Main street during the big show was
refused last night when the council
declared that there were not sufficient
funds on hands TO spare for this sort
OF thing. The cost of proposed work
would be $500, according TO the infor-
nation laid before the council, but tho
members were of the opinion that to
illumine the streets properly would
cost at least twice that sum. and due
TO the short time that remains before
the Roundup and the necessity of adj
vertising for bids, the matter was re-
ferred to the street committee.
A petition from the Sisters Of St.
Francis was read in which the vacat :
ing of part of Hope street was asked.
The street has been partially vacated
FOR several years. Another petition
from Edwin M. Hunter was presented
IN which he asked permission to have
small table on Main street In front
of the Cosy on which to display and
sell the Let 'er Buck books. An
other petition seeking to have Logan
street paved from the south line of
Washington street to the north line of
Jackson street was read and referred
to committee.

MORE RIDERS NEEDED
TO TRY OUT HORSES

I'VE want more riders to try out
horses
That is the call that has been sent
out by sam Thompson. Roundup di-
rector. as a result of two days of
workouts with the horses which viii
help to make history again this year
in the big show. Seven horses were in
the circle Tuesday and eight yesterday
afternoon. More riders are needed to
give the horses faster trials.
AS result of the shortage Slim
Chambers who is working for the
Roundup made three rides yesterday
or rather, slim mounted three ami
mails Fifty tryouts remain to be held
yet, Thompson declares.
Association performers have been
practically the only horses tried out
SO far. There was one grey from Pine
valley yesterday which had a trial.
Right now in the stables there is an
arrav of hard -hucking horses, many
Of whom have defied the worlds most
skillful riders to STAY in the saddle for
real cowboy ride. The names OF
most of them are well known to
Roundup fans. No Name is one
horse with reputation that extends
beyond the bounds of the United
states. and coming along close sec
ond is Sam Jackson who, time OF
