The lttle signs lettered "Parada'
in red that are being seen all over
the city, refer to the entertainment
which will be given for the benefit
of the Y. NJ. c. A. at the Grand
Opera House for four nights, be-
ginntg Tuesday, April 13. Parada Is
a spectacular musical production, or
Carnival OF Opera, and as the name
implies, is a dazzling succession OF
brilliant dances, catchy songs. Choir
us and tableau. The music is OF
both operatic and popular character
and the participants are one and
all from Marion. The Parada is in
four a9ts, over two hundred young
men, women and children taking
part in its brilliant spaialities. The
four acts represent "Fairyland, D
"Patriotism,r .Roman Revelries," 3"
and "Oriental Splendor. " The stage
settings are appropriate and elabor-
ate, enhanced with artistic lighting
effects. The first part is strongly
operauc, besides introducing dainty
and well executed drills of the little
ones. The second part is a mill
tary scene; the third introduces a
musical band of Gypsies with lively
chorus from the Bohemian Girl and
a rollicking Gypsy dance, besides
pleasing novelties; ana the fourth
act consists of a combination OF lu-
dicrous and spectacular numbers,
each number being something of un-
usual excellence. There is a vim
and professional makeup of each
number presented, placing Parada in
striking contrast TO the usual home
talent aqairs. Rehearsals are being
daily held at the auditorium of the
Y. NJ. c. A. and give every evil
dence that Parada will be one of
the most finished and Elaborate pro-
ductlons ever offered in Marion.
| Judging from the enthusiasm a;
the rehearsals Parada Is an assured
success. The best and most capable
talen has been secured. Among the
soloists are Miss Sadie May Allen

.OLDFIELD IS THIRTY
YEARS OLD TODAY
Started Bicycle Racing When Twelve
Years of Age, and viii ceIe-
& brate Event by Banquet
Today

Barney Oldneld has a birthday to-
day. The track king is 30 years old,
but those who know him well realize
he has crowded more into those thir-
ty years than most any other profess
sional athlete.
Barney started bicycle racing when
he was but 12 years old, winning the
boys championship of Ohio during the
first season of his career. For the next
twelve years he followed the bicycle
racing game and always won his share
Of the medals and cash that rewarded
the Victors. Then he turned to auto
mobile racing and was the first man
In the world TO declare and prove that
a mile a minute could be made over a
circular track with an automobile.
So today Barney is going to cele-
brate and has invited Ben Kirscher,
the German who is to oppose him in
the big races at Ascot next Saturday
and Sunday; Fred Shaw, the Knox
Giant pilot; AL Livingston, Frank Free
and fifteen other local drivers and au-
tomobile celebrities to join him at a
monday spread that Barney promises
will last at least until after dark. Bar
ney is a good entertainer and a gen.
erous host, so those who are his guests
today will probably have cause to long
remember the occasion.
Barney has promised Walter Hempel
that he will drive his monster Benz
racer up Spring street this morning
and Jack Ripper has agreed to pay
the fine If Barney is pinched.

"slushu VS.. 4" Newsv

It is amusing to read the automobile
"slush' appearing from time to time
in local columns, as, for example, the
loudly published challenge of Barney
Oldfel1 on a Stearns to race Charles
Soules with Eddie Maier's Stearns car.
The only fellow that gets any adYer-
tising out of such a nonsensica1 propo-
sition is Eddie Maier and Eddie
doesn't need any dope" along those
lines.
The proposition is so absurd that
even the silly laugh at it. What would
be gained by a Stearns race between
Oldheld on one car and Soules on an
other Stearns? In short, the very pro-
posal is an insult to Charlie Soules,
one of the best drivers on the coast.
The bald proposition is that Oldfeld is
made to say that he can take the
same car and beat Soules with it,
which The Herald is safe in saying
Oldfeld never did say, and If he did
it should never nave been published,
for il has kept Soules from the track
on Saturday and Sunday and took the
nervy local man away to San Fran
cisco before he intended going and
deprived the public of another high
class car on the track for the two
coming big events. If Oldf1eld had
proposed to beat Soules with a "Hup"
or a Brush there might have been
some standing for the absurd dope"

CHINESE LEGATION GIRLS
ARE QUITE AMERICANIZED
Daughters of Chang Yin Tang May
Finally Participate in Capital
Gayeties

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-For the
first time in many years, in fact, as iar
back as the present generation IS aple
to remember the Chinese legation has
two Young girls who not only have
acquired an excellent English educa-
ton, but have permanently adopted
American dress. Nine. Chang Yin
Tang, wife of the newly appointed
minister, has worn American dress sew
eral years, and her daughters nave
adopted the same fashion.
1t is the purpose of the minister and
his wife to place their two daughters
in a finishing school, either in or near
washington, and it is not unlikely that
they will ultimately participate in the
social gayeties at the capital.

u. S. DEMANDS OF MEXICO
SPEEDY TRIAL FOR COOK
American in Charge of Train Robbed
Held by Authorities Responsible
for HoIdup

WASHINGTON. Dec 2O.-"Urge on
Mexico the Importance Of hurying the
trial Of James A. Cook" was in sub
stance the message telegraphed by the
state department today to the Ameri-
can ambassador at Mexico City. This
followed a conference between AS
sistant Secretary of State Wilson and
Representative Scott of Kansas.
Cook is a constituent Of Mr.. Scott.
Cook was arrested some months ago
by the Mexican government as the re-
suit of the robbery of freight train
He protested his innocence, but accord
ing to advices here was held respon-
sible because he was in charge of the
train.
Mr.. Scott advised the department
thatrailrOad men in Texas were threat
ening reprisals on Mexico by making
it uncomfortable for Mexican railroad
men entering Texas, if some action
were not speedily taken in COOK case
looking to his liberation.
