    		Monetary distribution at Belmont Park (1933)

    Favorite in the Coy Maid Purse, at Belmont Park, last week, was Bernard M. Baruch's two-year-old filly. Watch Her. At the barrier. Watch Her succeeded in throwing her jockey.

    		and literally a maid's purse:


    The poor servant maid wears her purse in her placket,
    A place of quick feeling, and yet you can take it;
    Nor is she aware that you have done the feat,
    Until she is going to pay for her meat;
    Then she cryes and she rages amongst her baggages,
    And swears at one thrust she hath lost all her wages;
    For she is ingaged her own to disburse,
    To make good the breach of the cruel Cut-purse.
