her. Be sure that such an interpreta-
tion of violetta as was given yesterday
by Vicarino of the Bevani opera com
pany would have been cheap at fash
ionable" prices.
Vicarino is a great Violetta because
of the brilliant smoathness of her voice,
it's unostentatious beauty, its capacity
to run without friction in the tortuous
grooves of Verdi's winding melodies. it's
range, which, to be technical, meets no
barrier of difficulty even at the third
added bar of E flat. above high c. She
sang the tone at the end of the first
act. in the famous "Sempre Libra" with
an ease and positive nenchalance that
were amazing and reassuring of free
dom to soar higher If the melody de-
manded.
TONES ALWAYS MUSICAL
Vicarino is a great Violetta because
where her tones fly her spirit goes, too.
The upper tones are not thin, bloodless,
muscular affairs, but to the last vi
bration musical. Vicarino's Violetta is
a remarkable performance, moreover
because it is fresh with the bravura of
youth.
Though Achille Alberti sang a fin-
ished, distinguished Germont, and in
terpreted the familiar "Df Provenza"
with rich feeling, and though Eugenio
Battain was fiery, expressive Alfredo,
La Travfata" was Vicarino's opera yes
terday and triumphant rejuvenat ton
of the beauties of Verdfs half century
old Violetta.

Thousands Join Movement to Force
Down Prices.
Chicago. Jan. ga gigantic move
ment to combat the high prices OF
meat spread rapidly and has begun to
assume a national character. Coinci-
IDENTIFY came the announcements from
Milwaukee and Cleveland that the
price of meat had dropped.
In Milwaukee two retail butchers
quoted porterhouse and sirloin steak
at 10 cents a pound and other meats
In proportion.
The wholesale price of beef fell on
Is cents a hundred pounds in Cleye-
land.
Dispatches from Baltimore. Kansas
City Omaha. Memphis. Pittsburg and
other cities told of the rapid growth
Of the meat fad.
Gle Gland. credited with being the
originator Of the scheme. now has 30
900 names enrolled. while Kansas City
reports 5000.
From fev r'ccc7 word comes that
the boycott does not rnd favor even
among ur'on men. Tcieao and Min
neapolls report that II is unlikely that
the Cleveland plan will find favor
there. Ur. men. Il IS said, fear that
the fad would prove two-edged

That the boycott is not entirely a
union movement was proved by a re-

LITTLE PROFIT IN BEEF
Armour Says Price Is Only Half Cent
Hiuher Than Last Year.


New York. Jan. 22.-J. Ogden Ar
mour, the head OF Armour & Co. was
asked Just before he left for Chicago
what he thought about the high cost
OF living.
There Is only one thing can say"
Mr.. Armour replied. and that is that
the price Of fresh beef today Is only
half cent a pound higher to the re-
taller than II was year ago.
with pork the case is different,
That Is considerably higher. The
price of live hogs is high. and the
price OF corn is high. 1t all comes back
to the farmer when you consider Il. II
he does not raise his own corn. II costa
him lot more to feed his hogs than
II used to. The high price Of corn is
responsible for the high price OF meat,
There is very little profit In beef itself
for the packer. for II is solid to the
retailer at a price that Is but very
small advance over what II costs.
Business Is In very good shape. and
there has been complete recovery
from the conditions OF two years ago."
"Why Is oleomargarine so high?'
Mr.. Armour was asked.
"Oleomargarine? Why, because but
ter Is so high. and Mr. Armour chuck
