' By ifitnt arbitrary maneuver the erica
of pork took a sudden drop of I cents to
' the pound yesterday, while at the same
time bacon, which la nothing" mom nor'i
leas than cured pork, took a Jump up

French Are Buying
Horses for War on
the Omaha Market
"Omaha Is a good horse market." say
. the Frenchmen who are hera buying
horses: for cavalry and artillery purposes
In the. French army. They have decided
to stay In Omaha longer than at first
planned, as more animals are coming in
all the time and they wish to buy all
available for their uses.
Counts de Pertrange is the Frenchman
. who judges the horses and decides which
ones are suitable. He then turns tnem
over i.6 Dr. Henry Lafenetre, the veterin
arian of the party, who passes upon the
physical fitness of each horse. William
Post and Lew Walte of New Tork ae
oompany the Frenchmen and have the
contract for supplying a number of thous
and head of horse.
None of these four men will admit that
their purchases are Intended for use in
the war. Mr. Post says their contract Is
with a private firm, but Compte de Per
- t range Is known to vbe a captain in the
French army, and the requirements which
he and the veternarian lay down indicate
that the horses are desired for cavalry
and artillery work.
The quartette of buyers have already
secured many horses at Miles City, Me.,
and other western markets. When they
have combed over the Omaha market
thoroughly, they win go to 6t Louis.

CLUB HOUSE NEAR VALLEY
BURNS WEDNESDAY NIGHT
The Fort McConnell club house onthe
banks of Lake Houlihan, three miles
west of Valley, was totally destroyed by
fire Wednesday night, la the report com
ing to Ed Hennessey, one of the mem
bers of the club. ' The loss la estimated
at about $1,000. Jt Is supposed that rtte
tire was started by tramp. '
The Port McConnell club has grounds
that are remote from any he use and the
nearest home owners were unable to
etsy the progress ofthe flames. At the
time of its destruction the club house
contained a large quantity of bedding,
numerous suits of clothes of club mem
bers, besides several boats. The club
house was a bunting and fishing lodge.
Arrangements are being made for re
building larger and better and the new
building will probably be erected this fall.
The members of the club are mostly rail
road mem.
