Ing near that point
Mr.. Derby was thrown bodily from

ran short distance into neighboring
garden, then stopped.
DIR. Nichols stopped his car. and
with the assistance of others, loaded
Mr.. Derby in and took him to his
home. Today Mr.. Derby is suffering
greatly from very severe injuries and
bruises across the back and the abb
domen. Altho there are no marks, his
suffering is intense. There is a posi-
bility of internal injuries, but it will
require longer time to determine
whether they exist or not, but the at
tending physician does not expect that
the injuries will prove serious. Mr..
Derby is suffering acutely from nerv-
Gus shock.

TO HOLD RACE MEETS
Matinee Association to Be Formed at
Meeting of Horsemen to Be Held
Tuesday Evening-Plans Bi-Weekly
Meetings Thruout Summer.

If plans materialize there will be or
ganized at a meeting of horsemen, held
at c. o. Lawrences office Tuesday
evening, local racing matinee asso-
citation, which will promote bi-weekly
meetings thruout the present season.
George w. Darling, who is at the
head of the speed department of the
county fair association is promoting
the matinee meetings, and already
twenty signers have been secured for
stock. 1t is likely that between forty
and fifty men interested in racing will
be supporters of the association. 1t is
not unlikely that later in the season
some running races will be put into
the programs, but the principal objec,
will be to stimulate an interest in the
harness events, both for trotting and
pacing.

Wonderful Memory OF An Elephant

ing story concerning the intelligence
and gratitude of an elephant. says the
Minneapolis Tribune.
Some years ago, he said. | was sum
moncd by the proprietor of Il famous
shew to come to his stables to attend q
female elephant. The great creature
had stepped on nail or piece of metal,
which had penetrated her foot. She
was in great agony, and long before l
reached the elephant stables l could
hear her trunpeting with pain. On
entering found her standing on three
legs, swinging the sore foot slowly
backward an forward. / felt rather
nervous as | approached the beast, but
the keeper told me to have no fear.
The elephant. he explained, WAS II very
Intelligent creature.
AS I bent down to examine the
wounded foot I felt light touch on
my head. Turning l saw the great
trunk behind me, and it suggested dam
gcrouS consequences. II shall have to
cut deep | said to the keeper, who
thereupon SIP Ike to the elephant in
some tongue unknown to me. Then he
shouted. "Cut away"
made one cash with the knife and
felt the trunk tighten on my hair in
Il way that made my blood run cold
However, | screwed up my courage
and again applied the knife In IL
short time ] had lanced the abscess,
sprayed the foot and bound it up.
Evidently the elephant felt Immediate
ly relieved, fpr it released its grasp on
my hair and drew long breath.
Several months later / happened to
he in the neighborhOOd of the show
and sought oIt the keeper to inquire
after my former patient.
She was well and hearty, he told me,
and invited m" to come and see her.
On approaching the elephant she
looked at me first with Indifference.
then steadily and with interest. Then
she stretched ont her trunk and laid it
caressingly ON my head. Finally
