best dresser stood a huge bouquet of

which breathed OUT welcoming frag-

heart to his throat and he fastened

Yesterday afternoon at the continuation
OF the national horse show at Madison
Square Garden. II was in Glass 81, which
called for tandems that the blow fell
when the judges picked J. ". Harriman's
Lady Dilham and Elegant Dilham TO
wear the blue.
Mr.. Moore sat behind his brown mares
Menella and Phyllis. but they could not
match the Hartman pair in speed, man.
ners or style, and every time Dick DON
nelly circled the ring with the little Lady
and her brother they were greeted with
applause from the boxes and galleries
and shrill whistles from the railbirds.
When Elegant Dilham put his forefoot
over the trace Lady stood quite still until
II was extricated, whereas II she had
acted like the average horse might under
similar conditions she would have upset
her little brother and perhaps the vehicle
as well.

Mr.. Moore had better luck in the exhi-
bition of pairs to pole. Here he showed
his recently imported Rykon and rae
burn. and the little Lady Dilham and her
brother were excluded on account OF their
