The call was notable In two re-

DETROIT OPERA HOUSE.

Behind whatever mask he may
choose TO hide, whether It be that OF
an Indian football hero, a rugged
woodsman or a polished man or AZ
fairs, Robert Edeson may always be
depended on TO give good account
OF himself. Whatever may be MS
vehicle, Blossoms work always bears
the mark Of sincerity Sand consclen-
tious endeayor. But II is doubtless as
the exponent OF true love that he Will
be best remembered by his followers
of the gentler sex, for he makes a
capital stage lover. In "A Mans
Man." in which Edeson and thor
oughly adequate supporting company
opened a three-nights engagement In
the Detroit Opera house Monday
nihgt, he Is required to make love To
his own wife, and therein lies les
son that many a man might learn with
beneficial results.
"A Mans a Man" presents an in
teresting study of the divorce ques-
ton, and the story is well worked out
by the authors, Anna Steese Richard
son and Henry Leslie Fridenberg. "
bristles with strong lines. and Its
climaxes are gripping. II has to do
primarily with the efforts OF John
Crane, who has risen TO wealth and
power from the level Of lowly pros
pector, through a lucky strike. In an
effort to acquire higher social stand
ing he seeks to divorce the wife who
was loyal TO him in the days OF his
early struggles and privations, but
who, In his opinion. is not worthy 10
rise with him TO the social eminence
to which he aspires.
He engages Townsend Hewitt so
cially prominent New York attorney,
TO lobby through the Montana legisla-
ture a bill making 1t possible to Sc
cure a divorce on the ground OF In
compatibility OF temper for his espe-
cial benefit. Hewitt undertakes the
task with a will. for in 1t he sees an
opportunity to earn reputation as q
s!iillful handler OF men, and, more
over, II Is the first real work he has
ever done, having lived largely on the
income from his patrimony, shining by
the reflected light OF his fathers bril-
liant career
Hewitt has succeeded in pledging
q majority Of both houses to vote for
the bill. and It's passage is assured
when Mrs. Crane. the wife, appears
or the scene Instead Of the clumsy,
uneducated housewife he had expect
ed, he is surprised 10 find In her
woman of grace and many personal
charms Through Mrs. Crane he
learns that while he has been pushing
the divorce bill, not even taking time
to answer the letters that came from
his charming wife back east. Crane
has been In New York lavishing atten-
tons on Mrs. Hewitt so boldly as 20
attract public notice. He renounces
Crane and hurries back to New York
in time 10 regain his wife's love and,
by clever devices, reunites Crane and
the wife OF his youth.
Mr.. Edeson is naturally the Town

OLIVE DRAB UNIFORM
NOT ENTIRELY PERFECT
Part Of Big Contract Rejected by the
Army-Ouli Buttons and
~ visors Now.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. - The
change from khaki to the new olive
drap cotton cloth for the summer SER
vice uniforms OF the United States
army Is not entirely success. The
first $50 900 yards woven proved SO
unsatisfactory that the manufacturers
did not submit the product to the gov
eminent. Then their contract for
| 500. 900 yards was filed. and out Of
IL the Quartermaster-ge generals experts
turned back nearly 100000 yards as
not up TO standard.
In casting about for a suitable sum-
mer uniform the war department mas
spent nearly IL years in research, ex-
perimentation and rejection. 1t was
thought last spring that the problem
had been solved, for the cloth which
Ouartermaster-Ge Aleshire APP
proved stood all the official tests, and.
unlike khaki, 1t is soft and pliable.
The new uniform will not be Issued
TO the troops for about a year
Meanwhile the campaign to bring
about the practical invislbilfty OF the
American soldier in the field seems to
be about completed The first move,
made at the outbreak or the Spanish
American war, was the remuneration
of the time -honored blue In favor or
khaki. Then the Beers showed the
British army that though they might
not see a khaEi-clad soldiers coat
outlined against the veldt, they could
pick out his shiny metal buttons.
Uncle Sam took his cue from John
Bull and changed to dull bronze but
tons.
Now the acknowledgements has
found that the patent metal viso-s
worn on the olive-colored caps OF his
soldiers is a good target for the marks
man, as It CLEANS in bright sunshine.
The new issue Of soldier caps for the
army will have visors and straps Of
dull Russian leather. The last bright
bit In the makeup of our lighting men
has thus been obliterated.

Mckinley
and

NEW YORK. Jan. 1S.-The World
prints the following from Washington:
In expressing his deep interest In
the subject OF the increased and ever
increasing cost of living President
Taft was speaking from a personal as
we'll as from national viewpoint. His
own pocket is affected just as are the
pockets OF the eighty million and more
citizens OF the country. Day by day
on the White House table, he had be-
fore him object lessons that speak
more eloquently than words or than
tables OF statistics His bills from
the butcher. baaer and candlestick-
maker furnish all the written evi
dence necessary
The TAFT family is not extravagant.
Its members live well. but plainly.
Neither do they do much entertain
ing. When President Roosevelt occu-
pied the White House there was din
ner or function OF some kind daily.
The present routine OF life in the
executive mansion spproximates more
TO the Mckinley order OF things than
to the Rooseveltian. Nevertheless,
even living economically, the expen-
ditures for the table OF a president
are considerable so the question of a
constant increase in food prices Is a
very live one for Mr.. Taft.
Mrs. Jeffreys Close Buyer.
In purchasing edibles for the White
House table. Mrs. Jeffreys. the house
keeper, TO whom this duty is assigned,
has only one instruction: Buy the
best" Being a shrewd purchaser she
does what other clever housekeepcrS
do-buys the best at the lowest price.
She distributes her trade among sew
eral merchants, getting this or that
article where II can be bought to
advantage In President Roosevelts
time. Pinckney. the colored function
ary, who did most OF the buying, dealt
with one man, the same who had sup
piled Mrs Roosevelt when her hus-
band was civil service commits
sioner
Nevertheless. even with this advan-
tage President Taft finds that he is
paving an increase over the prices
which obtained during the earlier
DAYS OF the Roosevelt regime and the
latter days of President McKinley's
administration OF from 20 per cent up
ward To 800 per cent. To take specific
instances. for the eggs which he eats
for breakfast Mr.. Taft has TO pay at
least 45 cents a dozen. sometimes
more. where less than ten years ago
his predecessors could obtain them FOR
hos cents. For the bacon which some
times accompanies the eggs he is
paying % cents pound against the 10
cents OF McKinleys time. Or. II he
should have a slice or two OF Smith
field HON IL has cost him at the rate
Of 80 cents a pound. while President
Roosevelt once enjoyed the same dish
at 16 cents a pound. The creamery
butter on the table costs him As cents
pound. as against 35 cents, and any
fruit he may have is assuredly cost
ing anywhere from 20 TO so per cent
more than II cost his predecessors.
