Considerable hu- nor was dished out when Wheeler came forth followed by Tom Wag- oner loudly adjuring him to pay strict attention to business. Wheeler missed. Tom poked large hole in the stormy end of his old seego and snapped up the beef for his pardner to tie in fair time.
 Oojah Ruffner-s gaze fell upon the herd of wild steers still in the pen. He grinned, licked his lips, spat and changed the toscin Twenty-one riders answered the summons and lined up for their turns. Things hap pened rapidly for awhile. Slim Riley was the only boy to tackle it one handed Slim made good rides but drew placid steers. Billy Clark made a tidy but topping ride. Carter Bros. looked like some money. Jim Davis, who was injured two days ago in the saddle bucking and again yesterday morning put up napoo ride for all his wounds. Champie's OK failed to register much emotion and Ellis seemed to get a glimpse at the purse. Billy Neal, a cowgirl in full regalia, made a spectacular ride, gig ging her mount from basement to ridgepole and back down the wind ing stairs. Tres chic.
 The sleek rangeland relay horses were brought out and given the high ball. Wells got off in the lead and none of the others could persuade him to come back and ride with them. Cline and Robinson followed him to the bitter end,
 The bulldogging was the feature some folks paid their dollar to see. It's a blood-curdling exhibition even when pulled off in an orthodox man .ner. But when there come up a lot .of unapostolica1 occurrences such as always embellish this event as broad .casted from Prescott's arena-well, Boss, I looked through the whole 40 volumes Of your Editors Ency- clopedia and Dictionary" and there isn't q dang word there that'll fit Anyhow, Slim Riley pulled the cork and wigged his'n in 5 3-4. Jim AL len took a long dive and jack-knifed at the chutes minus his steer. Cham pie did likewise up by the pop. Yaqui Ordunez drew a fleet bale Of durra but managed to whap him after while
 Riley repeated his performance of bulldogging from a motor car. Bar ney Hinkle, real hand from New Mexico, consented to dog his steer with one hand, that being all he's got. Barney borrowed somebody's nag to ride in the event. We'll, Boss, that little pony could just pass any thing on the road-except a veteri- nary's office. Consequently Slim never caught I'D with the first steer a-tall but on the second try Barney hung on an extra gun and filled his pockets with rocks and, connected over by the quarter pole, tipping up his steer in about 31.
 Whereupon Prof. Terry's windjam- mers dispensed un poco harmony upon the flute, the sackbut, and the harp. Much to the edification of all present.
 Meanwhile Ooojah Ruffner dis mounted from the royal mule and aScended once more to his howdah from whence he proceeded to "Tirn 'em out wild" There was consid- erable salad in this crock. The first forl,ful brought out Lone Overton upon Pee Wee. Jim Davis bobbed up. for his date with the Wild Wo- man. Jim gouged this lady from French-heels to hair-net with avidity, whatever that IS. Keltner then tax jed out in the Ford One wheel seemed to want to go north while the others craved the southwest. The steering gear broke and put Tom Bate over the barricade. Chances looked napoo for a wreck just then but the Ford got in reverse and shot back to the chutes.
 The next berry was a dance in which H. Carter and the Shimmy Shaker were the chief participants. It was whirlwind. Stephens got Touch Me Not and touched him up for all that pony was worth, which didn't assay very high. Jackson drew Ia thing yclept Devil Dog. Jack whistled and coaxed and snapped his fingers until the Dog came up and ate the biscuit cut out for him. Here
