border have entirely stopped the man
ufacture of the side-saddle on account
of the small demand. They are pro-
ducjng a dainty padded cross saddle.
In the livery stables. too. it is unusual
to find a side-saddle. A well-known
stablenan in New York this spring
TOLD me that he would not permit a
side saddle to be placed on one Of his
horses. The unevenly distributed
weight of the human body, in the side
saddle. he said. frequently wounded the
horses back and the strain caused in
ternal injuries. The tight girthing
required for the side saddle in order to
keep it from slipping, he added, had
done permanent harm to several Of his
animals.
The long equestrian skirt, neces-
sary for wear with the side Is a
dangerous adjunct. If the horse falls,
il is impossible for the rider to protect
herself The flowing cloth becomes en-
tangled in hoofs and straps. and the
rider is at the mercy Of her frantic
PROSTATE mount. 1t is generally an
easy matter for the woman with d.
vided skirt to free herself from the
cross saddle of a fallen horse. '-Ad-

Safety, health and comfort all argue
for the divided skirt and astride rid
ing, If horsewomen will listen to Vic
toria Davenport, equestrienne with the
big Barnunl & Bailey circus, which ap-
pears here next Monday. Miss Daven-
port is an English girl. but boldly takes
issue with her Queen Mary. who has
forbidden the women OF the English
court to ride astride. The circus girl
literally grew up horseback, and in
condemning the side saddle she speaks
with this authority of experience and
close technical observation.
The royal edict will be hard blow
to American girls who are spending the
summer abroad" Miss Davenport de-
c!ares. Most ct the g!-ls 81 the States,
l notice, have discarded the sde-saddle
in favor of the cross seat.
In riding academies all over the
states efforts are making to relegate
the side-saddle TO the oblivion Of the
hoop skirt Of our grandmothers, and l
believe that all women lovers of the
horse should rejoice. False modesty
instigated both the hoops skirt and the
side-saddle. Comfort and grace and
freedom condemn them both.

JUDGE BRADSHAW RULES
AGAINST PLAINTIFFS IN CON.
SoLIpArioN CASE.
HOLDS PETITION AND
ELECTION WERE LEGAL
Court Does Not Sustain Claim School
Patrons Made That Petition for tho
Special Election Was Not Signed by
One Third Of the Votsrs-Case Viii
Very Probably Be Appealed.

In ruling filed with the clerk Of the
district court this forenoon Judge c.
B. Bradshaw dissolved the temporary
injunction issued June 81 against the
Independent school district Of Fergu-
son to prevent the movement TO com
plete the consolidation of independent
schools adjacent TO the town.
In Susta ming the motion for the de-
PENDANT school board that the injunc-
ton be dissolved. Judge Bradshaw over
ruled all Of the objections TO this mo-
ton that the plaintiff had presented.
Rules Proceedings Legal.
The ten plaintiff patrons who
brought the suit and secured the in
junction alleged that the petition call
ing the special election in May, TO vote
on the proposal to consolidation, was
not signed by one-third of the voters
of the districts TO be consolidated.
Judge Bradshaw ruled that this petit
ton contained more than one third.
The second objection raised by the
plaintiffs was that five notices calling
the election had not been posted IN
each of the SUB districts to be con-
solidated. The court ruled adversely
against this contention He supports
his ruling by stating that the law does
not require that such number Of not
ices be posted.
The court also ruled against the
plaintiffs on the allegation that fraud
md Misrepresentation had been prac-
iced by the petitioners in obtaining
the approval Of the county superin-
tendent to the petition calling the cleo
ton.
Will Probably Appeal.
BY an agreement of the attorneys
this ruling on the case is not TO be
final in the trial court. because not
all of the case was presented 10 Judge
Bradshaw. who considered only enough
to rule on the motion of the temporary
injunction. 1t is very proba Die that the
plaintiffs may renew the action before
the district court, by proceedings in
certiorari, which Will call up all the
proceedings having TO do with the
election, or an appeal may be taken
from Judge Bradsflaws decision 20
