copper, the values being principally in
copper. On the Iron King claim of the
Tonopah Ora company Mr.. Labeta has
opened up fine ledge of carbonates
and silver that will run over 500 ounces
to the ton. This property lies between
the Azurite and Tonopah-Monarch
groups and is one Of great promise.
Will G. Nebeker, the well-known
mining expert, has returned from a
weeks trip to Tonopah and Lone Noun
tain. He went from here specially to
make an examination of the Nevada
Alpine property, presumably in the in
terests of some Of the smelters, but on
that question he was silent.
81 will say, however, that the prop
erty is one of the cleanest-cut, high
grade shipping propositions ever saw,
declared Mr.. Nebeker. There is devel-
oped from two to four feet of ore in a
ledge so strong and regular that there
is no room for waste, that will average
from $l25 to $40 per ton, net, after
paying the outrageously high transpor-
tation rates from mine to smelter. Sew
eral thousand tons of this ore are
already blocked out and there is every
evidence of the ores improvement, as
the fissure is being followed down al
an easy dip in the direction of the big
contact ledge that crops further up the
mountain, and which, apparently, dips
toward the fissure. To reach the con
tact the fissure will have to be FOLLOWED
, down for 400 or 800 feet yet, and fee

cage counterbalanced as is the present
intention.
When this equipment is in operation,
in connection with the 60 foot gallows
frame and double deck cages already
ordered, the Montana -Tonopah company
will have hosting plant that will
handle its greatly increased output with
ease, and will be a credit to the camp
and will serve as model and pattern
for other similar plants in this and our
neighboring camps.
The post brakes and friction clutches
viii be independently operated by air
Tor steam) cylinders, controlled from
the engineers platform, and so ar
ranged that should any accident happen
to the pressure piping the brakes will
set automatically, thus protecting the
cages from dropping if the clutches
happened to be thrown out at the time
of such accident to the pipes.
The drums are to be fitted with hell
cal-tooth gears and driven by bronze
pinions. The drums and the gears will
be proportioned to give a speed of
hosting of 1000 feet per minute and at
this speed the hoist will lift an unbal-
anced load Of 5000 pounds.
1t is the intention to connect the COM
pressor to the two large receiver-pres-
sure tanks and to the two so h. p. boil
ers already in place, using the latter as
additional storage reservoirs, and from
: this system make connection to the
l'hoisting engine in such way that the
hoist may be operated either by com
o pressed air, using the boilers, as men
y toned above, or by steam with th,

L will enable the company to make thor

John A. Kirby, general manager of

by Herald man while in Salt Lake
last week, to whom he expressed him
self as follows:
Mr.. Kirby stated. however, that the
.Montana-T -Tonopah was looking fine and
improving all the time. Regarding his
recent visits to Lone Mountain and the
good reports he was credited with hav-
ing made concerning that district. Mr.
Kirby stated that it was one Of the
best sections for the investment of
capital of which he knew.
1T is not to be expected that all
prospects there will make mines, said
Mr.. Kirby, ''but believe that several
big producers viii be credited to the
district just as soon as it is possible to
get capital sufficiently interested that
developments can be carried out on a
scale commensurate with the merits of
the properties. Iconsider the Anaconda
Tonopah property, j. w. Langley s
promotion, most promising prospect.
Good ore bodies are being developed
and one of these days, after the mine
has been properly opened, you will hear

Mr. Kirby said that he would like tc
remain over and spend Thanksgiving al

he could not do so.

Harry Schwanzer came in from the
Nevada Copper Queen mine near Austin
Thursday night and says that the FIVE
men at work are extracting fine ship
ping ore every day. This property is
owned by Zeb Kendall and associates
in Tonopah. The shaft is now down
las feet and drifts are being run from
the so and las foot stations. The ledge
on the surface was only six inches wide
but at depth of las feet is nearly Eve
feet in width. The values average
about 55 per ton, and of this it will run
about 20 per cent in copper.

Getaway Day was celebrated at Gravesend
yesterday by the running of The Myrtle, stake

yards. It brought out field of nine. In which
were represented possibly the best platers Of the
year, including the new recruit to the selling
division, Major Daingerfeld. D. C. Johnson's
four-year-old colt Joaquin was so superior to
his company. under the weight scheme and the
conditions of the track that his easy victory
robbed the contest of much Of the interest it
might otherwise have possessed. The form

there was lively speculation William Lake

HISTORY OF THE RACE.
The Classic Fixtures Won bg Stars
of the Turf.

Ever since that June day in 1884 when General
Monroe the inaugural running of the Suburban
Handicap at Sheepshead Bay, defeating War Eagle,
Jack OF Hearts and big field. the Suburban has
ranked the greatest fixture Of the Coney Island
Jockey Clubs calendar. unless the FUturity be
cepted. The is a handicap for three-year-olds
and upward and the distance is one and one-quar-
ter miles. Some famous thoroughbredS in
cuded in the list its winners and there are also
Instances in which it has been by horses that
never did anything worthy of a real stake horse
before after
In the field which General Monroe beat were
George Kinney and Barnes. the former with 132
pounds up and the latter with 131 pounds. The
former inpost is the greatest ever assigned to e.
Suburban starter. The pair. coupled In the bet
ting were hot favorites. but did not finish in the
first three.
In the following year Pierre Isorillard's imported
Pontiac won the handicap from Richmond and
Rataplan. but the coup which was expected to be
made with the winner never came as there was
no betting allowed on the local tracks that year.
The great old gelding Raceland. which was sold
by the master of Runnymede yearlins when
It was found he had developed SPAWN beat his
field homo in the Suburban Of 1885, taking the meas
ure of Terra Gotta, the best horse the West could
send out TO beat the gelding. Mr.. Belmont had
bought him with other view than to win the
Suburban but had the track not been soft and
sloppy a condition In his favor, 1t IS question
whether Terra Gotta would not have beaten him
Raceland was by Billet, out Of Caramel, and as
Hardy Durham, who registered him, gave his pedi-
gree as Billet, out Of Calomel. there was protest
made but the stewards Of the Jockey Club decided
that Mr. Durham was lucky if he didn't know the
difference between Calomel and Caramel ana ols-
missed the complaint. -
The renewal, which ]. B. Haggin's Salvator won
in the following year from Cassius and Ienny,
brought about the famous match when SalValor
won from the swayback Of Rayon dor Cas-
sius which beat Tenny in the handicap; was not
Thought to have q chance and was one or the OUT
siders. August Belmont's crimson JACKET was az
again carried to victory in 1901. when henry OF
Navarro beat The Commoner and CLIFFORD IN the
fast time of 2:O7. Gold Heels won 1t year later
from Pentecost and the famous rogue Blues.
In 1908 the Suburban one in the br1lnant nse
