Program For Big Show at
Wallace Park Ball Grounds.
Where Society and Spirited
Steeds Will Vie With Each
Other in Attractiveness.

All that Is required now to make
Paducah's third horse show the most
successful ever held in the south is
for the weather man up at Medicine
Hat, or wherever he is located, 10
dispense nothing but nice, balmy
weather by day, and cool, crisp tenn
perature o. nights. The promoters
have done all they could possibly do
to make ii a success, and have done
1t well-so well that they are sur
prised at their own accomplishments.
Just as indication of the good
work: There will be three times as
many entries as there were last year.
and when 1t comes to the standard
OF entries there is hardly any COM
parison. Every one is a top-notcher,
a horse that would win comment and
attention anywhere. All the world
loves pretty horse, and in Ken
lucky they come in for just mite
more of admiration than elsewhere.
Paducah has always shown her af-
fections for the blue bloods, and
yields to no other Kentucky town in
the quantity and depth of its appre-
citation of the noble animals.
The arrangements for man and
horse this year are well nigh perfect.
Ample, comfortable quarters have
been secured for the horses, and ev-l
erything that makes for comfort for
the patrons will be done.
Uniformed attendants will be on
the gate to take charge of all car
riages, for those who come in vehi-
cles. and by a system of numbers and
callers patrons carriage will be de-
livered to him quickly at the close of
the program. Automobile owners
will have a space set aside for their
cars and competent attendants will
be at their disposal. The seats in
the grand stand will be neatly COW
cred, as a protection for clothing.
and the boxes VIII be decorated fit
tingly. Deals band will furnish the
music, and the program will start
promptly at 1880 every night.
