NO HORSE SHOW.
Likely That Plans for One in Topeka
VIII Fail.

It IS probable that the Topeka Horse
Show association, which was organized
here recently with c. H. Samson, as
president, will not give the horse show
as planned at the initial meeting Of the
organization and which was to be held
at the fair grounds on the evenings of
October % to "A. The time between
which the association was organized
and the proposed dates for the show has
been found to be too short by the Off
GERS of the organization to work up
sufficient interest among the local
hOrsemen for a successful exhibition,
and besides the time was not sufficient
for many Of the local hOrsemen to get
their horses in a condition for exhibit
tion purposes.
On the other hand it is possible that
If NJ. A. Low, Fred Norris and other
Topekans, who now have strings OF
Kansas City and other places, will
agree to show their horses here, the
association will give small show this
fall as a starter for more protentious
exhibitions in the future.
I'VE found the time between organ
izing and the dates for the show was
a little too short" said ]. K. Joseph,
secretary of the association, in talking
about the matter this morning. I'VE
may be able to have a small show If
we can interest some of the Topekans
who have their horses ready for other
shows this fall, but the proba bllities
are that no show Will be given by the
association this year.
However, the autonomy of the or
ganization will be maintained and we
propose to develop plans to have a
series Of 'matinees' at the fair grounds
on Saturday afternoons next summer,
when the local horsemen viii have an
opportunity to arrange races and test
the speed of their horses. Then we plan
to get everything in readiness for a big
horse show to be held next fall, proba- :
bly, in conjunction with the race meet
OF next year"
