Driftwood Blaze and lots of others In
sight most of the subscribers plainly
put their horses In to help make the new
feature a success rather than with any
expectation OF winning the capital prize.
IL the stake programme Is repeated
next season, and there IS every reason
to believe it will be, the association
ought to consider pretty carefully
whether It would not be an Improvement
on this years scheme to make the stakes
for horses that never won at the Ma
tional. or at least bar the ones that have
won championship prizes there. Then II
the entries were closed before the big
summer shows begin and nominators
were required to name their horses on
entering them, but without being re-
quired to pay the full amount of the en-
trance fee at that time, there might be
a list Of nominations like those of the
early closing stakes In horse racing.
The last important horse show of the
year will be held this week In connection

shipped their horses there for the exhibi-

Exhibitors From Abroad and
From West on Equal Footing
With Local Owners.

Echoes OF the thirty-sixth National
Horse Show seem to be singularly free
from well grounded complaints about the
judging. While there were many disap-
pointed exhibitors as matter OF course,
and while many awards, particularly in
some OF the big saddle classes, might
have gone to other horses without caus-
ing much criticism, so even were the
tops, there was no outburst such as fol-
lowed the award of the championship
prize last year. From first to last. and
In practically every division Of the show,
It looked as If the judges were trying to
Judge horses on their merits. The ex-
hibitors from the West and the ones
from abroad appeared to have just as
good chance to win, and no better, than
the largest or the smallest of the local
owners Everything considered it was
far more like national horse show than
many OF the annual exhibitions OF past
years.
AS told In last SUNDAYS HERALD, the
decision has already been made to hold
Squadron A and to raise the arena seats
back of the private boxes so that their
occupants may have an unobstructed
view OF the show ring. There Is also
some talk about extending the arena
clear through to the Madison avenue end
of the building, with the floor raised to
the Park avenue level all the way. This
would greatly enlarge the arena and
admit of bringing the hitch!ng paddock
up to the level OF the ring. 1t would be
a pretty expensive undertaking. however.
and Is not really needed. for the arena
and the ring are now larger than the
old ones at Madison Square Garden.
though lacking something of the seating
capacity of the Garden.
The big stakes for saddle and harness
horses and ponies and hunters proved to
be the best features OF this years show.
but the management hardly made the
most Of these strong attractions. Prac-
tically no publicity was given to them
after nominations closed, the reason
being, so one OF the officials said. that
publication of the list of entries or even
OF the nominators, might scare OUT
some OF the owners and their horses and
80 reduce the number of competitors for
the $4,000 prizes. The reason Is lame
ono. for everybody who entered knew all
about the most formidable horses his
own would have to beat, even II the pub
lie did not. No Snowman would have
hidden such a feature under bushel
though II had the effect that was feared.
AS a matter of fact, with such cham
pions as Animation, Bohemian Actress.

PRICES FOR HORSES
ADVANCING RAPIDLY
Highest Average on Record for
358 Trotters at Auction
Was Made Last Week.

Two recent horse auctions in the local
market have given encouragement OF
better times at hand for dealers and
breeders. George Watson's sale of sad
die horses and hunters at Durland's Rid
ing Academy during the National Horse
Show was the most successful one held
there this season. while last weeks sale
OF trotters at the armory OF Squadron A
resulted in the highest average in
twenty-seven years. according to Z. J
Tranter of the Fasig-Tipton Company.
Three hundred and eighty-nine young
and old, good, bad and indifferent,
brought S275.175. which is an average
of S70739. Mr.. Tranter said yesterday
this is the highest average on record
anywhere for like number of trotters.
The semi-weekly auctions in the Bulls
Head market are beginning. to show i'm
provement In the prices for work horses,
which went down with nearly all other
products of the farm during the spring
and summer. Records of Fiss, Doerr &
CAROLS Monday and Thursday sales in
November show that values are higher
by $40 to SIS head than they were last
summer for both fresh and seasoned
horses, and each succeeding week sees
further gain.
The next sale at Durland's is sched-
uled for Thursday afternoon and eve
ming when the late d. r. Hanna's show
horses. carriages and equipment will be
offered under the hammer. Mr.. Hanna's
large collection of Brewster carriages
will be sold in the afternoon and the
twenty-five harness horses in the eve-
ming.
IL
auctions in Jersey City reflect the up
ward trend in values. particularly for
good see esoned workers. The supply OF
such horses in the Wednesday sales Is
not equal to the demand, Dr. w. ii.
Brown said yesterday.
The steamship Mesaba of the Atlantic
Transport Line carried away a notable
cargo of American trotters from the
armory sale yesterday. They are bound
for London, where many of them will be
reshipped to Holland, Denmark and Ger
many.
