Hera 'is what the, Atchison Globe has to
. say about tha Topeka Country club. An
Omaha, man has observed that "It is not
quite that bad here":
Topeka society Is talking up a country
club. Membership In a country club t-oata
more than an automobile, it Is a scheme
whereby a man pays Pullman dining car
prWs for a' meal In the country, and
aoeaa'l aajay It as Biuub as U he and Us
family were eating balled eggs by the side
of the remd. After a man olns a country
rlub he aiita savins: mos.er. In keeping u
with othpr member, he flnsllr haa to mort
gage hla home. If he stays at it long
enough. There is not the rural, Innocen
Joy In a country club that Topeka peopl
imasine.

CY1MANA A BIG SUCCESS
Unique Function at Country Olnb Bed
Letter Event of 8eason.
DUMB ANIMALS PLAY ACTIVE PART
Antonoblles Are "introduced to Help
Rldlcale Golf, and Altogether
Society Pnt In a '
, Lively Day. ,
"I would rather attend a gymkhana than
aleep until noon and that I saying a great
deal," said a prominent society leader
yesterday evening on th way to town
from the Country club, where ii held
tha aecond annual gymkhana, the red-letter
outdoor event of the year.
It wa the consensus of opinion at the
Country club ground yesterday afternoon
that the second gymkhana waa a succesa
In every particular; It really surpassed the
expectations of even the tournament com
mittee and others In charge of the event,
The weather was well nigh perfect for out
door enjoyment and every prospect plessed
the 300 spectator who enjoyed tha va
rious events arranged by th committee.
The big event of the afternoon' dlvert
Isement waa the automobile race In which
Ix machines participated. Th auto were
started at Interval of one minute be
tween each machine and two contestants
occupied each car. Each gallant chauffeur
waa accompanied by a fair escort who
alighted and holed the ball at each of nine
greena until the course had been made In
this fashion. The ' uphill and downhill
course added much - seat to the contest
which waa watched with eagerness. Dick
Kimball and sister won In the classic time
of "seben-eleben." The names of the also-
rsns may be hed on application at the
box office of the Country club. Mr. Klmr
ball waa awarded a silver drinking cup and
hi sister a silver tea strainer.
Women's Animal Race.
Next In point of Interest on the pro
gram of circus event waa the women'
animal race.' For ludlcrousness this at
traction certainly was the. limit; it was
the most popular high priced show on the
grounds snd besides if was a strictly first
class, moral show to which men could
take their mothers-in-law and where lit
tle children could go unattended. The
show consisted of eight society women ar
ranged In a row at the head of a course.
each woman holding a cord at the -other
end of which was tied a half or three
quarter frightened pig. rabbit, hen. rooster,
lamb or goat, as the case happened to be.
And the birds and animals were all alive,
which was the funny part of -It, that la,
funny to all but the animals. The whole
affair suggested the livestock department
of the Douglas county agricultural fair,
but It waa not. There was Mrs. Harry Ly
man holding the cutest little bantam roos
ter that ever came along the pike; Mra
E. H. Sprague lpoked bewitching with a
goat at one end of her cord; Mrs. Will
Burns was the cynosure for all ey with
her dear little plggle; Miss Edith Thomas
wa a study with her hen: Mr. , Cole
made a decided Impression with her rab
bit; Mrs. Mary Redlck and her lamb re
ceived four encores; Miss Ida Share and
her guinea pig were much sought after; I
Mrs. Wilson also had a pig in tow and
looked much st ease with her live pork.
nui wnen me start or tne animal race
was announced, then the fun began In
earnest. The goat tried to butt In and s!op
the race; the rooster stopped to crow be
fore the race had been half run, and he wa
counted down and out by the referee; the
pigs wanted to root for the Omaha basu
ball club Instead of attending to the busi
ness in hand, and thus It went until Mra.
Mary Redlck and her Iamb', crossed tha
plate and won with hands down, notwith
standing that Mrs. Lyman picked up her
male chicken and ran with It In her arms
part of the course. Mrs. Redlck received
a pretty sliver portrait frame as a reward
of merit.
