DO NOT MISS TO-
MORROW'S PARADE

Out town people are cautioned
not to miss the picturesque free street
pageant with which the Oklahoma
Ranch Wild West show will inaugu-
rate its engagement in Winnemucca
tomorrow. Although some of the So
called wild west exhibitions have, in
recent years, eliminated the parade
under the plea that it no longer ap-
pealed to the public, the management
of the Oklahoma Ranch Wild West
evidences its faith in the appreciation
of the people by announcing the or
ganization of the most typically-pic
turesque wild west parade ever Of
fered as free street pageant. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars, it is an
nounced, have been expended in great
floats and tableaux cars represent
ing historic events in the life of the
great west; magnificent horses; band
chariots and special features. Scores
of blanket Indians, cowboys, cow
girls, Mexicans, old scouts and Cos
sacks are utilized in the line, and the
vari-colored costuming is said to be
beautifully kaleidoscope. One of the
most famous among the old-time stage
coaches is driven by a relic of the old
overland days; there is a genuine
prairie schooner, drawn by oxen, lust
as in the pioneer days, and other char
acteristic features bring the history
of the making Of the west into the
more civilized but not more progress
sive present. Ten kinds of music, in
clnding cowboy band, will enliven
the line of march, which will cover
the principal downtown streets. The
parade starts about 1890.
Following the procession, at 2:l5
O'Clock, there will be a notable per-
formanee in the big arena. Col. Zack
Mulhall, the famous Oklahoma ranch
man and his two eq qlally famous
daughters, Lucille and Georgie, will.
it is announced, give a series cf re-
markable exhibitions of ridi Y, ioring
and shooting, and the -auge method
of fancy shooting will also be Illus
trated by the Kearneys. Otto Kline,
the Calgary champion, will head
great company of cowboy broncho-
busters, whose feats with outlaw
horses are described as thrilling in
the extreme. There viii be gen line
roundup, with big bunch OF long
horned Texas steers, the cowboys AMI
eowgirls will give a luair'lle ON
horseback; Judge Lynch !, method Of
Furnishing horse-stealers will lie dra-
matically illustrated; Indians am; p;o-
neers will fight a battle for the pos
session of settler camp; Mexican
bandits will attack the overland nail,
and there will be enough )thcr ineIte-
ment. according to all accounts, to
keep the interest at fever heat. A
Mexican bull-ight and riiing b., Wild
.Cossacks will be Incidental features,
it is expected, will add to the general
excitement. AS special feature of
startlingly sensational nature, the
management announces a sensational
auto polo match, with four racing ma
chimes as special feature. Nothing
50 startling has ever before been seen
in this city. 1t will be rept x.ted at
the night performances at Sis.
