News And Stories

| -
Twenty-six horses started in the
Melbourne c,,p race on November 2,
and the odds figured against them
by bookmakers ranged from 4 to 1
to 200 to 4. The first named price
was laid against the favorite, Prince
Foote. and AZ he won easily by
three lengths. q large amount of
cash must have found its way into
the pockets of the public.
: Aberdeen, against whom odds of
| 100 to I were laid. finished In third
place, being only q head behind the
second horse, Alawa.
The race was, of course, run in
Melbourne, the capital Of the state
of Victoria. It would be as sensi-

the owner of the gee gee that he
would get $50, 900 II his rorse won,
they only had 100000 to draw for
themselves. That amount was sur-

Edward Clausen, for years con nected with the Northern Commercial company in Fairbanks, who has just arrived from that camp, says that the outlook for the mining industry in the Panama valley for the coming season was never brighter.
 "All we ask up there this year is rain," he said. "We have every thing else. If it rains the cleanup in the Panama will not only surprise the people out here but will, by the riches put into the hands of the min ing men, result in opening of new creeks and districts. Placer men are working to get out all the dirt they can. The clcan-ups before I left were satisfactory.

The value of the ore, as run through the mills, is generally kept secret. Were it not for the fact that after each one of those runs there is redoubled effort on the part of the owners, one might be led to believe the ore was so poor its value it not worth mentioning.
