Ilea,ly, who was earth pinked from the position of nssistant mnnager of the famous Tivoli open house, San Francisco, arrived in Med ford Tuesday and spent Xmns as the guetf of Manager llazelrigg. Mr. Ilealy is here in the interest of the Han Fran cisco opera company, the splendid light opar organiznt ion that will present "The ToMiir.ker" nt the Medforc' en ra hou-.. Tuesday. December .11 (iV-.w M'f.r'M cm ). ! Ilealy informed Mr. Hn.elrigg that, owing to the fact that he has his scenery, special I built, no as to be utili.ed on small ns well ns large stagt, "The Toyniaker" will be giv en a presentation equal in every respect to the production now running at the Miinunm Grand theater, Portland. The Portland papers of last Monday devot ed volnmns of praise to "The T.:y maker. " The San Francisco opera compaay has played some 1! weeks in Portland, and it is doubtful, indeed, if any light opera organization in Amer ica can boast of as many really fine singers, good comedians nnd beautiful girls in the chnru. Manager Hazelrigg, at whose personal request the company decided to give Medford a date, is leav ing no stone unturned in order that "The Toyniaker" will be given a re ception in keeping with its excellence. interests of the public clash with his; or to immunity from criticism. "I desire to enlarge the scope of the daily, to make it the newspaper of the valley, instead of one city in the val ley, nnd to quadruple its circulation and business. To this end I ask your cooperation, and in no way cftn you cooperate better than by buying our securit it a. "0. PUTNAM, Kditor nnd Manager." Are Good Investment.
