Exhibition of Horse FIesh-The
First Days Exhibition and the
Winners.
The management of the third an
nual Open Air Horse Show of the
Morristown Field Club must have
gone to the weather forecaster and
ordered just the kind of sky, sunshine
and temperature they desired. Yes
terday was an ideal October day, not
a cloud in sight and the air was crisp
and cool. The boxes filed up rapidly
with women whose gowns rivalled
the autumnal colors ON the distant
hills, and with men most of whom
wore horsey clothes, or had some en-
blems of the animal about them, if it
was only horseshoe pin in his scarf.
The parking space was occupied with
all kinds of vehicles, from tally -ho
to pony cart. Not an automobile
was in sight, however, for horse was
king.
A brass band stationed in the
judges stand, which renders music at
each performanc, brought out new
march, The Morristown Field dub, .
as the boxes were filing, after
which the bugler sounded a revielle
and the show was on.
The judges are FIX Sturgis, George
B. Holme, E. @. Lamontagne, S. w.
Taylor. W. M. V. Hoffman, W. W.
Weaver and J.T. Gwathmey, of New
York; G. Jason Waters and S. d.
