n the Riding and Hunt Club
last night to watch the exhibition
riding at the second indoor show
of this season. And the galleries
were crowded with keenly interest
ed spectators, who burst forth in
frequent applause as a beautiful
horse trotted forth, or a skilled
rider put his mount over difficult
jumps.
Miss Madeline Aleshire, daughter
Of Major and Mrs. o. C. Aleshtre,
took a tumble in the 'touch and
go" event, but this did not prevent
her from taking part in the next
event-Class 5: Corinthian, four
: iumps of four feet-in which she
won the third place on her horse
Virginia"
Mile. Heilmann-Claire or Helene
rode her big, white horse in several
events and did some clever horse
manship in putting the reluctant
animal over difficult hurdles, but
she did not win out in any event.
The Heilmann girls, who will be
leaving Washington soon, as their
father has been transferred to San
Francisco to the French consulate
general there, have found the rid
ing hall at the club a marvellous
OuIloC lot suppressed 0OoAA 90
during this weather that has made
outdoor riding impossible.
Gus Buchholz's horse, Occidental
Max" easily won the first prize in
the event of class 2, saddle horses.
Mr.. Buchholz, who owns the horse,
was his rider last night. This horse
also won first place at the horse
show at the club just before Christ
mas. General Henry T. Allen pre-
scented the trophy to Mr.. Buchhoiz,
who himself was the donor or cup
in the ''Corinthian" event.
General William Mitchell did not
ride last night-an unusual in
activity for hin-but he never
missed a trick in observation OF
the ring. Mrs. Mitchell, who is as
enthusiastic a devotee or sports as
her husband, was also an eager
spectator.
In the upper gallery there was
noted Miss Evelyn Walker, school
girl daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold Walker, who is spending
the weekend here with her parents
and who will return. to Foxcroft
next week. A bad cold made her
q spectator last night instead OF
participant. This was especially
hard on this skilled little eques-

when on her horse. With her was
her brother, Aldace Walker, who
is Just through with "midyears" at
Yale, and who has run down to
washington for few days recrea-
ton.
Walter Denegre's horse, Proctor
Smith," won q second and TWO
thirds. Twice he was ridden by
Roland Dawson and once by MISS
Rith Matthews, of Warrenton, va
Mr.. Denegre can often be seen riding
this horse on the bride path OF
Rock Creek Park-hut last night
he was willing to watch him ridden
by others.
Russell" the horse Of Charles
Carrico, starred by winning the cup
in the fifth event, the "Corinthian,"
when he was ridden by Mr.. CARR |
60. and also the first prize in the
sixth event, the ladies' hunters,
when he was ridden by Mrs. Carrico, |
