Twenty-one years ago this summer, the suggestion wuis made by a Jmlf dozen New York society leaders that the social leaders of the metropolis gather to witness an exhibition cf blooded animals. Approved by Society. Ward McAllister was the acknowledged leader of the "tOO,” but even he was not enthusiastic at tlrst over the possibilities of the borse show The ones who finally took hold of the project In earnest were Berry Wall, "the king of dudes”; Mrs. John Jacob Astor and Mrs. 'William H. Vandsrtglt. Theodore RosAvelt. at that time u citizen of New York, became interested in the idea It was finally decided to hold the affair at Long Branch during the summer Society was there in force and placed lt» bn nd oi approval upon it Since then 11 has "IT and on been the real smart thing fot cities to have horse shows.

HORSEY HORSEISMS. Cob Is No Relation to Roasting Ear, and a Unicorn is Not Dangerous. And what is a ‘ cob," and what is a •’unicorn’ and what is a whole lot more of these horse entries? Those are the questions that are beginning to trouble Indianapolis people as they are getting ready for the horse show Here is a little slip of u dictionary that may save horse show attendants from making breaks and asstrt them in understandin«r the "fh.-t.il }U op rum A "cob’’ is a showy, high-stepping, little horse, usually deprived of the greater part of its tail. In traveling along a boulevard It comes as near cakewalking as a horse can. and is a favorite as a gentle saddle horse or for pulling a light

cart.

A "cock horse” has no particular quallfleation in regard to breeding, but mvirt be a strong and Intelligent animal, and is used principally as an extra Horse to assist the regular team In pulling a coach

or heavy rig over hills.

A "unicont" Is not a single animal as Was Its namesake, but the name is applied to three horses, two of them being hitched in the usual manner and the third in front ot the center pole If the same outfit w-ere attached to a sand wagon it would be called merely a "spike team.

Favorite Turnout.

A "tandem" is now the favorite boulevard turnout, and merely consists of two horses, one ahead of the other. To be proper, the rear or wheel-horse should be a stocky, well-built fellow, and the front or lead-horse should be a high stepper

which shows off well. ,

is to he elected and the Legislature chosen will name a successor to Senator McComas, Republican. Senator Gorman dominates the Democratic politics of tho State, but on national issuea he has seldom been able to swing the State. Thi State is undergoing a change commercially that may affect the political situation. The eastern half Is an agricultural region in which the aristocracy which thrived before the war still exerts a powerful influence. Senator Gorman is strong in that section of the State. Western Maryland is being developed by capital. '1 he iron, petroleum and lumber industries aie being worked. The new order of things lias brought In thousands of hustling business men from the North. It is to this section of (he Btute that Senator McComas is appealing. He points to the I iingley law ns the measure that made this new development posai- ' blc. He might make headway, it is said, except lor the dissensions within his Congressman Mudd, ex-Benator Wellington and ex-<Jovemor Lowndes aro ligating him. Wellington has been regarded as a Democrat for the last two years, but In tills right he 1h posing a* a Republican. Coder the aktlfu! management of .Senator Gormun the Democrats are entering the campaign with the spirit of harmony prevailing, If Gorman curries the State for his party and names McComas’ successor In the Slate it will make him nil the sttxmgur in the national game next year.

Campaign for Convention*.

New York. Chicago, St. Louis. Cincinnati. Kansas City, lomlsville. New Orleans and Detroit are the cities that have already begun campaigns looking to the i obtaining of one or both of the great national conventions next year. New Or- ! leans wants the Democratic convention, but U d'M»s not appear at all probable that a national convention wiU*KO so far

powerful and influential representatives In Hie House in the next Congress. From all accounts it Is the Intention of the prospective Speaker. Joseph Cannon, to mnke Representative James A. Hemenway. of Indiana, the actual floor leader of the Republicans, as well as chairman of the committee on appropriations. This, at least, is the word brought to Washington from authoritative sources in th* West This is a change from the old established custom which gave to the chairman ct the ways and means committee the foie of floor leader also. But Cannon has little use for the "whitehaired mandarins," as he one* described the lenders In that once powerful committee, Payne. Dalzell, Grosvenor. Hopkins and Steele. Some of these, bj the way, wdll not be In the next House, and those who are 'feelvo few favors, from Cannon, w no is to put a now element to the front It remains to he seen whether, Hemenway is big enough for the job of floor leader, liras far he has hud no extended experi- *» c ® »* a rough and lumber debater, a ro1 * which Unde Joe loves to assume and which he largely monopolized for the Republteune. Hemenway baa always been able to make a clear, concise and businesslike statement of the legislation in hand, and has never been known lo lose Ills head when the House wa* in a turmoil. If the report be true that Hemenway is to be the party lender on tho floor if will mean that hq is to become the most' ImpoHuui man In that body, next to the Rpeuker himself. Indiana has otdalned a commanding position in the House through following the sensible policy of keeping a good man in Congress, liemen1 way's rise is an Instance In point. Representative Landis’s prominence furnishes another excellent Illustration. Ho is understood to be slated for even higher honor* in the way of important commRiee assignments next winter. Overstreet is a • •ther Hoc ier Representative who cut , big figure In House legislation, being jacrtlcuinrly p-.ifUiontlal when matters affecting legislation are under comdderatlon. T ndhma seems to have taken up the policy of Maine and Iowa of making few changes In the congressional lepresentutlon. Hill In Supreme Control. The New York Democratic Bute committee tins been meeting recently, and the accounts of the sessions agiee on one statement—that David B. Hill was In supreme control It is assumed by his friends that he proposes to retain control through the campaign next year, and the impression prevails In the East that hs will name New York's delegates to the national convention and control their actions In the convention. Apparently Hill I* promoting tho candidacy of Alton B.

Bryan's Step Toward Peace,

j The verdict throughout the country | seems to b* that William Jennings Bryan has. by Indorsing the candidacy of John H. Clarke, of Ohio, for the Senate, taken a long step toward a reconciliation between the two wings of the Democratic party. Clarke supported Palmer and Buckner in ibW. and is still opposed to free silver Up to the time of bis indorsement of Clarke. Bryan had ^been busily engaged in reading out of the party every man who was not "regular fnlKW and in ISO*. Some of his most loyal friends are saying he saw the futility of keeping up the warfare against the men wrw> refused to support free silver in the

Hobaon for Congrats. Captain Richmond P. Hobson has entered the race for tha Democratic nomination for Congress in tiie Sixth Alabama district. Representative Bankhead is the present member from the district, and is seeking renonmiation. In addition to Hobson and Bankhead, W. B.

For Mayor of New York. It is reported from New York this week that Hugh J. Grant will probably be the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York. Beth Low, the present mayor, has not yet formally announced that he will accept a renomination, but the forces are proceeedmg on the theory that he will run. Grant has always been popular with Tammany. When he was mayor a few' years ago he pleased Tammany to a "t,’’ He possesses the (p.*lilies of a mixer and his supporters urn pointing to him as the one man in New York that can defeat Low Impartial observers of the trend of politic* in the metropolis say they will not be surprised if the Democrats win tilt* lime.

For many year* they have been first to nominate a national ticket, H is believed by Indiana Prohibitionists that th* national committee. which will meet in Chicago, December JS. will decide to hold the national convention in March or April.
