ing Matters.


The sensation at the race track yes
terday afternoon. was furnished after
this report closed. 1t occurred in the
last race. hurdle handicap at a mile and
an eighth. Two horses. Delgado and
God Dust, fell at the last jump and the
latter was so seriously injured that it
was found necessary to shoot the ami
NAL. Jockey Morrison. who had the
mount on Delgado was seriously in
jured and is now at the Sisters hospital.
At a late hour he was resting quietly
though it is feared he sustained internal
injuries.
The falling of the horses appears to
have been due to recklessness on the
part of the jockeys. Sam Green. with
Stuart up and Delgado, took the last
sump together and the latter being
bumped fell in a heap and rolled on
Morrison. The jockey was lying pros
trate and unconscious when Gold Dust
stumbled over the jump and fell, break
ing his hip. Mccarthy. who had the
mount on the last named horse, escaped
unhurt.
A cry of horror went up from the
grand stand at the first fall. It was
thought Morrison had been killed. He
was at once removed from the track
vive him. he failed to regain conscious
ness until some time after his arrival
at the hospital. ell then complained of
external pains and was given opiates to
relieve his suffering. He shows no out
ward signs of serious injury and unless
alarming symptoms develop he will re-
cover. 1t is feared though as was
stated. that he may be internally in
juree.
After Morrison had been removed from
the track, an examination was made of
Gold Dust, with the result that he was
shot

Dark Eorse Is Hopper.

The speedy Chicago amateur who ar
rived in Butte last night. and about the
identity of whom there appeared to be
much mystery, is none other than N.
C. Hopper, who has won laurels as q
sprinter and road racer Thatcwas de-
veloped today, when the new conner sign
ed his entry blanks for the races at the
saucer tomorrow night. Hopper has the
reputation of being a speedy man and
as he claims to be in good condition hi
should be able to make Hoffman hustle
for first money. He will at least make
some of the other amateurs get up and
hump themselves.
Another new conner at the saucer Is
L. Niederhofer, professional from Min
neapolis. He is entered for the races
tomorrow night. and as he Is reputed
to be very speedy the professionals may
have to look to their laurels.

would be a great drawing card here and
it is possible that he will accept the
