(Continued from Page 1.)

s rell came out of the box jumping anC wobbling worse than on Sunday
 when he rid himself of his rider. Il Parker had not grabbed his saddle horn he would have hit the ground after three jumps. Taking hold oI the horn disqualified him. ? Movie Cowboy Wins. Bob Anderson, the other Selig , man from New Mexico was more successful, he taking first money in the bareback riding. Anderson rode Dave Berry and gave one of the best bareback riding exhibitions through out the celebration, leaving no doubt in the judges mind as to their deci- sion in this contest.
 Lone Jordon who took second prize got Danger who was drawn every day during the show. Jordon with his long legs is a close rival to Doc Pardee when it comes to scratch ing his steed. Jordon did the scratch ing and Danger did the bucking The decision between Anderson and Jor don was said to have been a close one.
 Doc Pardee, who annexed third money, rode Ioway for the second time and again came through with some real bronc busting with plenty of scratching thrown in for good measure.
 Pee Wee was the proudest little horse that performed. He had Bob Donnell trying to ride him, but even if Donnell did try his best, Pee Wee threw him right in front of the grand stand. After ridding himself of his mount, Pee Wee threw his head into the air, gave a short glance at the cheering crowd and dashed off to- wards the corrals.
 3 Steers in A Seconds. i C. C. Jackson roping his steer yes terday in Is seconds, made total of A seconds for three steers and took first purse of $2OO in the steer rop- ing contest from Alton Gardner by a narrow margin. Gardner the second money man, got his three steers in 4434 seconds. The second prize was $10O. The 70 men who had entered
  the contest, were sifted down until the Is best cowpunchers were select ed Yesterdays roping was per formed in great style and when the names of the victors were announced both the cowboys and spectators cheered. Elza Brown took third purse of $75. His time was .47}4 sec onds. J. R. Bassett- with time as 4914 and Perlie Morris with 49A were fourth and fifth respectively. The last two prizes were $50 and $25.
 Although the crowd was smaller than on previous days it is believed that it was more enthusiastic and saw the best show of the entire cele- bration. The spectators were on their feet and cheering through more than half of the performance. The daily parade which was to begin at l | o'clock was eliminated to allow the performance to be started early so the southern people could see the finish and still catch the afternoon train.
 Sensation, excitement and amuse- ment were furnished when the steer riding was put on. The riders rode with nothing to hold on to but the tail or the horns and as result the first three were off before their steers had gone ten feet. Bill Simon finally got a system which is a dandy for sticking on. Simon grabbed the steers horns with both hands and en- twined his legs around its neck. Si- mon stuck to his steer in this manner but in his second ride was not so fortunate, being bucked off in a half dozen jumps. Young" Cain also rode a steer in this manner. Each time the spectators looked for some one to be hurt, but nothing of the kind occurred With the rider on his neck and holding his horns the steer would run along with his head to the ground and swinging back and forth, and the majority of the time the rid CT and steer were in a cloud of dust. Simon also gave a pretty exhibition of steer bulldogging, riding up to one and having him over on the ground in the twinkling of an eye.
 Dr. Thomas Edward Potterton was among those present at the grounds. Potterton, who comes from New York, is a noted lecturer and was here taking pictures and notes of the Frontier Days celebration and the City of Prescott.
