Novel Feature For National Horse
B Show Of 1908. 3t
Plans are under way for an exhibit
tfon of ancient carriages, sleighs. har-
ness and other equipment in the con-
cert hall of Madison Square Garden
during the week of the national horse
show to be soon held In New York
city. James T. Hyde. the secretary of
the association. has undertaken to col
slect the material for the proposed car
riage show. New York has several
notable vehicles of this kind. and
many more scattered around the coun-
try will doubtless be Forthcoming to
make the proposed show one of rare
importance and interest to all votaries
Of riding and driving. James Hazen
Hyde owns collection of old Ameri-
can carriages, which long ago should
have found a place In one Of the pub
lie museums. It comprises travelling
coaches or chariots, postchaises. cur
ricles and other quaint old vehicles Of
eighteenth century design. Studebaker
Bros. are tie owners of two historical
carriages. One is the barouche in
which Abraham Lincoln rode to his in
auguration as president Of the United
States, The other is the carriage built
for General Lafayette and presented
to him by the United States govern
ment on the occasion of his last visit
to America.
, One Of the oldest vehicles in New
York is sleigh built in 1869. This
primitive old sled was owned many
years by Charles Welde and was
known to nearly everybody In Harlem
1t Is still in good state Of preserva-
tion. Another notable old sleigh is in
the possession Of r. M. Stivers, who
built it about fifty years ago for Com
modore Vanderbilt. 1t is lighter than
almost anything In speeding sleighs
that the builders of today can turn out
A fit companion to this old time trot-
ting sleigh is the ninety-nine pound
road wagon built about forty years ago
for Louis L. Lorillard to decide a
wager that serviceable road wagon
with pole and yoke complete could not
be built to weigh less than hundred
pounds.
Among the old time trotting vehicles
available for the exhibition is high
wheeled sulky drawn in races fifty
years ago by Flora Temple, the first
horse to beat 2:20. Alfred B. Maclay is
the owner of a most interesting collec-
ton Of antique bits. These have been
gathered from all parts Of the world
and represent the horsemanship of all
nations and all periods. Everything
that is old and interesting as illustrat-
ing the progress of coach building and
horsemansh.p will be used in connec-
ton with the new feature for the
show. 81 %@

There having been a tie vote for
member of the legislature between
John Storey Of Steele and g. A. Her
olz of Linton, It will be necessary
under THE law to hold another cleo
tion to settle the issue. The law
says the sheriff Of the county shall
call the election, but as there are
two counties in that district it is a
question which sheriff will perform
this Office, or whether both viii get
in the game, though it is likely to
fall to the sheriff Of the senior coun-
ty.
. Herolz and Storey were candidates
on the same ticket and made stren-
nous fight against Streeter and Tut
tie, their opponents, so the situation
Is unusual, as 1t now arrays these
men against each other. The cleo
ton, however, will not be confined to
them, perhaps, though it is probable
there will be no other candidates,
unless It be Col. Tuttle, who may get
in on the theory that me has anteed
and is therefore entitled to draw
cards, TO use gamblers phrase.
It is not recalled that there has
been tie for the Legislature in this
state before, so the situation is new.

Wealthy Missouri Farmers.

No better illustration OF the pros
perity of the Missouri farmer can be
found than social event which took
place just across the river from Leav-
enworth. Edward Olvis, wealthy
wheatgrower, who owns nearly 1000
acres Of bottom land, gave barn
dance in a new barn, Just completed,
and which covers almost half an acre
of ground. All the society people OF
Leavenworth and Fort Leavenworth
and almost all the residents of Platte
county were invited, and the atten-
dance was large. An illustration Of
the expenditures Of the host was the
fact that steam-heating plant was in
stalled for use on this special oc-
casion. Dozens OF autos belonging to
the farmers and others were lined up
outside Of the barn.-Kansas City
