OF diamonds to become Sd oppressive,
they cast glitter over the whole affair

The riders. men and women, were loaf

by a crowd of grooms. The men made
very sturoing figures and the women
were most OF them dressed about like

Funke few years ago. Most every one
had her silk hat tilted at an angle and

all OF them looked nervous. Now it was
almost 8 o'clock and the young "blnode"
OF the town bad not yet appeared, that

Presently they arrived in "tuxedos" and
chrysanthemums and yellow gloves. Well.
they didn't do thing but hustle tho
grooms out and hunt up barber and
have every one Of them shaved clean in
the dressing rooms! You see this is the
first horse show they have ever con-
Quoted and they forgot few things.
Presently those poor grooms came back
looking cold and blue and more nervous
than ever. and the Russian brunette saw
what it all meant and threw back her
lead and laughed and thought some
thoughts to herself.
Anon the "b.oOds" were settled in
their boxes and had their glasses out
aud tie gates opened and six tandems
trotted out on the tan bark. Then the
fun began, or rather it didn't begin. You
see most OF these people had never
really been to horse show before, they
had only read about them in the New
York Sunday World, and they didn't at
all know how to act. They had kept ali

wherever you meet them by their loud
Deckties and diamond scarf pins and

from all over the world, from England

over These States as Walt Whitman put
il, ard there is one glorious Russian
who is almost as big and dark and
dangerous looking as the charger she
rides.

they are hearing about that hot cd

hall the orchestra d-onei away at slow
waltzes and dead marches and as IL %

for half hour at stretch this appal-
