GREAT HORSE DIES The sudden death of Phar Lap, the famous Aus- | tralian race horse, is a matter for sincere regret wherever there is love for horses. This unbeaten horse came from the South Seas to meet America’s great racers.

His winnings in his short career were among the largest ever earned on’ the turf. They were exceeded only by those of Sun Beau, the great American horse who made a prilliant record last year after running fourth in the Agua Caliente handicap in March. He was valued at $500,000.
