FIRST NIGHT OF "PARSIFAL."
Wagner's Genius Not Recognized by
Any but Sachs.

Any but Sachs.
When Wagner's "Parsifal' was first
performed in Baireuth, the critic Hans
Sachs was almost the only one of all
as a great work Of genius. To the
ears of the others its rude realism
sounded unmusical. They wanted
melody like that Verdi was turning out
in Italy, BiZet in Paris and a few
minor composers in their own Berlin.
But Sachs was il MAJ Of broader
mold. He heard the great music Of
"Parsifal" with unprecedented ears and
recognized the genius Of the man. He
shouted it abroad in his writings and
became furious at Il world that would
not. perhaps could not, find pleasure
in the dramatic voices of the orchestra,
its vivid cmotionalism and marvellous
appeal to the aesthetical nature that Is
in every man and M He knew
that the Germans We're merely refusing
to listen. save for melody, and finally
he told them that even in the melodic
field Wagner was the greatest Of them
all.
Sachs has written %elOquently of Wag-
ner'S melody. beside which the melody
Of the Italians is pallid, anaemic, in
significant. Only now and then, he
said. We're the Italian me!odists other
than artificial. Wagner's melody was
the spontaneous song Of a musical

most exquisite song Of praise ever
written by any man. no less a song

CAPTURING WILD ELEPHANTS,
Tame Ones Help to Drive a Whole
Herd Into Strong Palisades.

Herd Into Strong Palisades.
In view Of the vast strength pos
sessed by full grown elephants, it
seems at first sight almost incredible
that they can be captured in herds
and quickly subdued to the will OF
their masters.
At the present time. in Mysore. the
regular method Of capturing Wild
elephants Is for Il large number Of
natives to go into the jungle. some
mounted IN tanned elephants and many
on foot, and to make Il great noise and
hullabaloo, which results in driving
herds of the wild elephants into stock

This parable was spoken by Jesus
either in the house of Z%acchaeus.
somewhere in the city of Jericho
or on the road between Jericho
and Jerusalem. 1t is very probable
that the visit Of Archelaus to Rome
forms the background of the parable.
On the death of his father, Herod. Ar
chelaus made a trip to Rome to have
his title confirmed by the emperor.
Meanwhile a delegation of fifty from
Judea went to Rome and made a rep
RESERVATION of the evil deeds that had
marked the reign Of Herod and urged
that the nation should be delivered
from the t%yrannical rule Of this family.
All this took place about thirty years
previous to the time when Jesus refer
red to it. Jesus was speaking to 4
company of enthusiastic pilgrims who
were on their way to Jerusalem to at
tend the passover. "Kingdom of God
should Immediately appear Many of
the company had the delusion that the
Messianic hope would be realized as
soon as Jesus entered the Holy City.
This parable was spoken to dampen
such misdirected ardor and to point
out that until the kingdom comes.
whenever that may be, certain mani
fest obligations must be diligently dis
charged. "A certain nObleman." This
parable reminds us Of the parable Of
the talents. but there are many differ
ences between the two. and they en-
DhasiZe separate truths. The parable
of the pounds teaches that equal Op-
portunities with unequal diligence in
their use result in unequal rewards,

opportunities with equal diligence
bring equal rewards. "A far country"

Strange Creations.
After the first successful machines
began to make their periodical flights
about the world aviation soon lost its
novelty to a great degree until today
only sensations such as looping the
loop in the air and equally hazardous
feats command general attention.
Meanwhile the development of the
machine has been added to piece by
piece, and new and strange creations
have come from the inventors fertile
brain.
