The appearance of the Bellevue
Driving Park Association is at the
present time an enlivening one. A
grand stand is being erected, capa-
BILE of seating $50 people in COM
Portable chairs, and the structure is
being built in such a manner that
no fear need be entertained for the
individual safety of anyone occu-
plying it. A judges and music
stand are also being built, while
another gang of busy carpenters
are also hard at work completing
the additional stables demanded
for the extra number of horses that
are to be present during the
meeting. On Wednesday five car
loads of horses arrived from Mon
tana and the flyers from Colorado,
Utah and Oregon will all be on the
ground to take part in the contests
for the various purses. The at
tendance promises to be even
greater than anticipated, the all
absorbing topic being the races.
Even the conventions receive sec
ondary consideration. The Asso-
citation has worked hard to make
it's first meeting great success,
and the indications are that the la
Dor has not been in vain. Parties
from Ketchum visiting the races
can do SO and return the same day,
as a special train will be run for
their convenience. This town will
be we'll represented at Bellevue
during the coming week.

A correspondent to the Boise
c,,,esman, writing under date of
August 3Oth, gives the following
PARTICULARS of the destruction by
sro Of the Odd Fellows Hall at
plscerville, Boise county;
Between three and four o'clock
,bis afternoon the Odd Fellows
Hall, in the upper part of town,
WAC discovered to be on fire. 1t
was entirely consumed, together
With a small barn in the back part
of an adjoining lot, belonging to
Mr. Tucker. The fire was started
by children, with matches, near
me stairs under the lodge rooms.
No one could enter, and nothing
was saved. The regalia and be-
lodgings OF the Good 1emplars,
who met in the hall, went with the
rest.
The Hall was built by the Odd
Fellows some seven or eight years
sgo and was a large two-story
building, the upper story used by
the lodge being finely finished and
handsomely furnished, while the
lower story was unoccupied and
unfinished. In all, the loss is esti-
mated at between three and four
thousand dollars. a serious loss,
but expressions of thankfulness
are heard on every side that it is
not worse, or a large portion of the
town must have been destroyed.

The Secretary of the Interior is
seeking to procure for statistical
purposes all the information posi-
bic regarding the agricultural pro-
ducts, the number of horses, sheep
and other domestic animals in Ida
no Territory. With this end in
view, Governor Stevenson proposes
70 issue circulars to the different
County Assessors requesting such
Information to be furnished,
and he is in hopes that his request
will be responded to as fully as
possible 1t is claimed that the
assessment rolls do not give a fair
showing of this class of property
and 1t is not just to the Territory
that such is the case. A goodly
portion of the Territory is well
adapted to agricultural pursuits
and the raising of fruits, and thou
sands of acres afford the finest pas
'urage In the west for the raising Of
horses and cattle. If the proper
effort Is made Idaho can make a
good showing now, and each year
Will add greatly to the increase and
worth of these pursuits. The
amount of gold and silver is also
very important matter, and there
should be proper remedy applied
~ aS TO ensure the procurement of
1ne most accurate information in
this respect.

Reinforced with DR.. w. F. Car.

w. w. Cole, whose fame as an
amusement purveyor is as wide
as the continent itself, has per-
fected all the necessary arrange
ments for the appearance of his
great tented aggregation in HALEY,
Saturday, September 18th. Mr.. Cole
has long been held in high esteem
in this community as progressive,
liberal manager, and. as his organ
ization for this season is generally
regarded as his most notable
amusement undertaking, the indi-
cations point to gratifying finan-
cial results on the occasion of his
approaching visit. Mr.. Cole is said
to be animated by the sentiment
that "circus chestnuts must 60"
and. with that laudable purpose in
view, he brought his tremendous
resources of wealth, energy and
artistic judgment into requisition
in procuring his arenic attractions
for the present tour. The impor-
tations of European artists have
been very extensive, while the best
Of the American performers have
enlisted under the Cole banner. We
are creditably informed that there
is not a Passes performance among
the seventy distinct acts of the
deliberately varied programme, but
every attraction possesses the
charm of novelty. One of Mr..
Coles just added features is COM
plete reproduction of the hippo
drome carnivals Of ancient Rome.
These races are given with start

unattained in modern times. Forty

ton. Prominently appearing with
DR.. Carver in his mimic scenes of

duced on the great hippodrome

THE ALTURAs GOLD.
A "C0ll for klght'' from New
York Answered.


York Answered.
|
The New York Financial an,
Mining Record, under date of Au
gust 14th, gives a report of the AL
turas Gold Company, copied from
the London Mining Journal, and
commenting on the same, speak,
in very disparaging terms, no
only of the Company, but also O
its manager, Mr.. Bickford Anthony
It labors under the delusion tina
there is no such property in exist
ence, and calls upon its Idaho ex
changes to solve the mystery O
the matter. 1t also states that i
there is gross deception that expo
sure should not be postponed, al
the sooner the real facts are given
the better it will be for the money
interests of Idaho.
The KEYSTONE has endeayored
to ascertain the facts contained in
the grave charges made by its New
York contemporary, and finds the
same to be unwarranted. From
investigations made we find the fol-
lowing to be the facts:
The Alturas Gold Mining Com
pany, limited, is composed of a
number of capitalists who, in seek
ing an investment, purchased what
has been known for years as the
Ida Gilmore mining property, at
Rocky Bar, in this county. Ex-
tensive improvement to the prop
erty has been made and under
contemplation, and we have it
from parties that are in position
to know that the investment made
will prove profitable to the gentle
men making it. Under the per-
sonal management of Mr.. Bickford
Anthony the property is now being
worked. There are immense ore
reserves laid open, which is in
creasing daily by extending the I'd,
Sd and 4th levels east and west on
the vein. The latter averages from
five to fourteen feet in width in
quartz that yields in the two small
mills now running over two ounces
per ton, free gold. Experiments
made and being made both at the
works, and by assays in Colorado
shows that the rock is full of tel
lurium of gold. Samples of tail
ings concentrated by panning yields
in cupelled gold from 40 to $50
ounces per ton. The new 5O-stamp
mill eraser & Chalmers best)
with its attendant ten True Vanner,
will concentrate these tellurides
and sulphurets for shipment. The
new mill is being pushed forward
with all possible speed, and will be
in operation next November, when
the returns will prove a revolution
in the history of mining at Rocky
Bar. Even now the result Of OPP
erations shows two-thirds profits,
as the mine is worked in miner
like fashion, and when the new
mill is in working shape and the
other proposed improvements un-
der Roadway, the Alturas Gold mill
will give to its owners very salts
factory account of itself.
