BACK FROM a NEW DISTRICT.
Professor kOrty Secures Samples
From a Mysterious Find.

Professor kOrfy Secures Samples
From "a Mysterious Find.
Professor Korty, of l<orty, Mayne &
Co, returned to the city yesterday
morning after spending three days in
the hills east of this city on a pros
pecting trip. Early in the week pros
pector entered the assay office of the
firm and secured some assays, the
lowest of which went $25 in gold. Very
naturally the matter caused some con-
siderable excitement and an expedition
was organized for the purpose of en-
abling certain gentlemen to see the
new gold district. The greatest secrecy
was maintained as to the location of
the strikes in order that the party
might get in ahead and secure all of
the properties. That manner of mys-
terry is still in force and the gentlemen
who have visited the prospects refuse
to discuss the matter. contenting them
selves with the statement that the
properties were all that were rep
resented and that some developments
of an interesting nature would soon
take place.
1t was learned that the new find is
located about seventy miles in an east
erly direction from Salt Lake. The
vein is well defined and on the surface
shows for a width of thirty feet. The
ore is porphyry and the average values
are supposed to be in the neighborhood
of $25. An interested public will await
the outcome of the tests to be made.

most successful ever given in Utah.
This is what Chairman c. r. Savage
said, and so agreed the host Of old

turned home. tired, but light-hearted,

The day was in every way suspicious
and everything, from the pleasant ride
to and from Salt Lake and Utah val
ley, to the programme and speeches at
Pleasant Grove, went off smoothly and
to the perfect satisfaction and enjoy
ment of all. The day, which opened
bright and CHEEKY, continued so
throughout all the exercises and until
the old folks were again safely in the
cars and protected from the light
showers that fell late in the afternoon.
AS is usual in such events, c. r.
Savage, the Inauguration of these out
ings in honor of the aged ones, was
the central figure in the incidents of
the day, and to his untiring efforts was
largely due the genuine success of the
affair. George Goddard. too, whose
presence is always indispensable. on
such occasions, was a conspicuous fig

Just eight days ago the LIGHT
announced to the public that ii
would issue grand Special Edition
containing a complete write-up OF
rather picture Of San Antonio and

has been beyond our expectations,
and nearly 400 of our enterprising
citizens have responded. This
means something beyond the mere
assertion of good will and friendly
feeling of the public towards the
LIGHT. Yes, it means that our
people are allied to the interests OF
their city. 1t means that the con-
fidence reposed in our effort Is great.
We thank the warm hearted
friends and patrons for their earn
est support, believing that we shall
thoroughly merit their apprecia.
ton of our efforts. Fifteen thous-
and copies friends, comprise our
issue. These will be thoroughly
distributed and will have a tenden-
cy to awake the energies of our
people towards building up our
city and county. II you are not
already patron Of the affair re-
member we hope very much to
make you so. Space is rapidly
going, and those who have not
placed their orders had better do sc
at once. 1t is the first Special Edi-
ton ever issued in San Antonio
where rates were so that every
body may have an opportunity o.

Horses Beginning to Arrive-River

Everything is moving along
very nicely for the race meeting OF
the San Antonio Jockey club the
last four days of this month.
Horses are arriving daily to be
entered in the races. William
Ewing arrived from Houston yes.
terday with "Chrysolite" and
"Sweet Child" two OF the fastest
horses in the Texas circuit. Mr..
Ewing expects to winter in San

III. d. Kampmann's "Paola" and

row. Theo. Banks "Princess" is
also expected here tomorrow.
From present indications it seems
that River avenue, which leads to
the Jockey club park, will be torn
up by the time the race meetopens
unless other arrangements are
made in the meantime. The gen
tlemen interested in the race meet
arc uneasy about this matter, and
an effort will be made to have this
work abandoned until after the
races.
