The boxes and the promenade presented a
brilliant sight with their dozens of pretty
women in handsome gowns and wraps and
beautiful picture hats. The horse show is
known everywhere as show of modes as
we'll as of horses, and the Indianapolis
show did not depart from the rule. Last
years show established the event as an
important one in both a social and a sar-
torial way and this years show did not
fell behind the first one in the point Of
beautifully gowned women. To be sure,
there were short-skirted ones who came
for the sake of the horses and who enjoyed
the show from beginning to end in their
comfortable run-about skirts and shirt
waists. But the greater number of the
women present were in their fall finery,
and many of the gowns and wraps were
designed especially for the event.
One of the strikingly gowned women in
the boxes was Mrs. Frank Murphy whose
frocks last year were among the hand
soonest worn in horse show week. Mrs.
Murphys toilette last night was combina-
ton OF cream and white which suited her
brunette beauty to perfection. The gown
was princess of heavy lace, deep cream in
tint with a shirred f1ounce from the knee
of white chiffon cloth. With il was worn
a big white lace hat with pale blue plume
and the. wrap was dainty one OF silk and
lace. Mrs. Harry Murphy who was in the
box with Mrs. Frank Murphy wore a beau
tiful sheer gown of pink and blue null with
furnishings of handsome lace and white
picture hat.
The .predominance OF white gowns and

forecast of winter modes il is probable that
white, which has been the vogue for sew
eral seasons, will be even higher in favor
this year than before. One OF the hand
soonest of the white gowns was worn by
