September Mora On August 11th An unusual attraction is coming to the Vinlng Theatre on Friday, Au gust 11 "September Morn," a musi cal comedy, which has taken the country by storm. The company which plays Ashland is not, however, the entire company, but the princi pals only. The eight people who will bring "September Morn" to Ash land are the leading people, and the show which Ashland will see Is the comedy with the riff-raff chorus left out, thus giving the very cream of the show, the catchy songs and the ASHLAND LUMBER COMPANY Dealers in LUMBER Shingles, lath. Sash. Doors. Roofing Papers, Cordwood, Factory Block Wood brilliant comedy, with the unneces sary left out. The show is condensed into a forty-five-minute rollicking musical farce which is one big laugh and song. And the most attractive part Is the'fact that Ashland will see this production for a price about one fifth that charged for the same show with a few more people. Prices will be 35 cents for adults and 15 ceuts for children. The company which Is coming will bring the complete scen ery of the big company and the pro fusion of electrical effects which add so much to the show. Remember. this is a concentrated musical com edy of high class at a ridiculously low price. The eight members of the company, five ladles and three men, are taking the company to San Francisco, where a chorus will be added and the same show blossom forth as a full) fledged musical com edy with prices In proportion. The musical farce will be given here by the original company, with all the beautiful costumes and scen ery used in the presentation of the play at the LaSalle Opera House, Chicago, where it enjoyed a run of 236 consecutive performances. . It is pronounced by those who have seen it as a veritable tangle of farce frolic, tango and one-step, plentifully Interspersed with fetching melodies. Wouli'Race Wade Hampton Again The owners of Bessie Mills, the Medford horse which waa beaten by Jim Bowers' Wade Hampton a week ago Sunday, are trying to arrange another race between the horses. The Bessie Mills people claim an unfair start. According to the Wade sup porters, J. Arant beat the Bessie Mills crowd at their own game at the last race. Dick Turpln brought Bes sie Mills out onto the track, and after Hampton came out took his horse back to the stable, apparently assum ing that Wade had a '"shot" in him which would lose its effectiveness by the delay. Such waa not the case, however, old Wade being accustomed to doing his best without the help of "high-life." When Bessie Mills skit tishly pranced back out, Arant jock eyed around at the start for quite some time and Bessie Mills got over her Bkittlshness and lost the race.
