It is a peculiar fact that Providence is

another fact that the management, WI lch
is an exceedingly efficient one, is daily
striving to accomplish. Lincoln Field
will be the location of this unparalleled
exhibition, and the grounds have been
fitted I'D in a most elaborate manner for
the use Of the show. Electric arc lamps
have been profusely scattered about and
a track put in. and in the centre OF this is
the arena which will be covered with saw
dust.
The boxes have been erected with the
utmost care as TO making each one de-
sirable point Of view. They will seat six

evening.

slant attendance both days OF the exhibit

quired now to make the greatest horse
show Of the season an overwhelming sue
cess, and a permanent fixture OF Provl-
dence amusements.
Over five hundred entries have been
made and among them is Strauss and
Haxter winners of several Ist prizes
at Madison Square Garden. and only last
week winners of Ist prize at the show in

That this movement for the betterment
Of every class of horse, may be success
in the city of Providence and Pt0aActI0s 0f
nArH good, we earnestly request all citi-
zens to become public spirited in the
matter, to aid them by making. exhibitions
and by becoming members Of the organi-
zation, and thus creating general inter
est in the care for the useful and love
for the beautiful.
This is the second year Of the organi-
zation The work is now being carried
on by willing workers at loss Of time,
expense and effort, with no other hope of
reward than to successfully carry out the
purposes Of the organization, and the

IF Johnston, before it was divided,
was controlled by ring-it is now
in another predicament, as it is very
evident to those who attended the
Financial town meeting on Monday
that the town was then run by die
tator. The evidence Of Zone man
power" on that OCCASION was so plain
as to be indisputable. Mr.. Paris
Mathewson was the car from whose
edict there seemed to be no thought
of an appeal. Like a veteran gen
eral, he calmly viewed the field and
victory perched on his banners.
Prominent politicians, substantial cit
izens, and recently elected council
men, stood dumb and mute while
Mr.. Mathewson offered motions,
pared appropriations, and delivered
sarcastic speeches, which were some
times in order, but oftener outside
the pale Of parliamentary etiquette.
So sure was this veteran citizen Of
his ground, that he seemed to forget
the presence of his neighbors and
friends, and apparently to think that
he alone composed the meeting. 1t
was a fine exhibition of the power of
a strong will overaweing and master
ing the many. We very much doubt
ifMr. Mathevson realized how little
the others present had to do with the
affair. His vindictiveness was man
ifest on several occasions, and his
fairness and good sense were some
times in evidence. Just how long
