HORSEBACK RIDING REVIVED.
Kermit Roosevelt Arouses Washiag-
ton Youths and Finds Use for
Bride Path.

Col. Bingham's bride path a-ound
the white house lot, through the
monument grounds and over the
Smithsonian way and back again is no
longer scorned by horssmen who love
a lively mount. for in his daily -eXplora-
tions about the town Kermit Roosevelt
has discovered it, and one Of his favor
ite pastimes now is ride equal to that
of John Gilpin over the once neglected
path. One may enjoy far brisker
canter over this narrow way than is
seemly safe on the highway, and Ker-
nit has so impressed his friends. Last
Sunday he ended his horseback ride by
a dash about the bride path, over the
crossings and into the white house
stables with all the life of the charge
up San Juan hill.
Horseback riding has been revived
with a vim since the advent Of the
presidents family, and the society
girls of Washington, as we'll as the
young matrons, are looking to their
mounts with greater care than ever
before. The boys, too, have the horse
back fever, and every boy at the capital
who owns a pony spends every minute
possible out of school in this lively
pastime.
Most ofthe boys were formally known
to young Roosevelt or made his ac-
quaintance through discussion Of the
pony subject. and now the almost daily
habit of half dozen or more boys is
to ride to the white house stables, Sc
cure the companionship of Kermit,
and go for lively canter. The weeds
and grass are growing visibly less
about Col. Bingham's bride path, and
in time it will be fine place for short
canter.
