Palaces Wherein Are Royally Housed Equine Kings and Queens
WITH the Annual coming of the Horse Show interest la
centered in the horse and the autos will have to take
a buck seat for a week at least. Although automobiles
have been rapidly coming to the front as a means of
travel about town, the popularity of the horse has by no
means decreased and Omaha residents now have more well bred
horses than before the auto came to take its place. While some of
the wealthier people ol the city have built garages, with special
reference to housing their automobiles, still there have during the
came period been vastly more fine barns built in which to care for
the horses.
Omaha probably has more fine barns and splendid turnouts
than any city of its Blze in the west. Although the Omaha stables
have not reached the stage of faddism which prevails in some parts
of the world, still from point of equipment and appointments they
rnnk well with the best. Many have architectural beauty and are
substantially constructed with special reference to the best care
of the horses, the vehicles, the harnesses and the grooms. While
these stables are not available for the inspection of the public,
still one can get a fairly accurate Idea of the magnitude of the
requirements for the horses and equipage by seeing the display
some of the Omaha owners will make- at the Horse show this week.
The animals and the rigs are shown at that time in the best possible
condition, for a horse or rig which is out of gear has no show at
the prizes which are hung up. Not the least noticeable feature of
the Omaha stables is the trophy room, in which is hung the ribbons
which have been won at the Omaha Horse show as well as other
hows, in some instances by the horse before he came to the present
owner.
t For many years the horse has been recognized asa means of
pleasure and recreation for the gentleman, but in former years it
was the hunter and the runner, and only within the last quarter of
century has the park horse and the ladies' drivers been given the
recognition they now receive. Commodore Vanderbilt and other
wealthy men in their time were wont to choose one of their thorough-;
breds which had made an enviable record on the track and use it
as a roadster, speeding through the parks and in the winter up the
river around New York. These with all their wealth did not spend
'the money in the care of their horses, as Is spent by many of the
Omaha owners today.
One of the first requisites of the modern stable is a man with
a thorough knowledge of horses, who must not only be able to
.handle the ribbons, but also must know a horse and be able to
care for his wants in cases of emergency, and also to assist his

master in the purchase of a horse when the stable needs replenish
ing. This last is not locally so essential for Omaha possesses some
of the most competent judges of good horses to be found in the
country, and Omaha horsemen are able to go into the horse markets
of the world and hold their own against the shrewd sellers, whose
business it is to get fancy prices for their steeds. It takes a com
petent man to see that the vehicles, horses and harness are in readi
ness for a spin when the master is ready to go. This is one of
the first and largest items of expense. Besides this there is a con
tinual outlay for grooms, liveries, new harness and carriages feed,
veterinarian's bills, stable repairs, repairs to rigs and innumerable
other expenses. This all in addition to the initial outlay for the
erection and equipment of the building, which is often enough to
build a fine mansion, and in addition to the first cost of carriages
und all the other rigs which go to make up a gentleman's stable,
as well as the harnesses and the thousand and one other things in
the appointments.
In some of the stables of the millionaires of the east are rooms
for, the grooms and stablemen, gymnasiums, bathrooms and billiard
rooms, and every other modern convenience. Omaha has some
itables in which the billiard room Is missing, but all the other above
mentioned conveniences are to be found. Three men is about the
limit required In any of the Omaha stables of today and none of the
buildings are more than two stories and a basement high.
The majority of the rigs used locally are bought at home, or
in Chicago, or Omaha has merchants who carry a full line of up-
to-date stuff, while anything which cannot be found in Omaha is
surely, to be had in Chicago. The time when Americans had to
send to England or Europe for their rigs and harnesses is past.
While, of course, most of the ideas for horses, both ridden and
driven, originated in England, "still fine equipages have been used
in this country long enough to induce American manufacturers to
make the best to be had, and Europe is now buying from this
country. Omaha has stables with large numbers of horses, while
some of the most stylish equipages are handled from stables which
can boast of but two horses. Some have six and some eight. Spe
cial harness is required for each vehicle.
Guy C. Barton has a stable which for comfort to the horses,
grooms and owner and for conveniences for all, is remarkable. Al
though Mr. Barton has substituted automobiles to some extent for
his horses, because the auto can make the trip to his Sarpy county
farm quicker than the horses, still he maintains his Bplendld stable
at 3522 Farnam street. The feeding and waterlug arrangements
are admirable, the stalls large and the carriage room spacious. Every
thing is kept so neat and clean that women with white dresses can
go all through 'the establishment without soiling their skirts. The"
stalls, harness room and carriage room are so connected that there
Is a minimum of space to be covered in working between these
three. ' Comfortable bachelor quarters are on the second floor for
the grooms and the floor of these rooms Is of hardwood and well
supplied with rugs. M.' Barton has a private den, which he uses
for himself, on the second floor of the barn, and a glance shows it
Jet Jewelry and Silver Chatelaine Purses Worn
MTS? nCT-TX WALKEIt OF COUNCIL EI.CTFS.
JET is immensely fashionable this season,
not only as a trimming, but in Jewelry,
and all sorts of old-fashioned pieces,
crosses, combs, brooches and bracelets are
being gotten out for wear. The revival of
antiques is responsible for this as well as
many other quaint effects in the new things.
The bold designs, some of them approaching
the primitive, are very popular this season.
Among the novelties the La Vallier pen
dant hs largely taken the place of the locket,
the festoon on the neck chain also being very
good. The hand-carved and etched bracelet
of the Nethersole style, that slips on over the
hand, is among the best offerings in this line.
Jade, aqua marine and peridot are very popu
lar as setting in necklaces, brooches, stick
pins and everything else, particularly as dec
orations for combs
Some handsome things in stickpins are
being shown in transparent enamel also. The
coral ropes will continue to be very popular,
also the gold beads. In fact, beads are very
good in almost any color that affords a pleas
ing contrast with the gown.

talre. This room Is connected with a bath room and is also sup
plied with a well-filled book case.
E. A. Cudahy is another horse owner of Omaha with a splendid
stable in which his horses are well cared for. Mr. Cudahy has a
large family and keeps a good supply of horses and automobiles,
both of which are used continuously. He has horses which have
won numerous prizes In the ring and Is justly proud cf his stable
which he shows to his friends. His "Contralto" Is a famoiis Badille
horse, which always attracts attention in the tanbark arena and
besides he has a dapple grey which makes the public turn for a
second look when It Is driven down the street. Ho also has a fine
collection of bits, which he keeps In a glass case together with the . ,

W. H. McCord keeps six horses and the same number of rlgs
in his, stable continuously, and on these six horses the people of thf

the horses which are comins from abroad laden with reputations.
Not that Mr. McCord's horses have not plenty of reputation, for
they have, but he has the most complete stable of heavy harness
horses kept by a private individual in the entire western couutry.
His rival at the coming show will bo Lawrence Jones, although Crow
& Murray and Pepper will have to be reckoned with. No man takes
more pride or gets more real enjoyment out of his horses than
"Hal" McCord. Every morning he is up at sunrise and with his
coachman takes his horses for an exercise spin around the boule
vards of the city. Early risers are accustomed to meet Mr. McCor4
with his four or tandem or pairs spinning to the suburbs at Bun
rise. Mr. McCord's coachman Is an Englishman who insists that
every rig and harness must be thoroughly cleaned immediately after
use. When it is considered that it takes about two hours to clean
a heavy park harness, it is seen that there is plenty of work around
a stable in which the horses are used as much as are Mr. McCord's.
Mr. McCord is a thorough sportsman and although he possessed
one of the most complete stables in the west before the Omaha Horse
show, still that Omaha might be well represented for that event. He
show it is said he spent $15,000 in preparation for that event. He
was repaid by the prizes won and by the plaudits of the people, who
seemed to appreciate his efforts in giving Omaha the best stable of
horses and equipages in the west. No effort nor expense is spared
by Mr. McCord in providing every comfort possible for his grooms
and horsemen. .
The old-fashioned silver combination
card case and purse with the long wrist chain,
such as our grandmothers used to carry, is
one of the very smartest things shown in this
line. They are either engraved or etched
with a monogram, Initial or some design.
Some handsome combination card cases and
purses in mocha and soft leather, with
mountings of gold and silver, are also being
shown. The metal bags In gold and tilver
are among the wlll-be-as-good this year as
they were last
