 Mrs. James M. Smith of Chicago, a guest of the Hotel Adams, was thrown from a horse yesterday morning and was severely injured. She was riding on West Washington street with her husband.

Mrs. Smith fell off in front of the gas works and was picked up and carried back to the hotel on a stretcher. She was severely confused, but was not internally injured and was resting easily yesterday evening" f'he incident showed the need of something else in Phoenix which no one had thought of before, a means of caring for those who are injured on the street. There seemed to be no way of carrying Mrs. Smith back to the hotel, for she could not be brought back in carriage. At length some one thought of the hospital corps, N. G. A., and Frank T. Alkire, O. A. Tur- ney and c. H. Pierce of the corps were enlisted into the service.
