The Cow Girl.

Among the horses, steers, buffaloes,
cowboys Indians and other concomi-
tants of the wild and woolly" west
which the Miller Brothers famous 101
Ranch is bringing to this city on next
Thursday. is an element new to this
communicable Cow Girl! The lady
bronco buster; the feminine conqueror
of beef and horns; the lassooer in lin
gerio; the Rough Rider in ribbons and
ruches
The Cow Girl is a development of
the stock raising west comparing with
the Bachelor Girl and the Independ-
ent Woman of the east. She is not of
the New Woman class-not of the
sort that discards her feminine attri
butes and tries to ape, the man, sim
ply a lively, athletic young woman
with a superiority of nerve and ami
NAL spirits, with realization that in
affairs where skill is the chief quail
fication she has an equal chance with
her brothers.
Those who expect to see a group of
raWbOned. masculine, AmaZons in these
cowgirls will suffer a keen disa point
merit. for there is not one of them who
would not-and does not-cut a dain-
ty figure on the floor of a ballroom
From mabel Miller, champion all
around COW girl of the west. to Dolly
Roberts, noted for her skill ahorse
lltN are DIS pretty d tOlltGLlOH OF girls
as ever set masculine hearts a-1utter
They are close friends and happy as
sociates. recruited from ranches which
adjoin the 101. and all are with the
. show for jolly good time.
Miss Miller is not unknown here
for her fame has preceded her Her
achievements in the saddle have given
her a title to the claim of being one of
the most fearless and accomplished
horsewomen in the world. And she
can rope, throw and tie a steer in
something less than a minute. From
the time she was first able to sit on
a horse, she has been intensely fond Of
anything in the way of equestrianism,
and no feat performed by the most
reckless among cowboys on the re-
nowned 101 Ranch has ever baf1ed her.
She learned to throw the lariat with a
skill wonderful for a girl: but that
was not enough for her. She wanted
to learn how to do it better than the
cleverest cowboy on the range and
roundup, and finally came the time
when the men could learn something
by watching Mabel.
Mabel Miller, however, is not the
only wonderful COW girl Of Oklahoma
who shows her skill with the 1O1
Ranch show. A score of others are
close rivals in all the picturesque
and spectacular achievements. Their
racing contests are so stubbornlv
fought out that limb and even life are
at stake. Their trick" riding is the
despair of masculine imitators.
There will be wild horse races, buff
falo hunts, Indian war dances. crack
Workmanship, steer roping, branding.
Mexican bullfight round-ups, cow
boy pastimes, "bucking' horses with
the 101 Ranch show. But the feature
of features in parade and in arena
will be the Cow Girl!l
