 In the boys burro races which were l pulled off under direction of Joe Wheelock and Rube Sheilds, there
 were seven entries, Clyde Walker, J. Williams, J. Cartwright, c. Crow | ley, Chas. Baldwin, Walter Williams
 Chas. Tweed. It was a fine comedy
 event. One boy was thrown and walked in. Crowley led by two rods to the paddock gate where his mount 1 dumped him. Rube Sheilds announc- ed the following winners: Theodore Roosevelt Peterson, David Creighton l and c. Crowley.
 Then there was a boys sack race, a
 shoe race" by boys. an invention of Sheilds. About twenty boys took
 their shoes off and laid them on the ! scratch under the wire, then retired hundred feet. Aftef each had an-
 nounced with certainty that he knew
 where his shoes were, Sheilds an- nounced that none of them would l know in a minute. At that he piled them in a heap and stirred them up. | then turned the boys loose. The l first two to find their shoes, get them | on and pass inspection got a dollar each. The others each got a ticket.
 There will be more races of the same sort, or others, for the fun lov- CTS today and another burro race and pony race. For this the entries will be open until 12 o'clock today at the Elks theater.

 The poultry show is mentioned first because all the judging is done and the two big poultry houses were cages
 of song birds yesterday Everything
 from Joe Smiths ganders to the big Tom turkeys was making a noise of either satisfaction or discomfort at the conduct of their judge. Judge Rhodes of Topeka, Kans.
 There is about the same kind of a sheep exhibits as last year, as to num- bers and as to quality something will be said later. The swine department seemed rather smaller. The live stock otherwise is notable and will re- ceive attention in due time.
 The Womans building was a lively place and the show will be better there today than yesterday more completely adjusted in all the departments. tex tiles. art, educational etc. The agricul- tural display is magnificent in com parison with former years. The trades display is fine but ought to be still larger. There is yet some vacant space in the big tent for the trades exhibit The mining building was of course an attractive place for all the crowd that could get to it and it was full all the time. Don't overlook this mining building representative of Arizona's greatest industry. It is not only worth while for it's value but there are thousand things there to interest every observing person.
 And then the sugar beet tent which should be a special attraction for the farmers and the booth of McKee's cash store where the purest foods in, the world are given away. Also. ladies. the rest room provided for the fair. The Republicans booth where one may learn all about the scholarships and get copy of Arizonas greatest newspaper.
