COSMOS.
Vaudeville.

There is a touch of novelty to the
Cosmos Theater bill this week. even
in the soldier boys act, which makes
II especially. enjoyable.
The Three Eddys. famous as The
Keystone Cops" open with an origi-
nal act of nonsense and acrobatics
blended which won much applause
at the performances yesterday. while
Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Clarke. the for
n1er in his own original songs sunk
as character sketches, to the accom-
paniment Of Mrs. Clarke, who also
wins applause for her cello work.
are quite out OF the ordinary in their
enjoyable entertainment. and their
many curtain calls were fully de-
served.
Fenteel and Cecil. both excellent
pretty voice which she uses with
artistic skill. add to the novelty or
the entertainment, while James
O'Rourke and company offer a new
sketch of marital rows and make
ups entitled Merely Married" Col
Inns and Pillard complete the sup
porting bill with a hodge-podge of
nonsense which wins laughter and
applause.
Getting 1t Over" the new pro-
duction OF the soldier artists of the
Twenty-seventh New York Divisional
Troops, has many. new touches. but
in its entirety suggests the original
laughable entertainment Of these
stage Johnnies and merry-merries
who helped to tighten the heavy
hours of the boys when war was
their business. 1t is a good show
and few will see it who will not
thoroughly enjoy 1t.
The added matinee attraction,
Moral Fiber" presenting both CO.
rinne Griffith and Catherine Calvert
as its stars. is a delightful little
romance based upon the attempt at
revenge by a loving sister who
sought to make a married woman
pay for breaking her brothers heart.

Oklahoma Congresswon1an DraUs Fire From Miitant
 Suffs---Too OLd-Fashioned

From the very beginning, Miss Robertson was not popular with the suffragettes She is not one of them. She can scarcely tolerate them. She vigorously opposed equal suffrage. She even made the ''old fashion argument that the home was the nat ural sphere of women. But she could not prevail with her argument, ard suffrage was established. Although she had no appeal to the professional woman politician, she announced for office and was elected. She was the only anti-auffragette among the en- tire list of women candidates in the United States and, although running in the first year of equal suffrage application, was the only woman ill the United States elected to exaltei office.
 Miss Robertson is over 60 years of age, is of large frame and of mas culine appearance. She has already made hit in Congress by her will ingness to collaborate on a mans footing with the men of Congress. She is extremely partisan and ex- tremely practical. When Oklahoma returns to the democratic party. she will go out of public life. But as long as Oklahoma is republican state, 1t is safe to predict that she will remain lon the job.'
