MISS TILLIE BALDWIN
With the appearance June 7 of the
101 Ranch Wild West Show in this
city an interesting story of how the
show started was related by the press
representative, John U. Carey, who
was in this city Friday and Saturday.
The 101 Miller ranch, ownpd by the
three Miller brothers, George Zach
and Joe, is located at Bliss, Oklahoma
and consists of thousands of acres,
most of which is prairie land. Col
onel Theodore Roosevelt with several
other notables was invited to the
Miller ranch, where an exhibition of
fancy riding was given. Colonel
Roosevelt was amazed at the riding
especially of one woman, Miss Tillie
Baldwin, who is only twenty-two years
of age. After he viewed her riding
horseback and also performing the
wonderful feat of riding on a buffalo's
back, he complimented her, and stat
ed that she was the bravest woman
in the world. Miss Baldwin is a pre
possessing young woman, and has
been one of the general favorites on
the ranch, where she was born
She is at home - ' in the
saddle and enjoys giving her wonder
ful exhibition. Among the features
of the Colonel's visit at the ranch was
the barbecue, when one of the larg
est buffaloes on the ranch was
slaughtered and roasted.
It was at this time that it was sug
gested by Colonel Roosevelt to the
Miller brothers that they organize a
company consising of some of the
people on this wonderful ranch. The
matter was taken under considera
tion, and it was at last decided to or
ganize a company. Some of the In
dians, consisting of many tribes, such
as the Ponca, Sioux, Cherokee, Chey
enne, Pawnee and Navjo, that were
connected with the ranch, and cow
boys, as well as some of the women
riders were organized into the com
pany that is now on the road. It was
decided to call the show the "161
Wild West Show," the "101" being
taken irom the brand of the Miller
Brothers, this having been used in
branding of all of their horses. On
the ranch is the largest herd of buf
faloes in existence, twelve of which
have been brought from the ranch for
show purposes, and one of which is
ridden by Miss Tillie Baldwin. Five
hundred of their best horses were se
lected for show purposes. The "com
pany carries with it its own physi
cian, three 'stenographers, mailcar
rier, treasurer, auditor and claim agent.

throughout the state in political cir
cles, was in the city Saturday and is

C. Schuebel to debate the question of
Single Tax at qanby. Mr. Stevens
was accompaned by Adam Knight.
The challenge was declined by Mr.
Schuebel, and Mr. Stevens did not see
Mr. U'Ren.
"I want to see the Single Tax
Amendment beaten so badly in Ore
gon that it will never be brought to

eph Fels," said Stevens.
A CLEW TO HAPPINESS.
If it be my lot to crawl, 1 will
crawl contentedly; it to fly. I will
fly with alacnty, but as long as I can
possibly avoid it 1 will nevei be un
happy. If with a pleasant wife,
three children and many friends who
wish me well I cannot be happy I
am a very silly, lootish fellow and
what becomes of me is of very little
consequence, Sydney Smith.

t WHEN DONOVAN AND ZEIDER
I DISCUSSED NASAL ORGANS.
Bill DonovaD of the Detroit
J Tigers and Kolly Zeider of
the Chit-ago Americans possess
J noses Unit are larger than or
dinary. Neither is sensitive, and
f during the season each usually
indulges In a lot ot arguments
.j. over the relative size of the oth-
j er's nasal organ.
During a game between the
Tigers and the White Sox last
year Bill and Roily were doing
T the coaching for their clubs
Donovan is far above the aver
J age in the use of the English
language as far as its witty and
X sarcastic features are concerned.
The two were engaged In a
friendly argument, in which lion
ors were about even, when
Zelder, In the hope of crushing
J Donovan's talk, said:
4. "Well, If 1 had a bank account
T us large as your nose I would
quit playing ball."
J "Yes. and if I had your nose
.5. tilled with nickels I would have
J more money than Rockefeller."
retorted Donovan.
J That ended the argument for
. the afternoon. Bill smiled, as
J only be can smile, as be con
tinued on his way to the bench.

I BOXER GETS HIS HAIR

John Connolly of Scotland, who re
cently met Packey McFarland in Fall
River, Mass., is very superstitious.
Connelly gets his hair out before every
bout, no matter how often he tights'
Johnuy believes that If he did not
get his curls clipped he would be
doomed to defeat
When the Scotch mixer met Noah
Brusso at Thornton, R. 1.. last winter
he failed to visit a barber shop before
entering the ring, and he was almost
knocked put by his opponent, bnt man
aged to come back strong and win tbe
decision. He met Brasso a month
later at New Bedford. This time tie
had his hair fixed up tn grand style
and naturally enough went In and
gave Brusso u sound trouncing.
AFTER ROWING TITLE.

The like of the -oming match ha

wheu Nevt-South Wales took the title

owned a champion of the world and
