The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1891-12-21

Next to winning n fortune Mt playing the
races, the ordinary 'regulnt' at the winter
race-trackg takes more pleasure in finding
out the details OF how he come to lose his
original investment than anything else on
earth, says tho New York correspondent of
the st. Louis Republic. To him the inside
facts Of a lob" are as n cup of water to a
famiahed native OF the desert. The veterans

out of thousands of dollars for several days.
The case in point is that of the horse Gyda,
who won at the hilltop track on Thursday

to a stable ut Gloucester. He relates that
some two years previously he was in the

who raced horses for amusement at the
county fairs near his home. He had a mare
who could give pounds away to Barrister or
to the picturesque King Idle as a sulker.
