PARSIFAL.

The story of "Parsifal" which will
be given its first production in the
Salt Lake Theatre, February 1920 and
81, abounds in poetic beauty and fas-
cinating mysticism. Chiefly it is based
upon the legend of the search or the
Holy Grail, that sacred chalice in
which the blood of the Savior, as he
was passing into eternal life upon the
Cross, was said to have been caught.
The Grail is supposed to have been
committed to the care of Titurel, a
pure King of the Great Knights, who
gathers about him many followers de-
voted to his service.

devil who endows him with a knowl-
edge of magic that enables him to
create an enchanted garden peopled
with beautiful flower-like maidens for
the seduction of the Knights of the
Grail. One after another they fall
victims to the temptations of Klins-
chor's sirens, till Anfortas tries to
break the enchantment, and goes out
against Klinschor, armed with the sa-
cred spear which pierced the Savior's
side.
But he too succumbs to the volup-
tuous wiles of Kundry, beautiful wo-
man over whom Klinschor has at
times complete control. The spear is
taken from Anfortas and he is mortal

The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1906-12-20

Indianapolis dispatches state that
the liquor legislation during the COM
ing session of the General Assem-
bly, promises to bring together some
strange bedfellows. There will be
some Republicans who will fight
tooth and nail any and all measures
designed to increase the cost of a
county license from 800 to $1,000,
and there will be other Republicans
who will do their miynr1est to bring
about just that thing. Similar con-
ditions will exist in the ranks OF
Democratic legislators. Some of
them are pledged to high license and
the extension of the remonstrance
period from two to FIVE years, while
others told the voters of their re-
spective districts before election that
they would exert their efforts toward
no liquor legislation at all. Such dif-
ferences of opinion in the ranks of
both parties are expected to result in
the partial, and perhaps total, ,viping
out of party lines when liquor legis-
lation comes up and to divide the
vote on a basis of the Legislators per-
sonal views or the wishes of their
constituents at home Certain it is
at this time that it will be next to
impossible for either party to make
caucus measures OF the more drastic
liquor bills that may be advocated.

MURDER OF SARAH scHAFER
George w Harris, In Jail at Goshen,
~ Says He Slew Bedford School
Teacher.


George w. Harris, a notorious
criminal, who has served sentences
in the Ohio State and Indiana State
Penitentiaries, Wednesday night
made detailed, written anil signed
confession to Deputy Sheriff Chatten
and Court Bailiff Gowing, at C ,shen,
in which he says that he il the slayer
of Miss Sarah Schafer, the Bedford,
Ind, Lstin teacher who was murder
ed almost three years ago.
Harris is in the custody of the of
ficers on the charge of having at
tempted to murder Police Sergeant
Whiteman, an Elkhart officer, about
ten days ago. Whiteman was n the
act of arresting Harris and taking
him to the Police Station, wien he
pulled revolver from his pocket and
shot the officer in the leg. Wednes-
day afternoon Harris was arraigned
in the Circuit court at Goshen and
entered a plea of not guilty. Poor
Advocate Church of Elkhart was ap-
PORTED by the Court to defend him,
he being without means of defense
To the turnkey at the county jail
and to Church, Harris said that he
was guilty of the nurder of Sarah
Schafer and that he HAD reached the
end of his career. in crime and that he
was willing to die if the cap was
pulled over his head at once and he
went to the, gallows. Lawyer Church
was a schoolmate of Sarah Schafer,
the murdered school teacher, and he
and the turnkey at once communicate
ed with the deputy sheriff, who, with
the bailiff, at once began work on
Harris and got a confession
After sweating him for several
hours they succeed in getting writ
ten detailed account of what he says
is the way Miss Schafer met her
death Harris says he went from
Bedford to Louisville, KY, and there
me- Asa White of St. Louis.
According to the confession, White
told Harris that he had married
woman in St. Joseph, Mich, and that
he wanted to get rid of her, and ask
ed him if he would do the job, tend
ering him five 800 bills in payment.
There were several theories adj
vanced for the motive in the murder
of Sarah c. Shafer at the time when
the terrible crime was first brought
to light.
The first, theory on which an in
nocent man was accused, tried and
acquitted, was criminal assault.
The second was mistaken identity,
theory believed because of the in
nocence and popularity of the victim.
The third was that murder had
been committed to secure at the hand
of an Employed william letters which
the girl was said to have carried hab-
itlIally in her shirt waist bosom. This
story was borne out by the imprint
of bloody hand on her corset cover
and the absence of ALL papers she
usually carried inside her shirt waist.
A story less credited was that the
assassin had been hired to kill her
because she possessed discriminating
knowledge against the author of the
crime
