again as distinctly medieval In it's
symbolism as "Everyman," while at
the same time as distant as the poles
from that warm human brusque, full
blooded miracle play in its atmosphere.
The miracles of "Parsifal'' are too
veilec, alien. non-human, to wound the
most delicate religious sense
Kundry washing the feet of Parsifal
offends no more than would pictured
Magdalen washing the feet of Christ in
the east window of a cathedral. The
knights of the Grail at the breaking of
bread are more humanity aloof than the
painted apostles in the Rubens Last
Supper" In fact, even as far as the
scene of the dove descending upon the
head of Parsifal almost the whole
music-drama impresses as series of
wonderful moving pictures set to mu-
sic The only situation in which the
play becomes dramatic and human is
the temptation Of Parsifal, and even
here Kundry is the incarnate strange
woman" of the centuries, type rather
than parsonage.
Altogether "Parsifal." by any ad-
mirer Of Wagner. any lover Of music,
cannot be missed.

FOLK IN FOYER
TALK ABOUT
WAGNER.
Continued From Page 1, Column 5.

ter and the mechanical and illuminative
effects serve to interest those benighted
ones who are not qualified to relish
Wagner for Wagner's sake alone-for
the art there is in Wagner's music-but
whose dollars are essential to the pay
ment of salaries. But the time is COM
ing when all men and women will de-
rive more enjoyment from listening to
Wagner with their eyes closed than can
possibly be impaired by scenic aceesso-
ries. When that time comes all men
and women viii approach a perform
ance Of 'Parsifap with reverential spirit
and there will be no need OF suppress
ing noise.''
With those words the Iong-haired
gentleman finished his beer and Depart
ed. to absorb the third act through his
auricular organs alone, and a small
man Of swart complexion puffed a
cigarette of similar hue and disdain-
fully said, Rot" He then hkened the
performance OF 'ParsifaT' to a season
of silent prayer, and declared that If it
weren't for his wife's new cloak and
her desire to display it he would have
been somewhere else at that moment
yet you impress me as a lover of
opera" 1 said, noting his Latin nativ-
ity.
"Of opera, yes" he said. "but surely
this sort of thing cannot be classified
with opera as the term is applied out
side of Bayreuth. Don't understand
me as being prejudiced against the
German school of music. Good opera
has come out of the Fatherland-such
as Mozart's Don Giovanni or Won
Weber's Die Freischutz' Wag-
nerfsm can never be universally as
similable. have no fault to find with
the singing, the Instrumentation or the
staging of this 'ParsifaP production.
1t is the opera itself that wearies
me. 1t is unnecessarily tedious In it's
present condensed form. and heaven
only knows what 1t must have been
before the condensation was accom-
plished. The music themes are too
long drawn and the action Is too
draggy. The story could be Just as
comprehensively told in one-half the
time now consumed in it's narration
Wagner's greatest fault was his in
ability to know when TO stop. Another

1t was moo Yawk's' edict that the
proper feminine apparel for Witness
ing "Parsifar' consisted of skirt and
shirt waist. but San Francisco did not
unanimously bow to the mandate.
Many cleaning shoulders were in evil
dence last night. and in the entr'acte
promenade not a shirt waist was visi-
bic. The masculine lobbyists were OF
a species different from that which
strutted its fifteen minutes between
the acts Of "Rigoletto' the previous
evening. Heavy swelldom was less
conspicuous. and music culture more
dominant. In the preservation Of the
"reverential atmosphere" neither
Queen Nicotine nor King Alcohol
was utterly neglected.

Then came Mr. Goritz as Klingsor,
the magician. Mr.. Goritz gave most
ingeniously effective portrait in melo-
dramatic key of the magician, singing
brilliantly through the part. Mr.. Blass
was the Gurnemanz, and distinguished
the role to its utmost possibilities.

One has heard much Of the evidences
Of waning powers in the "Parsifal." It
seemed yesterday the GROWN and flower
of Wagner's genius. Perhaps the mu-
sic has not the bite. the grip. the dra-
matte majesty OF some Of the earlier
work, but in the richness OF theme, in
the splendor of orchestration, and
again in the subtle weld of scene and
word and song, Wagner has done moth
ing more characteristic, nothing finer.
AS a picture play nothing lovelier
has been seen here. We got before
dinner the lake at Montsalvat, the
way there-with forest, tree and
looming rocks moving before you-to
the temple of the Holy Grail. The
temple itself, with it's fretted golden
doors, marble pillars and vista on

an unforgettable picture. Here, AM

blossoms changed into dead stick and

Carriages Wen Handled.

To the efficient work of Sergeant
German and his squad was due the
absence of confusion in handling the
carriages. Carriages from the larger
stables and carriage companies were
instructed. after discharging their
loads, to take a position facing up
Mission street from the direction OF
Third. while private conveyances were
lined up down Mission from Fourth.
The arrangement enabled two hack
loads to be taken away at once and
the crowd was speedily disposed OF.
Runners from the carriage companies
took care OF their customers. while
Sergeant German handled the private
conveyances.
