''miffed,' perhaps. because she had tc
be told that possibly pony, after being
brought On here, might not fulfill the
standards of required excellence.
Mrs. John Jacob Aston always ha'
several saddle horses at the show, but
they are entered in ner husbands
name. She does not ride them her
self, even in the ladies' class where a
dozen or more young ladies show theil
horsewomanship, nor does she appear
except Snugly hidden in her own box
behind a party of friends.
The horses of Mrs. NJ. E. Bosworth
of Cleveland, Ohio, are expected this
year. They are ponies in harness, and
always get a prize, whether at the
Worlds fair or the horse show of diff
ferent cities. Miss Bird, of Westbury
l.. l., has the cleverest little hunter in
the world, appropriately named Merry
Boy, who always comes to New York
to be admired in November; and Mrs
H c. Allen, of Bristol, r. l., also
brings a saddle pony.
Among those expected from New Jer-
isey is Miss Blackburn with a saddle
horse, and Miss Susa Stanton, of Hills
dale. The latter is a. very beautiful lit
tie girl, who has divided her time about
equally between the Pacific coast, New
York and Paris. From the west her
ponies were brought and from Paris
York.
Miss Taller, the sister of T. Suffern
Taller, if she arrives in the city in
time, will show saddle horse and
may ride him, along with Miss Edna
Earl Johnson, who is entered with the
saddle horse that took the prize last
year, with Miss Johnson upon his back
Miss Taller, also, will show carriage
horses which she drives, as we'll as the
steadiest-handed belle that ever flashed
past on the Chicago boulevard. Mrs
/ j. G. Smith-Hadden, of Hampstead L.
l., has hunter quite as fine as a
much-boasted western horse that is to
come 81 the way from St. Louis; and
| be it told that a st. Louis woman,
has engaged very fine private stables
for the horses she will bring on; and
under no conditions will she allow her
horses to remain on exhibition during
| the day. They are not used to being
touched by the hands of common peo-
pie" she said, when she made the ar
rangements for her bay beauties The
tcar in which the horses are to be
brought on will take nearly three days
in coming, and will be padded so that
no jar can possibly come to the horses.
At such slow rate of speed they will
hardly realize they are travelling.
! The Rev. DR.. Ormiston, of New York,
! the celebrated preacher, who was one
! of the first clergymen to travel through
the west and south lecturing, has two
grandchildren, the Misses Clara and
! Francis Orlniston, who enter a beauti-
lful black bay. He takes a prize. as
does Roy. the saddle horse belonging
to Miss Maud Pulsifer, whose father,
the owner of Tenny, spends much of
his time travelling about the country
with his horses
Mrs. Foxhall Keene's horses are al
ways surprise. She enters them late,
and they carry off ribbons when no one
/ is fearing them as rivals. Something
unusual is always assured when she is
among the list of exhibitors, as she is
this year. "a nice little saddle horse -
is the way her entry is described by
the managers.
| A story is told about the saddle horse
always brought to the show by Mrs.
/ Robert Arthur Osborn, of New York
That is the prettiest pony 1 even
saw, remarked Toledo man who was
I on here to see the horse show; land If
you think, Marie, speaking to his
wife-"that your, pony is half as clever,
! Just go on to New York next November
and try to get a prize for him." So
! this year Mrs. Osborn will have to look
well or she will lose a coveted ribbon,
| for, as an observer of horses remarked
last year, western horses are horses,
and no mistake
THAT woman thinks more of hel
pony than she does of her husband. y
remarked disguised man whose wife
was crying because she had failed to
secure a prize.
