John Quick , u well known resident
of Norfolk , yesterday received u news
paper from Prairie City , lalvini ; an
exhaustive story , together with Illns-
trntlotm , of the wruckliiR l > > ' dynamite
tat the home of his father. .1. A. Quick ,
.In the country near that place last
Saturday night.
The dynamlto bomb was tossed on
the porch of the home at about mid-
ailght by some unknown person , but a
woman doctor , Ida ( Suthrlo , Is In Jail
rharKod with the crime.
Fortunately nobody was Injured In
tfhe explosion.
Miss Merle Quick , a slater of the
Norfolk man , became the brldo about
two months ago of Dr. Alexander Hall
Tlii- young couple were staying at the
Quick home near Prairie City and it
Is believed that Or. Ciutlirlo. who
claims to have been an old sweet
heart of Or. Hall's ( which helentes
Jiowevor ) was seeking to kill Dr. Hal
nnd his bride.
roncurnlng the affair , the Prairie
City News says :
The Explosion.
Shortly before midnight Saturdaj
Ttbo .1. A. Quick family were awakouet
l > y an explosion which was heard In
ho city three miles distant. Dr. Hal
and his bride of two months , who was
.Miss Merle Quick , were asleep In f
room just above the explosion. All
the household at once sought the out
floors to see what had happened ,
They found that a heavy explosion
fliad taken place upon the front porch ,
.Marshal Waddell was telephoned tc
And a short time later he placed Dr
liiithrlp under arrest as she was re
turning from what she explained as ; i
abort walk Into the country.
Had the dynamite or other cxplos
lvc used been placed on the roof ol
the porch In place of the tloor , the
Hves of Dr. and Mrs. Hall would have
undoubtedly been sacrificed , as the
explosion would have been wlthir
three feet of the head of the bed h :
which they were sleeping.
Dr. Guthrle Came to Town.
Dr. Ida CJuthrle , whose home is Ir
Tlarry , 111. , arrived in Prairie City lasl
"Friday evening. Heavily veiled garb
d in black and seldom speaking , UK
woman created attention.
Saturday morning she engaged i
livery team to take a drive about the
country. She did not disclose hoi
purpose In her drive to a soul.
Liveryman Duntley. who drove hei
into the country , failed to elicit ar
answer from her when he inquire !
-the nature of her visit.
'I want to drive east of town , " she
said , according to Mr. Duntley.
As they drove along the country
road , Mr. Duntley asserted that th <
'woman Inquired as to the names o
the farmers wliose residences thej
passed.
After awhile they reached the homi
of J. A. Quick. When asked who Hvec
there. Driver Duntley told the womai
that the Quick family owned the plac <
and resided there-
Mr. Duntley did not know the In !
tials of the family. Miss Guthrle re
quested that to make sure of the nanu
.they look on the mall box.
"J. A. Quick , " said the veiled wo
mian as they looked at the name.
Then the driver was requested t <
drive south. Hut from that time on
3ie says , the woman was apparent ! ;
lost in her thoughts. Not once salt
Mr. Duntley , did she inquire as to thi
names of the people whose land wai
passed.
About noon Dr. Guthrle ordered tha
she be driven to the hotel In town
Such was done. Once again , accord
ing to Dnntloy , he asked her busines
in the town. The woman , he said
replied that she was traveling abou
the country in search of health.
'I am heart sick and troubled , " shi
said , "and am seeking a place when
0 can bo free from worry. "
Tills was on Friday night , t'ntl
Saturday night Dr. CUithrie eithe
walked about the town or stayed li
ier room at the hotel.
During all the time she was seei
she was heavily veiled. A browi
veil and a black one underneath hii
Jier features.
ITUie Quick family live on an eight ;
acre farm , three miles east of towi :
and are old and respected resident
of this community and have a larg
-circle of friends who are sorry to hea
of the damage done to their horn
which will amount to about $500. bu
nre glad that they , together with Di
and Mrs. Hall , were not injured in an
way. Mrs. Hall was born and raise
in this county and her many friendi
among the younger people , are gla
.she escaped unhurt.
Mrs. Quick's Sister Talks.
In conversation with Mrs. Hall ovc
the phone , she states that many mi
takes are in the accounts as given b
the Des Moines papers. She says tin
Dr. Hall talked with Dr. Guthrlo fc
about a few moments at the Jail tli
morning following the arrest and thi
she denied the crime , and when asl
ed why she was in Prairie City si
stated that she desired a rest ar
thought this would be as good a plac
as any in which to spend a few quli
vdays.
A letter received by Dr. Hall la
veek from Ottumwa , signed Smlt
asking him to come to Ottumwa c
professional business on the Saturdr
evening train , is said to have bee
written by Dr. Guthrle , who is su
pected to be the one who commute
the crime. . It is supposed that had tl
doctor gone to Ottumwa , he wou
3invo met with foul play.

Interesting Story Told by Emma Dunr
to an Interviewer.
Ashton Stevens In the Chicago Ex
nminer : 1 got Instantly fond of Era
ma Dunn as Mother in the remarkabli
play of that name by Jules Ecker
Goodman that is now going at tin
Grand opera house. I went to he
dressing room the other night am
she talked to me with a greater frank
ness than I may here repeat. I havi
been "interviewing" players sinci
Blanche Bates was an Infant in am ?
teurs , but the frankness of Miss Dum
almost frightened me.
, h She talked without grease paint
even while she put her tiny mako-u
10 on. She was quick and real and earr
nst. The discretion nnd I hope thor
is some must be mine.
"I am n homely woman , " she said.
"I have gone from manager's oillc
to manager's olllco seeking emploj
ment , and the manngers have looke
nt mo ns much to say , 'There's n
is place for her but the back row. '
"I hnvo time nnd time again bee
10 turned down for my homely face , " sal
10al Miss Dunn as she made it one of th
10 most compelling faces our modor
stage has known.
" 'Poor soul , ' the managers seomc
to to say , ' said she.
10- "I wasn't a beauty : 1 don't hn\
10of to toll you I am not n benuty. Bi
id. I had nn Idea for something besld
external beauty. I said to myself thi
there must a bo a place on the etas
ife for a small , plain woman. David Wa
old was not a beautiful man. Why
hould there not bo a female David
Vnrllold ? "
Miss Dunn pulled down lengths of
rown hair that fell below her waist.
he brought them up skimpily , and
lercllessly parted them at the mid-
le. She drew on her throat n couple
f brown smudges , which made It
trlngy. She smeared a clean black
no under her chin , and thereby add-
tl twenty years. Deftly with black
he deepened her dark eyes. She
as mother.
"It doesn't take much make-up docs
. 'I" she said.
"Must one have been a mother to
lay one ? " was my query.
"Oh yes , " she said , "dccldcly yes.
'his Is my girl. ( It was a pretty ,
lump photograph. ) I lost my boy. "
Her detachment was not Immediate.
She brought the piny Into play and
heaped lovely curses on the first of It's
tago directors.
"You know how those so-called final
tago directors come In to do the
l > rt'akIiiB In' work. 1 almost quit on
iccount of ours. Ho wanted me to sit
in the floor and talk to my son ( Mr.
'erry ) , with my elbows on his knees.
Veil if I've done anything with the
) art It Is because Mr. Brady wouldn't
land for such stage management
lo you believe In woman ? "
"She can vote with me any time
ho nation Is suillclontly civilized ,
tliss Dunn. "
"She ought to be the stage dlrec-
or , " said Miss Dunn , pontillclally.
" 1 nominate Mrs. Fiske for the
stage directorship of the Now thea-
or , " said 1.
'I second the motion , " said she , elab
orately parliamentary.
It was easy enough to agree that
he most of the male stage directors
ire stupid asses. On that point we
ot along handsomely.
But when she asked me how many
children I owned I scarcely could keep
count.
"My mother had eleven , " she said ,
: > y way of beating me.
After the proper reproach she re
lented , as much as to say that only
Hie chosen few could be prodigal an
cestors. "I have the Instinct , the ma-
: erlal when Mr. Perry , as my son ,
comes to me In that big scene , 1 can't
sec him. "
I was about to offer a frivolous com
mentary , when she said with over
whelming suddenness : "I had a
brother like that. He broke my moth
er's heart. "
Get that , gentle reader , and try to
be glad with me that I wasn't a big
ger goat than the part called for.
1 skipped a thousand miles and talk
ed Mansfield. With him she had play
ed Aase in "Peer Gynt. "
"Mansfield , " she said , speaking In
that curious undertone which one com
monly employs on the dead ( I hope
they laugh when they hear us ! ) "was
not a normal , mortal man. But 1
wouldn't give up my brief experience
with him for all the money I hope to
earn In all my life. "
And this was success saying tills.
I print It because I owe something
to Mansfield. In the days when my
forehead was high and success was
a stigma that I fought , in my meager
way , Mansfield was the worst enemy
of the modern stage.
"Why not 'Arms and the Man' to
night , Mr. Mansfield ? " "I'm afraid you
wouldn't understand It. " But they say
your articulation has improved. " And
thus wo were never friends , although
always I wanted to pierce the curious
secret of his genius. He would never
permit me to interview him. Perhaps
that was the most eccentric of all his
eccentricities for I am sure that we
should have played fair.
