This, the "big day" of the Horse Show, brought out by far the largest attendance of the Meek, and likewise the largest attendance so far jotted down in the annals of the annual exhibition of the National Horse Show Association of America. Fashion naturally reigned supreme, and where fashion is feminine beauty, of course, holds forth.

Philadelphia, as the recital of The Inquirer's staff correspondent printed below indicates, made a showing that reflected credit upon the city of many homes and much money. Not to break too far away from, the main subje fashions, always fashions Philadelphia exhibitors in the ring managed to maintain the prestige that has been theirs since the present show opened. E. T. Stotesbury, who seems to have many of the classes at his mercy, captured a first prize, as did also Joseph E.

Widener. James W. Cooke, Mho has already carried consternation into the ranks of metropolitan exhibitors, made his eminent position as a breeder still more eminent, walking oil with a second and a third. William Coleman Freeman and A. J.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21. Philadelphia day, children's day and banner day such Mas to-day at the Horse Show. Children with their nurses and governesses were out in the smartest of juvenile apparel, their interested faces causing many to stop admiration as unfeigned and as marked as that bestowed upon the beaux and belles of an older growth. The children in the two families of Widener and Elkins could not help taking a great interest in everything appertaining, to the hors-e.

They live where the finest horseflesh is bred, and from the time they are old enough to be carried in their aims are Thought to the Horse ShoM-, -where their parents and grandparents exhibit. Mrs. George U.

The handsome litle son of Mrs.

Joseph E. Widener was seen in their box dur.ng the afternoon, but he is too young yet to more than clap his hands with delight at the parade of equine and feminine aristocrats. The three litle daughters of Mrs. Fred H. Allen, dressed all alike in M-hite M-ith white poke bonnets, formed an aristocratic and pleasing group of childish beauty.

IS IN TROUBLE Recovered Stolen Watch and Two Other Detectives Arrest Him The cleverness of Central Office Detectives Murray and Bond resulted in the arrest yesterday of W.

J. L. Saunders, of Brooklyn, an officer of the American Detective Association, of Indianapolis, ho is charged M-ith stealing a gold Match belonging to August Bohike, an employe of a Market street hotel. Saunders came to this city some time ago and secured a humble position at the hotel, and with Bohike occupied adjoining rooms among those reserved for the employes. About a M-eek ago Boh.kc upon returning to his room discovered, it is alleged, that his trunk had been broken open and tnat the M-atch had been stolen.

He reported his loss to the hotel manager and the police authorities M-ere notified. Inquiry was made at pawn shopn, but no trace was found of the stolen time piece. Last Mondav Bohike claims that Saun ders accosted him and said, "I hear that you were robbed of a watch and that the city detectives have been unabie to find it. That shows they are not good detectives. Before coming here I worked as a detective and I'll 'wager that I can find your watch, and if 1 do so 1 expect to be paid for my Bohike agreed to do this, and on Wednesday Saunders, he says, ieturned the stolen watch to him, remarking at the time, "You might consider this great work, but a detective like me nan easuy accomplish things of this sort." Detectives Bond and Murray, after being notified of the recovery of the watch and of Saunders' connection with the affair, made discoveries which directed suspicion against the estern detective.

So Saunders, of detective fame, was arrested, and when searched a badge and other credentials issued by the estern Detective Association, were found in his possession. Mag.strate Kochersperger held rum in bail for trial.

TERRY AS MADAME SANS-GENE A Sprightly Presentation of Sardou's Play at the Chestnut Street Opera House There could have been no purpose in the presentation of "Madame Sans-Gene" by the Irving-Terry Company except that of giving Kllen Terry an opportunity of showing mat she is Ellen Terry. In this play, done In the city upon several occasions, she proves that she is still the same artist, with all the same tricks, artifices and natural resources. The play Is hers of course. Mr. Irving does not happen until the third act.

and his passage is transitory even after that. And even then Mr. living's Napoleon is nothing beyond what we have had a right to expect. From the start Miss Terry asserts her supremacy and maintains it until the end. Nothing finer than her scene with Napoleon has within many years been seen, and nothing finer will for many years be witnessed upon the American stage.

In all th" criticisms which we have read of this child of genius we have never yet quite read the truth. She is a comedian of the highest quality, but she cannot play tragedy. We may, of course, be wrong, bur that Is our opinion. She played comedy lat ni-ht. The company was excellently cast, the scenery beautiful, the costumiug magnificent.

The play, of course, is known. But It would be a pleasure to add that Mr. Irving had learned the art of enui ciating clearlv if Mr. Irving had only learned that art. which we are sorry to add he has not.
