fearless riders, each state sending
three Of its picked men. A state coll
test in each case will decide who shall
have the honor of representing the
commonwealth at this gathering. and
thus the flower of western rough riders
will participate in the Denver con-
tests.
"The chief thing about this cowboy
tournament" said Mr.. Kuykendall
who is enthusiastically entering in;o
the plan, lis that nothing like it has
ever been held in the West. or any

Hail storm at Lamar.

Lamar, Colo, Aug. 12.-Denvcr
News SpecIal.)-The severest hail
storm that has visited this section in
eleven years descended on Lamar
from the north at $50 p. IN. yesterday,
and left trail of battered trees. ruin
ed gardens and broken window lights
in its path. A heavy rain and terrific
wind accompanied the hail storm, and
the latter added greatly to the damage
wrought.
Fine fruit and shade trees were bro
ken by the wind and the driving hail
tore shingles from roofs and smashed
through heavy screens as though they
were mosquito netting. There is not
whole window light in the north side
OF any dwelling or business house in
Lamar. The hailstones piDd up in
great drifts along fences and bitches.
The whole storm lasted only half an
hour. but in that time the precipitation
amounted to an inch and a half. La
mar seems to have been the center of
the hail storm, as reports received thus
far from the farming districts north,
east and west of town are that the
hail was much lighter and did compar-

foot up several thousand dollars, but

farms and to the range.
