NEW YORK, July Men whose chief attribute is culture seldom join the police department of any municipality, yet New York had one such man for more than a quarter of A century, He was George H. Quackenbos and he could write many titles behind his name for he had made the grade In the world of education and decided he wanted to see the other side of life- -the side so often vividly revealed to the policeman in the performance of his duty. Quackenbos retired a few years ago with the title of lieutenant. He died recently, and that brings up this story of a man who was most unusual, whether a member of police force or just an important citizen. of commanding appearance, due to a huge mustache he wore, along with a sombrero of the variety used by cowpunchers on the plains, he was a noticeable figure wherever he went, and his linguistic abilities often brought him into public notice.

Few men who have not lived in China can speak Chinese, yet this police officer mastered the tongue and often was called upon to interpret the language. He took up the sign language used by deaf mutes and became so proficient that he was an Instructor in an Institution. His knowledge of the foreign tongues so extensive that for years he was the police department representative at the bureau of immigration. Now it may be sald that this policeman had been graduated as a physician and was the master of a dozen languages and many dialects. He had the title of professor before he donned the blue of the department because he had served in a Latin course St.

Francis Xavier college. In his career he often appeared as a plain cop before men who sat as judges on the bench, but it never disturbed the educated one. He had picked out his job and he liked it. One. of the finest examples of complete, rest can be found on Murray street just off Broadway.

Every day a bootblack places the portable cleaning stand just far enough from a wall to allow a customer conveniently to lean back while placing his foot on the stand. After the shine is finished and the customer has gone, this particular bootblack does not follow the usual custom of picking up his portable stand and soliciting trade as he slowly moves along. Instead he remains on his knees gazing at the blank wall. He doesn't even look around to see 10 there is a likely prospect in the offing; he just gazes and waits. When A customer takes up his position the shine is given and the complete immobility resumed.

Considerable activity last night in the far-from-Broadway drama centers. Take Denver, for instance. Ethel Barrymore, heading for the coast in "The School for Scandal," played Denver's Broadway theater and the playgoers of the Rockies probably got properly excited about it.

HAROXIE East Bay Premier THEATRE NOW PLAYING BILLIE BURKE IN 'VINEGAR TREE' 15 RARE FUN Play Deals With Sex in Hilarious, Non Clinical Terms By WOOD SOANES B' DILLIE turned vacious, to BURKE, lovely, the and charming, witty, district re- vi- at bay the Curran theater last evening and was welcomed with open arms by the first nighters who were united in the opinion that nothing has matured about her but her art, and that "The Vinegar Tree" was delicious high comedy. This is a form of entertainment that has.

been virtually lost to us since the days a when John Drew and Henry Miller used to pass their gay sallies SO blandly over the footlights. Nowadays we must await the vent of the muse at tide homes of Noel Coward, Frederick Lonsdale and the other British writers with an occasionally unexpected arrival at an American atelier. Paul Osborne wrote "The to this or any of stage Vinegar Tree" is virtually, unknown fare. True he wrote a sexy bit called "Hot Bed" which had a brief Brock Pemberton display in the east but got no. further, and then he turned his hand to "The Vinegar Tree" for the uses of Mary Boland in New York, and forthwith achieved a hit.

Just what hidden significance the title may have is beyond this reviewer, but that it provided an evening of rare fun as handled by Miss Burke and her cohorts is easier to decide. It 1g. a light and airy bit of fluff, never sententious and never problematical. It deals with a problem of sex but it discusses it In hilariously non-clinical terms. Miss Burke is Laura Merrick, a sort of ingenue Mrs.

Malaprop and matronly Dulcy rolled into one. Married to a crusty old gentleman and the mother of a collegiate daughter, she is a frivolous, addlepated creature who can't remember, her own sister when she sees her after fifteen years, and can scarcely remember her own name if asked to respond quickly, She had buried herself In the country, so she tells someone, because her husband felt that it would be good for his liver and his heart. She never would have moved had It been only for one. To another she explains that something is as far apart as alpha and beta. And when quarreling with her sister over questions of the heart she exclaims: "Why you who have been married too much, can know nothing of what it means to be married too little!" Separated from the text, these items may appear merely insane observations but delivered with the Burke touch in the midst of the Osborne, situations, they become epic, and the vaulted dome of the Curran echoed the laughter of those who had come to renew acquaintance with the winsome redhead of yesterday, and remained to huzzah the titian of "The Vinegar Tree" is the story of this witless mother whose daughter is returning home from college not engaged to the youth of her choice because he fears that she lacks the experience for wifehood.

He has been reading books and so has she, but mother is little or no help. Then, too, the house is full of people- grumpy old father, a handsome suitor of yesterday, and the errant sister. Between the sextet everything comes out according to Hoyle and Father Time, but not before countless obstacles have been Vinegar Tree" is a play that might easily be both dull or naughty without the company and the star, but with this combination is palatable and jovial affair, an excellent example of good casting and fine direction. Warren William, of the New York troupe is again the wicked man about town, recalling both Lou Tellegen and Hamilton in his work but remaining original in his methods; Julie Dillon and William Janney are true as the youngsters; William Morris a delight as the acrid but amusing father, and Dorothy Blackburn, an old. Oakland favorite, excellent as "the bigamist." "The Vinegar Tree" 1s one of those productions that make the stage indispensable.

The Film Daily followed with an editorial suggesting the possibilities of Miss Caubaye. The ink was scarcely dry on this boosting the Caubaye stock when the news leaked out of the Gilbert Miller offices that she has been offered the role of a French adventuress in the first Miller production. The play is an English production: due for a Broadway showing in the fall. And now another story comes from New York to the effect that Jack Livingston, publisher 'of a casting directory, has decided to turn producer and will make his debut in the fall with a comedy called "Good Morning Caroline," the work of Miss Caubaye and Wilbur.

This bit news' emanated from the Hopkins' offices where the chubby producer presides over a diminutive theater with only a few hundred seats and presents plays that suit and the semiVictorian clientele he attracts. usually these Hopkins productions also develop into hits. His plan this season is to John Galsworthy's "The Roof" for a starter. It was presented in London a couple of years ago and while it was chalked up as a failure in the British capital, it is said to be a drama of strong possibilities if outfitted with a good cast and produced with care.

After "The Roof," Hopkins intends to do the new Mitne play.
