were swathed in flags. and the po-
MES, sleek and shining, proudly wore
tiny flags on all parts of their har-
nesses. Five of the ponies We're
hitched to buggies; the others were
saddled.
Nine Of the most eager contestants
were chosen to drive and ride the pO-
MES to the park, but with attendants
close at hand to prevent any mishap,
for the Shetlands are spirited. While
gentle, still they are not getting the
work they should and are inclined to
be lively.
At the park every contestant is be-
ing given a ride or a drive. Lemon
ade and other refreshments are being
served. Dan Carey, superintendent
of parks, said The Georgian's guests
could own the park for the after
noon, and they took him at his word.
Men from The Georgian and Amer
lean offices were delegated to look
after the children, so that parents
who let them go unattended need
have no worry as to their safety.

Splendid Audience
Hears Mime. Gadski
ONE OF GREATEST OF ALL THE
RADCLIFFE ENTERTAIN
MENTS.

Richmond's love OF music was
demonstrated last night when one OF
the greatest audiences ever seen in
the City auditorium sat through two
hours OF delightful song. by Madame
Johanna Gadski, who was aided
splendidly by Edwin Schneider at the
piano.
The recital was one OF the RAD
cliffe course While this annual con-
tribution to the pleasure and taste
OF Richmonders of high musical taste
and yearning has always been of the
highest, probably no single entertain
ment yet given by Mr.. Radcliffe has
pleased more than that OF last night.
Madame 0adski was In splendid
voice. Her numbers were chosen with
the idea of pleasing all tastes From
Wagner TO MacFady the sweet
voice ranged. And as the last tones
died away in each selection wave
OF applause rang through the vast
auditorium, which in many instances
brought the charming songstress back
in response.
Part one introduced such selections
as "Fruhlingsnachtx." by Schumann;
''Nacht and Traume." by Schubert.
and Aus meimen grossen Schmer-
gen." by Franz.
Part second was filled in with Eng
lish songs. One Of them. by
Schneider. Your Eyes. was heartily
received, while the number receiving
the most profound appreciation was
probably "A Slumber Song" by II. c.
Gilmour. MacFadyen's Love is the
Wind" closed Madame Gadski's part
OF the second part with rapturous
applause.
Wagnerean selections embraced the
entire third part, both "Dich Teure
Halle from ''Tannheuser." and
Isold's Love Death" from Tristan
and Isolde" carrying the house by
storm.
Mr.. Schneider contributed no small
part to tho pleasure of the auditors,
His "Rhapsodie." by Brahms, served
to introduce him. and the introduction
appeared most agreeable to the au-
dience. His other selections were by
MacDoweli. including Improvisation
and novelette,"
with such artists as these at more
frequent intervals the musical instinc,
OF the Richmond colony would soon
reach q pinnacle which it should have
attained long ago.
