A beautiful pony trap, indeed, was the
cart entered by little Miss Marguerite
Alcorn, who had with her three little
friends, Annie May Fleming, Matte
Williamson aud Mary Rainey. The
back ground of the trap was of ferns,
and there was something very graceful
and attractive about it's decorations of
marguerites of every delicate, pretty tint.
Beautiful and artistic in design as was
the cart, quite as attractive and alto
gether winsome were the little maids
riding amid the flowers. The wheels

cob webs, and marguerites were

was white and decorated with bows of
white satin ribbon. The little ones
were arrayed entirely in white. Mas
ters John Padgett and John Fleming,
uniformed in white. with bow-knots of
marguerites, were the outriders. Miss
Marguerite's white dog, who would not
be left at home, was adorned with satin
ribbons and occupied place with her
| in the trap.

would have been hard to find one more
exquisite than Miss Jane Elam's. The
body of the trap and the wheels we're
wrapped in green ribbons, and literally
covered with countless golden-hued
tulips. The horse drawing the trap was
caparisoned in green with touches of
yeilor and bowknots of ribbon. With
Miss Elam rode Misses Mary Lamb,
Mittie Elan and Florence Farrell.

yellow ribbons. The outriders, uni

teamed pony trap, and had with them
two bright little mai5ens-Lady Anne

who. in their dainty dresses Of white
null over pink silk, looked as sweet and
winsome as the flowers amid which they
rode. The trap was quite hidden by
