Barlow X Wilson's MinStrels..

When either the politician or the tourist swing around the circle they rarely ever describe more than an arc. It is your hustling, irrepressi- ble minstrels like the indomitable Barlow X Wilson, of the Barlow Wilson minstrels, who leads the genuinely strenuous lie and tours the country for 43 unremitting weeks on continuous stretch. The Thespians groan over few one night stands during the season, but these pioneers in minstrelsy are ever on the move and knOweth with his 35 performers, preliminary and running expenditures, that he must cover vast territory to place the figures on the profitable side of the recording ledger. We read of Bar low & Wilson during the season at Portland, Me-, Portland, Ore, Wash ington City and Washington State, New York, New Orleans, Texas and
 
 British Columbia and marvel at his rapid journeyings from "pillar to post. and what a vast amount of work he constantly accomplishes. Street parades, rehearsals and per- formances many times twice -ylaily and the constant journeyings, jour- neying almost the year round. In the words of the song, Same thing over again." until the end of the season and the band plays "Home, Sweet Home."
 Barlow & Wilson's minstrels will appear at the Elks theater on Thurs day, February 2S, with the best company they ever carried.

FOR SWIMMING
 CHAMPIONSHIP

New York, Feb. 23.-H. J. Handy of Chicago, who holds most of the American swimming records not held by c. M. Daniels, will meet his rival at 1000 yards at the dual meet of thie Chcago Athletic Asso- c;ation and the New York Athletic Club here tonight. The rivalry be- tween Handy and Daniels has reach ed an acute stage and it is expected that the record will go. Daniels has few, if any, equals in the world at sprinting distances, while Handy is better over the distance. There are other important events sched- uled for the meet, including 50 and 100 yards championship races. The entries are very large and there is little doubt that the event will be the greatest in the history of Amer ican Swimming.

MINISTER WEDS
 DEBUTANTE

Washington, Feb. 23.-Senor Louis rorea, minister from Nicara- qua to the United States, and Miss Ilah Bell Fleming, daughter of Col
 and Mrs. Robert J. Fleming, were married at noon today in the home of the brides parents in this city. When the announcement of the en- 4a9ement was made recently Wash ington society was surprised, as Miss Fleming, who is not 19 years old has just graduated from fash ionable seminary and was a debut ante of the present season. Miss Fleming. who is an heiress, was one of the most popular girls of the years set. is an accomplished lin- gaist, and has already been involv- ed in romance dating back to her school days The romance of the Niearaguan and the beautiful Mrs. Dunlop Jordan of Macon, Ga., is still subject of comment. Senor Corea is said to be twenty-twO years his brides senior and is regarded as one of the handsomest men in the diplomatic corps at Washington.

The Story of "Parsifal."

The story of "Parsifal" is one of intense interest. In the Castle of the Grail, secluded from the haunts of men, two holy relics, the spear and the cup, are guarded by band of heaven appointed knights. An fortas, their king, trusting rather to physical than spiritual strength, goes forth against Klischnor, a magician of evil repute, whose chief desire is to encompass the downfall of the knights and the destruction of all holy things The fall of An fortas comes through Kundry, half woman, half witch, who under the spell of Klinschor is transformed into 1e1ns O; ~transcendent beau- ty. Klinschor secures the sacred spear carried by Anfortas and ;n- flicts herewith an incurabla wound in the kn.g.t's side. which ble,ads afre5a wit1 every celebration af the holy rite.
 Torn by physical weakness and the bangs of remorse, Anfortas' condition becomes desperate, when, at length, in answer to his supplica- tions, celestial voice is heard promising him relief
 Parsifal appears upon the scene, a mere youth, ignorant of the ways of the wolia, yet nobly born. Kiln schor fears that he may prove to be the Redeemer sent to heal An fortas' wound and prepares for him snares of most seductive kind :; Beautiful gardens, maidens of won drous charm, and Kundry herself transformed by magical means into an enchanting nymph, who tempts Parsifal, not by sensual means alone, but by influences which tra- verse the whole scale of human emo- tiOn.
 Against all these allurements. however, Parsifal is proof and his purity triumphs. Mad with disap- pointment and rage, Klinschor hurls the sacred spear at Parsifal, but instead of piercing it miracu- lously hangs suspended above the head of the youth, who, grasping it. makes the sign of the cross, wfereupon the magicians' spells are broken. The garden with it's won- derful beauty falls to ruin, and Parsifal is seen, high up on the broken wall, triumphantly waving the hoN spear thus recovered from the powers of evil.
 Again the scene changes to the great hall of the Castle, and once more Anfortas is borne in upon his weary litter. The Knights demand that he uncover the Grail, but with each uncovering his agony increas- es, he refuses and in paroxysm ot despair, calls upon the knights to slay him and end his misery. Un- observed, Parsifal now approaches bearing the sacred spear. He touch es the wound and immediately it is healed. Then he proclaims himself king of the Grail and orders it un- covered. Ascending the altar. he raises the sacred vessel in all it's crimson beauty. The knights kneel to do him homage; Kundry dies at his feet in the joy of repentance, and white dove descending from the dome of the hall. hovers oter his head, while knights and sing CTS sound hymn of praise.
 The story is. grand exposition of the sorrow. and suffering of hu- manity and redemption of Purity Faith and Love.
 This famous mystic drama will be seen at the Elks theater on Fri day, March 8.
