ADJUSTMENTS.

Not direct from broadway but fresh
from laurels won during its engagement
in Brigham City. .'Parsifal'' came TO the
Salt Lake theatre last evening
II might be remarked. in passing that
II advantage had been taken of this tour
of the Box Elder circuit to recruit few
Iarm hands, several places in the cast
might have been braced up amazingly,
beginning with the stellar role
owing TO the fact that the play has
been seen here before. an extended re-

been there before had warned their

Possibly some of the persons who attend
ed last evening expected to witness some
thing musical. They didn't. An attempt
is made to appeal in prose-very prosy
prose-to the religious and the mystic in
human nature. This may be successful
with some hearers, but last evening the
audience persisted in snickering when
they should have been solemn and deeply
impressed.
In casting about for a word of praise
II might be said that Miss Winifred
Burke. who takes the part of Kundry
has a pretty face and figure and an at

little to say. and declines TO say that
For any person who is religiously and
mystcally inclined. and who has gained
an impression that "Parsifal' is worth
seeing, here is a word of advice: Instead
of paying money for theatre tickets, get
a copy of Millions Paradise Lost" and
take that up for an evenings reading
In that way you can get some real lit

Noted National Figure.

Washington, Nov. 9-Senator Car
mack, during his senatorial career from
1901 TO 1907 made a number of brilliant
speeches. Although inclined to be sar-

made many friends in congress among
both Democrats and Republicans, who
admired his fearlessness and his intel
lectual attachments.
Perhaps the most notable speech dur
ing his four years in the lower house
was his brilliant effort in his own de-

the present governor of Tennessee, con-
tested Carmack's seat. During his con-
