JOCKEY IS THROWN:; RACE HORSEKRLED Ballqon, Riderless, Noses Out Leader, Dashes Into Crowd at Culpeper. Special Dispatch to The Star. CULPEPER, Va., July 6.—Some of the most spirited performances ever scen here. and many splendid exhibi- tion classes marked the second and concluding day of the Culpeper horse show, which was witnessed by a throng of more than six thousand people. - A novelty on tne program was 2 trotting race, in which Capt. Guy Ax- worthy, exhibited by Montpelier farm and driven by Mr. Smith of Orange, won the blue ribbon and was presented with the silver cup given by the association. John C. Covington made the presenta- tion on behalf of the association, and Mr. Smith and his trotter received an ovation from the grandstand. One of the must interesting and one of the largest classes was the free-for- all handicap. Capt. Larrabee’s gray gelding, Buford, ridden by the owner, won first, with The Lamb in second place. One of the most hotly contested Was which _brought the Corinthian class, out both the cream of the horses and the riders. The women in full hunting costume and the men in red coats added a picturesue touch to the scene, and the skill with which the difficult jumps were managed evoked enthu- siastic applause. Mrs. D. H. Lee, who is considered one of the best horse- women in the country, fully lived up to her reputation, as did Mrs. W. W. Os- borne and_ several others. Ann Ford, with Mrs. Lee up, was awarded the first in this class. America Agaln Winner. F. W. Bennett's America was again & winner in the race for Culpeper county horses. And Low Tide, owned by Charles M. Feltner, again won first place in the tive-eighths of a mile dash. The free-for-all steeplechase, which he races, was marred by a seri- cident. In this race the entire consisting of more than sixty ere twice circled, many hurdies an ther obstacles being jumped, and t was finished with a race around the | 2 ck. As the horses took the last jump leading into the track, Balloon, owned by W. E. Jones, threw his colored , injuring him o badly that he t first reported dead, and, continu- the race riderless, passed the judges’ stand just a nose ahead of the winner. Halloon then dashed through the crowd. knocking over several persons who tried to catch him, and made for the main ance. There he caught his &ead in 1e gate, which the gateman had hastily swung shut in an effort to stop him, and broke his neck. The jockey, John Love, it is thought, will recover.

By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, July 5.—A “white paper” on the oil situation was given out to- day. It is In the form of a note which Lord Curzon, the forelgn secretary. sent to Sir Auckland Geddes, British ambassador to the United States, un- der date of Apri] 21, which inclosed for the ambassador's Information, In reply to his inquiry. & memorandum compiled by the British petroleum department, giving statistics on the oll resources of every part of the British empire and showing an ex- tremely small oil production and the absence of any general policy for the excluslon of forelgners from the oil producing areas. The memorandum says that in vast areas, where there are no restric- tions, 'no foreign country has attempt- ed to_explore for oil, except in Brit- ish North Borneo, while in Canada and Trinidad, where restrictions are enforced, forelgn capital has been working for many years. “If can, therefore, hardly be con- tended the restrictions imposed any serious disability on foreign enter- prises,” the memorandum said. i “No real parallel can fairly be drawn between the British empire, with its small and scattered production, and a country like the United States pro- ducing two thirds of the world's out- put within her home territory.” —_—— TWO WOMEN OVERCOME FALL IN NIAGARA RIVER |, Heat Affects One—Other Follows || From Excitement—Both Are Rescued.
