Henry Miller In 'The Havoc", at the Medford Theatre Friday FINAL CONFERENCE Sjrobol & Day of New York under ilrtto of August 125 says: H.irtletts lai carloads, Bay 08,800 boxes, this week on top of the immense quanti ties last week and that tell the story The buyers way that many of thee Suisun and River penrs put in cold storage stand up very poorly. Yes terday we sold the first car from Washington nnd only averaged around $1.25. Plenty of California pears selling from $1.00 to $1.15 but " c ouino they arc no good. The be-st pears are worth today $1 50 to $1.S0 and then all the way down to $1.00 according to the trait. The mnrk?t is just tired although wo uniM con fer there was a big crowd in the auction room today and they took the Bartlctts lively, better than one would think possible knowing the enormous receipts. Nearby grown llnrllctts are coming in but will vir tually finish next week. They are selling $3.50 to $4.p0 a barrel and arc good. 11 is no consolation to tell you that other ninrketa continue be low ours' some of them averaging around a $1.15 for all the pours of fered in a day's auction. We do not like tho situation any better than you do but wo cannot help onrselves and nre fortunate in having such an ini mcjibo consumption. When the pres sure of the enormous receipts is re lieved up will jump New York quick er thau any mnrket in the country. EARL FREED BY COURT FOR PUBLISHING TELEGRAM TACOMA, Wash., Aug. a 1. George !!.

Ste phen Gregory of Chicago today was elected president of tho American Bar Association for tho ensuing year. Other officers elected were: Secretary, George Whitiock of Bal timore. Treasurer. Frederick Wudliums of Albany, N. Y. When Henry Miller appears at tho Medford theater tomorrow evening for tho opening performance of tho season in "Tho Havoc," playgoers of this city will seo tho actor-manager In tho first big dominant rolo he has created slnco tho run of "The Great Divide." In "Tho Havoc" Mr. Miller returns to the field of tho vital, serious drama In which ho has won his greatest triumphs in tho past. His new nlay elves him as powerful a rolo 3 1 as his famous Sidney Carton In "Tho 3 1 Only Way," and In It. according to tho ranking critics of the east, Mr. Miller is doing tho biggest acting of his brilliant career on the American stage. The character played by Mr. Miller, a high official In a big railroad com pany, who Is wronged by a treachcr ous guest In his house. Is n rolo of titanic strength. This man, Richard Crnlg. portrayed by Mr. Miller, dom inates tho story. Tho actor-manni;or has never dono anything moro pow erful or artistic In his whole career thau the portrait of Craig, an Intense, almost saturnlno husband, who from ir condition of general easy content ment Is plunged Into tho depths, but has tho Intelligence to mtalntaln an npaprent equanimity and tho strength to await tho tlmu for a vencnganco more powerful thau any of his own Immediate execution.

Ly, a noted lecturer on woman's rights, becaiibe he would not fight a duel with her. Tho chnllcngo wps sent following an editorial In which tho publisher said Mile. Ly's theories on slnglo blessedness for women and pralso of old maids for their Independence were probably due to tho speaker being no charmer herself. Printing of all kinds at Portland prices.
