Polo at Camden.
Camden, S. C, January 22nd, 1900-In
spite of the threatening skies and a wind
none too warm for comfort a grand and
representative gathering assembled at
the Country Club grounds on Tuesday
the ninth, to watch the opening contest
of the Polo season.
The players were enthusiastic, the
spectators were enthusiastic and, last but
not least, the trim breedy-looking little
ponies seemed to feel the polo spirit in
the air and acted as though they were
glad their long period of stagnation was at
an end and that they were once again to
enjoy the luxuries which fall to the lot
of the Pampered Pets of Polo. At any
rjite, they scampered up and down the
field, twisting and turning with all the
cleverness of midseason condition, and
if their sides were heaving a trifle too
much when the play was done, well
pony, called "time" just long enough to
have a surgeon bandage the injured mem
ber, and then went in and scored three
goals in quick succession, to Camden's
everlasting glory ; and Sid Smith, ex-hero
of the Grid-iron and the Diamond, and
giving promise of future greatness on the
polo lield. Then there was James Team,
and N. C Boykin, pioneers of Camden
polo, and Kenned y, the longest hitter on
the team and the Captain, Iiarstow,
astride the famous old "Jack Pot," who
passed his. 21st birthday the fcuminer
gone, yet who loves polo even as does his
master.
The game itself ! Well, it could not be
called disappointing for it was the first,
and muscles were somewhat soft and the
hitting a little oil' color. However, three
snappy periods were played with the
score resulting at the end in 2-1 a slight
advantage for the Blue team.

And what about the players them
selves? There were the same old familiar
faces, as of yore the faces of the vet
erans who have borne the scars of many
a hard fought contest. Sometimes de
feated but never yet disgraced, and in
the end coming forth from out the dust
of five long years campaign with the
scalps of Aiken, New Orleans, Hartford,
and, yes, truly, even with the locks of
the mighty Gould quartet of Georgian
Court, dangling at their belts.
There was K. G. Whistler, once dub
bed by a New York daily, for his dashing
riding, "The Pony Express of the
Plains," and Salmond, who four years
ago in a never-to-be-forgotten match

he had received a painful sprain of his
mallet wrist caused by the falling of his

the Peds had their revenge. The periods
were lengthened to ten minutes each,
the riding was harder and faster than on
Tuesday and the hitting clean and sure.

palm. Perhaps, strictly speaking, it was
