mt then, in his automobile and drove them
over TO the grounds. While this was not
the only novel feature of the closing day

champions were lifted from the motor car
and saddled for the competition In the ring
Little Jim is only So inches hish' anu
Brownie is two inches taller, but JIM with
tr7,e gallantry, abdicated in favor OF 1he
attractive little mare.
The most spectacular feature of the day
was the firth Of the Meadow Brook drag
hunt. The horses finished iE the ring Win
the pack of hounds, after a tour-nllle run
from the Bulls Head across country. MISS
Cornelfa Bryce rode Mrs. J. A burdeh
brown geIding Craven, and he MADE
splendid showing, but had to be content
with second place. as II. c. Phipps's NyVeS

IS one of the cleverest equestriennes IN lhe
show ring. but Jouac King did manage 10
unseat her in the competition Tor he4NS
weight hunters. He took the Hrst renee
fairly well. but baked at the second, and
VII
over he landed so awkwardly that she took
a cropper. She w9s on her feet IN sec
ond. however. and vauting into the saddle
compelled him to finish his performance
amid a round of applause.
