THE COWBOY TOURNAMENT
A Good Programme at the Park Yes.
 terday Afternoon.

The first installment of Jack CHbson's cowboy tournament at East Lake park came off yesterday and was entirely satisfac ctcry. There was a large at tendance and all were well pleased with the performance. There will be a similar programme today and to- morrow, and tomorrow the winner of the steer tying will be announced.
 Yesterday afternoons programme opened by the relay race in which Bud Burtis, Jim Collins and Oscar Roberts participated. Roberts has a reputatlofa in this sport as well as steer tying but he failed to uphold it yesterday and was the last to come in on the final round The race was three times around the arena. changing saddles and blankets twice cash time. Colnns was easily first with Burtis close second. they winning the money $19 and S1O respectively.
 The second event was the all import ant one of the day the steer tying. Nine contestants were entered in yes terday's contest and while no records were broken, it was an interesting performance and one that held the close attention of rAse grand stand. The steers were a wild lot, imported from Texas and the fact that some of them were almost equal to race horses Tn swiftness is perhaps responsible for the low records made.
 Geo Sears was the first to take hand He missed his first throw but was more successful with the second and had his steer tied at the end of l minute and % seconds.
 Oscar Roberts followed and while making only a fair record made one rNf ffl7rad a was 52 If seconds.
 Harry RuImister of Mesa had a par ticularly swift steer and one that rel fused to fall He finally landed after the end of a minute and 45 seconds.
 Johnnie Wright missed his first throw but the second landed and he tied in minute and ? 1-2 seconds. His horse did pretty work and was in great measure responsible for the time made
 Wallace Joslin furnished the amuse- Inent of the day for the grand stand but it came near being serious for both he and his horse. He missed four throws in succession but refused to give up and finally captured his steer ana downed him. The steer got up on him' however, and showed fight. Joslin got cut of reach but the horse caught the full force of a run from the steer but fortunately was ln no NlSe IhJuiSu'
 Frank Flores of Tempe played in hard luck He missed the first two throws, his time being 1 min. 27 seconds.
 Bill Ferris did nice work and made q lovely throw His steer very accomo- datingly laid still and he made the tie in $ and 3-4 seconds.
 Frak Burris missed the first two throws entirely ard on the third only caught the steer by one horn. He kept at it and did the stunt to finish in 2 min. and 13 seconds.
 Jim Collins missed the first, second and third threw and at last gave it up as a bad job and made no time.
 Ramon Ortega had contracted to throw a steer on the run without the aid of d rope of any kind and he full filed his contract to the letter. Mr. Ortega IS an old man of nearly 50 years

A SPLENDID PERFORMANCE
Pleased Audience Witnessed the I'm
 questionable Musical Comedy.

"The Silver Slipper" company held forth at the Doris the lter last night and the performance vas all that IL was advertised to be, satisfactory Tn every respect to the patrons of the house. But 'it was not at all satisfac- tory to the company or the manage ment. for there were too many empty seats. The audience would have been considered a good one for the average road company, but an attraction like ''The Silver Slipper should have filled every seat, and then some. .,~
 The performance, of course, was mainly music and dancing both of which were excellent. The cham pagne dance. which has made a hit everywhere, mec with the same sort of a reception in Phoenix, for those who saw it were people who really like a good show and who are willing to go even on Christmas eve. The cham pagne girls were recalled until encores ceased to be funny for them. In this respect it should be said that the company was not stingy with its en- cores. and responded courteously to nearly every demand, even though the demands were frequent.
 The principal feature of the per- formance was the comedian, who kept the house in a roar of laughter when ever he held the stage, and than whom it is likely no better e, CT visited Phoe- nix The ladies who played the prin- cipal parts are all actresses of talent, as well as beautiful singers, and the choruses, of course, were charming and gorgeously attirea.

ANOTHER ARIZONA BEDROOM

o. My Arizona bedroom
 Is d wagon painted red, There's a wheel at every corner
 Aaa some canvas overhead, It air't as large as ''all outdoors
 There's only room for one, So to have the winds from heaven"
 Would be no kind of fun. And neither do I fancy
 The desert for a floor, A shallin' hands with lizards
 An centIpedes galore, An ''lnidnight tides" nor "owI hOots' Jns' don't appeal to me, An "Ar=csies' an such like
 I'd rather Jet eIn be. For my Arizona bedroom
 is away in Moki-land, Where if you yawn when sleepin'
 Yer mouth gets full O sand An it wouldn't do to publish
 The things that's sometimes said In my Arizona bedroom
 W'ats a wagon painted red. An if I'm still in dreamland
 W 'en it's daylight-by the clock Some prowlinS Moki burro
 Will wake me with a shock, An he'll bray in high falsetto
 As I sh-, rocks at his head In my Arizona bedroom
 W'ats a wagon painted red. But soon the sun comes risin'
 So softly yet so bright, An somcthin' seems to tell me
 That I've an appetite. So turns about an wriggles
 From off my swingin' bed Tn my Arizona bedroom
 W'ats a wagon painted red.

MUST rule
IN SAN DOMINGO
Assistant Secretary LOOMS to In
vestigate Necessity of Annex
alton for Securing Peace.
New York Sun Special Service.


Washington, Feb. 22.-Assistant
Secretary Of State LOOMS is shortly
to leave for San Domingo to make a
personal inquiry into conditions there.
Advices We're received at the state and
navy departments that Feb. II the
steamship New York of the Clyde line
had been fired upon at Pagota by the
insurgents while being toWed up the
river by a launch Of the cruiser New
ark.
The insurgent camp was shelled by
the Newark, which, with the Column
bia, landed a party Of marines. The
marines charged the insurgents and
routed them, driving them into the
woods. Several pieces of insurgent
artillery were captured.
No immediate action will be taken
by this government in regard to the
frequent stoppages and interference
with American vessels. Secretary Hay
holds both the government and insur-
rectionary forces responsible for the
Outrages.
President Frames Indictment.
President Roosevelt is practically
! framing an Indictment against the re-
public of San Domingo, and when he
! thinks he has case, will take the
| most vigorous steps to secure repara-
| ton for the irritating annoyance OF
| the past few months.
| It is likely that the republic of San
| Domingo will be obliged to cede to the
| United States SANTANA bay as a, coaling
| station, and once such a station is es-
tablished, the United States will police
| the republic. Foreign governments
claim that because of the Monroe doc
/ trine, the United States is pledged to
| maintain order in the republic Of San
Domingo.
Republic is Bankrupt.
The claims against the republic Of
San Domingo growing out of the latest
series of revolutions are more than
enough to bankrupt the country,
which is in a deplorable condition.
! Officials of the state and navy de-
partments believe the dispatches an
nouncing the Smelling Of the insurgents
at Duarte by the cruisers Solumbia
and Hartford refer to the same en-
gagement as that reported by Minister
/ Powell.
4 The United States is unwilling to
intervene at the present time because
it has it's hands full on the isthmus.
; The commercial interest of the United
States in San Domingo is extremely
small. There would be little chance
bof intervention by the United States
IF it were not for the few Europeans
on the island.
Under the general application of the
| monroe uOClIlUe, Tie Onlleu IoldlSS
would resent any attempt by a Eu-
ropean nation to establish protec-
+ torate over the West Indian islands,
. If the rioting and bloodshed con-
tinue, and if the destruction of for
eign property assumes still larger pro-
portions, it may become absolutely
necessary for the United States to in
!, tervene with force.
! This means practically, if not theo'
= retically, the government of the re,
:. public of San Domingo by a nava
: force, directed by United States Off
GERS, for the purpose Of securing abb
= solute peace.

From The Journal Bureau, Colorado Building,

Washington, Feb. 22.-Officials of
the interior department and general
land office are already considering
plans for the opening Of the Rosebud
reservation in Gregory county, South
Dakota, and have practically deter

years ago.
Under this plan, there will be a
period Of registration lasting thirty or
forty days prior to the opening, dur
ing which each applicant will be re-.
he is qualified to make homestead en-
try and actually desires to do so as a
means Of procuring a home.
If his proof is satisfactory he Will be
registered as a qualified applicant and
given a certificate to that effect, and
he will draw a number which will de-
termine the order in which he will be
permitted at the opening, to make a
selection of land.
Registration certificates will not be
transferable. Applicants will be re-
quired to register in person, except
honorably discharged soldiers, and the
drawing will be under the supervision
Draw Number of Choice.
No advantage will be obtained by
being the first to register, and all will
have an equal chance Of drawing the
| first number. If Nos. 1, 3 and 5 are
| drawn and Nos. 2 and 4 remain in the
| box the order of selection at the open.
| ing will be 1, and 5, as if there were

| each day after the opening-as for~in
stance: On the first day those who
hold numbers from to 800 inclusive
on the second day those who hole
numbers from 301 to 600 inclusive
| and SO on. He who draws No. 5000
will know that his right of selection
| must be exercised on the tenth day
| and that it is not necessary for hin
to be present until then.
Homesteads and Town Lots.
| No one will be permitted to effect {
| settlement until after he has selected
his land and made entry. It will no
be possible to have more than ont
I claimant for the same tract, ant
| every claimant, after making selection
and entry, will have the full assurance
that if he honestly complies with thu
i homestead law he will receive full
I title to the land.
Lands in the Rosebud reservation
can be taken only under the home
stead and the town-site law. The for
mer will be the law Of extensive ap
plication, while the latter will, becaus
of a recent act of congress-, not Gu
much of a figure.
