Words will not do justice to Mr..
Hirsch's work. One could not witness
the pageant without being elevated to
unusual heights. There is the sense of
fitness of things in the vastness and SIM
plicity of the setting in keeping with the
perfect proportions of the Parthenon.
There will be the feeling of being close
to nature, as the sheep Craze in quiet
content, as the doves circle in the air
and finally alight on the Parthenon.
There will be an aesthetic delight pro-
duced by the graceful movements, of
Wsshington's own daughters, in the
classic robes, with gariands of flowers.
There will be realization of man being
ruled by the divine in the conflict be-
tween justice and mercy.
Popularity Worldwide.
For those who delight in music, the
choruses will be of interest. A special
score has been arranged by Mr.. F. Ar
thur Henkel, and the musical numbers,
led by Mr.. Foster, and accompanied by
a large orchestra of half hundred in
struments, will add to the drama, as we'll
as the huge spectacular features, and the
thrilling chariot races on the circuit
course around the Parthenon and direct
ly in front of the audience in the amphi-
theater of the semi-circle.
The entire country has apparently
gone in for their pageant seasons. and
all over the continent as we'll as abroad
the pageants are becoming a yearly re-
Taxation to pleasure. an amusement to be
enjoyed out in the open air.
While the festivities are going on
here, second Greek drama, entitled
The Mysteries of Thanatos," also by
Mr.. Hirsch, is being produced in Nash
vile, Tenn, where "The Fire Regained"
was first tried out as pageant and was
found to be so successful that it prom
ises to become yearly institution there.
In St. Louis there is large pageant j
in action entitled "The St. Louis Pa
geant and Mosque" in which the differ
ent scenes in the various stages OF tho
city's historic development are depicted,
but there are few cities that will attempt
a pageant on so large a scale as The

chariot race. Four white horses are
driven by white-robed maiden, and
four black chargers by black-garbed
priest. Finally the black wins, and de-
spair seizes the virgins.
Execution Is Halted.
When the time for execution arrives,
there is procession of priests, maidens,
and attendants, singing the death chant.
The one who is doomed is bound upon
the back of an OK. led by four Numid-
ian slaves. The high priest puriies his
sword in water, air, fire, and earth, and
is just ready to make the sacrifice when
Hermes appears on the top of the Par
thenon. and with mighty voice stays the
proceedings. From high Olympus he
has seen FIVE runners, and they are near
ing their goal

ahead, and they enter, hideous of aspect
When near the maiden, they begin fight

ward. Athene's messenger comes last,
and he, too. is exhausted The fiery one
regains his feet and lifts his hammer to
strike him The latter raises Athene's
shield, and the Fire gods runner, seeing
his own reflection in it, is overcome. As
he drops his hammer it is seized by the
goodly youth, who strikes the rock. The
spark thus generated. kindles the altar
anew, and fire is regained." The youth
releases the maiden, who is really Athene
herself She mounts to the altar and
stands triumphant in the midst of the
fame.

At the present time in Washington,
at the corner of Sixteenth and v streets
there is being erected large amphithe-
alter with a seating capacity of 5000.
This theater, with its stage in the form
of ssmi-circle, will have background
of huge pillars and the accompanying
effects to take on the appearance of the
old Greek Parthenon, and on its Sidney

local men, and the fifteen hundred par

who live in Washington. The only out
side features, if any, will be the racing
chariots, two teams of four horses each,
that during the action of the play are
brought in for a real race scene, one
team driven by young woman and one
team by a young man. Everything else
Is carried out by local persons, with a
large chorus of some 600 that is under
the direction of Percy S. Foster The
wood nymphs, priests, and priestesses,
vestral virgins, satyrs, etc, comprise
nearly 1000 people, and are at present
being rehearsed daily at the old Build

sordid to mention finances IN connection
with festival that is to be so artistic,
but when one learns that the prepara-

some idea of the magnitude of the un-

before him. She tells him that in
Athens the altar fire has gone out, and
that one of the thirty virgins is falsely
accused of unchastity. The rulers of
the lower regions have conspired against
her and she will be put to death if he
does not 60 to her rescue. Four run

the shepherd must overcome them in the
race. As willing defender, he mounts
Pegasus and is away, with Athens
shield on his arm. -.. --'
In the meantime, the high priest, with
attendants, appears before the altar and
seeks the will of the gods, in regard
to the maiden. When voice returns
a mystic answer, he causes all priests
and priestesses to be summoned. In
the ceremonies that follow, the male
chorus constantly demands justice and
the female chorus pleads for mercy.
Demons come from the underworld and
through their weird incantations try to
detect the guilty maiden. When one of
the number becomes hysterical, her guilt
is apparently confirmed, and she is con-
demned to death.

ager Kid Taylor.

Superior, Wis, July 28.-BiH Dunn,
Superior's veteran second baseman,
and Shortstop Roy Cults, a vet OF
last years team, have been uncon-
ditionally released by Manager Tay-
lor.
Announcement of the retirement OF
the veteran Red o infelders came
as a surprise to most of the fans.
Dunn's place is taken by Kavanaugh,
a former WauSau player in the WI.
league.
George Walla, another new player,
Joined the SoX at Fargo today. Mickey
MCGEE nay be sent to short to fill
the place made vacant by Roy's re-
lease and Walla placed on third base.
The disposal of Dunn and Cullis is
the second big shakeup made by Tay-
Tor since the Kid too the manage
ment of the club. Taylor will make
desperate efforts on the road to bring
n ooX up a few notches in the lad
der so that the big last ditch fight
can be made when Superior returns
for it's last stand on the home
grounds.
Dunn has several offers from other
teams in the league and may go to
Winnipeg, Fargo or Winona. William
has been a member Of the Superior
club since 1912 and has played con-
slstentiy good ball during the sea-
sons he has been with the Sox. He
is a hard luck hitter. Despite this
he has been one of the best pinch
hitters the club has ever had.
Dunn is n of the most popular
players in the Northern league, both
with the fans Il h players. He is
a favorite in every city on the cir
cult.
Cults is also popular with the To-
cal fans and many of the bugs late
to see h game little shortstop leave

TO let the two men go but figures
that a change of some kind is neces-
sary to get the o out of the rut.

The passing of Collins to the Virginia

a short inforced rest. but this did no
good and he was slated to be sold or
traded. In exchange for Luke Collins
