Each officer must ride in the uni

the foreign cavalary uniforms are par
ticiilarly bright and attractive, the
scene, when all are in the arena be-
meath the brilliant lights, should be
vivid and picturesque.

a "plgeon''--a double row of posts and

obstacles decided upon by the execu-
tive committee for one of these inter-
national military contests. Then there
will be the water jumping. which is q
separate event and for another set OF
prizes. In yet another competition the
soldiers will have to ride in pairs, gall
Looping and jumping two abreast.
More entries have been received than
lat the same time last year. and the
management predicts confidently that
all records will be broken again, which
means that last years remarkable en-

J ported for the coming show, which Is
regarded as q very healthy sign OF the
breeding interests and the hourishing
condition OF the fancy for high quality

Another feature particularly pleas

that exhibitors of former years. who
had dropped out Of late. are coming

gently curves into Montgomery Road,
furnishing about three and one-nalf
miles sprinkled with easy curves Two
left turns within a mile then lead into
one Of the finest speed stretches In
the country, almost five miles, broken
by one scarcely appreciable curve. This
stretch is drilled through virgin forest
so wide that four racers can hum along
abreast. Next comes La Roche Ave-
nue., winding along the beautiful Herb
River course, then shooting across an
open plain, where nearly right-angle
turn is made into Skidway Road. The
La Roche and Skidway sections meas
ure about three miles OF winding road
way, with most of the turns safe and
easy. A left turn, then mile on
Dale Avenue, and final turn. puts tn:
car into the stretch about half mile
from the grandstand.
Every militiaman in Savannah has
volunteered to serve for policing the
course without pay. Their record In
the first Grand Prize, when they kept
the course clear by using shotted cart
ridges and bayonets, will be maintained,
even II it is again necessary to shoot.
Over the same course. on November
II, the day before the big race. two
light car contests will be run. one at
173 miles and the other at 25s.5 miles.
The first Is for the Tiedman cup, named
in honor of Mayor Tiedman, of savan-
nah, and prize of $1,000, and Is open
to cars with 161 to $50 cubic inches
piston displacement. The second Is
for the Savannah challenge trophy and
$1,000 cash, and is open to cars Of 231
to 800 cubic inches piston displacement.
Both races are sections Of the Inter
national Light Car race, the first rum
ming of which was won by Robert
Hillyard in November. 1908
The crowd of visitors is already
reaching record proportions for the
city. Thousands have signitied their
intefition of coming here by automo-
mile, but perhaps the best index OF
the depth of interest aroused is the pa
tent OK teams, behind which farmers
are coming from many miles away.
