which he had just finished the 10

smashed into the fence at the first
turn past the finish mark. His body
was hurled thro' the air for a dis
lance of 20 feet, striking as it landed
a special policeman, who suffered a
fractured leg and other injuries. The
dead man was an amateur rider and
had competed in a few races previous
to the Fourth. He had just finished
this race and was rounding the turn
to slow down after the final lap. Sud-
denly he seemed to lose control of his
machine. The motorcycle swerved in

day, telling him that if he did so. he
might have to advertise for another
mattress finisher. The boys who work
ed with him also urged him not to
risk his life, but he could not be dis
suaded and told his fellow workmen
if he was killed to throw in % cents
"piece and buy forget-me-nots for
his funeral, which was what they did.
Blankenship's mother is Mrs. Min
erva Blankenship, 230 McKim ave-

had. Scott was a nice young man
and had many friends in his adopted
