WORST HORSE IN THE WORLD.
Prizes Offered at Cheyenne Frontier
Days Celebration.

Cheyenne, Wyo.-The worst horse
in the world will be identified during
the Frontier days celebration which is
to be held in this city, August 18th,
10th, goth and 21st. Heretofore, at
preceding Frontier days and other
western celebrations, prizes have been
offered for the worst horse" but at
the coming cowboy carnival at Chey-
enne there will be conducted the first
out-and-out contest exclusively for
bad horses. In this the determination
of relative degrees Of equine cussed-
ness will not be side issue in a
rough riding contest, but will be the
issue-in-chief Of a contest designated
to identify the worst horse in the
world and for no other end.
Only in the West does value at
tach to bad horse, elsewhere such
an animal is worse than valueless.
But in the West-the land of the
broncho and those dauntless riders
who subjugate the outlaw strain in
the bronchos temperament the
worse a horses disposition the higher
his value
Bad buckers here attain fame that
spreads through many states and
outlaws" which defy continuously
and successfully all efforts to break
their spirit are property of great val
ue. Noted riders will travel hundreds
of miles to try conclusions with such
horses as Stemler Bay, Old Steam
boat, Senator Warren, Rocking Chair,
and others Of their kind; thousands
of dollars have been wagered on con-
tests between such animals and cow.
boys who believe they possess the
skill and strength to break them.
In the worst horse" contest,
owners Of outlaw bronchos will enter
their animals and provide riders for
them. The cowboys doing the riding
will be required to observe the same
rules as govern the championship
broncho busting contest, but judging
will not be Of the merits of the rider,
but of the strength, cunning and
wickedness of the horses. Inasmuch
as it is expected that the worst horse
in every state in which the broncho
thrives will be entered it well may be
said that the result of the contest will
be Identification of the worst horse in
the world.

A T those fashionable sporting events
~ in and near Paris, which are at
tended by great concourse of people
more interested in styles than any
thing else, one may expect to see the
best efforts Of the most capable de-
signers Of apparel in the world The
Jockey club races at Auteuil, the
French Derby at Chantilly and the
event of the Grand Prix mark the
launching of ideas for the coming fall,
as Easter sees them on parade for the
summer which follows it. Here is q
snapshot picture, taken at Chantilly,
in which gowns made up in midsum-
mer fabrics are cut on lines that prom
ise well for fall. AS the last word in
summer gowns and as showing
changes in style tendencies they are
equally interesting.

mer comfort. The model could be
copied in lightweight linen or in white
