Monster Crowds
Coming Tomorrow
(By Frank H. Hull, Movie Man,
Portland.

Pleasure seekers of every descrip-
tion are planning on visiting Ashland
for from one day to week and en-
joy the facilities of the parks and
camp grounds as we'll as attend the
roundup and celebration. Many are
coming in autos, but the greater per
cent will come by rail. One of Port
lands witty newsboys wanted to
know if my six-shooter was loaded,
and called to a copper" that he
wasn't game to take 1t away from
me. The Ashland movies were shown
at the Pickford Theatre to a large
and appreciative audience. A lady
who sat in the same section with us
at the show was well versed with
each Ashland scene and seemed to
take great pleasure in telling those
about her something interesting
about the scenes as they appeared on
the screen. left Portland on the
midnight train for
Roseburg.
In spite of other local attractions,
a good crowd was in attendance at
the Antlers Theatre. This being Sat-
urday, many of the business people,
who seemed the most interested,
were unable to attend, but the poems
and programs were well distributed
among the stores and crowds on the
street, and if all those came who
promised, Ashland had better lock
her chicken coops. The jitney driv-
ers tell me that they all have loads
engaged and some of them two and
three. The motorcyclists have ar
ranged party and are planning on
being in attendance for all three
days. One booster who is coming by
rail with party of friends ordered
dozen Of the roundup hatbands for
the bunch. l left here at 10:30 p. m.
on the Shasta Limited for Ashland,
where / was met by a party of local
rooters and landed at 9 a. m. in
Klamath Falls.
We attended "buck" meet in the
afternoon and caught a few movies.

The Roping Of the
King Of the Range

(For years to come cowboys of the
great plains of southeastern Oregon
will tell of the exploit of a woman,
Mrs. Will Sims, who on her pony,
Telegraph, captured the wild stallion
of klamath county which for years
had eluded the best of klamath s
horsemen. Mrs. Sims and the wild
stallion are both in Ashland for the
roundup. Tracy Layne, the Pendle-
ton cowboy poet, puts the capture of
the range king into verse;

In the evening we woke 'em up. My
get" frightened a few chickens in
one of the leading cafes, but after
our bunch let out a few roundup
yells and the cause of the outburst
was known, they all Joined in a
hearty laugh. Our movies were
shown at the Star Theatre to an ap-
preciative audience. Many from
here will be at Ashland for the cele-
bration and goodly number of cow
boys and horses will take part in the
roundup attractions.
Dunsmuir.
A large crowd of people passed the
streets here all evening and l pre-
sented the most of them with one of
our poems and posted goodly unm-
ber of the programs, but on account
of their celebration, the manager Of
the local theatre decided it was best
for him not to show our movies until
later date. We expect to show it
on the last day of their celebration,
the 4th, which will probably bring
us more results and profit him fully
as we'll.
MedfOrd.
From Dunsmuir l jumped into
Medford (some Jump, where our
movie received one grand applaud
at the Page Theatre. Owing to lack
of local publicity, many who were
planning on seeing this movie here
were not aware of the night Of show
ing and missed seeing it. The usual
good crowd was in attendance, how
ever, and showed their appreciation
by a good hand.
Ashland.
Packed to the doors of our big
Vlnlng Theatre, the local people
thronged to see themselves and
friends in movies. Our local Fatty
Arbuckle" brought a continuous
round of laughter, especially at the
third showing, when some of his
friends took delight in searching for
his stately form in each scene as it
was shown. If he was not in sight,
no matter what the scene, someone
would be heard to jest, from some
nook, where's Frank?" or "There
he is" etc. So few seemed to take
any real interest in trying to make
this great advertising medium a sue

There's a place in the West called
Modoc county,
Where the Modocs fought in the
long, long ago,
When Mowich butte was a roaring
volcano
And spread her hot lava Ger the
valley below.
Twas then that the antelope slept on
the hillside,
Twas then that the deer hid in
the bunch grass,
Then cougar and bear and bobcats
were plenty,
But away and goodbye, they all
had to pass.
Then horses were there, yes there
by the thousands,
And they roamed o'er the hills and
lived fat as could be,
But the cowboys came west with
their ropes and their saddles
And took them away from the life
that was free.
But there was one horse which they
never could conquer,
And they never could keep this
horse with the herd;
He would quit the bunch and make
for the mountains
Or down o'er the rocks, and he'd
sail like bird.
From Gear La';e to the buttes he
s1-e knew the country,
From Bowls Creek in the east to
Mowich in the west,
And he'd stand in the rocks and
watch for the riders,
Then away he would go and ne'er
stop to rest.
Duncan went out with his
old thirty-thirty,
He said he would get him or he
would know why.
He emptied his gun at the little bay
stallion,
But somehow or other the horse
didn't die.
rhe Pitchfork boys said they would
get him.
They ran him for days and camped
on his trail,
And time and again they thought
they would get him,
But to bring back the stallion the
boys they did fail.
'or five years or more they all tried
to get him,
But he'd look back at the boys and
give them the horse laugh,
Til Mrs. Will Sims, who had heard
of the stallion,
Came out with the horse which she
calls Telegraph.
he ran him for miles and down Ger
the lava,
To Telegraph's running there was
no end.
he took down the rope and tied fast
to the saddle,
And roped the bay horse at the Old
Niger Bend.
lis free life is ended and his head it
hangs low,
He longs for the hills he roamed
o'er so long,
ut Mrs. Will Sims still has her rope
on him,
So now he must think of the days
that are gone.

it looks as if all the rear part Of its

The arrangement is so singular that

creature has, and that they probably
