A rather exciting accident happened at the fair grounds this rooming. "Jockey" Lyons was helping to "work out" a Hutchinson string of horses. The. one he was riding became excited and unmanageable. He left the track, ran through the fence, tearing down several rods of it, threw Lyons and tried to swim the river.

He was finally caught, after he had stripped himself of bridle and saddle, and taken back to the stable thoroughly ''worked out." Lyons was pretty badly bruised and was bleeding from several cuts, but is not as seriously hurt as he might have been owing to the serious nature of the accident. RIVER NOW GOING DOWN.
