The Sunday Bulletin has q picture OF
Mrs. W. y. BagWell Of this city as a
woman jockey. 1t says:
Her experience a. a iOrkev has not
been very extensive as yet, She having
ridden in five races only; but in proper
ton to her attempts Mrs. BagWelI's sue
cess has been remarkable. OF the five
races in which Mrs. Bagwell has ridden
twice has her horse come in a winner
and never has she ridden "outside'' the
money.
Mrs. Bagwell's first attempt against the
boys was at Carson City about one year
ago. Then she rode third to Coates
sometimes known as "Pizen", and Father
gill. She was greatly elated with the
result, even though she did not win, and
determined to continue her efforts until
she might take rank with the t~op-notch-
ers in the business.
Mrs. Bagwell is - years of age and has
been married for five years. She is of
medium stature, petite in figure, but well
proportional and weighs 10l pounds
She is very modest, demure and mas
Stunning. When on the street she dresses
in plain black and from her appearance
none would imagine that she ever as
summed the part of a jockey.
Mrs. Bagwell, TO quote her language,
lust loves horses and the acme of her
happiness is to be astride a good animal
making a hard stride down the stretch.
She had an ambition to assist her hus-
band. and being a good rider, decided
that she could be more successful rs a
jockey than anything else. In the saddle
when ready for a race she wears bifur-
Gated skirts, not so wide or loose as to
catch too much wind and thereby impede
the progress of the horse, but fitting
neatly. She rides astride and we'll for
ward over her horses f~oreshoulders and
with whip, spurs and steady hand pilots
her mount like a veteran.
The Examiner also contain $ her pie
lures.
