TAN BARK RING WILL
Be ONE OF THE FINEST
Holding Show in October Instead of
May Will Be an immense I'M
provement-Each Box
Will Seat Twelve.
BY ANNIE keNpRIck WALKER.

The boxes for the horse show will be
auctioned ON Tuesday evening in the lob
by of the Hillman. A minimum price will
be placed on boxes and they will be auc-
toned in their regular order.
The boxes, each seating Twelve, are SO
we'll arranged as to call forth many ex-
pressions OF surprise and delight, and on
the opening night of the show, when
filled with brilliant parties, they will pre-
sent a most animated scene. They are
built Immediately in front of the grand
stand which has a seating capacity OF
several thousand, this forming an inter-
esting background, while the boxes direct
ly overlook the horse show arena.
The arena is 200 feet wide and 400 feet
long and the tanbark course is one of the
most magnificent ever built in the south.
Arrangements have been made for nearly
sixty arc lights about the arena, these to
make the course a glittering scene and
where both the beauties dashing about
the tanbark and those in the boxes may
be seen to equal advantage.
The horse show holding in October, in
stead of in May, the month selected ior
the first horse show two years ago, will
In point of dress. The approach of cool
weather however, makes no noticeable
difference on those occasions that demand
elaborate toilettes. and while the season
has come when every toilette for the
street has the touch indicating cooler
weather, those to be worn at the morse
show will give the atmosphere of May
day to the boxes.
The autumn is essentially the horse
show season, and for this reason alone
interest in the Birmingham horse show
is greater than 1t was at the initial show,
and it is this interest that will make
people SILVER in their boxes rather than
miss a single event The initial horse
show was a brilliant success socially, and
as an enterprise projected by compare
lively few public Spirited men. 1t drew
to 1t the cooperation of all classes of
people.
with the approaching horse show the
enterprise is SO much broader in scope
and in every way presents itself as an
undertaking that should appeal to every
one interested in Birmingham $ progress
No similar event so well advertises a
city as do the annual horse shows, and
no enterprise seems to posses so many
elements that attract all classes.
1t would seem that if two years ago,
with limited canital. and very little of
anything as a ubstantial backing, with
practically the entire horse show ex-
penses to be borne by individuals and
yet for this initial event to have been
the great success that 1t was. that the
second horse show attempted on an en-
tirely different basis. should far exceed
the preceding event
In the time that has elapsed since the
holding of the first horse show Birming
ham has changed great deal in its at
titude to those enterprises that are some
times projected with fear and trembling.
Instead of the inclination to underrate
them and to predict failure there Is the
more commendable attitude to encourage

IN THE SHOPS.

In large Nineteenth street shop
special showing was made the past week
In hosiery. The handsomest hosiery Is
more deliberately embroidered this season,
and the prices vary from four dollars TO
eight and ten. The handwork is exquisite,
the flower designs being in great favor.
Black hosiery embroidered In delicate de-
signs In black, which were popular last
season, Is to be worn again this winter,
although the embroidery in colors is
noticeable.
Some of the new things show the very
light colors to be worn with dressy tot
lettes, and hosiery and slippers matching
the gown in color has been decreed by
fashion as the correct thing These deli
cate colors In pale blue. pink, lavendar
and in white are exquisite in the silk
hosiery and are not always embroidered,
but rely upon their softness, their texture
and their color
A startling departure In hosiery is in the
plaid effects. They come in rather bizarre
colors, but they are considered very fash
ionable. They are permissible only for
street, and are said to be in great favor
harmonizng with many of the mdoish
walking skirts which come in the now
popular plaids.
The lace stockings are still shown as
the correct thing for some occasions. But
the hand embroidered is the correct thing
for all occasions, and always In the best
of taste. That four and five dollars a
pair is about the cheapest that may be
bought adds to the claims the seasons
hosiery has upon the fashionable woman.
Wells are being made a feature by all
the shops The seasons wells are longer,
some of them embroidered l. and all of
them expensive. They are IN all the light
shades are of chiffon and net and creepy
looking materials and are as perishable
as ever.
Shoes for street wear are shaped pecu-
liarly and are not especially attractive.
The button boot is considered the most
fashionable and the dull kid is seen for
most of the upper part of the seasons
shoes, combined with the patent leather
II makes a kind of combination shoe to
be worn on both dressy occasions and
for street wear. Heels are still high, the
Cuban heel retaining its popularity.
For dressy wear the suede shoe Is the
correct thing although the patent leather
is in high favor.
The lingerie waists are noticeable for
their elbow sleeves. They are still elab-
crate with hand work, and the cheapest
may be had for eight and ten dollars.
They are as high as seventy-five dollars.
The long coat is still seen on the latest
models. All Birmingham promises to be
long coated the first time the weather
permits The shops are showing some of
the short bouses introduced this season,
and they will be worn by many women
to whom the long coat Is not especially
becoming.

VAN HAS A LARGE BEE.
Former Governor Would to the United
States Senate Go. @


Samuel RENSSELAER, Van SAINT, form
er governor, after much deliberation,
has selected the Hamshire Arms, Min
neapolis, as his future residence.
Minnesota political gossips have been
busy determining to their own salts
faction what, if any, political factors
entered into this selection on the part
of the former governor, and now some
of them have announced their conclu-
sion, declares The Minneapolis News.
1t is this:
That the former governor will be a
for Senator Nelson's place,
and that he considers Minneapolis a
strategic point from which to maneu-
Yer to this end.
In this connection, it is whispered
that Deputy United States marshals
kept tab ON every detachable movement
of the former governor during his pc
Rod of indecision, and that through
their chief, Senator Nelson was kept so
well informed of the Van SAINT plans
that he was prompted to announce his
for reelection before Van
could get settled down in his new home.
