The first show of the Charles Town
Horse and Colt Show Association came
off asst Thursday. on the beautiful
grounds of Mr.. Thornton T. Perry on
the southwest edge of town. and was all
and more than was expected. Several
thousand persous from Thu aud neigh
boring counties were present. especially
large delegation from Clarke. and CON-
ment upon all sides WAS the most favor
able. The City Band, from seats under
the shade of the trees on the hillside.
discoursed elegant music at intervals,
and the many handsome animals were
shown in the meadow below on the east
side of Evitt's run, along whose banks
meath the lordly willows the spectators
in the main assembled. Seats on either
side of the water course, which was bridg-
ed at several convenient points, afforded
plenty of resting places for all who de-
sired them and much vantage ground
for witnessing the exhibits. DR.. J. L.
Luke, the efficient president and general
manager. and the other capable officers
of the association, deserve high enco-
miums of praise for the successful out
come of this first show, which we are
sure is but the forerunner of sp'e ndid
series, year after year OF the Charles
Town Horse and Colt Show.
