Saturday's Race
With e?yia!R 'a? jnt crest ing a PH"-]
gram a^ Friday's. ,f n?>t more >o. th< I
J 1st annual Camden horse show wa
brought to tt close here thin afternoon
before another interested crowd.
Practically every event was a jumping
one and the spec tutors were
thrown into outbursts of applause
from time to time as on^ thrill after
another was furnished.
Probably the most spectacular and
dashing event was the scurry jump
which was run againat time over the
outside course for hunters which includes
six fences and a ditch. Burwell
Boykin of Camden captured the
race in clean fushion on Buddy with
a pix*fect performance and the good
time of 4-1 seconds. Not u bar was
tipped. The victory curried the entrance
fees.of $f> each with $2f> added.
J he pairs of hunters in which two
^ horses rnudc the leaps together was
another beautiful event, as was that
of the Corinthian hunters with the
riders in the colorful regalia of their
respective hunts and (he hum teams
of three horses each.
Several spills occurred but no one
Wit* injured, though two of the tumblers
were equestriennes. One was
thrown just as a hunter made the
lirsi hurdle to the outside of the
track but picked herself up, le.moun -i
cd and continued the ehu.se. Another)
horse stopped short of a fence and'
his fail rider pitched over his head
on the far side of the bainrier,, but
was up at price, the horse turning
and cantering some distance down the
road towurd Camden where he was
^jl^pped by a Negro gKipm. C arroll
Bas>e44^al?<\ slid off whenyhis mount
suddenly refused a jump.
Kirby '1 upper furnished an imitation
of Indian riding as well as an
exhibition of tuking jump* without
stirrups in the scurry jump. On th?'
first hurdle into the outside he lost
his left iron and as the horse dashed
on the urve to the right he had his
left foot almost up on the mount's
withers, with his lardy on his right
I lank. On the second jump from the
last the other stirrup went askew, but
the speed was not slackened?if anything
increased, but the rider kept
his postage stamp seat. He remembered
the old days in Charleston when
he used to galtop hisjirother, Voer's
pony, Dan. through the black dirt of j
Greenhill street in regular almost .
daily pony races.
It was indicated that some native j
South Carolinian still had some good j
horses, urn only by the victory of
Burwell Boykin's Buddy, but by the)
faot that Col. \V. L. Saunders of 1
Statciburg's Christy Girl took first :n |
the colorful Corinthian hunters' c!a<;,j
winning a silver bowl, and third :n j
the lightweight hunters, while Bur-!
well Boykin's Buddy also won third j
in the jumper sweepstakes.
Other interesting events ar? on the1
sporting-calendar of Camden for th .'j
near future. Friday of this weekthj1

the Canulen hunt" at 10 a. m. Sat-i
urday will see the running of the'

NOT VANISHING
There Are Now About 350,000 in the i
I'nited States
There are many die-hard myths in
American history, the most enduring
of which is that the American Indian
is a vanishing race. Like most
myths, it had foundation in fact at
one time, but it is only another case
of an old truth living on in spite of
the absence of actual support.
Out of the mouths of humorists
there sometimes conies great wisdom.
Will Rogers, who is part Indian, commented
on 'an Indian memorial convention
held in Omaha recently: "We
don't need a memorial. We ain't
dead yet, but are just getting started."
There is a wreath of significant
fact behind this wisecrack. The
I'nited States Commissioner of Indian
A' "'airs reports an Indian pop.
ilati n f about "CO,000, and there
- now an in- rcaso of about 1,50') ar
anally. Judging f-otn thevr figure-,
-.o - :.!! '<I "vanishing Amf
.v a.ppr 'aching the v:uv-hng
p i be birth rate f e Inan
ha c: . -ded the death rate S t"
he la- (. n years, says tin St.
lbvul !' -pa:.h.
i Of re ;r-e. there were more Ind ans
j ,'i the (Tiled States before the com!
,ng of :r white man than nov.. The
| estimated figure is 86,000. The
dwindling of ibis number under the
pressure of white settlement ha? established
the notion that the red man
is disappearing. It does not apply,
however, after the close of the frontier
period about a generation ago.
From then on there has been a steady
increase in the Indian population,
banishing most convincingly the myth
of the "vanishing American." In
fact, Will Rogers is rifht, his race
is "Just getting started."
Jeaee Exum, of Atlanta, Ga., 88,
commercial flyer, fell to his death in
an exhibition parachute jump at Tarboro,
N. <v.t. Saturday. The parachute
opened but failed to hold him.
Mrs. Kegla Uetancourt, whose age
is refuted to have been 110 years,
died at her home in Tampa, Fla., last
week. She was born in (Xiba on Decent*1
i 20, 1820, and moved to Flor*
ida wnen she was twenty, making
her home in Key West for 51 years
and then moved to Tampa.
