BIG TOBACCO CROP.
Bloomfeld's Acreage This Season il
 Large.

Bloomfeld's Acreage This Season IS
 ...- Large. r Reports from the tobacco district m Bloomfield would seem to indicate that tobacco growers will have successful season. The crop is beautiful in ap- psarance this year and almost e9 iret
 free from imperfeetions. while the growth is very heavy. Growers say that it is the best crop in the field Ill years. On account of the plants grow ing so large, extreme care is necessary in handling during all the various ope- rations of harvesting. ..- While Bloomfield has always been given credit for raising some of the finest tobacco in this section, it is req sonabIy certain that unless the curing process is not affected. the crop this year will be remarkable for quality.
 The cutting is now on in earnest, quite number having commenced and the Krohn Tobacco company has housed several acres, having a large force at work. .
 Among the largest growers, With the total acreage raised are: Krohn Tobac- Go eottlpd1lyr Ollt luiiuteu eISt NS, 1 ~ S

1T IS MOVING SLOWLY.
Topeka Baseball Association Requires
Support.

Owing to a misunderstanding regard
ing the date for which the meeting of
the Topeka Baseball association at the
Topeka Commercial club was called the
attendance last night was not large and
it was decided to call another meeting
for Monday night, February 10. AT. that
time the final payment upon the Mis-
souri, Valley league guarantee will have
been paid in. The association is now
on it's feet. The officers who have been
collecting the subscriptions have been
handicapped for lack of time and it has
been decided to name Stansfield's drug
store as a place where small volunteer
subscriptions may be paid There have
been many promises of financial sup
port from persons unable to give more
than from 81 to So. Money can be sent
to Stansfeld's and will be turned over
to the treasurer of the association.
There have been a number of subscrip-
tons to stock of $25 and thereabo
by merchants. 1t is expected that the
location of the baseball park will be
given out during the present week. The
inability of the baseball managers to
state definitely where the park, which
has been promised by the officers of the
Topeka Railway company, would be To-
Gated, has been something of a handi-
cap in gaining the confidence of To-
pekans who are otherwise friendly to
the league baseball proposition.
UP to the present time the efforts of
the officers of the association have been
devoted to raising the $500 necessary to
place the Topeka team on good standing
in the league, a guarantee of good faith
for the season. Now the business will
be to clothe the team and put money in
the treasury with which to pay the
players during the first few weeks Of the
season. Nine men have already been
signed and three more will be closed
with this week. President Shively of
the Missouri Valley league will an
nounce the personnel of every team in
tna league by the end of the present
week

HAVE TILL SEPTEMBER.
Teamsters Given Reprieve on Wide
Tires.

The teamsters of Topeka will have an
other reprieve from the wide tire ordi-
nance. The streets and walks committee
Monday night voted to refrain from en-
forcing the ordinance until September 1.
It may be that it is a little bit out of
the jurisdiction of the streets and walks
committee to decide whether any city
ordinance, duly passed and approved by
the courts, shall or shall not be enforced
But as a matter of actual practice the
thing can be done. Ordinances are sup
posed to be enforced when they are on
the statute books, but that is something
which depends entirely on what the city
officials want to do about it. 1t works
just as well on a wide tire ordinance as it
does on an anti-joint ordinance.
]. G. Sinner and E. B. Snyder were
the only members of the committee who
were inclined to be in favor of entirely
wiping the wide tire ordinance off the
books They thought it was no good and
ought at least to be postponed in it's
action until next winter. On advice of
City Engineer McCabe the committee de-
cided to wait till September 1, SO that the
people who haul brick will have an OPP
portunity to get their material into town
before the time limit runs on the paving
contractor
1t seems likely that next September
some other way will be found to postpone
the taking effect of the ordinance.

PARSIFAL IS COMING.
Contract for Wagnerian Musical
Drama Is Closed.

Major T. j. Anderson Monday after
noon received the contract closing the
engagement of the reinforcement pro-
duction of 'ParsifaI,'' for the benefit
of the Topeka Auditorium pipe organ
fund. It will be presented in the Aud
ltorlum on Saturday night, April 16. In
many respects the "Parsifal'' produc-
ton will be the most notable musical
event of the season in Topeka. Its
| classical character, together with the
high order of musical talent by which
1t is presented, has assured the Dam
rosch tour success. In New York city,
where the "ParsifaP opera was pre-
sented for the first time in the United
State5 on Christmas eve, last, it re-
ceived more attention than any other
production of the season and the COM
ments upon the circumstances of its
production, as well as upon the man
ner, have made the W2gnerian miracle
drama famous throughout the coun-
try.
When Wagner wrote "Parsifal' it
was understood to be his wish that its
performance be not given outside the
town of Bayreuth, and for 81 years the
name of the opera and the town have
been inSeparable. When Henry Con-
reid proposed that 'Parsifar' be pre-
scented at the Metropolitan opera house
in New York, there was opposition on
Tic par VI NdSuoIIdn WOTSnlppeTS
who asserted that sentiment against
the violation of the great composer S
Will would ruin the success of the en-
terprise. But before the first presen-
tation of the opera the seats of the
house were sold completely for fully 80
nights at prices which ran as high as
$40. The expense of the production,
which depended greatly upon wonder
full scenic effects, was enormous. But
it was financially successful.
Since the closing of the engagement
in New York city the principal singers
of the 'fParSifal" company have been
engaged for a post season lecture-con-
cert tour of the United States. The
tour is in charge of Walter Damrosch.
who has been associated in the New
York production. The company will
consist of eight or more concert sing
ers and Mr. Damrosch as lecturer. He
will give the story of the music-drama,
while the principal music of the pro-
duction is presented by the artists who
sung it in New York.
