NEITHER WALL OF THE
HALIFAX SHOWING
SECOND SHIPMENT is ABOUT
READY TO GO OUT FROM THIS
PROMISING DISCOVERY

Steady progress is being made in
sinking the Halifax winze from the
1900 level Mr. Sherwin is having
six feet removed all of which is ore
of excellent grade Neither wall is
now in sight. The work on the drift
is progressing, but the turn has not
yet been made to reach the ore. The
showing is pronounced better than
at any time since the strike was
made, but the people in charge and
the miners are loath to make state
ments, fearing that they might incite
movement in the stock that later
would not prove to have been justified,
Ia other words, the intent is to get
the property well opened up and as
sured of permanency before making
any positive statements.
The first shipment, ii is understood
/ gave excellent returns. Another is
about ready and will probably be senl
\ to mill tomorrow or Wednesday. NJ
4 work is now being done toward driy
ing for air connection, but it vii
doubtless be resumed, as soon as al
fairs are shaped around at the scene
of the strike.

BUCKEYE-BELMONT IN
FAIR APPEARING ROCK
DRIFT Will BE RUN EASTERLY TO
PICK UP HALIFAX VEIN IF
1T CROSSES LINE

Developments in the Buckeye-Bel-
mont are being viewed with interest
in view of the strike that was made
in the Halifax recently, at point so
near the Buckeye line that the drills
can be heard working.
The latter property has recently
been concentrating efforts on the 900
foot level and is working in a well
defined vein carrying low values. 1t
is the theory of General Manager Bal
liet that the 1900 level is too low to
catch the Halifax vein on its depth,
but by continuing the drift it may get
it on the trend, as the Buckeye has
fully a thousand feet more to run on
the Halifax sideline before getting out
of its territory.
One of the most encouraging deyel
opments of the past few days is the
finding of spar and quartz in the vein
which carries bronze pyrites, as well
as speeks Of black and blue sulphides
evidencing the enrichment of the rock
and the approach to commercial val
ues. The Buckeye has been in opera
ton for a number of years and has
not drawn cent out Of the city, the
stock not being listed, but being vol
unfairly assessed by its owners II

OF the Academy of Fine Arts of Venice
and known for his History OF Sculp-
ture,' was the first to write a COM
plete historical account Of the four
horses, lie valiantly endeavored to
show that the horses We're cast in
Nero's time. but 1t is believed that he,
like other writer's. was Influenced by
the fact that quadrigas appeared on
Roman coins.
When, after standing for six CEN
turtles On the Basilica of ST. Marks, the
horses were hauled down by the Gallo
invader and removed on the order Of
Napoleon To Paris, they were placed
on ON pilasters before the palace Of
the T1Hertes. Napoleon, in his dream
Of assuming the dignities as we'll us
the powers of a Roman Emperor, CON-
ceived the idea Of having an image OF
himssI S"ving q chariot 10 which the
four horses should be hltched. He
even gave the order for the work. and
the horses were raised on the arch OF
the Tuileries. But before the group
could he completed with his W statue
the fabric OF his glories crumpled
The horses were Immediately started
on their journey back to Venice, where
they arrived On June 10. 1919. the
eighteenth anniversary of the day on
which they had been carried off by the
French, The horses were drawn To the

time.
Another reason for the belief that
the four horses are Greek is that they
were harnessed for triumph and were
adorned with trappinGs such as
crescents, lions claws. of gilt or gold.
hanging from their collars. Similar
trappings adorn the horses of the
Roman triumphal arches, hut the
custom was derived by the Romans
from the Greeks.
The clue to the mystery has also
been sought in the close clipped
name Of the horses. A German
writer, j, Seitz. who saw the horses In
Paris, concluded that the representa-
tion of the names AS close clipped was
due Ia the artists inability to repre-
sent them otherwise, Seitz therefore
decided that Lysippus, IL native of
Sicyon, renowned for his works in
bronze in the last half of the fourth
century, b. c., did not model the
horses. He thought they might have
been modelled by Polydetus or Myro.
Seitz's theory was exploded. how
ever. when it was shown that the
horses of the Parthenon. sacred to the
virgin goddess Athena. all had their
names clipped close to the neck.
Therefore, there Is no doubt that the
custom prevailed in Greece during the
best period. 1t was a custom seldom
followed by the Romans.

and placed 1t on the house hear the
corner. 1t was later removed, but
nothing Is said Of what finally became
OF II.
Another writer, Francesca Sanso-
vino, gives this hypothesis; Marine
Zeno. the first Latin Governor of Con-
stantinople after its fall in l20l. sent
the horses to Venice along with vari-
Gus slabs and marbles. For some rea-
son not explained the horses were
placed In the arsenal when they ar
rived in Venice. In such a place they
were In danger OF being broken up,
and as their singular beauty finally
attracted attention they were brought
forth from their hiding place and
placed on the Basilica OF st. Marks.
There Is no authenticity for this
supposition. however, for it Is con
sidered a very singular thing that
while the horses were sent to Constan-
tinople with valuable slabs and mar
bles they were cast into an arsenal
and not considered valuable for some
time. The chances are that S~ansovino
also saw the horses depicted on Ro-
man coins and concluded that they
were taken to Constantinople and
later to Venice. The writer, however,
admits his own doubts on this sub
ject.

the mystery OF the origin Of the
horses. Three assayers, Darcet Of
