ocean liner landsman is likely to be

THE SHAMROCK.

AZ One Time II Was Used For Food
In Ireland.
That the shamrock was used as diet
before 1t was adopted at the national
emblem has been conclusively demon
strated, though in proving the fact one
writer borrows from another. Very
few drew their information from per-
sonal observation. Spenser undoubted-
ly did, and he Is perhaps responsible
for the famillarizatlon of this fact to
his contemporaries. l quote the pas
sage from 1.-THE View of the Present
State of Ireland"
"Out Of every corner of the woods
and CHIMES they came creeping foorthe
upon theyr handles, for theyr legges
could not beare them. They looked
like anatomyes of death; they spake
like ghostes crying out of theyr graves;
they did eat of the dead cartons, and
yf they founde plotte of water crosses
or shamrokes there they flocked as to a
feast for the time"
This dietary use was known to the
Elizabethan dramatlsts.

French Sentiment.

A French parricide who slew his ia
Their and mother and was asked upon
condemnation what he had to say and
why sentence should not be pronounced
upon him, entreated the court to have
mercy upon a poor orphan. This tale
Is green with the moss of ages and
may not be true, but something like it
is true of a woman named Marie Gel
vet, sentenced by Paris tribunal to
twenty years Imprisonment at hard
labor for the murder of her sister.
While in court she constantly wore a
long Grape veil why do you wear
this vei?" asked one of the officials, to
which she replied that she was In
mourning for her sister, showing an
affectionate sensibility, the earlier ex-
hibition of which, however, would have
been more becoming to her even than
the garment.

ParBifal.

One of the most striking and
beautiful features in the spectacle Of
'.Parsifal'r is the flower garden scene
with its fascinating flower maidens.
This garden, as We are told In the
story. is the creation of Klingsor for
the deliberate purpose Of seducing
the Knights of the Holy Grail from
their lives of rectitue and holiness.
How well he succeeded, for time
at least. we are told in the story and
play. But it is i'll the attempted
destruction of the soul of the hero
himself, Parsifal, where klingsor
put forth his greatest efforts, and the
flower garden and its occupants are
made to play their most important
part. The garden itself is fairy like
and enchanting. Its lu1uriant
foliage and tropical plants and flow
ers of gorgeous and varied colors are
sufficient to dazzle the eye and be-
wilder the senses with their splendor
and penetrating perfume. Then
again in and out among this sea OF
Oriental color and luxuriousness,
there appears number of young and
lovely maidens who rival in beauty
of face and figure the magni6cence
and charm of their exquisite sur
roundings. The whole scene blazes
with irridescent grandeur in the
brilliant sunlight. 1t is into this
vortex of sensuous creation that the
innocent and guileless Parisfal is
lured by Klingsor, intent upon his
moral downfall. And yet we see
how this noble youth is enabled to
resist all the allurements and temp
tations that beset him. How, even
when the arch temptress, Kund!y,
now transformed into an enchantress
of wondrous beauty and voluptous-
ness. is powerless to attract him.
| We see these two arch demons, frus-
trated in their evil Vaccinations at
last resort to physical violence, fear
| full that Parsifal shall escape them.
| Klingsor hurls the sacred lance at
the head of valiant youth. 1t fails
to strike him but miraculously re-
mains suspended over his head.
Parsifal grasps the holy relic anc
with it makes the sign Of the cross
A loud crash of thunder is heard
and, as II an earthquake occurred,
the magic castle crumbles into ruins
the flower garden and all it contains
is turned into an arid waste, and
Klingsor disappears forever. Kun
dry is overwhelmed with fright and
horror, while Parsifal, holding aloft
the holy spear, springs over the ruins
of the castle and is lost to view. At

THE MIKADO DAY
Japanese Celebrate Here in Mos,
Fitting Style

Last Saturday afternoon the people
of East Greeley were treated e quite
= unique demonstration. Soou after
dinner people. were startled b. sew.
eral sharp explosions. Ever body
rushed to the door and found his
neighbors all out ON their steps as
startled as himself. 1t was son
discovered hat the old circus ground
was the scene of action. A bsauti-
ful Japanese pagoda had been
erected. which was bound around
with red and white drapinEs and
from tall pole in the middle uum-
erous bright red lanterns we're strung
to each corner OF the enclosure Be-
hind the red and white bands bombs
were being sent up at Intervals Of a
few minutes. High up in tie air
these bombs exploded, throwing out
different brilliant pieces, large fish
at one time and great serpent at
another. One piece was a red and
white parachute or umbrella with
flags Of the United States and Japan
attached to it like the tail of great
kite. These flags. twelve or fifteen
in number, were fastened at inter-
vals Of five or six feet and we're
weighted on the lower edge. They
were IA by 20 inches in size. The
stars and stripes had the place of
honor next to the parachute, then
tie red flag with large white cross
of Japan, thus alternating to the end
OF the long line. This beautiful
trailing thing, made of the softest
paper, f1oated away, gradually de-
scending on the next block where a
crowd of laughing and shouting boys
was ready to receive it.
And what was the occasion Of all
this? The Emperor OF Japan had
reached his 6fty-hfth birthday and
his loyal subjects in Greeley were
celebrating the event.
Early in the evening the lanterns
were lighted above the pagoda. great
balls of fire quivering in the night
air. Then followed a brilliant dis
play of fireworks which lasted for an
hour. The lanterns were then low
cred when they seemingly started in
a race in various directions, but each
had small boy attached. a hun
dred and twenty-five bombs had been
used in this celebration.
George Hokasono, graduate of
Harvard, had charge of the affair.
He made speech, referring to the
amicable relations between Japan
and the United States. FOLLOWED by
