Mr. Whltehill has been acclaimed by the critics of New York as without rival in the role. In "Siegfried" Wotan, disguised as a wanderer, bars the young hero's way to the flame encircled spot where the Valkyrie Brunnhilde sleeps. Being vanquished by Siegfried, the god vanishes for all time. Wotan has but one eye. Long before the events of the music drama, an" old saga tells, he plucked the other out voluntarily as a price for winning the goddess Fricka as his wife. With Johanna Gadski and Lila Robeson, Mr. Whltehill will be soloist when 1200 children and 500 men and women from the Pittsburgh public schools present the Siegfried Festival Concert in Forbes Field, Saturday afternoon, June 10. • ; Johannes Sembach as Siegfried AS Siegfried, child of the forest, destined to forge the invincible sword, Nothung, and with it to conquer the dragon, Fafner, and cleave the spear of the god, Wotan, which bais his way to hie sleeping sweetheart, Brunhilde, in the magic circle of fire, Johannes Sembach will be seen at his best in the open air performance of Richard Wagner's music drama "Siegfried," to be given in Forbes Field, Pittsburgh, home grounds of the Urates, Thurs day evening, June 8. In connection with the opera a Sletrfried Festival Con cert will be given by public school children and Metropolitan soloists and or chestra Saturday afternoon, June 10. Sembach is one of the most recent and most famous stars of the Metro politan Opera Company and has been declared the greatest Wagnerian tenor in the world. He is the center of a cast which has never been equaled since "Siegfried" was composed and which includes Melanie Kurt, Ernestine Schu mann-Heink, Frieda Hempel. Clarence Whitehill, Albert Reiss, Otto Gorltz and Carl Braun. He stands in the photograph as the youthful hero. In his hand Is the sword he has Just forged from the fragments of the shattered weapon which failed to save his father, Siegfried, from the fatal spear of Wotan. ; How the Natives Treat Gorillas. Natives in the countries inhabited by great apes regard them always as hu man beings of inferior types, and it is for this reason that for a long time it was found impossible to get hold of an entire gorilla skin, because the sav ages considered it religiously necessa ry to cut off the hands and feet of the ; animals when they killed them, just as > they do with their enemies, possibly J for the purpose of rendering them ' harmless in case they should by any chance come to life again.
