"QUO VADIS," WONDERFUL
PHOTO PLAY, AT NEWARK

"Quo Vadis," that marvellous photo
drama spectacle that has made the
name of the producer, George Kleine,
famous on this continent, and which
has thrilled vast audiences week aft
er week in New York, Chicago, Bos-
ton and Philadelphia and various
other cities, is announced at the
Newark Theatre Labor Day for an
engagement of one week with mat
inees every day.
That a rare treat is in store for
local amusement seekers Is fore
gone conclusion, as such wonderful
patronage and praise bestowed upon
this attraction attest.
Many ministers and priests have
been noticeable in the audiences, par
ticularly in New York and Chicago,
and all have given the entertainment
their unqualified approval and in
dorsement. Some of the pictures are
more than inspiring and Undue the
spectator with an unbounded rever-
ence for things that are sacred and
spiritual.
According to all accounts one OF
the most striking figures among the
great list of actors Is TIE character
of Peter.
1t would be hard to find another
player who so perfectly realizes the
general conception of this noble man.
The features of the actor are perfect
for the part and could not have been
better had they been chiseled out
OF marble or painted specially for
the production. His acting Is at all
times in keeping with the beauty Of
the character, and many critics have
pronounced the picture where he is
preaching to the Christians in the
cave the most artistic and inspiring
of the whole wonderful group.
And certainly no scene ever pic
tured or portrayed upon the stage is
more impressive or carries stronger
weight for good than that incident
where the figure of Christ appears to
Peter and commands him to return
TO Rome. 1t is a splendid specimen of
dissolving photography and only one
of a remarkable group. -
In fact, it is said, there are SO
many great scenes in this glorious
photo drama production of "Quo
Vadis" that 1t is difficult to pick out
any one to praise more than the
other.

FIREHOUSE FAR TOO
PRETTY FOR FIREMEN
IspecinI to the Newark star.I

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Aug. 90
The department of safety is in a
quandary because the city commits
sioners have built a fire house so
handsome that the firemen don't
want to occupy it.
The two story stone structure at
California and Atlantic avenues cost
100000. What the firemen object to
is the great amount of metal in the
interior There is brass to be polished
everywhere they look. In the effort
to coax a crew into the station the
department is spending $4,000 on
equipment, putting in nothing but
chartered oak furniture and INSTALL
ing a fine gymnasium.
But still the fire eaters are lodging.

story told one day at dinner by "Bucks

wanting something to drink, being
without money, they carried bunch

Carved His Name Into Court.

According TO the Spring Green News
time hung heavy on the hand of AIonzo
Doty, an advance theatrical man, and
he spent some time in carving his
name in one of the cement posts at
the high school grounds. He was
assessed $500 and costs in the court of
Justice Hathaway. The paper says he
has been in the habit of carving his
name on Eastwood tree or any place
he wished in the woods and supposed
it perfectly proper on gate post.

said, "All right, just carry them out
into the back yard" This old not
prove TO be enough, so two of the men
came in at the front door with q bunch
of shingles which they were told to
carry out into the back yard. "Buck-
skin" said some of the boys
claimed they sold that bunch of
shingles eleven times and then carried
1t back with them to the raft. He
said lie didn't know now many times
they did sell it, but be knew he had
all the whiskey he wanted.
Such stories made me almost wor-
ship raftsman and when [ was
seventeen years old, though small of
my age, went up TO the big Eau
Claire and hired out to go to St. Louis
at one dollar day and twenty dollars
"back pay" L soon learned that
rafting was something more than
lark.
The first thing was to "raft in" that
is built sixteen foot square scribs, eigh-
teen inches deep held together by three
"grub plank, three witch" plank
and nine grubs. These were coupled
in ''rapids pieces" or strings six cribs
long and two pieces side by side to
each raft. 1 have since run three
pieces abreast and RATED a good deal
deeper and loaded with either shingles
or pickets.
We made our start from Schofields
mill the 18th of April in blizzard
so cold that the snow falling into the
water formed slush ice which stuck
on our oar blades making them too
heavy for one man to handle. "Sailor
Jack" rode down with us as far as
Short Portage, mile above Little
Bull. where he jumped ashore and
left me with another sSucker" scared
very near out of our wits for fear we
would go alone over the falls. There
was no danger however, as the river
runs very slow just above the falls.
We had had breakfast at O'Clock
that morning and at 2 o'clock started
over the falls to get dinner on our
cook piece which was below. But
"misfortunes never come singly,"
we turned one bow crib bottom up on
the "bull tail" and stuck on the
shoemaker ridge" We got off on
one crib, landed a couple of miles be-
low and made our way out through
about q feet of snow which still re
manned under the hemlocks, we got
up to the hotel and had dinner at five
o'clock. After dinner we 'sgiggedn
(walked back to the mill for another
piece. That was the introduction and
1t grew more and more interesting for
more than two months.
! But for all there were so many hard
ships there was fascination about it.
I ran good many trips afterwards.
