BOOKS WORTH READIN True Stories of Great Americans- Thomas A. Edison-by Francis Rolt Wheeler. (MacMillan and Co.). To show Edison as a Great Aner- ican is the purpose of this short life of the "Wizard of Menlo Park." His early struggles, his experiments, is matey failures, wh~ich finally and al- ways ended in success, are typical of the American hero, and are too well known to need repeating here. The bare facts of Edison's life are fascin- ating of themselves, and are here simply and interestingly told.

The couple reside in this city. GLOVES for men, best known makes at reason- able prices, on sale by N. F. Allen & Co., Main street. wed-eod The Ann Arbor Press-Press build- lng, Maynard street.

"High Jinks" at the Garrick, Detroit The "tired neutral" is promised a tonic in "High Jinks," which Arthur Hammerstein will present for a re- turn engagement at the Garrick the- ater, Detroit, for a week's engagement, commencing Monday night. Rudolf Friml has furnished a musi- cal score whose numbers are light, airy, tuneful and catchy. There will be popular price matinees on Wednes- day and Saturday. At tie Majestic For variety and general high class of offerings, the bill at the Majestic the last half of this week, which opened last night, ranks high among the top- notch shows that have been played at the Majestic since its opening. So far as the relative merits are con- cerned, it is beyond doubt one of the best-balanced shows that the vaude- ville house has witnessed. It is dif- ficult to select an out-and-out head- liner, for any one of the four acts could well be classed as such, and the other, a filler, is a good one. Perhaps the audiences were most pleased with the Kilkenny Four, a quartet who sing old Irish songs and are a scream as comedians. Especially well presented and de- serving of merit is the sketch of the bill, "Solomon's Bargain," the story of which is wound about the charac- ter impersonation ability of Hyman Adler. Eiler's animal circus, which opens the bill, is also well received. Five trained goats are the principal per- formers, and they do amazing feats for dumb animals. A sort of side show, engineered by a wise, knowing mon- key, is a source of amusement which the audience did-not overlook. To close the bill, the Six Military Dancers, three young misses and three men, are programmed. Dancing, and dancing only, is their forte, but the fact that they hold the stage for 20 minutes or so, dancing all the time, shows that their terpsichorean ef- forts are not mean.
