REAL SIDEWALK
ARTIST MAKES
NATIONAL HIT

Tozart, the painter at the National
theater, presents a feature not well
known In America. He is a side
walk artist, an itinerant professional
common enough in England, where
by hundreds they infest the streets
of the cities, sitting by the curb and
drawing pictures for the passersby.
Sometimes they have easels, but more
often their works are traced on the
pavement itself. Oftentimes one is
met who displays unusual ability.
This is the motive of Tozart's act.
He strays into a real artists studio
and cannot resist the temptation to
use the brushes, oils, palette, easel
and other paraphernalia.
Nolan & Nolan's juggling act con.
tinues to elicit encores. Herbert Win

ELSA'S PRAYERS
BRINGKNIGHT TO
CLEAR HER name

''Lohengrin," Richard Wagner's IA
nous opera, will be the offering OF
the De FoIco Opera Company at the
Opera House this evening.
The first act, laid on the banks Of
the Scheldt, near Antwerp. shows
the arrival of King Henri of Germany.
who finds Brabant in a state of near
anarchy. He meets Frederick under
the Oak of Justice and calls on him
for an explanation. whereupon the
latter boldly accuses Elsa of the MUIR
der of her brother. The king is much
disturbed Frederick repeats his ac-
cusations Elsa seems bewildered.
and sings the lovely "Traum." telling
of her vision of splendid knight who
is to come as her defender.
King Henri. moved by the young
girls narrative, calls for a judgment
of God. The trumpeters blow the
summons to the four points of the
compass. At first there is no res
ponse and Elsa is in despair, but after
a second call knight in shining ar
NOR is seen approaching in a boat
drawn by a swan. The knight, Lohen-
grin. and Frederick fight. and the lat
ter is defeated, and Elsa, being pro-
nounced innocent; plights her troth
to her defender.
Acts two and three show the court
of the palace and bridal chamber
respectively In the meantime, Fred
erick and Ortrud are plotting against
Lohengrin and warn Elsa against
trusting her new-found husband too
blindly. Elsa questions Lohengrin as
to his name and origin. They are in
terrupted by the entrance Of Freder-
lex and four associates with drawn
swords. Lohengrin strikes Frederick
dead and the others surrender.
Then follows Lohengrin's narrative,
said to be one of the most dramatic
declamations in all opera.
The swan then appears to carry
Lohengrin away. Ortrud reveals the
fact that the swan really is Elsa's
brother whom she, Ortrud, had trans
formed by magic. Lohengrin kneels
in prayer, and as the dove of the
Grail is seen descending, the swan
sinks and Godfrey, the young duke,
arises, restored to human form. Lob
engrin's boat is drawn away as Elsa
faints in her brothers arms.

At one point it had the game in most distressing state, with the American Association still fitfully fighting, and so aenemic and bed-ridden as to be scarcely able to recover. The National league survived it all however, and c0ntinded in a flourishing manner till 1901, when the American league bobbed up and fought a brilliant fight. The American league, as has been seen, was the only organization to battle the Ma tional league with any success.

 The goods, if labeled, never reached Phoenix said Mr. Williams in denial of the rumors that large quantity of booze has been shipped by Wells Fargo since prohibition went into effect in this state The shipment is held up at the border line and from Gallup is returned to the sender. We have never delivered any to our knowledge. It has prob ably been sent in the state under cover, but we have no authority to open package that is perhaps labeled hats or shoes Not long ago we received a suit case and when it reached here we found bottle had evidently broken inside. There was every evidence that it contained whiskey and there was a merry war around here when we refused it's delivery"

The dope shows that the Feds two wears feud with organized baseball was not the first attempt on the life of the latter. A glimpse at the vel lowed records of. baseball history shows that since the organization of the National league back in 1876 there have been six different Wrangles of varying degrees of bitterness. And all but one, the birth of the American league, have been like the Fed fight, fruitless and in vain.
 In the winter of 'Sl-'S2, when the National league was six seasons old a group of baseball promoters and mo- guls, piqued at the success of the new league, made a violent effort to throw a wrench into it's works. Two years of contract jumping and such like fol- lowed with the National league trium- phant in the end The American Asso- citation, organized at Cincinnati at the time and in no way related to tre pres ent day league of that name, was the new faction. Shortly after the Union association was also formed, but after one fitful season it expired.

An interesting phase of the baseball wars is the part Cincinnati has always played in them. In alm63t every case the nome of the Reds has been the storm center and the meeting place of magnates planning war or peace This seems to be the Queen Cits's chief distinction in baseball matters, unless there be considered q renlant won somewhere remote in thN memory of the oldest settler.
