the Salt Lake rider who achieved a
national reputation on the big circuit,
would compete at the local races here
this summer. He says he will not quit
the l.. A. w. tracks unless the prizes
put up by the Salt Palace company are

A serious runaway accident occurred
yesterday afternoon whereby Mrs. John
Seaman and Mrs. William Maycock
both of Pleasant View, were injured.
The ladies were in their buggy on
Twenty-fifth street, near the corner of

avenue and Twenty fifth street the
wheels caught the projecting rails of
the street car track, and the vehicle
capsized. throwing both the ladies out.
Mrs. Seaman suffered a sprained wrist
and a severe bruise over the right eye
besides the general shock of a hard
fall. Mrs. Maycock received severe in

could not be determined at once.
Both the ladies were carried into the

block with the upturned tuggy, where
it was caught, the buggy being cOnsid-
erably damaged.

Students Game at Provo.

Provo, May 13.-The ball game played
here today between the B. Y. a. and
U. of U. teams was very poor The
boys played hard, but the fact remains
that they did not know how to play.
Poor plays abounded and good plays
were as scarce as white blackberries.
AT the end of the game the score stood
20 to 10 in favor of the B. Y. A. At
first it looked as if the U. of u would
win, but the B. Y a. ran ahead after
three innings and then first one and
then the other led till the conclusion of
the game.
