when Parsifal has regained the sacred
spear. another wonderful TRANSFORMED
ton takes place. Standing on the
parapet in the real overlooking Kun
dry, her hosts of beautiful flower girls
and the evil Knight Klingsor, Parsifal
proclaimS the power of good over evil,
and making the sign of the cross with
the spear he bids the Magic Garden
with it's inhabitants to "begone." A
binding crash Of thunder and light
ming, accompanied by an incessant
rain of fire, finally abating to a low
rumble out from which is heard the
low strains of the soul-stirring Parsi-
fal redemption" music, leaving Parsi-
fal still standing triumphant in the
rear; before him is a scene of utter
devastation and waste. The massive
castle has crumbled into a shapeless
heap, the flowers have withered into
decay and the bodies Of Klingsor and
the flower maidens lay strewn on the
ground. Kundry alone survives with
Parsifal and as the curtain descends
the mighty chords of the redemption
music swell the air.

The
"ParsifaI."

PdfSlfaI."
Among the most imposing and elaD-
crate stage pictures in Messrs. Martin
and Emery's production of "Parsifal,'
which is scheduled to appear at the
Jefferson Theater Sunday, Nov. 20,
are those disclosed in the third act.
The rise of the curtain reveals the
interior of Klingsors castle in the
north of Spain. The huge dismal
cloisters are hung with stuffed owls,
snakes and other symbols of the art
OF necromancy. Klingsor is discov-
cred in the center of the stage, a
green glow of light covering his face,
and his impish servant, Dwerger, grow
cling at his feet waiting to do his
bidding. The beautiful Kundry is
commanded to appear, making her
entrance through a cloud of vapor.
She is forced to accede to K!ingsor's
evil demand of Turing the good
knight Parsifal into the Magic Gar
den and there attempt his downfall.
Calling his power of necromancy, his
in;ps and devils to attend him, he
proceeds to create out of the soInbre
gloom of his castle a scene of bril-
lance, seductiveness and allurement.
A crash of thunder throws the scene
in darkness, and springing into vision
like a flashing meteor is the Magic
Garden. The scene change is accom-
plished in less than four seconds, and
requires the services Of fourteen ex
ira stage hands beside the special
crew Of eight men carried by the
company, necessitating the most elab-
crate mechanical equipment ever sent
on tour. At the close Of this scene,

Naturalization Problems

The chief of the naturalization bu-
reau at Washington says Turks can
not be naturalized because they are
not white, and yet they are whittier
Than Arabs who are considered white
enough to become naturalized. The
bureau also excludes Hindoos who GER
tainly are in closer touch with the
Caucasian race than Arabs. The nat
uralization bureau further confuses
the situation by holding that Asiatics
cannot be naturalized, but thatSiberiaas
can be, although Siberians may be
Mongolians, or Tartars down to plain
Russians. Altogether the naturaliza-
ton bureau is not able to say just
what a white man is.
The power of naturalization is vested
by the constitution in Congress, but
Congress has, by statute, conferred
this power upon state courts of record
having common law jurisdiction. A
state cannot, however, admit an alien
to citizenship in the United States
except in the manner prescribed by
congress, although state may admit
aliens to the rights and privileges Of
citizenship in state matters and state
bounds. But after all Congress de-
cides who may be naturalized in the
broadcast sense, and the chief of the
naturalization bureau at Washington
is having hard time in trying tt
decide who is white man under the
federal statutes and who is not.

Conservatism and the Amendment

The good roads amendment went to
the people almost unopposed. Public
sentiment alike in town and country
was overwhelmingly favorable to 1t,
and yet its majority was not large.
Conservative voters do not take kind
ly to amendments of the fundamental
law. AS a rule they decline to tinker
with it, preferring to abide by it until
the time comes to call convention
and make a new constitution.
This conservative sentiment will, it
Is believe, defeat the amendment that
proposes to weave into the constitution
police regulations. The fair-minded,
cool-headed voter will reject constitu-
tional prohibition when the state al
ready has drastic statutory prohibit
ton. The pending amendment offers
prohibition in general sense. which
the state already has, and a prospec-
tive espionage of the home, which
the state does not want.
The issue will be decided by the
| qualified electors of Alabama, not more
perhaps than 100000 in number, and a
majority of these men are as a rule
conservative. prudent and thoughtful.
This is why the pending proposition
will be defeated. Wild campaigning
cannot decide it. The common sense
Of the limited electorate will decide it,
and that is just why it will be defeated.
1t lacks originality in its first section,
and 1t strikes at the sanctity of the
home In its second section. The con-
/ servative voters of Alabama will reject
the first section because 1t is unneces-
sary and superfiuous, and the last
section because it Is unwise and revo-
lutionary. They will stand by the con-
stitption as it is, and do their fighting
ovdr the liquor question in the legisla-
TIDE and before the people, maintain
inn in this way public sentiment that
with gender the solution of the problem

THE LEDGER AND WINES.

From the birmingham Ledger.
For nearly Is years the Birmingham
Ledger has advocated the culture of the
grape in the hill counties, and advocated
the making of wine from those grapes as
a temperance measure. This is known to
all the people of upper Alabama
When the question seriously arose a few
weeks since as to whether the law now
forbids making domestic wines, and
whether the amendment we are going to
adopt will forbid 1t, The Ledger owed
it to the people It had advised to plant
grapes and make wines to tell them that
1t thought the law does forbid it, and that
the amendment will forbid It,
The Ledger supported prohibition, be-
cause the time had come when the open
saloon had to be closed. The Ledger now
supports the proposed amendment prohib-
iting the making and the sale of liquors
because it is considered by the friends Of
prohibition as being necessary to keep the
liquor business out of Alabama
The Ledger first of all the papers in
the state advocated statewide prohibition
and a quick settlement of the liquor ques-
| ton.
The anti amendment forces are now
| circulating the little editorial opinion on
homemade wines as document on their
SIDE The little article was necessary to
the safety of people The Ledger had in
duoed to plant hillsides in grapes. 1t was
| to them the word of friend to keep them
from violating law already in existence.
| 1t Is impossible to prevent an adversary
| from twisting words In campaign, but
| The Ledger feels that the people Of Ala
bama know that 1t is first of all honest
and square. When conflicting statements
were made hundreds of people with small
vineyards looked to The Ledger for an
| opinion that they could rely upon.
There are two ways to avoid the drastic
part of the law, and one is for the grand
for the governor to pardon those who
make wine. Several judges have indicated
this as a way out, and the governor has
distinctly said that he will pardon amy
woman convicted of making wine. So
there seems to be no danger from the law.
The Ledger has for weeks. advised its
| readers to vote for the amendment, and
| 1t SO advises them now. We can vote
this amendment in, and after we get the
liquor business settled, we can then make
some wine laws to construe and be In
line with the constitution, and not VIOLA
| lion of It. The state is ours, the consti-
| tuition is ours, and the statute laws are
ours, and we can do with them as we
please.
There will be no indictments for making
| wines in the homes, according to the pres
ent understanding, and the whole subject
| is settled.
