CHICAGO, June 21—The sale of
Taft aud Teddy souvenirs having died
down, the great army of street ven
ders have been loaded up with toys
of all sorts, and a common cry is
'‘Take 'em home to the kids.” You
can buy anything from a rubber bull
to a tin whistle.
Those of the convention hall gal
lery who tired of the political gabfest I
after two days' session are eagerly
sought out by the street ticket specu
lators. The cry is 'Til buy your
ticket, I'll buy your ticket.” and If he
lands oue of the cardboards, follow
him around the corner and you'll hear
“Convention tickets for bale,” and the
price he gave is usually doubled.
Bands playing for the T. R side of
the political turmoil have been having
great sport kidding the Taft bands.
The latter, stationed in front of the
Taft headquarters in the Congress

when the T. R. musicians will join In
—sounds like brotherly love —but the
T. R. musicians take great care to |
hit every other note a little bit on
the bias.
They've put the ban on the "Bear
Dance” the “Turkey Trot and various
other society dances in a great many

the ragtime tunes the campaign banda
execute.
The Maelstrom took on the appear
ance of real joyfulness when college
boys invaded the hotel lobbies. They j
gave the dental college yell, sang I
songs and ripped through the crowds ‘
carrying Teddy banners. Some of
them were voters.

The two silent ones saw the waving 1

wreathed their faces. "That's some- [

THE STAGE '
DETROIT OPERA HOUSE.
The tuneful melodies and “country
bumpkin'' fun of Flotow's “Martha, " (
was the offering of the Sheehan Eng
lish Opera company. Thursday even-,
ing In the Detroit opera house. This
opera is a perennial favorite and al
ways sure of the appreciative hearing:
from the average opera going audi
ence. The Sheehan company's pre-;
sentatlon of it was given plenty of ar>-
rlauae
As in everything she has done In
Detroit. Miss Gladys Caldwell gave a
vocally pleasing and winsome imper
sonation of l.adv Harriet Durham who
masquerades as Martha. Such parts
are eminently suited to Mis* Cald
well* dainty personality, her roguish
face and her pretty voice.-- She sang,
"The Last Rose of Summer*' with .
power and sweetness, and throughout J
the evening acquitted herself with
mere than usual ability.
Mr. Sheehan, as Lionel, the country
boy. who before the last curtain falls,
finds himself a "nobleman of high de
giee." has often been seen in the part
in this city. His efforts are always
well received and hia singing applaud
ed with enthusiasm.
Big k lands J. Boyle made the most
of the comedy possibilities of Plun
kett, the awkward and loutish young
faimer, whom Nancy, Lady Har
riet's pert waiting maid, leads such a
merry dance. Miss Alma Stetzler was
Nancy and she gave a very good ac
count of herself. Francis J. Tyler as
Tristan, Harriet's cousin,
and Will J. Jorgensen, u s the sheriff,
completed the cast.

Robson’s stage success has been won
largely by original character roles.
She stands out among all the pretty
women of the profeaelonal world as
entirely submerging her own attrac
tiveness In lines and greaaepalnt,
content to win recognition by grotes
quenesb. eccentricity, ugliness and
even deformity. She started as a
“slavey," and while the public had
never seen exactly the brand of slavey
which she presented, with one accord
it was acknowledged that the Robson
slavey was absolutely true to life.
Miss Robson has always succeeded in
depicting a slavey, whether white or
colored. Yankee, Cockney, Swedish,
German or Irish, so that everyone
could call to mind a real prototype.
