 continuation of the success of the first notwithstanding the interference of the storm. The parade was divested only of the trades display feature of the first day, but there was the ladies' band, the painted Indians, the old stage coach 1.-the, active cowboys and the never-fail- ing contingent made up of the small boy and the burro.
 The procession formed at the Dublin corral at ? o'clock and proceeded to the park followed by crowd smaller per- haps than that which witnessed the initial performance, but sufficiently large to be gratifying to the manage ment.
 There was, as had been announced, a material change of program. The feats began with an exhibition of trick pony riding by 14-year,old Oscar Scott. The pony wasn't as big as @ horse; neither was the rider as big as a full-grown cow boy, but taking the comparative size of boy and pony into consideration, the per formance was fully as creditable as the expert riding of the cowboys the day before. ira
 The COW boy exercise by Dink Mead ows, George Felton and Arizona Charlie was particularly excellent.
 The skill shown in the lassoing of wild horses is said to have been the most skillful exhibition of the kind ever witnessed in the valley, and Juan Tornado displayed superiority in the handling and riding, and ultimate sub- lection, of the most unregenerate broncho of the lot.
 A pony race by the Scott children was an interesting feature of the after noon.
 The Roman chariot race was, if possi- ble, more exciting than on the day be- fore. Horses and drivers appeared in better form. The pace was wilder and more reckless. The Roman chariot race in this case was no. hippodrome, but was driven for blood, and it vas foregone conclusion only that the swifter team would come in first. The team driven by Miss Higgins was the winner.
 A character which had been over looked in making up yesterdays pro- gram was bull pup but he was there just the same as if he had not been forgotten by MT. Gore. He entered himself in the chariot race and was beginning to make things interesting for one of the drivers when he felt the tightening of lariat about his neck. The other end was in the hands of that Knight of the Riata, Geo. Felton.
 The steer tying contest was very .creditable performance. The time made by the participants was as follows: M Meadows, l minute, 3S seconds; Rit. Henderson, 1 minute, 2S seconds; Oscar Felton, 2 minutes, 20 seconds. George Felton was also in the contest, but was handicapped by a steer which was there for business rather than amusement and dead next to him. self In scr1mmage with cowboys. A broken rope set him at liberty and be- fore he could be roped again there was an improvised bull fight in which Eel ton narrowly missed connection with the infuriated animals horns. No &C., count was taken of the record.
 The boys burro race closed the events of the day. The contestants were Ernest Stroud and Forrest Richmond. The race was humorous rather than ex- citing and was won by young Stroud.
 The principal feature this afternoon will be the ladies' hurdle race. The riders will be Miss Higgins, Mss Melborne and Miss Hamilton The program will be otherwise changed and enlarged. During the day number of cabins will be erected on the grounds and tonight will occur for the first time the realistic reproduction of the Indian midnight attack upon an isolated set clement. The rain of yesterday has left the ground in excellent condition for an excellent display this afternoon. Today will be children's day. Children will
