tho Horse show Management.
With the rain falling in torrents and the
| wind blowing from every point OF the compass
outside Madison Square Garden last evening.
| 5000 persons within tho yellow walls sat In
| comfort and helped to make the second day Of
| the National Horse Show Associations exhibi-
| tlon quite as successful as the management
| could have desired.
| All was warmth and cheeriulness within
| doors. and the women wore their most charm.
| ing gowns. tho weather evidently having no
| terrors for them. Tho electric lights from .
| thousand tiny globes shone upon as many OF
| Ward McAllisters four hundred and Oliver
| Sumner Tealls four thousand as could 1nd
| sitting room or place upon the broad prom.
| enade OF boards about tho ring.
Mr.. McAllster was invisible. but Mr.. Teall
was undoubtedly tho prize beauty in the male
division. as he made circuit after circuit Of the
| ring and greeted his faithful followers with
| tho dignity becoming his exalted station.
| Yesterdays storm shows that society will
not down. and that anything 1t takes up 10
bound to be n success. During the afternoon.
when the clements wore doing their best to
| make New York howl. there were but few
vacant soata. nearly every box having full
| quota OF OCCUPANTS. There were q great
| many children present, and the little ones en-.
| joyed themselves immensely.
They were particularly interested In the
| jumping contests. and their eyes followed sv-
| cry movement OF horses and riders. showing
| successfully terror and pleasure rs each oh.
stacle was confronted and safely overcome.
| In the evening tho childrens seats were
taken by their mothers or older sisters. but
the numerous male callers gave the latter
little or no time to watch what was going on
| in the tanbark arenn. Mrs. Cleveland again
| sat In Mr. Benedlct's box
| When the Garden doors were opened In the
morning tho lowering skies prevented all but
| the most enthusiastic devotees OF the horse
from being present, and the judging for tho
| second day began with not moro than 500 per.
sons present Before the first class was called
| there Was general exercise OF the horses In
| the ring. The first work the judges found cut
out for them was the preliminary trial OF the
nineteen green hunters entered in class SO.
| which was down for decision in the evening.
| Only the animals doomed su uflciently high class
| were selected for the final. Then came three
spanking pairs OF ponies shown to very taste
