Army Officers
to Compete at
Big Horse Show
Americans Expect to Compete with
Best Horsemen Of European
Armies.

American cavalry officers, particularly
those stationed at the western army post
are on edge awaiting the selection Of tn,
teams which will participate in the inter
national competition at the National Hors.
show in New York next November aKains
the crack riders Of Great Britain's hussars
and lancers, who have accepted the asso
Citations invitation to compete.
In addition to the British officers, Presi.
dent Alfred @. Vanderbilt is hopeful OF Sc
curing the presence Of the French and Bel
CLAN riders, who competed so successfully
in the International Horse show at tbs
London Olympia last month.
At the national show at Madison Square
garden last year the American team. which
included Lieutenant Eoen Swift, IT,
Eleventh United States cavalry; Lieutenant
John c. Montgomery. Seventh United States
cavalry; Lieutenant J. 8. Martin, Four
tenth United States Cavalry Lieutenant
Gordon Johnston. Third United States cav
airy, ana Lieutenant George W. Lee
Seventh United States cavalry, made q
splendid showing, considering the short
time at their disposal for shooting after
the War department had sanctioned their
participation In the big event.
In the International Horse show In Lon
don, Belgium and France sent their finest
riders into the arena with tho officers of
the Sixteenth lanoers in the competitor for
King Edward VI. cup, and the Britons
were overwhelmed by the art and the won
derfuily schooled animals OF the continental
officers. Only a single fault separated Bel
GUM, which won from France, the second
choice, while the lanoers were Inundated
by criticism urging a new system Of school
ing In riding along the lines OF the CONT
mental armies. The United States army
was not represented in the competition but
II has been reported to the officials OF the
national show that there Is good reason
to believe that the men in blue who win
appear in the ring at Madison Square gar
den will represent the flower OF the picked
riders Of the army.
Not a little Of the success attending the
jumping ana riding exhibitions OF the Brit
ish army horsemen in the national and In
ternational horse shows held in New York
and Chicago respectively, last winter was
due to the direction OF colonel. the Hon.
]. @. Beresford. ID. 8. o., Seventh hussars,
Aldershot, who again will have complete
charge OF the England team which will
include Lieutenant Godfrey Brooke. of the
Sixteenth lAncers, who led the British rid
ers and jumpers in the international show
at the Olympia in June. Added interest
has been given TO the promise OF a team Of
English officers by the report from Lieu
tenant Winfield b. SiftOn OF TOronto. Can.
that the dominion government win formally
conclude arrangements soon. whereby a
team OF ten Canadian officers will attend
the national show. These riders are quite
likely 70 be provided with the best schooled
mounts 10 be found IN Canada, so eager
are the officers OF the War department
to show the superiority OF the Canadian
soldiers over the team from the mother
tinent.

Among the features that have grown
more popular this season over at Lake
Manawa, dancing takes place only sec
ond to bathing. Time was when q class OF
people who are now regular patrons Of
the dance at Manawa would hesitate be-
fore indulging IN this wholesome amuse-
ment. The character Of the people who
dance at Manawa and the prevailing de-
corurn Is such now that It is a common
sight TO see members Of the exclusive
clubs, who come in parties, indulge in
dancing. A popular program with many
OF the best people this summer has been
a good warming up on the dance floor
followed by a plunge into the lake. As
an exerciser and invgorator. this Is con-
sldered exceedingly good. As an incentive
for the crack roller skaters to show what
they can do, prize IL going TO be hung
up to be contested for. The first event of
this kind will be pulled Off just as soon
as entries are secured. Expert skaters who
would like to enter are requested to make
application at the roller skating rink or the
park offices.
For the first half OF this week starting
this afternoon. the Gayety management
will offer In conjunction with the regular
summer time vaudeville bill a veritable
''sauirm-fest" in the form Of the efforts
Of Billy Weaver, the jail breaker and
handcuff expert to extricats himself from
eli manner of shackleG suctr as are used
TO eonfine prisoners. Weaver invites any
officer of the law to bring his own pet
handouts and leg irons or any similar de-
vice and lock him up. He then agrees to
free himself merely to show what slip
perry customer he is. The management OF
the theater hasn't the confidence in his
ability as a jail breaker that he has, and
30 would only consent to his appearing
with the distinct understanding that II he
does not free himself at every appearance
he is to draw no salary. So 1t is purely
up to Weaver. A novelty combination act
will be presented by the two Rebhols-
Minnie and Frank They sing and dance,
do baton spinning and expert whstling and
bird limitations. Harry Lyons song for
the first half OF the week will particularly
appeal to spoony folks-it's entitled when

picture section OF the long program wiI
as usual include one OF the excellent Imp
films that are invariably welcomed by
burst OF applause when the title is pro-
jected on the screen. Many comedy sub
jeets are also listed for display. The per-
