HORSES FOR VICTORIA
(By Telegraph.) (Special to "The Evening Post.")
DUNEDIN,
This Day.
When it became known in Australia that Sir. Alan Cambridge intended holding a dispersal sale of all his stock, including hia thoroughbreds, Mr. A. K. Barlow of Victoria, cabled an offer for Dioxide and the Solferino—Raid yearling, and asked, if the offer was accepted, to ship the horses by the Maheno, which sailed on Saturday.
Mr. Barlow is the owner of The Wenaum and Ransack, half-brothers respectively to Dioxide'and the yearling, and as they are two exceptionally good ones, he was naturally anxious to get hold of their younger relatives. Mr. Cambridge accepted the offer, and the pair were snipped as requested.
Dioxide has already shown that sLe can gallop fast, and when she becomes acclimatised should do well in Victoria. The yearling is one of the best-looking of Solferino a stock at his age, and, coming from a good mare like Raid, should do well. The pair, are decidedly food looking, and were sent away ini.Bplendid condition.
First aid for coughs, colds, and influenza, Woods' Great Peppermint Cure. —Advt.
