determined to do something besides

She is now visiting Chicago. and will

Miss Milfred, after coming to Chic go
month ago. visited Washington Park
and watched the flyers for several sue

ventures, but discovered a new sphere
for women. The more she watched the
races the more firmly she became con-
vinced that she could learn to ride as
well as any one else. Once she had

made only $40 week. When she heard
that Jockeys often made 500 for win.

the washout the men were at
work. Sunday the men worked
all day; they didn't get the water
started; the eight men were in charge of
Henry Starkey. There were three siph-
ons working, and each one threw
three-inch stream. He was there until
about fifteen minutes before the fill
went out. The siphons were working
at the time. The fill was all sand and
gravel. The soil of the fill was mostly
sand and gravel, and not more than 5
per cent clay. The box drain had been
closed up since last fall. The block-up
was caused by DIRT, which had washed
down from Curtice street.
c. B. Stanley, street commissioner,
testified that citizens, police and street
commissioners usually reported when
lax drainage did not carry off the water.

the street frequently. The ground was
i'll good shape last summer. About
month ago he was first noti-

There was about an acre in the basin
made by the fill. Approximately, he
thought. there was an acre OF water.
The soil was mostly clay, but he thought
the fill was capable of holding the water.
The report about water being there
came through Mr.. Rundelett. He left a
note on Mr.. Shanley's desk about it.

saw ten or fifteen feet of water there,
He didn't go to the place again until
the day before the fill washed out. The
men were working, and they said the
water had been lowered about three
feet. a sluice box had been put in, but
he had no record of the work done after
the heavy rain of July 26.
