The largest crowd that ever wit nessed an event at Phoenix parK gathered yesterday afternoon to see the steer tying and broncho riding exhi bition composing the first day's enter tainment of Jack Gibson's tournament. Carriages were hitched to every avail able tree and post all around the park enclosure, and the east-bound street cars were crowded from early after noon till 3 o'clock and from that time on till night standing room was at a premium on the west-bound cars. At the park entrance there were bicycles in countless numbers piled up against the natatorium building and if some Vere not lost or stolen it was because F'hoenix people are all scrupulously honest or were yesterday. . Within the park was a crowd that looked like an old fashioned county fair. The grand stand was packed to its fullest capacity, the fence from one end of the park to the other was care fully held up by hundreds of sturdy men, boys and ladies, and the fences on the south side and ends of the en closure were fringed with the festive Phoenix kid engaged in that most d- i lightful of occupations, "rubberneck- j ing." From each end of the park thero was a short fence running out into the , arena and these, like all the others, J were laden with a human fruitage. The fence at the west end of the grounds gave way in one place in the middle of the afternoon and a boy by the name of Homer Rum bo was pre- j cipitated to the ground and very so- i verely. though not dangerously, injured by a board falling on him. One of his legs was badly gashed and bruised and it was thought at first that his leg was broken, but such did not prove to be the case. He was carried out to the grass plat surrounding the theater building and given the necessary at tention. That was the only thing of j a serious nature that happened, except ' to a steer, that had a leg broken, there by saving himself from some hard falls. The steer tying exhibition was a good one and showed well the fortunes of the range. The cowboy, like everyone else, sometimes meets with disappoint ment when he wants to show off, and even a cowboy's pride must have a fa!! once in a while. Charlie Davis was the one to suffer yesterday. He hap pened to get a steer that refused to , stay thrown long enough for anybody to tie him. He was rather a small ani mal, but as active as a. cat. Mr. Davis roped him all right and threw him repeatedly, but somehow he failed to knock the wind out of him and Mr. Steer was up again before Davis could get to him. After & number of heavy falls the steer got onto his Job and In stead of keeping his head In one direc tion so Davis could ride round him and give him the grand fall, he turned pivot like with the rider and refused to be tripped. But Davis worked hard and landed him in seven minutes and thirty-three seconds. It wasn't much of record, but it In likely that -with the same steer others would have had no better luck. The quickest time made was 43 sec onds by Joe I5asett. though two others were rot far behind him. The record for the dav stands as follows: Wayne Davis, 1 minute, 6H4 seconds. George Sears, 4n seconds. Joe Bassett. 43V4 seconds. Ed Horrell, 56 seconds. Walter Cline, 1 minute. 11 seconds. Charles Davis, 7 minules, 33 seconds. Logan Morris. 2 minutes. 15 seconds. Bob Harper. 1 minute. 41V4 seconds. Osew Roberts. 3 minutes. 3 seconds. Tex Wilkinson. 1 minute. 14 seconds. The broncho riding was equally as In teresting and showed the knights of the range in combat with the cow pony, which must be conquered before the real work with the steers begins. There were but four entries yesterday Joe Blnckley. Tex Wilkinson. Joe Bas sett and William Riley. The sport was very entertaining thoughout and par ticularly to those for whom that sort of a demonstration was a novelty. Today there will be more of the same kind of sport, beginning at 2 p. m. In today's steer tying contest the men who worked yesterday wll today throw a steer each. The time of each man for the two steers will be added to gether and the three highest will be given a chance to test their skill with each other on four more steers to be turned loose, the man tying his animal and getting to the odd one first get ting a ten-dollar purse in addition to the regular prizes.

There was a renewal of the trouble yesterday between the miners of the Phoenix mine and Superintendent James Smith, regarding the time of the payment of the checks Issued by the superintendent when the men left troughs, drinking pans, etc.. D. H. BURTIS, the mine. These checks were made payable on January 15, Instead of upon presentation, as the men supposed, until they presented them at the Val ley bank for payment on Tuesday afternoon. Some of the miners met Mr. Smith near the corner of Center and Washington streets yesterday about noon, and renewed the hot alter cation which had taken place in Wall street the afternoon before. Nothing was agreed upon and there was some talk of violence, but none was actually attempted. The meeting ended with an ultimatum by the miners that Mr. Smith would be given an hour to take up the checks. It was learned last night that he had not made use of the time for that purpose. The men are not apprehensive that they will lose the money. There is more than $1,400 In the Valley bank to the credit of the company, and the New York men. who compose it, would no doubt advance all that might be needed for carrying oh operations. One of them said yesterday that until this misunderstanding about the cele bration of Christmas arose the super intendent was well liked. There had been some dissatisfaction at the mine on account of the bill of fare in the company boarding house, but the more reasonable miners regarded the cook as the only offender. At least, one of the men, who took an active part in Saturday's demonstration, will go back to the mine to work this morning. Some of the others are threatening to attach the company's balance in the bank. IT IS IMPORTANT To Know What You Are Taking When Using Catarrh Medicines. Catarrh is the short route to con sumption, and the Importance of early and Judicious treatment of catarrh, whether located in the head, throat or bronchial tubes, cannot be too strong ly emphasized. The list of catarrh cures is as long as the moral law and the form In which they axe administered, numer ous and confusing, from sprays, inhal ers, washes, ointments, and salves to powders, liquids, and tablets. Tho tablet form Is undoubtedly the most convenient and the most effec tive, but with nearly all advertised ca tarrh remedies It Is almost entirely a matter of guess work as to what you are taking Into your system, as the proprietors, while making all sorts -of claims as to what their medicines will do. always keep It a close secret as to what they are. The success and popularity of the new catarrh cure. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, Is largely because It not only cures catarrh but because catarrh suf ferers who use these tablets know what they are taking Into their sys tems. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are composed of Red Gum. Blood Root and similar valuable and antiseptic ingre dients, and are pleasant to the taste and being dissolved in the mouth they take Immediate effect upon the mucous lining of the throat, nasal passages and whole respiratory tract. The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets have accomplished In old chronic cases of catarrh are little short of re markable, and the advantage of know ing what you are putting into your stomach Is of paramount Importance when It is remembered that the cocaine or morphine habit has been frequently contracted as the result of using se cret catarrh remedies. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets meet with cordial approval from physicians, be cause their antiseptic character renders them perfectly safe for tho general public to use and their composition makes them a common sense cure for all forms jot catarrhal troubles. All druggists sell them at 50 cts, for full sized packages. San .Francisco's Opinion of W. F. Skeele's Organ Playing. Mr. Skecle was the solo organist for the grand opening concerts of the in ternational convention of the Epworth league at San Francisco in July. 1901. The organ used was the great me morial organ Just completed by the Harris Organ company of Los Angeles for the Stanford Memorial chapel. The following are some of the notices of Mr. Skeele's work which appeared In the San Francisco papers: The solemn rolling of a. mighty or gan, handled as never' organ was han dled In this city. San Francisco Chronicle. This was fallowed by the first organ solo, grand choeur in D, played by W. F. Skeele of Los Angeles. This was the beginning of an ovation for the Stan ford University Memorial Chapel Or ganist Skeele and Organ Builder Har ris. The best compliments from the audience was that thousands In it sat as one person, giving rapt attention and then Insisting on an extra num ber. Organist Skeele's second appear ance was to perform two organ solos Lemare's Barcarolle and a. Lemmens Grand Fantasia, "The Storm." Hun drads cf the listeners broke Into ap plause while the sweet-toned tempest was raging down from the silvered pipes. The impression Mr. Skele made in his work at the Stanford organ will long be talked about In San Francisco.
