against X. o. Eggers at the Orpheum
Theater. Jimmy Perry has agreed 70
handle Grant for the most important

Perry originally intended leaving

a great booster for Jimmy, and will

for his bout with Donnelly, and Fer

Grants boxing ability The local lad
has been in need Of good sparrins

Tex Richard is much improved to-

HOUSTON. TEXAS, March 2e-
The widest, most daredevil.
foolhardy, foolish game in the
civilized world has almost cost an
llother life. Tex Richard went over the
grandstand" at the Houston motor
drome stadium. 1t happened much
the same as the accident happened to
Walter Furch, the first rider to take
such leap.
The only difference is that three
riders crashed together instead Of
two. And instead of being midway in
the race they were in the dash at the
finish-going 80 miles an hour. They
were punched. almost neck and
neck. Spot" Bruggerman, who has
caused much worry among the other
riders by his "elbowing" tactics
struck Renel, who had the pole.
spot" shot outward and hit Rich
ard, Brugserman might have gone
over the fence himself had he not
struck the other rider AS it was
Richard became the victim. Like an
arrow from a bow he rose to height
of As feet in the air He cleared
fence, --ndstand and all and landed
more than zoe feet from where the
riders eollided-in a puddle of mud.
He crossed the finishing line-in the
air.
d ICHARD was taken to the st
N Joseph's Sanitarium on a special
electric car. An examination OF his
wounds shows a fracture Of the spinal
column between the shoulders, sew
eral vertebrate being broken, and sew
eral ribs fractured. Dr. Moers said
Monday that it was thought Richard
would recover. There seems to be no
pressure on the spinal column. and
the rider is not paralyzed, as is so
often the case in a spinal fracture.
However, the extent of his hurts are
largely a matter to be determined, as
he may he internally injured. Again
It seemed as though a miracle had
happened No one believed that a
second man could go over the grand
stand at such a terrific pace ami
live.
A second after the form OF Rich
ard had gone hurtling through the
air over the heads of the watchers.
