The mornings Of thu show are fav-
ored by the more enthusiastic men,
uers of the hunting set and by the
children Of society. About three
o'clock the advance guard Of the fash
ionable throng begins to arrive. and
by four the boxes and prominent seats

cupants. and the public begins its
rounds of study and comment At
six o'clock the human tide begins to
