classes At tho opening to-day Of the
fourth annual Sea Girt and Spring Lake
Horse Show. There was no gainssyins
the quality OF Mr.. Oppenheim', mare,
and. though the classes were large, and
the entries representative, the Judges had
little difficulty In deciding on the winner
as Fairy Queen.
| The FIRST appearance Of Fairy Queen
was in a combination class, in which
there were nine contenders. She gave
a good account OF herself In harness,
though when Miss Nathan showed her
under saddle. the only fault that could
be found was that she was a little slug
sish In tho galiop. only one other entry
had woman rider. Miss Mario Louise
Thompson showed A. w. Atklnsons
chestnut mare. Rosemont, so cleverly
that she took tho red ribbon TO the blue
OF Fairy Queen.
Kensington King, a big chestnut. owned
by II. stuart Hollis. was the contender
I'm the following clase. but though he
showed we'll. he did not impress the
,udges az favorably AZ Fairy Queen, who
again was decorated with the blue.
4 class for harness horse tandems, In
which Pandora Queen and Sporting Extra
repeated their Long Branch victory fol-
lowed.
Then Fairy Queen entered the ring
again. TO seek her third ribbon In tho
class for ladies' saddle horses. Miss
Nathan again rode Mr.. Oppenheim
mare. and was quickly singled out for
the chief award. which carried with IL
handsome silver cup, donated BY Peter
Uauck. ,r. There were fourteen compeu-
tors. and the judges reQui!ed an extra
trial by Barry Of Balymore. Rosemont'
, Highland Fling and Cherry Boy. Tho
