HURT IN STEEpLE CHASE
Nov Wilson Is Seeking $4,000 Damages
From The Manager Of Crescent Park.

steepiechasers receive many falls and
hard knocks and take them as matter
OF course, but when the horses are OF
wood and are operated by a chain and a
price In charged for the experience then
an injury IL a different thing.
William Wilson thinks so, at any rate,
and he has brought suit In the common
pleas division of the supreme court
against Fred W. Dexter OF this city for
5000 damages
IL appears that Mr.. Wilson was riding
on the wooden steeds OF the "steeple
chase" at Crescent Park OF which the de-
PENDANT was lessee. last September. The
chain which helped the horse on which
the plaintiff was riding caught his leg
and injured him considerably, he says,
and he was unable TO do his work for a
long time. and had to hire others TO do
n. thereby causing him great expense In
addition to the pain he had TO endure.
He says the defendant was negligent
in leaving the chain unguarded.
His attorney is Henry T.. Thompson.

MILKMAN ON TRIAL.
Kent Is Charged with Dispensing Liquid
That Was Adulerated.

The trial of the case against Alfred
u Kent. the milkman who was charged
with having milk on his wagon Of which
too large per cent. was water was con-
tinued today before Judge Wilbur and
Jury In the common pleas division OF
the supreme court.
The case was heard originally in the
district court. Frank A. Matthews ap-
pearing as complainant for the state and
the defendant was found guilty and ap-
pealed.
The state experts on milk testified yes
terday that the samples taken from
Kent's cans showed a proportion of only
10 70-I00 solids, which indicated that the
milk was watered.
The defense was TO the effect that there
had no water been put In the milk and
that II was just as pure as when taken
from the cow.
A son of Alfred Kent, who said he
milked and saw the cans all the time
they were being filled. said that no water
was put into the milk cans before they
left the barn.
He was followed by ex-Inspector OF Mix
Perkins OF Providence, who although he
was an expert chemist for the defense.
told some interesting facts about cows and
milk In general. He said that because this
milk showed 1910 or .7s per cent. Of solids
did not show that II was necessarily
watered. as he had tested milk from the
COW direct and found even lower ratio
Of solid matter than that He had rec
ords where 1t was only 1920 and 1890
per cent. solid and he said It might get
as low az per cent. IL the people did
not wake up.
The cows might be made to give low
grade milk In large quantities as the
result OF systematsc feeding and OF GER
tain food stun, ne said and he further
admitted that milk could be watered ir
the COW. when cross examined by com
plainant's counsel.

a few just outside official circles, includ-
ing ladies'. the entire party numbering
about so. the number having been sweiled
beyond the number intended by the pres
ence OF the school ships Essex ana Mon

The strictest attention was paid to the
delivery of the able address by the ven
erable admiral because OF the fatherly
interest which he has displayed in the
institution ever since its birth, and hence
he is looked upon as an authority upon
the affairs of the college by all naval
officers.
After the lecture an informal reception
was held following which Captain French
r. Chadwick, president OF the college,
and Mrs. Chadwick entertained the party
at luncheon in their quarters. The class
at present numbers a dozen officers, the
majority of whom are captains and COM
manders.
More officers are expected to join the
class later. This year there will be no
public announcement OF the work of the
