and her
attendants were almosl overwhelmed with
inquiries about her condition until
late hour last night when il
was definitely announced that her
injuries wer- not serious.
Miss Williams continued the race only
| stopping to learn that her rival had not
been fatally tr dangerously injured, and
completed her Goth mile in "A minutes
and seconds. When she dis ounted at
the Judges stand her face was covered
with dust and she could not walk without
the assistance Of two supporters. She Was
apparently nearly exhausted, but sand she
did not feel a. tired as she did at the end
OF the 10th mile. She repaired 10 her
rooms at the hotel and was bathed and
rubbed by her two lady attendants and an
hour later reappeared smiling and as fresh
in feeling aud spirits "a she was before the
race. She expressed great sympathy for
the misfortune of her rival.
Miss White had staked so much upon
her success that she feels keenly the I'M
/ fortunate ending, bat her hackers as we'll
as the public including those who had
staked their money upon her concede that
it was not her fault and stand ready to
back her for a second race when she has
recovered FROM the effects of her fall.
The Kans.s men who came here to gam
bic on the race had rich harvest and
some of them left to-day with well filled
pockets.
