WAGNER'S GREATEST OPERA.
COnstnntin SternberE Gives an Adj
mirable Lecture ON "Parsifal."

One of the musical treats of the season
was the lecture on "Parsifal," with illus
tratons by stereopticon and piano. given
last evening at the Propylaeum by Mr..
Constantin Sternberg. Mr.. Sternberg began
his lecture by giving short sketch of Rich
ard Wagner. the composer. He said that
Wagner had been a martyr, that he had
suffered all that man could heap upon
him and like the phoenix. had risen from
the ashes of this eontumely. He said Wag
ner had great love Not the love of the
summer novel. not even that love of father
for a child, but the great Christian love
of which Christ said. Love one another.
His transcendent genius shown in his
works. but in none. perhaps, more than in
the "Parsifai." MIR. Sternberg gave a COM
plete recNal of the opera. A description of
the story of the opera which is founded
on the Holy Grail. was accompanied by the
pictures of the different scenes shown
with the stereopticon. The audience felt
as Cardinal Newman once expressed him.

The opera inlpreSses one with its amplitude
and it's marvellous Interpretation. Its great
and noble theme is wrought out on lines

when under the spell of the whole.

the literary feature. Mr.. Sternberg gave

PRICES MUST GO UP
WINDOW GLASS MANUFACTURERS
SAY THEY MAKE NO PROFIT.
Thirty-One of Them Meet in This
City-Advances Shut Down
Inevitable.

lirty-one manufacturers of window
glass were at the Bates House yesterday
to consider the interests of the trade. The
price of glass continues very low, buyers
admit, and is fully ten points below the
normal price at which there can be profit
The results of the meeting were kept a
profound secret, but 1t leaked out that the
window glass association has determined
either to raise prices or close down. To close
down, however, means a large loss and
to continue at present prices means a little
loss every day. Some of the members said
that the only thing left to do was to raise
prices as to pass the margin where
profit begins. Another meeting will be held
April Is, at Pittsburg, and a shutdown or
decided advance is expected about May l.
1t is said the situation has reached a point
where the interest of one is seen to be
the common interest of the business and
that every time they meet the members
'get closer together" as one member ex-
pressed 1T. The former attempt to unite
upon a stiff price admitting of profit was
defeated, it is said, by the Hartford City
Company, but at this meeting the Hartford
City people were the first to arrive and are
ready to join in the movement.

SPRINKLING THE CAR TRACKS.
Water Company VIII Make No Re-

The Board OF Works is endeavoring to de-
wise plan whereby the streets between the
street car tracks can be properly sprinkled
this summer. The street car company has
been asked TO prepare tank cars to be run
by electricity for the purpose of sprinkling
the track The most serious question in the
way OF such an arrangement was the. price
at which the company could secure water
from the water company. Yesterday +. A.
w. Davis, of the water company, appeared
before the board and agreed to furnish
water for this purpose at the same rate
that is paid by the regular city sprinkiers.
and said the company would erect pipes or
put in mains wherever it was found neces-
sary for the proper filling OF the tanks.

PAID Up LOAN STOCK
IMPORTANT ORAL ARGUMENT IN ST.
PREME COURT TO-DAY.
Suit to Keep such stock on Tax DupIi-
cate-What Acknowledgement
VIII Do.

An oral argument will take place in the
Supreme Court tomorrow on the subject
of taxation of building and loan stock of
prepaid or paid-up character. There
two cases, one entitled Dennison, Auditor,
VS. Terry and the other is in the form of
a criminal procedure, in which the State,
on the part of the prosecuting attorney.
brings an action against Bracket who is
charged with making a false return of
property in the omission of some paid-up
stock. Both cases come up from Fulton
county.
The civil suit is against the auditor to
restrain him from placing on the duplicate
the assessment of certain paid-up stock as
omitted property. The holders of the stock
contend that the statutes exempt such
stock; second, that they did not receive the
county assessor knew as much about the
stock before the Board of Review met as
he did afterwards The only question the

loan law of 1887, under which all property

from shareholders in excess of amounts

argue the case wherever the States inter-
ests are at stake He said yesterday that
under the law it is entirely possible, with
out trickery subterfuge, for an associa-
ton to have its stock paid up to within
one cent of the capital stock and altogether
escape taxation. The argument and the
decision becomes of interest, because, since
the Legislature adjourned, there has been
such a rush of idle capital into building
and loan associations as was never known
before, and it is quite possible that some
of it is placed in these organizations only
until the assessor calls, so as to escape
taxation for the
