ming this afternoon the Burbank stock
company will present the world-famous
melodramatic triumph, Ten Nights in
a Barroom." This will be the first
time the play has been seen in Los
Angeles in almost five years. The first
presentation of this wonderfully popu-
lar play was made in New York city
in the year 1858, from which year the
success of the play may be dated. In
the coming production William Des-
mond will be seen in role entirely
different from any he has essayed
since he has been leading man of the
clever stock organization. The role of
Joe Morgan, the drunkard, is a pow
erfully drawn character sketch. Many
noted actors have played the part, and
all admit that the role offers excep-
tional scope for splendid acting. Mr.
Desmond will doubtless surprise pa
irons of the Burbank the coming week.
Blanche Hall will play Mrs. Morgan,
the drunkard's wife. The other Bur-
bank favorites have been carefully cast
Little Fay BANTER will play Mary Nor
gan. A matinee will be given Satur-
day.

BELASCO THEATER-(Advan An

mark the greatest production ever
presented on the stage of the Belasco
theater. The drama of "Parsifal,"
which relates the story of the famous
opera is too we'll known to need re-
peating. Over it New York and the
eastern states have gone wildly enthu-
siastic. 1t Is the work of one of the
greatest geniuses the world has ever
known, and "Parsfal" is the crown
ing triumph of the memory of Rich
ard Wagner. 1t is story built around
the medieval legends of the Holy Grail,
and it has been praised alike by the
press and pulpit. For this production
there has been added twenty-four ex-
ira people to the Belasco orchestra,
and large number of singers have
been imported from San Francisco.
OF the latter Harold Forman, the won
derful boy soprano, has already made
himself a favorite here. The produc-
ton has been under the personal direc-
ton of Frederic Belasco. A large corps
of artists have been engaged on the
preparation of the elaborate scenic eff

Danger When the Bullet Fails to
stop the Brute's Advance.
The disturbing element in hunting
elephant or seladang or rhino has been
always to me at least the feeling OF
uncertainty as to whether or not 1
could stop the animal if l wounded it
and it charged me. as it did on an av-
erage of once in three times.
Based on my experience, therefore, |
should place the elephant first and the
rhino third after the seladang, which
is fully as formidable as the Cape buf-
falo and is miscalled the bison all over
India. Each of these animals is dan
gerous on different and individual
grounds. The elephant, though. less
likely to charge than any of the others,
is terrifying because of his enormous
strength. which stops at no obstacle,
and the extreme difficulty of reaching
vital spot, especially if, with trunk
tightly coiled. he is coming your way.
| know of no sensation more awe
some than standing ankle deep in
clinging mud in dense cover, with the
Jungle crashing around you as though
the entire forest was toppling. as the
elephant you have wounded comes
smashing his way in your direction.
The seladang is dangerous partly be-
cause of the thick jungle he seeks
when wounded, but more especially
because of his tremendous vitality and
his usual though not invariable habit
of awaiting the hunter on his tracks
and charging suddenly, swiftly and
viciously. 1t requires close and hard
shooting to bring down one of these
six foot specimens of oriental cattle.
The danger of the tiger and of the
lion is in their lightning activity and
ferocious strength. But you have the

Central African Elephants.

elephants in the swamp country of
central Africa writes traveller, "are
different in their habits from those
which inhabit the forests. In the
marshes they stand throughout the
day immersed in water up to their bel
lies and with their backs almost hid
den by the high growth of reeds. Here
they can always be traced by the white
egrets which invariably accompany
them and which feed upon the ticks
and other insects with which their
hides are infested. A herd of ele-
plants moving through dense grass
can be kept in sight even though they
themselves are invisible by the f1utter-
