The fourth week Of the races has been
successful from every point of view. h
attendance large on every day, specu-
lation brisk and the weather so far
above the average that for decency IL
has been beyond comparison with that
of any July weather experienced by the
oldest race horse pioneer in the state.
1t has been the banner week of the
meeting. Interest in the races has in
creased with each succeeding week I'M
til now il has assumed proportions APP
preaching intensity. which fact shows
that while the people do not warm up
to an occasion on the first day, once
thoroughly heated, they stay hot for a
long time. They will probably no. cool
off before snow flies again, fer as soon
as the races close In Butte. the scene
will be laid in Anaconda. and when
the meeting closes there, politics and
candidates will appear to keep things
warm until frost comes.
The management has arranged a
most acceptable programme for the
coming week, when nearly S14 600 in
purses and stakes will be hung up. The

morrow. This is for 2 and 3-year-olds
