This event will surp&as any other
'how of a similar nature ever held,

Imitated the exemplification of pio
neer life In the west, but .the Chey
enne show Is "the daddy " ot them
All", and this year's exhibition prom
ises to excel all previous effort.
A Beautiful City ' . ' '
! Cheyenne Is a small city for the
Capital of a great state, ot much
larger than Grand Island. Nebr., but
It is one of the most beautiful In the
tniddle west. Situated as it la on an
almost treeless plain, the visitor la
surprised at the magnificent parks,
well-kept lawns and the many large
trees that line the streets and sur
round the residences.
At the foot of Capitol avenue is
the massive stone station of the
Union Pacific rialroad. The depot
park, although small, Is a veritable
t canty spot. Less than a mile up
the avenue stands the state house, a
model of neatness and surrounded
by a remarkably pretty lawn. Fort
' P. A. Russell, adjacent to the city
and connected by electric line, is one
of n number of places of Interest eas
ily accessible.
A Ilig Show and a Illg Crowd.
The managers of the Frontier
Day celebration this year are plan-
summoned the best talent In the
world for the coming celebration.
Pronch boaters, lariet throwers and
bulldogglng experts, , together- with
Bcoretr of other wild west perform
ers, will give the visitor the wildest
and woollest program of programs.
The aggregation of cowboy, cow
girls,' And Indians who are to be the
principal actors was swelled when
Secretary Cahlll announced that Red
Farrell, aald to be , the champion
rough rider ot the northwest, had
signified his tntention of entering the
games. Leonard Stroud, last year's
champion, will probably clash with
Farrell for supremacy In the Chey
enne celebration.
Since the Frontier games last year
Stroud has entered scores of contests
and has won practically every one In
which he has entered. Farrell has
won all events In Canada and the
Northwest since the fall of 1918 and
has jet to meet his master.
John Murrah of Lakewood, New
Mexico, In a letter to Secretary Cahul
states that ten of the best ropers In
New Mexico will be on hand to win
laurel sfor that state.
Tommy Grimes and Johnny Judd,
two old timers In .the local celebra
tion, have Just been mustered out of
What Is one person's loss Is some
times another's gain. This Is the
case In the change made thl saeason
from the brand inspector's force at
the Omaha market to a wejl-known
commission firm.
' John Robb, formerly chief brand
Inspector, Is now with Donahue-Ran
dall ft Company, live stock commis
sion men. Mr. Robb s efficiency as a
brand Inspector Is known to a large
number of ranchmen of. Nebraska
and adjoining states who have been
shipping to the Omaha market In re
cent years. He will be missed from
the position which he formerly oc
cupied but not from the market.
In his new position with Donahue
Dandall L Company, he will act as
brand man, work for which he Is ex
ceptionally well qualified, and also
as assistant cattle salesman.
