HEAVY BETTING ALL DAY
Large Piles of Money Turned
Over to the Shortenders.
MAllAKWA'S GRAND RUN
Q Colt Takes the Deer Lodge
stake-A Succession of Dumps Which
Cause q Sharp Pain to Seize the
Big Spectators.

The splendid card yesterday drew I,
the track a brilliant crowd of race en-
thusiasts and about 1000 witnessed /:
programme of excellent sport. For bis
betting the day broke the record fol
the Butte and Anaconda meetings
Two hundred and s275 pools were the or
der in the hurdle n last races, and in
both of them painful dumps occurred,
short horses winning the money. In
some of the races two and three horses
had the call for favoritism-and that
made the speculation lively, the tai
ented division dividing up into factions
and playing against each other like
dead game sports, while the nibblers
squeezed in and carried off most of the
money. There were dumps to burn,
and many an ache was carried home
last night.
Mallakwa, H. L. Franks gallant colt,
captured the big prize of the day, the
$l,0O0 Deer Lodge stake. The colt ruled
favorite, while T. G.. Ferguson's Sam
McKeever vas second choice. and
Byrnes & Co.'S Hemera had strong
backing at smaller figures. 1t was a
good race and everybody will say that,
even IL many did lose big money on it,.
The lay opened with a mile dash, and
the fact that such an event was to open
the day drew a big crowd early. Butte
sent down the usual large delegation
and he game progressed with amino
ton and coin for four hours. The
weather was inclined to be bad. but
only a light shower came when a
drenching, soaking rain was expected.
The sun had nothing to do with the
plsy-he was behind clouds all the
afternoon. The results were as fol-
lows:
One MiIe-Daylight.
A crowd of $500 saw the first race. a
mile dash, n Masoero, the favorite
finished last, pulled up, but a strong
second choice took the purse and the
talent were not completely disorgan-
ized. Open Doors was scratched. A
struggling start ave Miss Remsen the
lead. which IL kept to the half, Daylight
