Last night was certainly a (fill a event in
the history of opera In OmuliH. Not since
Fattl appeared at the. Coliseum have we
hud anything like It. The Auditorium was
decorated, In a most tusteful and harmoni
oua way. Together with the huge crowd
which nearly filled it, It had a metropolitan
air which waa unmistakable. The stage
had been built out to the proscenium arch
and there wua ample room for perspective
In the stage picture.
The Metropolitan orchestra, which con
sists of seventy men, under the leadership
of Mr. Hertz, did remarkable work. He ia
a conscientious, leader, with the required
authority. Mia reading of the acore was
thoroughly lucid. The way' he has of work
ing up to a climax la inspiring. In the
When you remember tlie
fact that the - Bitters has
been curing sickly people
for over 50 years, you ought,
not hepitate any logger in
giving it a fair trial. For
curing Spring Fever, General
Debility, Impure Blood, Head
ache,' Indigestion, Dyspepsia,
Costiveness, Colds or Lv
Grippe it is unequalled.

transition scrne as Parsifal and Ourne
mar.i! are walking to the'templo he ac
complishes some trcmenitoiis effects. The
only fault to be found was with his posi
tion; he sat too high; was visible In the
stage picture. At the end of Amforta's
"Lament" In the llrst act before he raises
the Grail Mr. Herts waa almost tiy; prom
inent feature.
Mr. Burgstallcr's "Parsifal" was an In
terpretation full of beauty. His voice Is n
rich, even tenor, which he uses with won
derful art. In physique he is tremendous
and his voice matches his slse; It is big and
adequate; he never forces It. , For the flrt
act he was buoyant and Impetuous, but In
the end, especially In the third net, after
the baptism of Kundry, his whole bearing
was that of humility; there waa nothing
triumphant.
For five years Mr. BurgRtaller was In the
chorus at Hayreuth. One of the principals
being Indisposed gave him his chnnce at an
Important part. He acquitted himself so
well that since that time has has steadily
advanced, and has been under Madame
Wagner's special guidance. She was rather
angry when he Joined Conried's forces in
the American production of "Parsifal." but
has of late granted him full forgiveness.
The second net of the opera was entirely
absorbed by the personality of Fremstad.
Her voice io a luscious mcszo-soprano with
mystrrious. resonant, deep tones. Her Idea
In the first act, where she seems to he rap
Idly succumbing to the horrible magic sleep,
was most satisfying. The second act she
made literally her own. She Is beautiful,
both In face 'and body. She says: "The mu
sic with which Kundry allures Parsifal In In
Itself wonderfully eloquent or It would be
If it were ung. as I feel it should be, ten
derly, insidiously, amourously.- not shrieked
or declaimed. " Fremstad certainly reaches
her ideal. It waa a battle royal between
Parsifal,' the Ftrong. Impetuous y"oith', and
the gorgeous, seductive wuman. The"' tran
sition from the lullaby to her final defeat
was a triumph of art. In Chicago the audi
ence -scattered tradition to the winds and
brought Fremstad out four times.
Mr. Conrled. has changed the acencry.in
this act somewhat. In Inyreulh the flow
cti are great, big. poisonous exotic-looking
blooms. It Is to be supposed that Wagner
had a definite Idea In this portrayal, Mr.
Conrled has softened the effect very much.
The singing of the flower maidens -was
extremely good; the best chorus work
done, In the course of the opera. Some
of the choruses were not good, the men
especially being prone to lenve the key.
The Amfortas of Mr. Van Ruay wan a
faithful Inte'rpretatlon. He was much
handicapped In the Temple scene by being
so far back On the stage. In the forte
passages his volie did not carry over the
orchestra. He was ruir.rr lusty in the
end, where he tore off his bandages.
Mr. Blnss, who is an American (together
with Miss Freinstadi gave Ournemuns a
splendid portrayul. ' He has u beautiful,
true ringing voice, which he uses with
artistic effect.
The role' of Klingsof Is small, but Mr.
Oorlta riidMt full Justice.
Teturn was a trifle uncertain In Intona
tion. ' . '...., :
Mine. Jacoby bus a warm rich quality
in her voice.
To sum It up, Mr. Conrled's presentation
Is one long to be remembered. That we
In Omaha have been able to enjoy it, is
due to Mr. Clement Chase's enthusing
zeal, and absolute scouting of anything
like discouragement. He deserves tre
mendous' credit.

TWKHTY-riVB CENT! A AOTTLL d
One of Most Notable I'vrnta In His
tory nf City.
Not since the pHlmy days of the old Ex
position building and Coliseum, when
artists were not unusual, und yet were less
so than for a few seasons past In Omaha,
has anything upproached the spirit with
which socloty entered Into last evening's
performance. It was. Indeed, a gala oc
casion, and society redeemed Itself for
wasting Its opportunity of -two weeks' ago.
There have been mnny . fashionable func
tions In the Interval of years, many that
have attracted the smart people-In ull of
their finery, but none that have brought
them out Just as they came Inst night. And
to the local smart set was added a large
representation of Lincoln's music-loving
fashionables, and others from out In the
state.
Handsome costumes were the rule rather
than the exception, not only in the boxes,
but down on the floor and throughout the
gallery; In feet. It was u house that sug
gested "the opera."
While few entire boxes had been engaged
by individuals their occupants were equi
valent to parties: there were few strangers
among them and after the intermission
there were few empty seats, although there
was a noticeable scarcity of men before' the
Intermission.
In oil probability the performance of this
evening will be a more pronounced society
event than that of last night.

carelessly step off the sidewalk and place
herself directly in the way of a pair of
prancing horses. It was the rollceman
Who rescued her; did a careless driver
stop too long before the awning erected
for the reception of these who Csmr in
carriages. It we the policeman who en
couraged him to move on. Did a big burly
man so forget himself as to posh Into the
throng and tread on the silk skirts of the
feminine contingent, It was the policeman
who told him how he eught to conduct
himself.
But, after all. it was a crowd easily
taken care of. and the temper of the
officers was seldom rjiftlcd by undue dis
order. The hundreds 'who came on the
cars gathered at th" northwest corner of
the building and patiently waiti-d until
one by one those before them passed in
snd they arrived at the entrance. The
admittance of such numbers at a single
entrance took a long time and many be
gan to murmur that they would miss the
opening scene. But they did not become
unruly and all of them were In time to
ee the curtain which disclosed Gurne
manz und the esquires in the forest.
Some little Experiences. '
Interesting experiences were many. Inter
esting both to those who were most
greatly concerned und to the onlooker. A
pretty girl of about 19 summers,
dressed In white and wearing patent
leather oxfords which half hid and half
disclosed a neatly turned pair of silken
draped ankles, became tired of standing
In the border of the crowd which sur
rounded the single enrtance provided for
pedestrians, and stnrtcd to search out an
other way in. She watched until she
thought she saw a chance and then dashed
through an open space between the car
riages. All would have been well had
she not relaxed her vlgllnnce and be
lieved herself safe too soon. All uncon
scious that a spirited team and a careless
driver were approaching on her right, she
stopped a moment at the curb to flash a
smile cf triumph to hrr companions on the
left who had not tared to make the trial
with her. The result might have been
fatal. The strong nrm of a big man
snatched her from danger when the very
steam from the horses' nostrils was on her
neck. Did she thank him for saving her
limbs and perhaps her life? No. not she.
She was no doubt a perfect lady, for
every detail of her appearance and the
expression of her face indicated It, but
her feeling of gratitude was overcome by
one tit indignation that u man whom she
did not know had dared to touch her, yes,
had I'hr.ost carried her.
"How dare you, sir," was what her eyes
said, and he smiled at her kindly, as at a
child who had misbehaved and knew not
what it did. He received his reward a
mon ent Inter, when she looked ut the
corded legs of the restless horses and saw
them striking the lire from the pavement.
She smiled at him then," faintly, but her
feeling was in her eyes.
Nome Who Didn't Go la.
Not ull the people about the Auditorium
were gi,y and happy and not all were In
a hurry. There were the ones who were
not so fortunate as to be able to attend
the opera. In the interval between the
two 'awnings where those from the e-ar-
rlages went In were half a dozen plainly
dressed little; girls. Their attention was not
directed to the Auditorium nor to the
horses, but, naturally enough, to the
dresses of those entering at the awnings.
Silks and laoes and feathers flashed be
fore their astonished eyes and from be
neath the laces peeped daintily clad feet.
"O, my goodness. Isn't she lovely?" asked
one' little miss of another. "When 1 got
big I am going to marry a brakemati so I
can wear nice dresses like that. Then I'll
come , to the show In a notomoblle and sit
right on the front si'at, where I can watch
them dunce."
Across the street, annarentlv uot so In
trepid as the youngsters, stood, perhaps
200 people who watched the gathering
throng. For a time they ' probably got
more enjoyment than the opera goers, for
they were nlether crushed in the crowd nor
nervous with apprehension lest the curtain
should rise before their arrival.

Any mun In town or out of it who could
have seen Manager Clement Chase yester
day evening between the hours of 4 and 5
at the Auditorium would not have traded
places with him under any circumstances
for the time being. It was during this hour
that the people came to hear "Parsifal"
came In bunches, crowds, companies and
by regiments. And it seemed that every
other patron and every single employe
around the place had some grievance to air
or some oversight to which he wished to
"Pull the manugcr's attention, The most per
plexing thing of all was the slender shafts

rulsed a curtain to look out six men and
two women would call Mr. Chuse's atten

Great heavens!" he would cry. "That
can't be. Why that would spoil the effect."
He would thereupon dispatch two police
men and a boy to find out about It.
Women with seat checks accused him of
being an usher time und time again. He
was looked to to referee all disputed points
as to double claimants for seats and the
like and it looked as though It was going to
be up to him for awhile to either find some
way of getting a frenzied throng of people
who had paid their money In the place or
holding back the- opera. Mr. Chase kept
his temper, however, und in the end all
came nut right and he laughed ut himself
for ever feeling worried.

Verdict for Defendant.
After most of plulntlff's testimony was
heard In the dimuge suit of Minnie Dan

Judge Redick found it necessary to tak
the case from the Jury and to direct u
verdict for the defendants on u law point
