When it comes to breaking broncos and riding acroes the Colorado ranges ona fiery mustang, Mies Ida Holthuesen, of Rocky Ford, Col., is a girl who can hold her own with the most experienced cowboy on the plains, but she came near meeting her Waterloo this morning in Central Park. Miss Holthuesen is vielting her aunt, Mra, J. K. Murray, at No, 270 Man- hattan avenue, and started out with her cousin, Rollo I, Murray, for a ride through Central Park. Near One Hundred and Fourth street Miss Holthuesen lost control of the horse, an animal hired from a livery stable, and if it had not been for the tmely action of Mr. Murray the young woman might have been dashed to death, As it was, she is badly shaken up and is confined to the house. Miss Holthuesen feels more humill- ated than frightened. t was all the fault of Bastern man- ners,” said the Injured young woman to an Bvening World reporter to-day. “When I said I would like to go horse- back riding I was asked where my habit was. I immediately got out my short skirt that I always wear at home, and my aunt was horrified, She told me I would have to wear a hablt and ride in a side-saddle—a side-saddle!"” continued Miss Holthuesen contemptuously. Knew Something Would Happe: “The minute I got in that side-saddle with a long skirt on I knew something would happen. I have loped over the range and have ridden the wildest ponies, but I always ride astride. That's the way I was reised, and I can’t see what pleasure people get out of riding with all ‘these Bagtern contraptions. Naturally I was all confused. “We entered the Park at Eighth ave- nue and One Hundred and Tenth atreet, and my horse acted strangely from the first. “I never yet have seen the horse I could not manage when I was properly dressed, but when the anémal began to prance and pull my position was so awkward I was handicapped. jut in Rocky Ford I ride half the time without a saddle at all, but when it comes to these side affairs I draw the line, “For real enjoyment give me a spirited pony, a short ekirt and the privilege to ride ‘straddle,’ as we call tt.

When Miss Holthuesen wes thrown her foot caught in the stirrup and she was dragged a considerable distance. The young Colorado girl who can manage Western ponies says her repu. tation would be blighted in the fer West if her misadventure in Central Park should be known, “Out, thers I enjoy the reputation of never having been thrown, and I would be ridiculed unmercifully if my Colorado friends knew I had met that fate on a New York livery horee, riding along the peaceful roads of Central Park.” i.
