W. MAS. WADSWORTH, WAXES INDIGNANT Washington Society Woman Denies Nine Hundred Mile Ride Was an Endurance JUST WANTED TO SEE WHAT HORSES COULD, DO Says Inexperience of Miss Helen Taft Caused Much Loss of Time. Rochester, N. May Herbert Wadsworth, who holds the woman's championship for long distance riding, and who at one time outdistanced former President Roosevelt in 8 crosscountry ride through Virginia, is indignant over the reports that have gone out over the 900-mile ride from Washington to the Genesee Valley, which she completed Monday afternoon.
Mrs. Wadsworth says positively that she was not making an endurance test ride, but was simply anxious to determine what the thoroughbred da horses, bred on her own magnificent estate at Ashantee, will do. Mrs. Wadsworth started from Washington on the morning of April 25, accompanied by Miss Helen Taft, Lieut. Geibel, naval aid to the President, and Maj.
Allen, of the general staff of the army. Miss Taft Delays Riders. "During the first ten days we had to take it easy," was the way Mrs. Wadsworth spoke of the ride to-day. Taft was not as experienced in the saddle as the other members of the party were, and until she left us at Hot Springs, we were only able to make an average of about twenty miles per day.
The average for the total trip was twenty-nine and one-half miles a day, the best time being made through the lower Virginias and in New York State. want to correct the idea," continued Mrs. Wadsworth, "that these trips are made for the purpose of endurance tests. On the other hand, I am making them simply to see for myself what the horses raised here will do under the most trying conditions. This is the seventh time I have ridden from Washington to Ashantee, and each time I Invite a number of friends and select a different route in order to see the country.
Neither Miss Taft nor the naval officers who accompanted me on my last trip were compelled to drop out, although I admit some of them felt like it. Supply Wagon Upsets. "At Hot Springs, after leaving Miss Taft, we were joined by Miss Mather, of Philadelphia, and Lieut. Long, of the navy. The trip from there on was one of the most beautiful I have ever taken, and yet one of the most hazardous that we could have picked out.
The third day out on the second lap, while riding through the beautiful Jackson a Valley, in West Virginia, we encountered our only mishap of the entire trip. Two of the grooms and one of the horses were slightly injured when the supply wagon fell over an embankment, in an endeavor to run clear of a motor sawmill which we met on the road, coming in the opposite direction. With the exception of this one accident, the ride was all that any lover of sport could look for. I started from Washington I had carefully laid out my plans, arranging with farmers and residents along the route for accommodations overnight. With all these precautions, we were obliged in many cases to double up frequently, owing to the crowded conditions in the farmhouses.
All the men were put in one room, Including the grooms and my guests, and the ladies in the party, including myself, were in another. We ate our meals in kitchens. on porches, or any place that our hosts saw fit to able fortitude, in that every one of them tered in drafty a and damp stables, and serve us. The horses were often shelunder these conditions showed a remarkfinished the trip in almost perfect condi- tion. Ronds Prove Very Bad.
"The roads, on the whole, were very bad. In some places we traveled over miles of solid sharp rocks, which was very hard on the horses' feet. In other stretches the mud would be up to the horses' tails We did not encounter any real riding roads until we were in New York State. "For the last section of the trip I had invited Miss Janet Allen, of New York; Norman Van Vorhees, of Buffalo, and Lieut. Rowcliffe, of the Navy.
Miss Allen is an expert horsewoman and the only woman I have seen in the saddle who 1s graceful and capable of riding astride. Favors Side-saddles. "I am strongly opposed to the fashioned way of riding astride for women, believing it unnatural and no aid whatever to the horse. I have a saddle which I designed myself, and if every woman rider would select a commonsense side-saddle I would recommend the 'old-fashioned side-saddle method every time. "The best time on the whole ride was made during the last few days.
One day we made miles, and I truly believe that if we had started out to make a record we could have done much better. Both the horses and the riders were almost as fresh when we arrived at my home here as they were at the start. The weather in many instances was not the best, but, dressed a8 we were, who would care? All of the ladies wore dark brown khaki riding habits. while the gentlemen in the party wore the regulation army riding uniforms." During the early fall Mr. and Mrs.
Wadsworth have arranged to continue their famous Genesee hunts, returning to Washington in time for the Christmas holidays. Transfer of Lincoln Homestead. A bill was introduced yesterday by Senator Borah of Idaho providing for the transfer of the -Lincoln homestead at Hodginsville, to the Federal government. It also authorizes the acceptance of a $50,000 endowment fund. When Your Eyes Need Care Try Murine Eye Remedy.

Sarah Neilson. the young victims of the accident, of were the recovered yesterday by the crew Harbor Precinct, who have been dragging the river since Sunday evening. Both bodies were so badly decomposed that embalming is impossible, and after the bodies have been viewed by coroner's jury this morning, they will placed in hermetically sealed caskets. Arrangements for the funeral were begun by relatives last night, but will not be completed until to-day. Coroner Nevitt, as soon 88 he was notifiled of the recovery of the bodies, ordered an inquest at 2:30 o'clock to-morrow afternoon.
Sensational revelations are expected at this probe into the collision by the coroner. Whether the Lotus carried the lights required by law will be investigated. It also is likely that an effort will be made to ascertain why the two young women were allowed to drown while five men on the launch were saved. Relatives of Mrs. Haller and Mrs.
Nellson. called at the Morgue and Identified the bodies. No relatives were allowed to view the remains, except one man in each family. The body of Mrs. Haller was found at a point about midway between the Steel Plant at Giesboro Point and the Powder Magazine, at 8 o'clock last night.

"We are assembled here," he said, to send to Baltimore gentlemen of the highest character who will have in view the best interests of the Democracy of the United States and particularly the best interest of the Democracy of the District of Columbia. The reason Costello was unsuccessful this morning was because he had not and never has had the decent. Democrats of the District of Columbia at his back.
We are here for harmony. We are here to battle for right and justice, and 1 hope it will prevail. 1 should like to stand here and use words of condemnation and denunciation of the corrupt and high-handed act attempted by Costello and his henchmen, but I feel that the best Interests of the Democratic party may best be served if we effect an organization of this convention and proceed in regular order." Frank J. Wissner, who was elected on a Costello ticket in the Fourth District, and who bolted the convention, was elected temporary chairman of the organization. Charles A.
