Gav time. Earl Carroll is writing a
musical piece entitled "Call Taxi"
Louis Hirsch and Rennold Wolf are

Hirsch and Otto Hauerbach are max
ing over James Montgomery's farce,

Julia Sanderson and Joseph Cav
thorn, but not Donald Brian, will open
the Empire with Rambler Rose" Mr..
Brian has gone to the management Of
Joe Weber, and he will be seen and
heard with Carolina White in Victor
Herbert operetta called "Her Regi-
ment." Mr. Herbert's librettist,
strangely enough, is not Henry Bios
som, but William lie Baron.
Going back to Wodehouse and Boil
ton, they have written Kitty Darlin'.'
the same being musical version Of
"Sweet Kitty Belairs." In 1t Alice
Nielsen will return to the stage, the
time and place being October 1 and
the Casino Theatre. This will be, in
cidentally, the first musical production
supervised even remotely by David
Belasco. In the first place, II is a
Belasco play which is being revan,ped;
secondly, it is Mr.. Belasco's sons-in-
law, Messrs. Comstock and Gest, who
are making the production.
Adapted comedies and farces are the
newest thing In musical comedy, and
William A. Brady will enter the field
with a musicalization Of "Baby Mine"
"Sadie Love" will be put to music, I'M
der the title of "a Full Honeymoon"
and it is reported that "Our Little
Wife" will enjoy similar transposition.
"Wie Ernst i'm Mai" has become
"'Twas Once in May" and is now the
work of Rida Johnson Young and Sig
mund Romberg This piece is a sort
of musical "Milestones," and was
greatly liked at the Irving Place last
season. From California comes the
news that Mr.. Morosco has success
fully produced "What Next?" a must
cal comedy of the Canary Cottage"
school. Goat Tales" is being equipped
with music by Silvio Helm, and will
reach the stage again under the title
of "Furs and Frills." As for Viennesc
operettas, there is every Indication
that they will be with us in as great
numbers as Of yore, despite the war.
The sensitive managers, however, are
expected to change their locale to one
of the Allied countries in all instances.

THE BANNER YEAR IN FRUIT
SHIPMENTS SINCE 1913.

This has been the banner year for
fruit shipments through the Ashland
association since 1913. The total
sales in dollars amounted to two
thirds more. In 1915 the association
received $4,000 for its total ship
ments. Last year it got total of
$4S,000, and this year, while the
footings have not been completed, the
cash received for Ashland fruit ship
ments will go beyond $4,000. The
association reports this the easiest
year for sales, in everything except
apples, that has been experienced
since 1918.
The prices this year have been bet
ter than for several years on all fruits
but apples.
The association this year used IA
cars of shook of total value of $10,-
025 and used $4,000 pounds of wrap
ping paper.
The bulk of the apple crop has
been exported on consignment with
liberal cash advance when loaded
on the cars here.
The final returns on these apples
will not be available for some time
yet.
Since the first Of September when
the packing of pears began there has
been employed from eight to fifteen
packers and helpers all of the time
for two months past busy on apples
alone.
The manager reports approximate
ly for this years business up to date
the following amounts of fruits as
having been received and sold:
Twenty thousand boxes of apples,
5000 boxes of pears, $500 boxes of
cherries, $4,000 boxes of peaches,
1,400 boxes of plums and prunes.
$500 crates Of berries, 2,700 boxes
of tomatoes, LOO boxes of goose
berries, 500 crates of grapes. and
several cars of assorted vegetables,
making a total, If all had been loaded
and shipped in cars, Of over eighty
carload lots for the season.
The sales for the season of flour
and feed, poultry supplies, spray, box
shook, paper, nails, etc, have been
very satisfactory, something like

The Chautauqua is one of Ash
lands most valuable assets. which
has been a contributing factor in Sc
curing for us the well-merited title
Of the city beautiful Our great audi
torium completed last year has been
at once the wonder and admiration
of those who have seen it. Situated
as it is almost in the center of town,
with its pure white dome lifted above
everything else around it, standing
out like a snow-clad mountain peak,
makes a scene not easily forgotten
by those who come this way, and Is
usually topic OF conversation with
them wherever they go. Ashland is
justly proud of this achievement, but
1T was not primarily for show, how
ever beautiful 1t might be, that this
auditorium was built and was erect
ed for use for Chautauqua purposes
and for the use of the city as we'll
Thus far 1t has served us we'll at
home and given to us advertisement
abroad. Many of our leading news
papers have been generous in their
mention of it, Great American mag
azines have given as much as half
column together with a photograph
of the building in their generous
praise OF this forward movement in
Chautauqua work, but this building,
put up at great cost and by much la
Dor, was not intended for Ashland
alone It was intended to equally
serve all the people Of this valley and
all Of northern California as we'll.
Any Chautauqua that is to be perma-
nent, that is to maintain the objects
for which 1t was organized, must
seek not only to serve the commun-
ity where 1t is located. but the coun-
try adjacent to it. The Southern Ore
gon Association having laid the !
foundations so we'll. are now deter
mined to go forward, reaching out
for the best that can possibly be had,
so that our work heretofore shall not |
have been in vain, and to this end
we wish to assure the public in ad-
vance that we are to have one of the
greatest programs for our coming
session next July that any Chautau-
qua has ever had. Arrangements are
now being made for this coming pro-
gram which is to include some Of the
worlds great singers, lecturers. musi-
clans and entertainers, and, last but !
not least, one of Americas most fam

cent of the output of virtually every
coal mine in the country was issued
by the fuel administration today. The
coal will be distributed by the gov
eminent to meet emergency require
ments wherever they may arise.
Consumption is keeping pace so
closely with production that many
parts of the country are feeling the
pinch of a coal shortage. Industries
essential to the public welfare in many
cities face the prospect of closing
down. and thousands of househoIders
have found it impossible to purchase
winters supply of fuel.
The fuel administration has met
the situation as best IL could by order
ing individual mines to supply emer-
gency needs. but it has been decided
that a government pile of ''spot coal"
will best serve the purpose.
