HERBERT QUICK, FROM HIS BEST PHOTOGRAPH

self for practice. He began the
practice of his profession in Sioux
City in 1890 and was actively en-
gagged at the bar for a little short
of twenty years.
In 1908 he became editor of
LaFollette's Weekly and went
from that to Farm and Fireside.
In the meantime he found enough
spare moments to write novels
and books of such various char
acter as "In the Fairyland of
America" Aladdin and Com
pany," Double Trouble" "The
Broken Lance" American In
land Waterways" and virginia
of the Air Lanes" in addition to
a vast array of essays, newspaper
articles on every conceivable sub
ject from cattle breedings to the
spirit Of poetry.
There is an individual touch to
everything he has done. A prod
ust of the middle west-as the
middle west typifies America so
does Quick prove true to his
birthright. There is probably no
man who ha stouched so many
angles of the good ship EARTH
or attuned his mind so we'll to
its steerage and cabins, its FORE
castles and quarter-decks. His
career has been a career of alb
sorption and digestion. He has
tried to see everything and has
not only given each new things
its place in his mental index, but
has 1t cross-indexed with all the
subjects to which it might be re-
lated.
That, therefore, Is his qualifi-
cation to interpret the diary OF
the Earth, to write up from all
the old shippers records the log
of the good ship that carries us
all on the passenger list. And
to leave for future sailors a COM
plete account of what has gone
before, by which they might gain
some idea of what the world holds
for them.

HATS GET INTO PORT
FEATHERS AND ALL
Not a Plume Plucked From t.
0O0 Arriving Passengers.

New York, Oct. 1O-More than a
thousand first cabin passengers arriv-
ed yesterday by three liners and many
of them were women who wore feath-
ers in their hats, but none of them
gave up a single feather, even though
some of the feathers may have been
aigrettes, egret plumes or plunes of
birds. of paradise.
Some feather wearers had register
ed their hats before they went abroad
and these hats were not even looked
at with suspicion. No inspector ask
ed any of the feather wearers If their
feathers were imported or domestic.
The order to take possession Of pro-
hibited feathers on women's hats
came to Surveyor Henry from Wash
ington and it will be enforced. The
seized p1umes will not be destroyed if
their owners want to export them.

Plaza Week End Bill
Is Sure Gloom Killer

Some show was the unanimous
verdict of the drst-nighters who wit
messed the performance at the Plaza
theatre last evening. First came Err
rico, the eQuinbrist, with a novel line
of stunts.
Ed Dwyer, the inimitable character
comedian, was given a hearty well
come. Ed Dwyer has q way all his
own for. singing songs and telling sto-
ries and his representations are ex-
ceptionaIly clever, especially that of
Harry Lauder, which brought many
screams from the female members of
the audience.
"Everybody's Doing IT, without
doubt one Of the funniest of comedy
sketches, was the big feature. Thomas
Scabbard comes home in the wee hours
of the morning and is accused, by his
wife of having been in the company
of other women His plea that his
business demands his acquaintance
with many women and also the treat
ing of them to dinners and theatre
parties in order that he make it sue
cess is all to no avail and she packs
her belongings. and proceeds to re
turn to mother Then comes fine
mix-up. The enraged wife. who has
finally decided to take room across
the corridor, suddenly enters her hus-
bands room and is confronted by
beautiful young lady, all ready to re-
tire. The situations that follow keep
the audience keyed up with excitement
and cause no little laughter.
Another act that was responsible for
hearty rounds of laughter from the
audience was presented by Wardel1
and Hoyt Their rapid-f1re cross talk
pleased immensely and the comedy
song by the italian character entitled,
ct got da Rock was well received.
The act Is snappy and full of ginger
nj dancing numbers excel
lent.
The Dancing DeForests, whirlwind
dancers, certainly whirled some last
night and the applause they received
fairly made the air whir1. Their
waltzing was treat and their nov
city numbers made the drst-night
crowd sit up and take notice.
sThe Depth OF Hate q grfppingly
intense Pathep1ay drama, proved a.
very interesting feature Of the pro-
gram. 'rHow1fn' Jones' and "a Ten
derhearted Crook were also shown.

reasons and the course Of proyidont,al
events The church has no right to
construct or modify n government for
the state ana the state has no right
to Franc creed or polity for tho
church. They are as planets moving In
different orbits, and, unless each is
confined to it's own track, the conse-
Quences may be as disastrous in tho
moral world as the collision of differ
emit spheres In tho world Of matter. II
Is true. there is 4 point ut which their
respective jurisdictions seem to meet
in the idea OF duty. But even duty
Is viewed by each in very different
lights. Tho church entoins 1t as obcdi-
ence TO Cod and the state enforces II
as tho safeguard OF order But there
can he no collision unless one or the
other blunders as to the things that
arc materially right. When the state
makes wicked laws, contrad.ctiny
the eternal principles of rcctitudc, the
church is at liberty TO testify against
them. and humbly to petition that they
may be repealed"
