Mrs. Barker, with runabout that did not

for the youths, well as the lassies and
older people OF Omaha, have demonstrated
that they are well posted on horses and
everything connected with the horse, and
were discriminating in their applause at the
Horse Show last night, and the applause
was generally directed at the right place.
Three local numbers were on the pro-
gram last night and this cut down the
chances for the visitors making such big
winnings they did the night before
Pepper won most, taking down $3.50 in
cash; McCord was second, with $500. and

sporting Tandem Glass.

The sporting tandem class furnished the
jumpers for the evening. The contest con-
sists of showing a tandem team, making
quick unhitch of the leader and then put
ting him over the jumps. AS is generally
the case, Pete Roach was the first over and
made perfect jumps. He rode Glendale, the
fractions jumper that upset everything the
night before and refused to make a jump.
Roach got up early Tuesday morning and
gave her few hours training and little
heart-to-heart talk, with the result that
she won the money last night. Murray
was second with Sweet BriaT and San Toy
of the Pepper stable third. The prettiest
tandem team in the ring was that of Wer
& Rogers OF Lemars. The leader was Kill
arney, the jumper that resembles the great
Thistledown. Silver King was the wheeler
and he was a beauty, receiving round after
round OF applause as he was driven around
the track by Fred Bourke. In making the
fourth jump Bourke dropped his rein over
the horses neck and he did not take the
lump we'll, which might account for his not
being in the money. Bourke had jumped
him with a loose rein in the afternoon and
had too much confidence in his performance
The feature OF this event was Murray's
second entry He framed up what he
thought would be winner in every way.
He put two of his best horses before the
cart had Ashbrooke, a splendid driver and
rider at the reins and then a side fea-
ture he had Walter ]. Hail. son OF the great
railroad magnate. as footman, and with all
OF this array of talent the strong combina-
ton did not get into the money.
