manship given at the show came in the
class for officers chargers. There were
fourteen entries in this event. With the
lightest touch OF the bride and pressure
of the lSg the officers of Uncle Sa m s
cavalry and artillery put their mounts
through figures of all kinds and showed
all their gaits. Lieut. 3. F. TAFT, on
Buster Brown, was awarded first prize
and Lieut.. Gordon Johnston, on John
Harper, took second.
Troop C. 18th Cavalry, from Fort Myer,
gave an exhibition drill which reused the
enthusiasm Of the crowd. The mounts of
the troopers drilled and side-stepped as
cleverly as though they had been human
beings. As grand finale the whole
troop lined up at one end of the field with
sabers raised. and. yelling like Indians,
charged straight at the grandstand, pull
ing up sharply in front of the crowd.
Ponies Small as Dogs.
The first class of the day, for ponies,
brought out several little animals
scarcely bigger than dogs. The very
smallest of the lot. Billie. owned by
George Goodacre, and driven by his little
daughter, who, by the way, was as un-
concerned as though she had not been
in the show ring, was the subject of
much comment.
The judges of the show were enter
tanned at dinner at the New Willard last
night by the officers of the Washington
Horse Show Association. Among those
present were Frank CARRIER of Harrison
burg, Va, James Graves of Richmond.
