quarterly stipend, on condition
that he should not leave Alex

Horeber during his former service
IN Egypt, and had hanged one of Zore-
Der's sons, who was left as hostage

Result of the Contest Yesterday
 Among Members of Mrs.. Hooker's
 C1asses-The Award of Prizes.
 The competition for prizes by members of
 the riding classes of Mrs. Hooker took place
 yesterday afternoon at Hamilton Park, and
 was very interesting and at times exciting
 The pupils were divided into four classes 1st, ladies; 2nd, pupils from ten to fifteen years of age; 3rd, girls under ten years; and
 4th, class of boys. They met at the riding rink on Martin street and then rode out to | Hamilton Park, where the exercises were
 held at 4:30 p. m., and which were not end ed until after 6 p. m.
 The pupils showed proficiency in riding which was surprising when the age of the | children is considered. The gallop and the \ trot and the hurdle jumping were very cred ! itable The attendance of so many, not withstanding it was strictly private affair, \ to which admission was had only by tickets I of invitation, shows the interest which Mrs. l Hooker has cultivated and how much conf dence parents put in her manner of teaching their little ones.
 The prizes were awarded as follows: Ladies' prize, Miss G. Peck, silver sea shell on wheels
 sey, daughter of Joseph T. Whittelsey, sil- yer cup. Girls class, Henrietta Whitney, daughter | of Eli Whitney, silver riding whip. Boys class, Louis Stoddard, son of Ezekiel l Stoddard, silver riding whip. Judges of award: MT. George Cook, pro ! prietor of the Bridgeport riding school; Mrs. George E. Maltby, New Haven; Mrs. Kim berly, New Haven.
 The prizes were given out on the grounds
 soon after the competition and were taken | to be engraved. In the contest in the misses class there were eight competitions and it was l SO close between Miss Whittelsey and Miss | Brewer, daughter of Professor Brewer, that | these two young ladies were sent around 8
