NEWPORT, r. l., September TO- 1902.
Viewpoints social season Is fast fading
away, although fox hunts and informal en-
PERTAINING of the most ENJOYABLE sort will
run throughout the month The dog show
of Wednesday is the last scheduled event at
the Casino. The polo and golf tournaments,
just over, were practically fizzles and the
horse show, while well attended and finan-
cially successful, lacked much of the old
time color of the days of Thomas w Law
son, Charles F. Bates and others Novelty
has been strangely lacking the last three
years in the equine exhibit, which must
take a new tack II 1t is to hold its own.

composed of four large balls, three sensa-
TONS one novel theatrical performance and
the usual tournaments. The only real sue
cess Of the summer in sports was the ten
mis- tournament. Even the wind was con-
tinually against the yachtsmen, who had q
