PROSPECTS FOR HORSE SHOW Outlook for the Omaha October Exhibition 8plendidly Bright. EXHIBITORS WILL COME FROM LOUISVILLE Omaha Located with Chicago, Kansas (llr the Kentucky Me tropolis, ana Horse Inter eat Growings Very Fait, Hince the date of October 9 to 18 has been definitely fixed for Omaha's horse show the director and the horse owners an well have been bestlrlng themselves In anticipation of the big ' event. That Omaha should jump to the position among horse-show cities that It now holds In one year Is surely a marvel and It Is. up to the directors as well as the whole city to maintain the good name established last fall. -; ; Although there Is some talk of such things, there Is really no national horse show circuit, but Omaha has jumped into a circuit which Is the equal of any In the ceuntry. . Known as the 'Big Four" cir cuit and composed of the cities of Louis vHle, Kansas City, Chicago and Omaha, this city has reason to feel proud of the company In which It hits found itself at the close of the flrnt year. Thia circuit will show In this order: Louisville, Omaha, Kansas City and Chicago. The jump from Louisville to Omaha is large, and it was thought at first that It might weaken he opening day of the Omaha show to have Omaha follow Ixulsvllle, but this has all been fixed, even' this far In advance and a special train will leave Louisville Sun day morning and reach Omaha Monday morning In plenty of time for the after noon exhibition. Tea Thonsand la Cash. Last fall the association hung up 10,000, but part of this was In cups for the local men. This fall the association has de cided to put up $10,000 In rash besides cups and ribbons. Many of the most promi nent horse owners In the . country have given their promise to the directors to be present at the . Omaha show and these, with 'the professional stables which are Sure to be attracted by the site of the purses which are to be hung up, will In sure the success of the undertaking. In speaking on the subject of the horse show one of the directors said that what they deadred more than any one thing waa to arouse a local Interest In horses and to this end suitable prises would be hung up for the gentlemen and ladles' classes and especially for local exhibitors, so as to make it worth while for the local own ers to compete. The loral entries were not at all what they should have been last fall, but this might have been due to the fact that the local contingent, was not educated up to horse shows and were timid about going Into the tan bark arena. This will all be different thia fall, .as the gentlemen realise that It is not harder to drive in the arena than on the' boule vard. Among those who have so far signified their Intention to come to the Omaha show, are Frank K. Bull of Racine. Albert J. Karllng. president of the Milwaukee road, Eddie Busch of St. Louis, son of .Adolplus Busch and owner of one of the largest and best string of horses in America.

Btubbs of the same city will be present according to a promise recently made. r. Local Horses Store Bfnmeroaa.
