GYMKHANA SPORTS 
Grandest Out-docr Event of the Year at Mag- 
nolia, Very Successful Affair. Sad 
Accident 
Magnolia was the Mecca for all 
North Shore society Tuesday after- 
noon on the occasion of the annual 
gymkhana games and tournament of 
mounted sports and the beautiful 
Crescent beach was lined with sum- 
mer cottagers from all along the 
shore and with the guests from the 
hotels. The early part of the day 
was cloudy and the weather seemed 
unfavorable, but as it did not rain the 
sports commenced at the scheduled 
time and as the afternoon went on 
the sun came out and the day proved 
all that could be desired. 
The program was a most interést- 
ing one and there was keen competi- 
tion for the ribbons and cups offered 
the winners. Everything went well 
until the quarter mile hurdle race was 
reached. In this event the accident 
which happened to ‘‘Joe’’ Collins, the 
popular riding instructor, severely i in- 
juring him and causing the instant 
death of his mount, put a damper on 
the gaiety of the crowd so that the 
last event—the gymkhana—was not 
run off. 
The horses had got away from the 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
mark finely and were coming down 
the beach, well bunched, for the first 
hurdle. Collins, mounted on Peter 
Roche’s Sport, was slightly in the 
lead. As they reached the hurdle 
the horses were crowded tvo close to 
the pole and Collins’ mount was un- 
able to make it, crashing into the pole 
and falling on his neck, being killed 
instantly, and crushing his rider 
underneath. 
DruPotter, Ur Dakinwand “sev- 
eral other physicians, who were on 
the beach, rushed to Collins’ aid. It 
was found that he had a broken leg, 
and was suffering from severe contu- 
sions about the head and body, and it 
was feared that he was_inter- 
na!lly injured.° He was— taken to 
the Mass. General Fospital in Boston 
on the 9 o'clock train. 
Previous to the accident the after- 
noon’s program had proved a most in- 
teresting one and much enthusiasm 
was aroused among the large crowd of 
spectators who lined the beach and 
thronged the pavilion. 
In the ladies jumping class Miss 
Alice Thorndike on Iron Duke won 
the blue together with the handsome 
parasol presented by the Grande 
Maison de Blanc. The open high 
jump was won in masterly fashion by 
Westminster owned by Newell Bent, 
sented by E. 
and with Bion Tuckerman up, the 
jump being 6 ft. 2 in. This is now 
the beach record. It was formerly 
held by Hilchester. The potato race 
was an interesting event and was won 
by R. D. Van Namen’s Rusty, second 
place being taken by Herbert Hostet- 
ter on Happy Days. 
There were eight contestants in the 
class for saddle “horses, ladies riding, 
Miss Leslie Bradley mounted on 
Cingalee capturing the silver cup pre-

Alice Thorndike on Iron Duke get- 
ting second prize, a dozen  photo-
