guch as tho Venetian street musicians,
and the Bycr Brothers, who gave 0
performance ut the Bijou theater last
evening. They have been playing to
packed houses on the Pnnlages cir
cuit at Scattlo nnd Tacoma nnd arc
nnw on their way to Sueramonto to
fill an engagement, and the only rea
son they stopped at Medford was
their desire to sec the Rogue River
valley and to win a bet made with
parties in Scattlo that they could
make their expenses to Sacrnmonto
by slopping at not more than three
towns and giving pcrl'gonnuneos
without previously announcing their
intention of stopping or in any way
arranging for a house until they had
reached the town in which they were
to perform, and still be in Sacramen
to Monday afternoon, As to whether
they will win their bet or not cijnnot
be told, but it is safe to say that
nothing belter in tho trick bicycle
riding line has ever boon seen in Med
ford. and there were many in tho
audience last night who have paid
$2.50 for standing room and listened
to a poorer rendition of the harp and
violin solo, "Poet nnd Peasant," and
the selection from "El Trovatore,

to send away for anything in order to get something entirely different
from any thing shown in Medford.

you do not first try to secure your needs here before sending away to

FIRE SWEEPS
Apprehension Felt for Son of E. H.
Harrlman Claims Recently
Awarded Damaged. '
Sl'OKANK, Wash., Aug. 20. A
line of fire three mile in width in
reported sweeping over valuable tim
ber lands of the Crtcur d'Alcue In
dian reservation, causing thousands
of dollars damage and seriously im
pairing the value of the claims r
oontlly awarded by the government to
homesoekers.
The fire, according to advices from
Coeur d'Aleno and Kookford, has al
ready done dnmagc estimated ut
.ii0l),000. There is apparently no
moans of checking it because of the
wind. It started yesterday in an O.
R. & N. camp and it is feared that
parties of surveyors of that road
may bo caught. Apprehension is folt
by the road officials, particularly
ior the safety of Kverett Harriman,
son of K. H. Hurriman, who with a
school chum is with a surveying gang.
No word of the parties has been re
ceived, owing to the difficulty of
communication.
