FALL PERILs PRESIDENT.
Roosevelt Saved from Injury BY
Good Horsemanship.

President Roosevelt narrowly escaped
serious injury the other afternoon while
out horseback riding in Washington. Only
his craftsmanship saved him from being
badly crushed, if not killed, by his horse

rumors concerning the mishap, but the
President confirmed the reports in circu-

falling in a creek and little shaking up,
which caused no inconvenience, the Presi-
dent is none the worse for his experience.
Tie horse, new one, returned thoroughly
broken and the President entered the
White House in high fettle, thoroughly
enjoying the self-imposed task of training
the animal.
