Serious accidents in the Wild West Show. A race between Mexicans, Indians, cowboys and ladies was nearing the close, when the horse ridden by Green Rainbard, who was in the lead, stumbled and fell with the ridder underneath. All passed by except for Ed Berger, a cowboy, whose horse ran into the Indians horse, throwing him 20 feet. Both riders were carried off badly injured.
