The gathering gloom of the faces of;
the English visitors was partially dis?
pelled when Miss Mona Dunn at last
received a blue, ajtich her pluck in
coming so far mer**ed, in the class for
ponies under saddle. Miss Maud Preece,'
the eight-year-old daughter of Ood-'
frey Preece. rode Merry Legs for tne
English borseglri of the same age. and
the combination waa an excellent one,
for It took the fancy of the spectators
and drew forth applause during the
evolutions that was redoubled when
the blue was awarded.
Later In the day the English horse?
men, who had almost forgotten how1
to smile, were mirthful In the extreme.'
for In the most entrancing class of
the afternoon a previous decision of
the judges was partially reversed and
the English mare Sceptre was placed
above Miss H. D. Atterhury's Dual

the essential factor In the success of
Sceptre, and In this particular the* for?

The women ahowed great skill in
putting their horses over the jumps,
and although one or two of the ani?
