Crowd of 20,000 on Grounds at Walla Walla Show and i. Money's Worth Given. PAVILION NEARLY READY 10 TWO HURT IN ACCIDENTS Only Failures Aro in Bulldogging. Great Events Are Backing Con tests and Seldom Is Such Good Riding; Seen. BY ADDISON BENXETT. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Sept. 19. Special.) The final day of the second annual Frontier Days was what may be declared a hummer. In the first place, the weather was all to the good, bo . far as fitness for the sport was concerned, although several times dur lngr the afternoon there was Just a sprinkle of rain, which often threat ened to be a downpour; but the clouds drifted over and the sun soon again shone brightly. A big pioneers' street parade six miles Ions was held this morning. There were about 20,000 persons on the grounds, and they surely got the worth of their money. The only not able failures were in the bulldogging in wnicn events tnere were six or seven complete failures with only one success, Roy Hunter being the fortu nate one. In all the other trials the steers were too foxy. Hunter downed Ms animal In 30 seconds and then held it while he posed for the photog- rapners. Indian Maiden Is Thrown. There were two accidents, but neither of a serious nature. Jack Joyce, of Seattle, was unfortunate enough to have one of his horses fall in the Roman race. He was thrown under the animal's feet, but suffered only slight contusions. In the squaw i-d.ce one or ue maian maidens was thrown by the breaking- of the saddle girths. She was painfully but not se riously injured. Ruth Barton won the coweirls half mile race by a driving finish. Some of the distance the three horses of the race ran abreast. The chariot race was also closer by far than such events usually are. Of course, the great events of the day were in the bucking contests; and seldom is as good riding seen. As a rule the horses were real outlaws, yet not a man of the dozen or so that rode was hurt. Four Selected for Finals. When all had ridden, the Judges held a lengthy conclave and finally decided that Allen Drumheller. Red Parker, J. H. Strickland and Jackson Sundown should ride the finals. Drumheller was the first to ride, and be had a terrific horse,, which he sat with great skill. Red Parker also drew a vicious animal and made a grand ride. Then Strickland rode, and many thought he at least equaled the others, but the final rider, an Indian from Cul de Sac, Idaho, who had made such a splendid ride before, drew a race horse in place of a bucker. With almost one voice the crowd yelled for another horse, which was soon brought out, only to prove another racer. Again the audience yelled for another horse, but the Judges did not allow it. The audience did not as a rule take kindly to this, but the Judges were ob durate and awarded the first prize to Red Parker, of Valentine, Neb. Second to Allen Drumheller, third to J. H. Strickland and fourth to Jackson Sun down. E. A. Armstrong won the six days' cowboy relay race in 26 minutes, 431A seconds; J. A. Parsons was second, to tal time 28 minutes. Lucille Mulhall roped and tied a steer today in 43 3-5 seconds: Charley Weir in 2S 3-5 seconds and George Weir in 44 seconds. Show Good. All In All. o Taken all in all, it has been a good show in many respects, mediocre in others, particularly in the bull-dogging and roping. But that was one of the fortunes, or misfortunes, of the game. You never can tell what a steer Js go ing to do, how or when he is going to do it. If it were otherwise there would be no fun in such events. The racing events, such as the pony express, the squaw, the chariot, the relays and all the other speed contests were good, rather above the average. Perhaps the attendance was below -the hopes of the promoters, but no doubt the weather greatly lessened the at tendance of those from a distance. So far as the pleasure of those who did attend is concerned, It is sure every body sat out the shows in great com fort. A great many of the participants, and a large number of the visitors will go from here to the Pendleton Round up, which will begin next Thursday. If the weather is at all auspicious, there will be a great crowd there, perhaps greater than ever before. BAKER AWARDS MADE visrroRs at couxty pair, de. SPITK WEATHER, SEE RACES.

The prize for the best bull f Joy. .as or breed went to ORDER HITS ATTENDANCE Fewer Pupils Enroll Because of Health Crusade. Had it not been for the order issued by the city health office requiring all children who could not show vaccina tion certificates to remain away from several schools for a period of two weeks, the aggregate enrollment for the week ending Friday night would have been about 2000 greater than the enrollment for the same period of last year.
