JOCKEY KINNIE Is THROWN FROM
HIS MOUNT AND SERIOUSLY
INJURED.
SLIGHT CHANCE OF RECOVERY
FERRIER AND HY DY WERE THE
ONLY FAvoRITES THAT Met
WITH SUCCESS.

first race, that will probably result in the
death of Jockey Kinnie, who had the
mount on Ladameo, an outsider in the
betting. So much consideration was felt
for the lad that, on inquiring of one track
official as to the boys condition at the
conclusion of the last run, he replied that
he didn't know how he was. But this is
! in keeping with the policy of the present
meeting; as long as the dollars come in at
/ the gate let the mill grind.
| The race was a fve-furlong affair for
maidens, Kingsley being to 5 favorite.
Mt. Carlos-ridden by Fred Garlic, who
was once ruled off the turf for one of the
most barefaced jobs ever perpetrated on
racetrack, the pulling of Al Farrow-was
played as the good thing in the race.
Previous to the race GARLIC was report
inebriates, and 1 for one fully concur in
tn is rumor, for his actions after dis
mounting substantiated it. At any rate,
while the horses were fairly well punched
an eighth from the wire Mount Carlos
swerved in as well as could be seen from a
| press-stand that might as well be in the
| basement for all the view of race that it
| commands, humping Ladameo, throwing

was thrown, striking heavily on his head,
causing conclusion of the brain. Willing
hands carried him to the Jockeys room,
and up to the time of leaving the track
after the last race the boy had not recov-
cred consciousness, and by the way the
attending physician spoke life was to 10
chance.
Robert Kinnie, which was the boys
proper name, was in the employ of Mike
| Kelly, and while he never gave promise of
! becoming Griffin or Taral was con-
scientious and honest little fellow, who did
| the best he. could
Of the dogs" that started in the race the
Julia Martin filly proved the best, with
Resale second and Kingsley third.
Riley Grammar was up on the block
again yesterday, and thought by the way
matters began the young plunger was

ground the two preceding days. but the
Quirt in the six-furlong handicap, playing
her on the outside and boosting" the
prices against the others. Well, Wheelock
and the New Workers took a fall out of him,
playing Terrier at 212 to 1. Pittsburg Phil,
however, played BelIicoso Kinnie was to
have ridden ACKNOWLEDGMENT, but after the
accident Sloane was put up and rode over
weight Captain Coster. who | think has
suddenly been rated too high, was heavily
played at to /. 1t was simply no race at
all, for Terrier took the lead after passing
the half, and won eased up by three lengths
Bellicoso was second, about the same dis
| lance in front of Captain Coster. If a race
were made for horses on stills Quirt might
| possibly have a chance, for on the pre- sent
track in the shape she's in now, she
couldn't beat her owner and he doesn't
appear to be threatened with speed.
If old Hy by didn't look like the money
yesterday never saw him when he did.
The old brown gelding certainly looked
eligible for the twb-year-old race. And he
went out and got it with ease, starting
equal favorite with Commission, who
looks drawn too fine. Riley Grammar
near the money. Hy by won with ease,
Griffin contenting himself with beating
Commission a long neck. Miss Buckley
was poor third.
L would not like to say that Mr.. Joseph,
the owner of imp. Grand Lady and the
two-year-old Marionette, did not always
try to win; rather put it that they ran in
consistently. Thursday Marionette got
away second fell back to fifth place, and
staid there, with Lloyd up, in race
won in 1917 seconds. Yesterday, with
Chorn up, she opened up gap soon after

been to the theater and jollied himself into
thinking Red Pike would win. He did
fairly well-fnished third. The second
horse, Midlo, is fine-looking gelding by
| imp. Midlothian, and ran an excellent
race at his first attempt. Leon l., the
| favorite In the race, which was half-mle
dash, ran poorly, and owner Legg would
do well to give him rest 1t looks to me
like another case of the phenomenal Cap
tain COster-too many fast workouts as a
yearling.
Grammar evened up what he had lost on
| the preceding races by backing Marionette
all around the ring; to 1 was at one time
obtainable against her.
After the last race L noticed the people
that hail from the Windy City, Chicago,
Were greatly in need of that Indispensable
article that gave the Illinois metropolis its
nom de plume. The old roam Splinter was
in at his favorite distance, and when Gran
nan marked to against him l thought
Bookmaker Walter was going to have fit.
| He bet Grammar $500 at the price and
| damned his hands down into his pockets
up to his elbows with q smile that gave
/ q doubt to the young plunger's mental
capacity. Walter is a pretty good Judge
as a rule and Grammar rubbed to SIS to $50
Along came Abe Levy, with some fresh
chalk on his cue, and slung thousand
dollar bet at Grammar; he took it and
didn't rub. Johnny Humphrey, whom
consider one of the shrewdest men in the
ring, had his horse, Joe Cotton, in the
race and bet some good money on him at
| 10 and 15 to l. Grammar had % to against
Major Cook, put Billy Beverly betting him
$500, he cut the price. Venus wass second
choice, but ran poorly.
Major Cook and Tim Murphy raced out
in front at a heart breaking pace, as pre-
dicted to friend, and an eighth from the
| wire Joe Cotton came on and won handily
| by half a length from the Major Tim
was only a fair third. The roam Splinter
! is way off edge, and White and Clarke
would do well to let up on him, even if the
grass is short. MULHoLLAND.
