DRIVER STARR BADLY INJURED IN
21s PACE AT READvILLE.
He Was Unconscious for Twenty MINI
utes-W. III. Parks Refused $4,000
for Major Delmar.

READVILLE. Mass, Sept. 15.-The rae
ing in the second day OF the breeders
meeting at the Readville track was devoid
of special incident until the very last heat,
when unfortunate accident occurred TO
Driver George Starr The four horses I'm
the 2:1S pace were just rounding the first
turn when obtruding rail I'm the fence
caught the sulky from which Starr was
driving Double u. The sulky was capsized
and Starr was thrown heavily TO the
ground. He seemed unconscious for twenty
minutes, and although subsequent examina-
ton showed that no bones were broken, ii
Is possible that there may be internal
injuries.
1t was announced during the afternoon
that w. H. Parks, of Glens Falls, n. Y,
the owner OF Major Delmar, had refused an
offer from L. Z. Smathers OF $4,000 for the
gelding.
In the racing the talent had a couple of
upsets. Mckinley won the 2:l1 trot, after
dropping the first heat to Belle Kuser DIR.
Madara was a favorite in the go pace, but

ter Boralma, 2:07, won the race in straight
heats and reduced his record to 2072..
Lizzie A showed a lot of form in the three
year-old race and in the initial heat trotted
the middle half of the mile in 1:03A.
There was, usual a number of special
efforts by individual horses to better their
marks. Farris and Easter, trotting TO
