Il was in this class that Miss Vera T.
Bloodgood had a narrow escape from
seriouS if not fatal injury. Her
mount, Vanity, tripped on the ran
fence on the north side OF the arena
and poked its rear feet between ths
rails. Down went the horse, fence ana
rider. and a cry of terror arose from
the crowd. Miss Blo0dgood, however,
managed to roll clear. She remounteu
and finished the course amid cheers.
David Gray, a big gray horse from
the Homewood stables, won the blue
with Highbinder second. Nancy Pansy
was third, and Alarm, giant brown
gelding, in fourth place.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vernon Castle came 70
grief in the class for novice saddle
horses and that for jumpers. In the
former Mrs. Castles chestnut geldlng
Mimic tangoed out after a brief lnspec,,
ton, and in the latter Gun Powder dld
the half and half through the gate IL
was hard lines for the profession.
Paul Moore's Jessica carried off the
blue ribbon in the class for novice har-
ness horses Supreme Polonius was
second. and Stipes, neat bay gelding'
came in third. The friends of Pandora
never abandoned hope, and were re
warded when the judges pinned fourth
prize on their favorite's head stall.
Count b. F. s. Gregory drove Duchess,
but failed to catch the judges eye.
lie caught everybody else, for not even
Solomon in all his glory was ever so ar
rayed. Among other things the count
wore a red boutonniere.
At the evening session the attend-
ance increased perceptibly, many OF the
boxes being occupied, and the railing
about the arena being lined five deep
William T. Koch, treasurer Of the as
sociation, estimated that the proceeds
to the Red and White Cross societies
would amount to about $4,000, ana
this was considered a conservative
estimate. With anything like far
weather, this amount will be largely
increased
Judge William H. Moore, whose
horses have won more blue ribbons,
both in this country and abroad, than
any other single exhibitor, was VS.
itor to the Garden last night.
Great interest was shown in the class
for ladies' saddle horses, ridden by the
fair sex on side saddles. Miss Webb's
graceful riding and remarkable con-
troll of her mount brought her home
a winner on John A. Hartford's bay
mare Gossip. Miss Clemence Crafts's
bay gelding The Mink gained second
prize, and third place was awarded 10
Twenty-Four Karat, handsome chest
nut gelding owned and ridden by Miss
Marian Du Pont.
The tandem class, for prizes pre-
sented by Adolphus Busch. Sd, brought
into the arena remarkably good show
ing of horses and turnouts. A. W.
Atkinsons pair, Walton Treasure and
Supreme Polonious, caught the Judge
eye for the blue, with Broadlawn
Farms the Whip and Mate taking sec
ond place. Felix NJ. Warburg's hand
some black pair, Woodlands Emperor
and Woodlands Countess, could do no
better than third, with The Governor
and The General, from the Bushnell
Farm, in fourth place.
Just as Troop / of the I'd Cavalry
entered the arena to give its second
performance of the first days session
Miss Eleanora Sears came into the Gar
den. The feats of the soldiery seemed
to stir Miss Searss blood, and she
clapped her hands and cried: Jolly!
joliy!"
The last event of the night was the
Judging of thoroughbred, green or quail
flied hunters, and the recklessness of
the riders as they spurred their mounts
at the rail fences caused everybody TO
sit up straight. A beautiful chestnut
horse. Rock Cress, owned by Miss Vira
Cornell, took the blue ribbon, popular
victory, with Arthur A. Fowler's Gold
Heels second and Sapolio, owned by
George Chipchase, third.
The show will start this morning at
