with eaich other for the admiration of
the multituch.
While notable and successful she-ws
have been held in other cities, New
York still reigns supreme in the num
ber and quality of tbe animals exhibJfe
ed, the richness of the prizes offered
for competition and the great outpour
ing1 ot wealth and. fashion as well as
of numbers of people who throng Mad

The eighteenth annital horse show

tion's eoveted prtaws.
The New York horse show is looked
for annually by breeders and lovers of
horses, and while it ha always been a
popular place for the display of fine
raiment where hundreds of people
go to be seen as well as to see the
horse has never lost first place. The
popularity of the bicycle a few years
ago caused soaie fear that horse shows ;
would fail to attract attention, but ;
during the years when the wheel was j
at its highest popularity the New York
horse show attracted its grossest
orowds. Now the same people fear the
automobile will prove an injury to the
horse show, but its managers and pro
as oters have no fear on that score and
have good reasoa to believe that the
eighteenth annual exhibition will excel
all previous shows.
Madison Square Garden has been dec
orated with the official colors of the
Natienal Horse Show Association of
America. Both balconies and boxes
have been draped in orange and btack.
An immense tan bark ring has been

Bvery wbody aDd thoa.-
samls of nobodies go to the show. The
gathering of pretty girls is in itself a
eight te remember. Erect, haughty
beauties from Boston, smiling bettes
fpom Baltimore, demue tittle charmers
piiaeiphia and stunning crea
tures from Chicago, women and girls
1 from every quarter of the country, all
looking at one anoliher and being gazed
at ki return this gives to the horse
show a peculiar atnaeshere of Its own. ;
But tbe hosse aftei' all is the feature '
of the show. The continuous feature, ,
that is, the exMbitioja of the horses in
the stalls attracts hundreds who bad- '
ly know the clifferenoe between a
hackney and a pony. But then they'11
learn, and eve before they do they'll
get their money's worth, arid that
makes everything satisfactory. j
Down among the stalls those who r
know least about horses apparently find
the greatest interest. There is some- '
thing entestakiing to the least informed
ia the sight of the beautiful animals in
their domestic and social lives, so to j
say. Tbe big Russians, the midget .
Shetland, the dakity tboroaghbreds j
! and trotters, the solid and Tas-htonable J
! hapknprs. are at hoove there for the re-
ceptton of visitors, aad their groeans
are more than willing to assist m re-
ewving
The Judging of the various classes
begins at J each morning and contin
ues throughout the day and evening,
with intermissions for lunch and din
ner. While the show is well attended
dnri&s the daytime it Ss Sh the evening
that society is seen in its splendor of
raiment, Send the general public,
dressed is its beet, adds to the gayety
of tbe show.
The pageant ia the Garden is gor-
1 geeuq, like a ootat feefrval in the days
of old. Qrafidetir as pushed to pompos

At one entrance the horses beat an im
patient tattoo upon the plank ftooring
and at the blare of the bugle oeme

serving the vigor of the other two for
pawing purposes. Round and round
they wheel, with their exotic road rigs

necks and flanks. Leaders may try to
climb into carts, wheelers jump over
leaders, runners turn somersaults over
riders, but the solemn waxwork drivers
t never move a muscle, never vary the
proper angle of the whip; the elegant
riders remount the rearing hunters

Of course tbe horsy girl is there, but
she is onlv there in snos and is more
j apt to break out in the afternoon, when
she stalks about in the stalls in her rid
ing habit, talking to her escort of hoek
and fetlock, muazle and action. The
tailor made girl is there too. 8he leads
I inx leash the ugliest bulldog she can
j find. She and her escort know all
I about horses, too, for they are own
ers.
But, like all things human, the horse
show must come to an end. The great
carnival of beauty and fashion closes
o Saturday with a parade of- the prize
winners. Every animal in the line
marches around the great ellipse decked
with its emblems of victory, tossing
its blue and red rosettes with conscious
pride.
TheH comes tbe dosing scene, and
horse show week passes into niatory;
