JUDGE PAYS
BIG PRICE FOR
GOOD HORSE
Prize Stallion Sold
to Carmen
Gray skies Chill Society, but Horses
Like the Weather and France
and Snort with
zest

today when the horse show exhibition,
second day. opened at Tournament
park The boxes at first were not filled
so we'll as yesterday, but stylish traps
and turnouts and huge touring cars
constantly fed the crowd till the aud
ience was fully as large as that of yes
terday and more enthusiastic. But 1t
was quite cold out on the unsheltered
grandstand, and auto cushions, shawls
and cloaks had to serve their function
in keeping the society folk comfortable
and warm.
Though the skies were clouded the
day was clear and the rains which
threatened to spoil it during the early
hours of morning did not come.
Horses Like Weather
The horses, full of spirit their nos
trils dilating in the crisp air, showed
to better advantage than they would
have done under sunny skies and on
warmer day.
There were few surprises yesterday,
unless the announcements of two events
not down on the schedule might have
been termed surprises. One was the
welcomed announcement that Mable
Rex, the black mare standing 1873 hands
high and years old, entered in the
five gated saddle class and capturing
the first prize, would give an exhibit
of the day. The mare is one of the
best of her class on the coast and was
entered by the Shrine Society Circus of
Los Angeles. The exhibition will be
one of the best numbers on tomorrow's
program and is looked forward to with
great deal of expectancy by the
members of the social set who love the
saddle animal above all others
Another sort of surprise was sprung
and occasioned a great deal of con-
lecture when the announcement was
made that Changue Squire, the splen-
did Hackney stallion winning first prize
in the coach stallion class yesterday,
had been sold by his former owner,
William McKie of Los Angeles, and is
now the property of Richard f. Car
men of New York, one of the judges
in the heavy harness class. 1t was the
conjectured price paid for the foxy and
spirited animal that caused so much
excitement. 1t was rumored that the
price was a big one, but the exact
amount was not given out to the won
dering public. Those who know were
unapproachable on the subject.
Saddle Class Good
What was conceded to be the best
class exhibited today was perhaps the
five gated saddle class, though the
runabout class received an enthusiastic
greeting from the boxes. The saddle
animals went through their PAGES ex-
cellently and there was never a break
to mar the program.
The heavy delivery teams drew
marked attention, the noble animals
strong, almost ponderous, receiving a
spirited reception.
