Stops Steer TyinS.

[
 Captain Harry Wheeler Sunday, at Don Luis. in preventing an exhibi- tion in which steers were to have been roped and tied. and "Nigger' Picket was billed to throw a steer with his teeth. the end of cruelty to animals in Arizona. whether in an exhibition or otherwise, was marked, the last and most thrilling of wild west feats has received a quietus and the only -vestige now left of the life on the plains now remains in the simple and monoton- ous stunt of the eowpuncher who may contine to mount the hurricane deck of the untamed "bronch" and be jostled to his hearts content, says the Douglas International American.
 The 24th legislature said that cruelty to animals in the guise of feats of skill and. exhibitions must stop; Captain Harry Whe, ,ler sec onded the enactment of the law, and so far as known. Sunday, April 13, was the first time in the history of this territory that cowboy sport was preemptorily called to halt under threat of imprisonment.
 For the past three weeks O.. c. Nations and Clay McGonigall. both famous throughout the west as steer tieers and broncho busters. have been conducting weekly exhibitions of their ability. and as side line "Nigger" Pickett. of Texas. a l black cowboy. has been throwing steer by catching the animals lip between his teeth after mounting the running steer from the back of fleet pony, and throwing the beast. To the morbid this has proven a most interesting feat and ] crowds have gathered expressly to see this part of the performance. There will be no more of it wher- ever there is an Arizona ranger. or for that matter, any other officer of the law who is conversant with | the latest statute covering this fea- ture of exhibitions.
 Sundays was the second .xhibi- tion scheduled to be conducted for | the edification of the Bisbee public, the first having been conducted without interruption.
 The management of the affair i offered no resistance to the orders | of the officer of the law, but sub { stituted instead of the steer tieing f and the ''nigger' steer contest, a whole lot of rough riding which seemed to catch the crowd and to F appease them.
 The officers would not even per- init the riders to throw a rope

RATHER DRUNK.
Little Girl Sits in His Lap While He
Sleeps.

Tightly clasping some fruit in her
small hands and almost overcome by
sleep. a little Indian girl of four or
FIVE summers presented a touching
picture last night as she sat In the
lapof her father. who was sound
asleep in drunken stupor In the
ladies' waiting room of the North
ern Pacific depot.
Although the child could hardly
resist the need VI rest she kept her
vigil. watching the crowds come and
go with childish curiosity. Many
wondered at the strange figure of
the little tot as, clad In a blue calico
aress and with her head wrapped in
bright coiored handkerchief. she
resembled little old woman keeping
watch over one who should have
been guarding her.

market quotations recently are in
the prices of hay which have taken
slight advance The price of oats
is also little highter than a few

difference in the fruit market. Ey-

Winter apples are arriving and will
soon take the place of the summer
varieties. Nearly all of the peaches
have reached the end of the season
with the exception of the Sideways
which will soon be marketable.
Pears are also growing a little scare

prices. ranging from soc per dozen

ranch product. Other commodities
