Gift for Presidents Son.

The Wyoming and South Dakota
cowboys who went to the Inauguration
gave a small-sized wild West show be-
fore they left, which was attended by
practically the entire junior popula-
ton of Washington and a large num-
Der of senators.
At the close Of the show the cow
boys selected a handsome bay cow
pony and presented it to Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr., who, with his brothers,
was in evidence at the performance.
Young Theodore rode the horse home
to receive his fathers approval of it
and permission to accept the gift.
The president came out from the eX-
ecutive Offices bareheaded and stood in
the rain while his son rode up and
down to show off his horses gaits.
When he passed by single footing the
president shouted:
Good doings, good doings,' and
gave his assent at once to acceptance
Of the animal by the boy.
In the evening the president invited
all the visiting cowboys to the White
house, where they met Mrs. and Miss
Roosevelt and other members of the
family and several callers.
