A MARVEL OF THE TURF.
Poseidon Wins the Triple Events in
Australia.

In far off Australia, where the sea-
sons are opposite to ours, horsemen
are singing the praises of Poseidon,
by Positano-Jacinth He has just ac-
complished winning the triple" events
the Derby, Caulfield Cup and Mel
bourne cup. No horse of his age for
years ever won these three big feat
ures before
Poseidon is considered a worthy sue
cessor to Carbine, the great race horse
that won the Melbourne cup with 145
pounds up from forty-three Oppon-
ents. Since then Carbine's progeny In
Australia and England have made his
name still more famous.
When Poseidon won the Caulfield
cup by three lengths from the field of
twenty-four. his jockey, T. Clayton,
sat perfectly still, and never once was
the colt touched with the whip. Con-
sidering that the fields in both the cups
included all the quality of the Com
monwealth, the Australian critics are
quite justified when they describe
Poseidon as standing out boldly as
one of the best three-year-olds seen
out for many seasons
1t now transpires that prior to his
success at Flemington-in fact, after
he had won the Caulfield cup (never
before taken by a horse of his age) In
record time for the race of 2.34, for
a mile and a half-a cable was receiv-
ed whether he could be purchased and
at what price. AS his owner, Mr. N.
r. Robertson" was in Europe, and
his address was not known. no imme-
date answer could be given.-New
York World.

the farmer seized him by the throat.
The dog wriggled loose and Cosvertek

of the five cows and then ran into an
other stall. The COW tied there gave a
hard kick and the dog was knocked I'M

revolver and killed the animal.
Cosvertek did not know then that the
COW had been bitten. He continued to

with that of the other cows, was sent

If You Suffer, You Can Be Cured.
Costs Nothing to Try.

If you think that you must be oper-
ated upon to be cured of piles. you are
wrong. Thousands of cases of piles of
excruciating severity-worse no doubt
than yours, have been cured painlessly
quickly and permanently, while the pa
tient has been at his work without the
loss of time necessitated by an opera
ton. In fact, many a sufferer has not
been able to reach his work or even
move across the room until after using

FLATS ON THURSTON SITE
Fifty Thousand Dollars to BE Put Into
Building, Twenty-FOurth
and Farnam.

DR.. ]. E. McGrew found the building of
flats last year profitable and is preparing
to erect more this spring. He has had
plans drawn for $4,000 flats at 1915 Chicago
street.
Ed D. and r. p. Hamilton will build a
$4,000 apartment house at Twenty-fourrn
and Farnam streets, on the ground now
occupied by Thorwald, the old home of
Senator John M. Thurston, built in 1883.
The possibility of a street care line on
Twenty-fourth street is making the exact
location Of the building problem. It may
face Twenty-fourth street and contain
stores on the first floor, or It may set back
on the alley, leaving a big stretch of lawn
in front of 1t. The Hamiltons now have
one large apartment house on the east
half OF the block and expect eventually to
have three.
William McCune has bought through the
Byron Reed company a $1,000 house at
Twenty-fifth and Caldwell streets He ex-
poets TO build another beside 1t. This is
Mr.. McCune's third permanent investment
in the last few months in Omaha real
estate.
