1T ENDED WELL-There was a /
fortunate ending yesterday of a run
away in which Mrs. f. A. Hough was I
the principal figure. Mrs. Hough and /
her husband We're preparing to take a /
ride. They had hitched their horse /
and buggy near the store of Mr.. Hough |
at Second avenue and Washington /
street. Mrs HOugh entered the buggy |
while Mr.. HOugh went back toward /
the store. The horse slipped the 4
bride over mis- head and started I'M /
hampered across a vacant lot. Those |
who were looking on expected to see (
Mrs. Hough badly hurt but when the 4
horse had nearly crossed the block I
something about the harness gave way
and the shafts fell and plowed their
way until the buggy came to a stand
still. The only harm done was to the l
harness.
FINE HORSE PLAY-Audubon Boy, II
the famous PAGER, was put through a .
good workout yesterday at the fair /
grounds. No effort was made to do l
the fastest work but just to warm him |
up and see how Arizona soil felt under
his nimbIe hoofs. 1t was desirable to II
ascertain whether there was any dan II
ger of setting the track on fire when he II
got ready to do his real performing. II
After he had been warmed up for an II
hour or so Mr. Gatcomb thought he II
would sprint the horse a little, so he II
put him round the track in 2:O51a. II
which equaled the record made here II
by Hazel Patch, and tied the Arizona II
track record. Not a bad showing for II
an initial tryout on a quiet Sunday. II
There was another feature of the per
iormance that attracted even more at
-entioR among a number of the local
lOrsemen, for Audubon Boys work
was rather expected while this was
not. Reference is made to the stunt
IF Star Pointer, the horse recently sold
oy w f. Holder to w. d. Hammond,
both residents of this city. Star Point
er was pressed into service as pace
maker for Audubon Boy. They left
he wire together and after turning
the first curve in the track Star Point
Pr was brought back and hurried UP to
The head of the stretch to meet Au-
1ubon Boy as he came down for the
inish. Star Pointer was feeling his 7
bats and seemed to recognize the fast
company he was keeping so he put on
4 full head of steam and brought the
-st-,
CANT style. The glory that fell to Star
lot was that of making the
asst eighth in 14A, or at the rate of
L:54. a squirt that was faster than the
average speed of Audubon Boy or any
Dther race horse. As Star Pointer is
Just coming into maturity he is likely
yet to make a great name for himself.
