AMUE MENTS
s'parSifaI. Friday Night.

One of the most striking and
 beautiful features in fhe spectacle Of aParsifaI" is the Flower Garden scene with it's fascinating F'lowe2
 Maidens. This garden, aa we are told in the story. is the creation
 of Klingsor for the deliberate pHr- pose Of seducing tbe Knights of the
 Holy Grail from their lives of rec titnde and holiness How well he succeeded, for time at least. we are told ia the story and play But
 it is in the attempted destruction of the soul of the hero himself, Par sifal, where klingsor put forth his greatest efforts, and the Flower Gar den and it's occupants are made to play their most important part. The Garden itself is fafry-like and en- chanting. It's luxuriant foliage and tropical plants and flowers of gor- geous and varied colors are suffi- eient to dazzle the eye and bewilder the senses with their splendor and perfume. Then again in and ont among this sea of Orien- tai color and luxuriousness. there appears a number of young and lovely maidens who rival in beauty Cf HC,1 and charm of their exquisite sur roundings The whole scene blazes with irridescent grandeur in the brilliant sunlight It is into the vortex of sensuOus creation that the innocent and gnileless Parsifal 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 temptations that beset him. How, even when the arch temptress, Kun dry, now transformed into an en- chantress of wondrous beauty and voluptOusness, is powerless to at tract him. We see these two arch demons, frustrated in their evil machinations at last resort to physi- cal violence, fearful that Parsifa shall escape them. klingsor hurls the sacred lance at the head of the valiant youth. It fails to strike him
 but miraeulonsly remains suspended over his head. Parsifal grasps the holy relic and with it makes the sign of the Cross loud crash of thunder is heard, and, as if an earthquake occurred, the magic cas- tie crumbles into ruins: the Flower Garden and all it contains is turned into an arid waste, and Klingsor disappears forever Kundry is over whelmed with fright and horror
 while Parsifal, holding aloft the holy spear, springs over the ruins ot the castle and is lost to view.

CARE OF COLORED LAD.
Charity Association Discusses Means
of Providing for HeIpIes Child.

One Of the eight divisions OF the Asso-
ciated Charities held its bi-monthly con-
ference at 1722 C street northwest, head
quarters for the West End division Mrs.
Ella H. West. agent OF this division.
which covers the territory from Fifteenth
street to Rock Creek and from the river
north to the District line, submitted a
number OF puzzling human problems.
The case arousing most interest and
sympathy in the conference was that Of
an old colored woman and a colored boy
Of six. The little fellow had evidently
had a good-for-n nothing mother-nO one
knew anything of her whereabouts-and
the affectionate old anty had brought up
the child as her own. The agent reported
that he was a well-behaved Nittle boy. but
not strong; a victim Of tuberculosis. At
present the woman is without work. and
too old and feeble TO apply for the usual
positions. The question is, Shall the boy
be taken from his old guardian and
placed In an institution. or shall small
pension be raised to enable the old lady
10 go on and bring up the little fellow?
Action on the matter was postponed
pending further investigation.
