the judges stand. with the Mexican
Fourth Regiment band on the south
side. As the governors and their par
ties entered the boxes the Indian
School band struck up the Star Span
gled Banner and all the people in the
grand stand sprang to their feet with
"a cheer. Hardly had the echoes died
away when the Mexican band started
the Mexican national anthem and
again the grand stand rose and cheer
ed.
The crowd was a most enthusiastic
one and was liberal in its recognition
of special events. In this connection
it is not untimely to make mention Of
the good order that has been main
tanned all week and to compliment
Secretary Truman and his staff who
have labored increasingly and success
fully in the perfection of an organi-
zation that looks after details all the
time. Mr.. Truman has encountered
many difficulties and settled them
harmoniously all round and in a way
that is creditable to him and for the
best interest of the fair. Reference is
made 10 such things as savored of a
gambling nature or an effort to i'm
pose upon the people in any way. and
such incidents as trying to give three
people fifty feet of space each when
there was but a hundred feet for all
of them. Two or three fakirs have
been elected from the ground for ir-
Irregular or suspicious conduct. Yester-

key being chained and evidently not
lrelishing the treatment. This was done
AT the suggestion Of Humane Officer
DIR Richmond, who is keeping an eye
out to see that the dumb visitors are
protected.
Altogether things are moving like
clock work and though hourly irrita-
tions are bound to occur. everything
has so far been settled with the best
lof good feeling to all parties and a
lcrowd could not be handled more sat
lisfactorily. The Arizona fair is one
game where everybody gets protec-
ltion and his moneys worth.
The days program was the most in
iteresting one since Monday and in
some respects it was better than Mon
lday The Indian races were a delight
to all As well as the Indian parade and
lar, referred to in detail elsewhere in
this issue.
DRILLING CONTEST.
The drilling contest that was To
have occurred in the forenoon was de-
llayed by the non-arrival Of some con-
testants. In the afternoon the single
handed drilling match took place on
1.-THE infield. opposite the grand stand
under the supervision of w. +. DEITY
land Harry Malloy as judges and A
A Johns as gauger. There were two
contestants. Fred Yockey. the world
lchampion. and Louis Page OF Bisbee
THE latter won by two-fifths OF an
inch, drilling 2I7s inch.s. while Yock-
ey drilled 2l4s inches. This breaks no
record. as il has been beaten here by
1.-TWO or three inches.
Another novel incident Of the after
moon was an exhibition of Juan Nu-
lnez. Of fancy rope throwing and lariat
work. which was given on the track
lin front Of the grand stand.
lBUOD DOBLE AND KINNEY LOU
The overshadowing single attraction
YESTERDAY was Budd Doble and his
notable black stallion, Kinney Lou
THE horse appeared on the track early
lin the afternoon in his warming up
icxercise and was loudly cheered. He
IS a fine looking animal and so many
ifine ones have been seen here in re-
cent years that the people are all di-
vided in sentiment as II their order
. cf rank for beauty.
