In which horses from tho blEBcst stables In

greater part of thp third day's offering at
the Dovon Horse Show hero today. But the
day was not 'without tho possibility of
thrills. Spectators who hrfo enspod at the

The weather Is tho finest yet. No one
complained about It the first two days, but
this, the third, Is perfect. A gontlo south
west breeze blowing across tho field nnd
tho stand brilliant under a cloudless sky
made a picture lacking only bright costumes
nnd the stirring of-a crowd for perfection.
Tho morning opened with tho showing of
five classes of saddle, harness, and draft
horses, entered In tho names of tho Uni

DEVON, June 1. Tho chill In the atmos

like Bryn Mawr's fall one and prevented

U. S. LEADS NATIONS
IN TRADE WITH BRAZIL;
WAR HELPS BUSINESS
Richard T. Momsen, Vice Consul
at Rio, Here on Tour to
Tell Merchants of
Opportunity
VAST EXPORTS OF HIDES
How U. S. Forged Ahead
in Brazilian Business
Before the war Groat Britain was
first, Germany second, with tho
United States n poor third in Bra
zilian trade.
In 1914 the United States passed
Germany. x
In 1915 the upward climb contin
ued and this country passed Great
Britain, displacing her from the lead
in Brazilian markets.
The United States in 1915 fur
nished Brazil with 32 per cent, of
its entire imports, according to R.
T.Momsen, U. S. Vico Consul at
Rio de Janeiro, or more than any
other two countries combined.
Brazilian imports to this country
also increased; hides valued at
$7,600,000 wcro imported here from
Brazil in 1916, compared with hides
valued at 500,000 the previous year.
An increase of 1400 per cent.
During 1915 the United States fur
nished $50,000,000 worth of merchan
dise to Brazil.
PRINCE OF WALES MAY WED ITALIAN
The United States now leads the world
In trading with Brazil. American-made
goods havo been steadily displacing Euro
pean wares on the Brazilian-markets until
this country leads both Great Britain and
Germany, where but a few years ago sho
was a poor third to them.
This Was tho statement today from Blch
ard T. Momsen, lco consul for the United
States at Itio de Janeiro, who, after spend
ing four jears In that country, has come to
America to see that the rapidly Increasing
trade continues, nnd to further promote
trade relations between this country nnd
Brazil. M,r. Momsen Is visiting every large
city In tho country, where ho Intends to In
ton lew tho heads of all tho great manufac
turing firms.
Not only has this country surpassed In
exports Great Britain nnd Germany, which
prior to tho war virtually ruled tho South
American trade, but also In Imports from
thnt country. In 1915 hides vnlued at $7,
500,000 were Imported to this country from
Brazil, -as compared to hides valued at
500,000 for the previous year. This Is an
Increase of 7,000,000 or 1400 per cent.
Mr. Momsen gives the European war all
the credit for the United States remark
able Jump Into trading acthltles with Bra
zil. Germany Is wholly cut off from South
America by England, while Great Britain
Is too busy fighting the Germans to nourish
her trade, he said.
"The United States Is gaining In Brazilian
trade," said Mr. Momsen, "with amazing
leaps and bounds. In 1910 Great Britain
and Germany were the two largest trading
with Brazil, and the United States a poor
third. In 1914. the first year the war had
Its effect on South American trade, the
United States passed Germnny In the
amount of exports and Imports. Her climb
continued, and the next year, 1915, the
United States passed great Britain, leading
the world In tho Brazilian markets, by
furnishing 32 per cent of tle country's
entire imports, or more than Great Britain
and Germany or any other two countries
combined.!!
"During that year the United States fur
nished approximately (50,000,000 worth of
merchandise to Brazil. Of course, a large
part of this is due to the war which has
eliminated Germany In South American
trade. During 1915, for the first time In
history, the United States furnished more
coal to Brazil than Great Britain or any
other country.

RADIANT MARY GARDEN
RIDDLE'S DINNER GUEST
Singer, Almost Sylph-Uke From
Real Work in War, Enter
tained Here
Mary Garden, who has lust returned from
hospital duty In Franco, JO pounds thinner
than when she went there, was the honor
guest nt a dinner given last night by Mr.
and Mrs. A, J, Drexet Blddle at their home,
2104 Walnut street.
In a gown of pink chiffon, which had
a bodice cut extremely decollete, and a
short skirt with a marvelous pannier effect,
olio looked more llko a debutante nt her
"coming-out" tea than the ntnger whose
name hnn been a synonym for all the glories
of the human throat for years and yearn.
The loss of tho 30 pounds, It wns ad
mitted, no doubt had Its part In her radi
ancy. What may have contributed to It
niso, It was thought, was the knowledge
that she had Just signed a contract to sing
for tho largest salnry eer paid a woman.
To thousand dollars a night, sho said, Is
what sho will get next season. Tho con
tract hos been signed with tho Philadelphia
Chicago Opera Compnny as tho party of
the first part nnd the Titlnn-hnlred beauty
as tho party of tho second part.
Sho hnd another announcement, which sho
made qulto casualty. It Is that her premier
next season will be In tho title role of
Aphrodite. She seemed to take It for
granted that her Venus makes up In Its su
premo nrtlstry for any daring In Its costum
ing, posing nnd phraBlng.
Miss Garden came over from Now 'York
especially for the dinner Sho Is tho house
guest of Mr. and Mrs. Blddle, and will leave
lato this afternoon to return to that city.
Sho woro Jewels which are estimated to bo
worth all tho way from a quarter to a half
million dollnrs. Her left arm from wrist to
Bhouldcr was entwined In a spiral of pearls.
Her throat was encircled with a "dog-collar"
of tho samo gems. A double rope of
tho unmo Jewels wns suspended as a neck
laco to below her waist. Her fingers (lashed
nnd Bpnrklcd with n multitude of dlnmonds
Ret In dinner rings Sho woro three diamond
bracelets.
In one word the prima donna gave her
recipe for eliminating annoying avoirdupois
It was "work."
"To nothing but work can I attribute
tho loss of 30 pounds while In France," sho
said "I didn't diet nt nil Any woman
who Is too fat to suit her Ideas can reduce
by resisting all temptntlons to bo lazy."
Miss dnrden In France conducted one
hospital nt Versailles for soldiers and an
other on tho outskirts of Paris for refugees
Sho sang at tho Opera Comlquo In Paris a
number of times during her nbsenco from
this country nnd contributed all her earn
ings to her hospitals Sho returned to Now
ork two weeks ngo.
Among tho guests nt tho dinner In her
honor Inst night were Bishop Darlington,
of Uarrlsburg; Dr. and Mrs. Jnmcs M
Anders, Captain Robert Lee Russell, U. S
N, commandant of tho Philadelphia Navy
Yard at League Island, nnd Mrs. Russell ;
Captain Lognn Feland, U, S. N., nnd Mrs
Feland, Lieutenant Kcyscr, U. S. M. C ;

ART JURY WINS POINT
ON STATUE PAINTING
'Billy" Penn to Bo Decorated in
Bronze, City Offi
cials Agree
The legal status of the Art Jury will not
bo questioned, despite the fact that City
Solicitor Connelly Is said to have prepared
nn opinion on the subject, since the diffi
culties between city officials and tho mem
bers of tho jury have been amicably settled.
The trouble arose over a difference of opin
ion ns to whether the Penn statue nnd the
upper portion of the City Hall tower should
be pointed with nlumlnum or bronzo paint
Mayor Smith nnd hli directors havo
agreed that the stntuo Is not to get a coat
of "whitewash," and thnt the bronze paint
would be more dignified nnd pleasing to the
conservative rosldents of tho city. Alumi
num wns Insisted upon by Chief Mc
Laughlin, of tho Electrical Bureau, on the
grounds thnt a bright, shining paint of this
character would make tho tower nnd statue
stand out In strong relief In tho sunlight
and equally well In the floodlights that will
be thrown upon It nftcr July 1. The money
for this floodlighting equipment Is available
nnd will be used In the near future.
It wns during the controversy over paint
ing tho statue that tho threat was made to
punish tho Art Jury by having It declared
Illegal. The decision reached by Mnvor
Smith nnd members of his cabinet ends the
controversy, leaving honors with the mem
bers of tho Art Jury.
