The legend Of "Parsifar' crystallises
around two mystic objects. spear and
n cup or chalice, called In medieval
speech grail" The old romances loved
to weave song and story about these
sacred objects. They used to tell how
the Roman governor. Pontius Pflate.
gave them to Joseph. OF Arnmathea-
That spear they accounted to bs ths
cruel shaft which pierced tho heart Of
Jesus as He hung dying on Calvary.
That crystal cup they dreamed Of as
the chalice which he had not used In the
parting supper. and In which was
caught the blood which streamed from
His wounds as loving hands removed
the body from the cross. This blood
dipt spear and this hallowed grail haunt
the thought Of the Middle Ages as the
emblems Of that life-giving and redemp-
tive energy bestowed upon the world
through the death on the cross From
them streamet talismanic virtue. The
touch OF the spear wrought health.
Sight OF the grail gave life. They elowed
with light celestial. The devotee who
gazed upon them found the shadows
lifted from his heart, They wcrs
charged with heaven-born vigor which
rejuvenated the wasting springs Of NOR
tai life. When they were unveiled a
superhuman vitality was impaired
which could more than Offset the drain
Of mortal years.

OGDEN, April la-The work OF laying
the tracks on Lincoln avenue by Mr.
Simon Bambergcr, president of the Salt
Lake & Ogden railroad, which is destined
to come to Ogden, and which Mr Bam-
berger states Will be here at once, Is COM
pleted. The tracks are extended from
Iwenty-ntth street south TO Ihirty-third
and on Lincoln SO far as asphalt pave
ment Is laid, and the ties have been
sunk Into the pavement. lt appears that

ment OF the street VIII be maintained by
adjusting the existing cobblc work be-
tween the telegraph, electric light and
telephone poles a great quantity OF
gravel was hauled In and is TO be used
Tor the hlling-Just why IS not known.
Who Hauled the Freight.
There has been considerable specuIa-
ton since the early hour on Sunday morn
ing when Mr.. Bamber6er laid his rails on
Lincoln avenue, as to how he got his rails
and ties into Ogden, that is. over what
road they came, and where he got his
forces or men. Inquiry at the oregon
Short Line Offices proved beyond any
qucsuon that they did not come over that
line. The Rio Grande local officials were
not quite so explicit They ayerred that
they were hauling freight for any one.
and were hustling for the business but
had hauled the Bamberger stuff TO Og
don. and. OF course they had no Enowl-
edRo as to whether or not Rio Grande
forces had been used to lay the track.
Are Rio Grande Rails.
1t is learned. however. beyond any doubt
that the rails and ties used in the CON
struction came over the Rio Grandc to
Ogden. which is entirely proper II Mr..
Bamberger chose To have them shipped
over that road. 1t is significant though.
that the rails and ties are or were, the
property of the Rio Grande The rails,
II is said are the Rio Grande standard
light rails. and the ties are alleged TO
have been taken from the surplus stock Of
that company.
Points Of Speculation.
The elements OF interest to the Ogden
people. who are anxious that road be
built TO Ogden canyon, and who have been
listening to talk of extension that they
characterize now as hot air. is that they
want TO know who is going to build u
read, The facts related about the laying
or rails on Lincoln avenue by Mr. Bam-
berger suggest that the alliance of the
promoter OF the Salt Lake & Ogden rail
road, which, by the way. has not yet
reached Ogden, with tho Rio Grapse. is
almost proven. The assumption In ogden
Is that the Rio Grande has been acquiring
tho trans continental lines that is des-
tined to construct to Utah, and one in
which the Gould and Hill interests Will DC
in harmony, This points only to the Bur
