Under cloudy skies and with slight

day afternoon before an audience
which nearly filled the grandstand. II
was not the largest crowd ever in
attendance at these races. but 1t was
enthusiastic and enjoyed the sport to
the fullest.
BY far the prettiest race of the af-
ternoon was the 2:1s pace. While there
were but four starters. the finish OF
each of the three heats was spec
tacular. the horses coming in under
the whip, and it being anybody's race

CARBONATE MILL
SEEMS ASSURED
Boston Expert Finds Beaver
Mine Showing Highly
Satisfactory.

That the Beaver Carbonate Mining
company is in position to be quickly
financed for the mill of which it is in
urgent need, is indicated by the report
wired east yesterday by Charles A.
HaWley, expert bond buyer of Boston,
who was sent here by Charles A. Stone
ham & Co to examine the mine, that
he might determine the status of its
securities.
Mr.. Hawley visited the mine over
Sunday, in company with Manager
Snyder, and upon his return to this city
yesterday he said that there could be
no question but that the financing Of
the milling project would be pushed
through without delay. The telegram
he sent to c. o. EIlingwOod, of Boston,
said:
Personal inspection of the Beaver
isfactoTy conditions. The new ore body
in the east drift, on the 7OO-fOGt level,
has been opened 50 feet in length du-
ring the last month. It shows shipping
ore values of 500 a ton. The entire
face continues to show the same rich
quality of ore. A raise of 20 feet re-
veals no change
The ore shoot of which Mr.. HaWley
speaks is the third shoot opened by the
east drift, the others being large bodies
of milling ore. No prosecuting has
been done to determine the full extent
Of the high-grade shoot. No doubt is
entertained that it is an entirely new
shoot for the property, for the reason
that it lies between the ore bodies
which were mined in the early days.

RICH GALENA ORE
IN HALEY MINE
Operating Ledge on 800 Level
Assures Heavy Output
From Comet.

In a crosscut on the 300-foot level of the
Comet mine, two miles from HALEY, Ida.
had been opened a few days ago four
feet of solid galena ore which is said to
run better than 500 a ton Only one wall
of the ore body had been exposed.
1t is the sixth face Of ore of like grade
opened in the mine, and it demonstrates
that the ore body, which has been cut in
all of the upper levels, extends to the
surface, giving 300 feet Of backs
All of the workings being through tun-
nels, no hosting is necessary, and the
property is favOrably situated for OpeT-
ating cheapy on a large scale 1t is
likely that 100 men will be employed as
soon as the necessary buildings can be
constructed
The Comet is one of a group Of claims
sold about six weeks ago by J. George
ArkOOsh to a Chicago syndicate headed by
Robert T. Tustin. the managing owner
of the MuldoOn and the Mutual mining
companies.
Mr. Tustin is in Chicago getting the af-
fairs of his company into form for eff
fective work. He is expected to arrive
in HALEY within a couple of weeks, pre-
pared to increase the working force and
to inaugurate production.

RECOVERING LODE
REEVES HAMMOCK
More Energetic Work Follows
Rich Strike in Mayer
Reber Lease.
Especial to The Neutrality-suspicious.

BannOck, New, Feb. The great rich
ledge discovered in the Limelite lode last
September has been struck by the Mayer
Reber Leasing company in a drift off a
tunnel 100 feet underground An upraise
is now being run to connect this com
pany shaft, and next the Nevada-Omaha
company, owning the Limeite, will con
tnue the Mayer-Reber shaft, a contract
for the first 200 feet having been let, to be
dropped from the tunnel level.
The work of the Mayer-Reber company
developed horse which was the OBJ
struction that cut off the ledge in the
NeVada-Omaha COmpany's shaft. On each
size of this horse, for two and three feet
alongside of it, the paintings from high
~ decomposed vein matter show from
$50 TO $500 ton, and the entire width of

Of predictions made several months ago
by two noted experts who paid this camD
a visit. Both declared that the forma-
ton was one that promised extensive gold
production, that the quartz was very fer

extensive ore bodies. TO realize part
