THE HORSE SHOW.

Preceded by informal dinner parties and followed by much informal entertaining after II o'clock, the horse show has each evening assembled many brilliant parties in the boxes, which in themselves held the interest for hundreds of people and gave the smart" touch. The horse show ia the one event in Vanity Fair where it is a fair field and no favors, and II Is the one event that seems to possess so many clements of interest to all classes of people To the "horsey sel and to those who go to be entertained there is everything that appeals to the enthusiasm and brings out in those who are there to discuss the horses shown Tn the arena something of the qualities that are required by the horse show judges If in the boxes the "classes' were an- nounced as they are in the arena there could not have been more interest than that inspired by the many beautiful wo- men who have occupied them during the week. and if out upon the glittering course the judges have been puzzled in their decisions their task was not as difficult as 1t would have been had the horse show committees required that blue ribbons be awarded In the boxes.
 The successful management of the horse show on the part of the several committees is the subject of much con- graduation, and to MT Exum. Major An derson and General Rhodes, the chair

EFFORTS ID PROMOTE
 SOUTHERN LITERATURE
Nrs. Lindsay Patterson of North Car olina Presents Massive Gold Cup Studded With Uncut Jewels
 In Memory of Father.
BY ANNIE KENDRIcK WALKER.

Ono of the most interesting incidents of President Roosevet's southern trip was his presentation at the executive mansion in Raleigh, N. C., of the William Houston Patterson memorial cup, the gift of Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, daughter of she late Colonel Patterson of Philadel- phia, to the North Carolina Historical society.
 The ceremony took place in the senate chamber about one hundred especially invited guests witnessing it. among them being, besides President and Mrs. Roose- vslt MT. and Mrs. Lindsay Patterson of winston Salem, Lieutenant Governor Winston, the state officials, the judges of the supreme court the officers of the state literary and historical society and other distinguished guests.
 The conditions under which the cup was presented to the state of North Caro- lima require that the winner of the cup must be a native born North Carolinian who produces tho most notable literary work during the year. At the end of ten years 1t is to become the property of the person who shall have won 1t the greatest number of times.
 Mrs. Patterson selected as judges in tbe annual contest the presidents of the North Carolina Literary and Historical societies, the occupants of the chairs of history at the University of North Caro- lima and Trinity college, and the occu- pants of the chairs of literature at the university and at Davidson and Wake Forest colleges. The judges made their decision a short time ago, and the an nouncement that MT John Charles Me- Neill of Charlotte, and on the staff of the Observer, was the winner of the cup this year was received with much inter- est
 The fact that the first presentation of the cup was made by President Roose- welt gave the occasion a national sgnif- canoe, and the approval of the President Is all the more significant because he is a man of letters, a writer of literature and patron of all that Is best in the literature of his native land.
 The Presidents words in presenting the cup to MT. McNeill were incisive, clear cut, practical, as they always are, and in a few moments. it is said that he expressed his sincere interest in the pro- motion of southern literature and the pleasure it gave him to sanction a move ment Tn which one of the illustrious thirteen states perpetuated the achieve ments of it's great men in the past"

party on Tuesday evening, and on Fri day evening Mrs. Partlow was with Miss Searcy of Tuscaloosa, both being two of the most admired young women of the week.
 The party of Tennessee people added so much to the social brilliancy of the horse show, as well as to the general interest. that each evening their box was among the most prominent at the horse show.
 Mrs. William Morgan of Columbia Is one of the most beautiful women in Ten nessee and the ladies in her party. all Of whom are accomplished horse women' brought with them some of the hand somest horses shown at the horse show.
 In MT. Walter Wodridge's party at the horse show were Mrs. Morgan, Mrs. Lille, Miss William Hughes, and in their box one evening at the horse show were a party of Birmingham people, including Miss Alma Rittenberry and pr. c. c. Rit- tenberry.

President my joy in this golden trophy is heightened by the fortune which per mits me to take it from the hand of the foremost citizen of the world. To you. sir to Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, our gra- cious matron of letters, and to the com mittee of scholars whose judgment was kind to me, all thanks.
 Mrs Lindsay Patterson in her efforts to promote southern literature was in- spired by the interest repeatedly ex- pressed by her father, Col. William Hous- ton Patterson, whose belief that the south would blossom again and produce some of the brightest lights in literature and art" led his daughter to do what she could as an incentive. No woman in the south Is doing what Mrs. Patterson has done in promoting literary advance ment In the happy idea conceived by her of presenting this memorial cup she is considered to have centuries ago, when prizes, were offered in Greece as an incentive to literary ad- vancement, and year after year the pre- sentation of the Patterson cup will be an event that will grow In interest. in lm portance, in historical significance, until the owner of so magnificent a trophy will regard it as the highest honor to be be- slowed for literary achievement.
 A description of the cup at the time 1t was exhibited in Philadelphia before it's presentation is as follows.
 As a memorial to her father, the late Col William Houston Patterson of this city as an incentive to the development of tho literary talent of the sons and daughters of the Old North State, Mrs. Lindsay Patterson of Winston Salem has had manufactured here one of the most massive and magnificent loving cups that Philadelphia jewellers have ever seen. This cup Is to be presented 10 the North Carolina Historical society, and by that society is at the end of the year to be turned over to that resident, native North Carolina writer who shall have achieved the greatest literary success during the year. At the end of ten years it is to become the property of the person who shall have won it the greatest number of times.
 '"rhe. Patterson cup, because of it's ex- traordinary beauty. because of the story of filial love behind it, and because of the prominence here of the Patterson family, has attracted great attention.
 '"The cup is of gold and of massive construction. It stands Is inches high. and Is inches in diameter. On the bases of the three handles are the coats or arms of North Carolina, Pennsylvania and the Patterson family. It Is studded with forty-nine precious stones. all being North Carolina gems, selected by Mrs. Patterson from over 400 specimens.

But the Drummers In Neighboring

Representative Kyle, of Ohio, has a

his colleagues as "the sweet singer from
Ohio" He is in great demand at din

melodiously, says a Washington paper.
When he was out campaigning in his dis
trlct last fall he arrived at country ho-

put up for the night also. Kyle told the
landlord he wanted quiet room where ne
