North and South Will Compete im the Hackney Classes — Boxes in De- mand by Prospective Patrons. Manager Harry Field of the Washington horse show is a very busy man, and his clerks are none the less active in arranging the preliminaries for the event, which will be held at Convention Hall, May 4, 5,6 and 7. The correspondence is voluminous, and every mail brings letters from horse own- ers and breeders, making inquiries about the different classes and the conditions for entry. The premium list, which contains all this information, fs in the hands of the printers, and will be completed this week, and copies will be sent to ull inquircrs at once. Mr. Field last Monday scnt letters to the various railroad companies entering Wash- ington, applying for reduced rates on hcrses to be exhibited at the show. The action of the Southern railway on the sub- ject indicates the course that tne other Toads will pursue. General Freight Agent H. F. Smith of the Southern railway wrote Lege Field that his company would take pleasure in handling free return shipments cf horses that have been on exhibition at the horse show, if unsold and reshipped within thirty days after the close of the exhibition, un- der live stock contract of the Southern railway. This is conditioned upon p:esen- tation of a certificate signed by the proper officers of the exhibition, to the effect that the shipments are unsold exhibits, which have paid full tariff rates one way. This means one rate for the round trip, and, as the Southern reaches many points south and west where horse breeders have their farms, the agreement will doubtless be very gratifying to such exhibitors. Prospective Display. The display and competition in the hack- ney, harness horses and standard-bred stal- lion classes are sure to be unusually good. In the hackney exhibit the north and south will come together. Mr. F. C. Stevens, the president of the show, whose hackneys from the Maplewood stud at Attica, N. ¥., have won first prizes each year at the na- tional horse show in New York, since Mr. Stevens began exhibiting, will enter some of his famous winners, and A. J. Cassett of Philadelphia will also put in some of his animals. The southern contingent will be represented by T. L. Johnson of Culpeper, who will show Coastman; Courtland Smith of Alexandria, with Beau Lyons; Henry Fairfax, with several of the get of Match- less of Loudesboro’, and Charles G. Herron of Harrisonburg, with Sir Roger. Applications Received. Many letters are being received at horse show headquarters, No. 734 14th street, from persons who wish to engage boxes for the show, and numerous applications for ladies’ tickets are also being received. Society has shown an intention of patroniz- ing the event to a very large extent, and the promoters feel assured that the show will be most successful. There will be a meeting of the officers today at 4 o'clock. AT HER OWN REQUEST. Woman Asks the Court to to Workhouse. Seated in the dock of Judge Kimball's court today was a good-lcoking woman, clothed in black. She was particularly well Gressed for a Police Court prisoner, and her good looks excited the curiosity of the audience. Her rame was given as Mary Quinn, and the charge against her was vagrancy. When arraigned she pleaded guilty and seemed anxious to go down without being questioned. Policeman Wannell told the court that the woman came to the station yesterday and said she wanted to go down. The offi- cer said he told her she would have to be lecked up if she remained at the station, and she said she was perfectly willing to cccupy a cell. “Why do you want to be sent down?” Judge Kimball asked Mary. “Because I have no place to go,” swered. “When were you sent down last?” “About four months ago. She said she wert to Baltimore when she was released and entered the Mission Home, but she preferred to come here and go down on the farm rather than remain over in Baltimore. Bailiff Kendig told the court that he thought Mary had been in court six cr seven times. The judge said he remem- bered having sent her to the Hope and Help Mission, but she was not kept there, as she refused to do any work. “That's her trouble,” remarked the bai- Lff. “She won't work, and I believe her mind is not exactly right.” “I would send you to the Hope and Heip Mission,” the court said, “ut you won't do any work, and I think they would rot keep you.” “I don’t want you to send me there,” said the woman, “for I know they won't take me. I have applied there several times lately, but have been refused.” “Have you any friends anywhere?” “None whatever.” “Have you any relatives?” “None who will help me.” “How long have you lived in Washing- ton?” “Thirty-eight years.” Judge Kimball said he could not under- stand why so able-bodied a woman would rot even make up her own bed for a good home. The only thing he could do was to send her down for three months, and re- quested that the workhouse physicians make an examination to determine her mental coniition. a WANTS A HOME. Send Her ghe aa:- Aged Woman Tramps to Washington From Virginia. A little old woman got off an Alexandria ferry boat yesterday afternoon and inquir- ed for the nearest police station. She was directed to the fourth precinct, on E street southwest, where she afterward appeared and made known the object of her visit to this city. To Sergeant Smith she gave her name as Edith Davis, and said she had come here for the purpose of getting a home. The sergeant found that she could not get in the almshouse, as she is a non- resident. ““The only thing I can do,” he explained to her, “is to take you to court, and you may have to go to the workhouse.” she said. “All that I want Although her appearance indicated that she fs not far from seventy years old, she declares she will not be forty-eight until the eee of next July. This morning she was in had’ waiked from grancy. “She said she Binal cietee William county, Va., to d had paid 10 cents to come she said, and peo- | ple in the county were kind enough to feed her and give her lodgings.
