The immense circus train OF the Y.

form this evening and tomorrow even
ing arrived at the local station at an
early hour this morning and before
the sleeping populace OF Bennington

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 26.--
Equestrianism has broken out anew in
Washington. It is one of the symp-
toms of the new administration Some
thing like it has happened at intervals
for number of years. There was a
burst of it soon after President Roose-
welt came into the White House. For,
after all, the President sets the fash
ion in many things, just as surely as
King Edward sets the fashion for ones
trousers and cravats and for other ar
tieles Of manly attire.
Men who want to be in the swim, as
it were, do the things that the Presi-
dent is doing-as far as they can. This
applies to the particular class of men
who come in contact with the official
circle. Mr.. Roosevelt rode horseback
a great deal, but it was not his only
diversion. The tennis court called him
many an afternoon when otherwise he
would have been canterlng in the
country Maryland or Virginia. But
President Roosevelt became de trop to
many of the well-to-do Washington
folk, and the figure of the first citizen
upon his favorite charger became COM
monplace Now, however, there is an
other figure of the first citizen. The
papers are full of paragraphs about
his muscular horse and of the ease
with which he carries his 300-pound
rider There are stories about how
the President rides and with whom he
rides. The frequenters of the White
House offices see General Clarence Ed
wards and Capt. ssArchie - Butt, of the
Army, strolling over that way nearly
every afternoon, in their full riding

anniversary of his birth, was sent
yesterday to London, where the
founder of the Salvation Army is re-
ceiving like congratulations from the

There was also fled here yesterday

New York, sent by Colonel French, in
which he stated that Hawaii was pre-
pairing to celebrate the anniversary
and had also just subscribed twenty
thousand dollars for the building of a
Salvation Army home at Honolulu.
Tomorrow evening in the parish
house of Central Union church, Colonel
French of the Salvation Army will give
an address on General Booth, head of
the Salvation Army, in honor of the
S0th anniversary of the birth of the
distinguished religionist Colonel French
has been associated with General
Booth for twenty eight years and his
intimate knowledge of him will make
his address more than usually attrac-
tive.
Colonel French has been promoted
since he was here last, and from being
head of the Pacific Coast division, he
IS now territorial secretary, with su-
preme authority in all army matters

and is well worth listening to.
