WORLD BEATERS
AT HORSE SHOW
Exhibition by Ward Family July
4 at Exposition Park a
Real Treat.
rdorf, Meyer, Talcott and Capt.

The horse show at Exposition park
on July 4 to be furnished by Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Ward and family of this city
will be a horse show worth travelling
miles to see. Most of the horses they
will show have won prizes in the larg
est horse shows in the United States.
Mr.. Ward has been interested in
horses since a young man. His first
experience was on a ranch in the far
west. Later he joined Buffalo Bills
circus. where he became interested in
saddle horses. After acquiring what
saddle horse education he could in the
circus he became affiliated with sad
die horse academies in Chicago and
New York and then decided to learn
the English ways, so he went to a
fashionable riding academy in Lon
don, where he remained for several
years. After his return to this coun-
try he opened an academy in Denver
and there began to train horses for
the show ring. He has been in this
business ever since and is one of the
prominent saddle horse men in the
world who has made a real success of
that business. He has no superior in
the game.
The first event furnished by the
Wards will be 300-yard dash of real
Indian ponies. These ponies have
all been trained to run separately and
no one knows which one is the best.
They will be ridden by boys under II
years of age who will ride for blood.
Mr. Ward characterizes this as zone
honest boss race" One of the ponies
entered here, Silver Dick, was pur-
chased by Mr. Ward at Utes Springs,
Utah, and led across the country to
Ship Rock, n. NJ. He comes from a
line of polo ponies, two full brothers of
his being considered the greatest polo
ponies in the world This pony gives
great promise.
Event No. 2 will be Patrick, famous
winner at the international and Den
yer shows, ridden by Mrs. Ward in all
the stunts that are required of horse
at the big shows. Competent judges
declare Patrick the best gated horse
in America
Event No. 8 will be gated horses
ridden by the Ward family. Mrs.
Ward will show a four-year-old colt
by Forrest King with which they ex-
pect to win a worlds championship.
Master Buck Ward will show Buttons
in all five gaits. Buck, not yet 8
years old. is the youngest saddle horse
exhibitor in the world, but has expert
training and can make any of them
saddle for him.
Event No will be for hunters.
Walter D., a prize winner at Denver
over the worlds champion walk-trot
horse. will be shown in hurdle race
by Master Lee Ward.

No battle SCARED hero ever re-
ceived a greater welcome from his
own home folks than Walsh was given
by the hostile fans of this town when
he broke back into the game. Before
the megaphone man had a chance to
announce the advent of the Big Moose
the rooters had spotted his familiar
form striding in from the warming
pan. and began cheering.
More than half the spectators Jump
ed to their feet during the spontaneous
welcome to an illustrious enemy and
some stood IN the backs of their seats
the better to make themselves heard
They cheered him as he pitched few
preliminary balls TO get the range, and
when he shot the first one across To
Sam Crawford for a strike, there was
a yelp of Joy as If it were a stockyards
crowd roofing for Big Ed. AS he
retired the side in order in the seventh
the fans cheered Walsh again and in
spite of an awful eighth they we're
with him, and teered his erring team
mates, who were responsible for the
runs made off him in the eighth.

BOMBARDlER WELLS
In COMEBACK FEAT

London, July 1.-Bombardier Wells,
the English pugilist, knocked out Coin
Bell, an Australian boxer, in the sec
ond round at the Olympia last night.
The contest was for the heavyweight
championship of the British empire.
Wells by his victory won $4,000
and regained some of his lost prestige,
for while 1t was recognized that so
far as science was concerned he was
in position to meet any heavyweight.
his frequent defeats led to the opin.
ion that he lacked the stamina, back
bone and nerve necessary to make
him a first class fighter. The form
he displayed against the rugged Aus.
tralian champion has again caused
him to be numbered amang the white
hopes"

NIEH0FF JUMPS
FROM RED Lees

Chicago, Ill, July Bert Niehoff,
third baseman for the Cincinnati Reds,
did not play with Herzogs team
against the Cubs yesterday. He prac-
ticed with his teammates at his old
position in the preliminary warm-up,
but just before time for the game to
begin went to the clubhouse and ap-
peared a few minutes later in his
street clothes. He watched the game
from a box Next to him sat Joe Tin
ker, manager of the Chifeds.
Whether or not Niehoff now is
member of the Federal league was
the subject of much discussion in the
Red camp last night. His sudden de-
parture came as a surprise and, cou-
pied with the fact that he spent the
afternoon in company with the Chifet
leader, made it look as if he had de-
cided to follow the footsteps of Mar
sans and Davenport and forsake his
present mates. Other players are 60
ing to follow, according to reports
circulated last night.

That the local pug's showing IN his

is shown in the fact that the promoters
have received numerous requests from
local fans to stage another exhibition
