REYNOLDS IN NEW ENGLAND

RENSSELAER VAUDEVILLE ART-p-diSTS ARE TOURING NEW 1 ENGLAND STATES. - Mr.~and Mrs. Earle Reynolds and daughter, Helen, of this city, world’s leading skaters, are now on a vaudeville circuit in New England. A letter from Earle states that they expect to start in on a new booking on ! March 14, which will carry them well ’ into the summer, after which he and i his family will return to Rensselaer i for a visit. The following article is I taken from the Bridgeport, Connecticut, News: “How to live an ideal family life on the vaudeville stage, is beautifulily exemplified by the Reynolds family, well known to theatre goers everywhere under the billing title of Reynolds, Donegan and Company. Mr. Reynolds is the Reynolds, Mrs. ' Reynolds is the Donegan—-her maiden name—and little Miss Reynolds is the Company. The family are appearing at Pali’s in a spectacular skating act, gorgeously costumed. They are a pleasant little family, engrossed in themselves and their interests, touring the country together, making their stay in hotels and theatres measure up to a real domestic standard of life. “But we really have a home,” said Mrs. Reynolds. “It’s a way off in Indiana, and it’s all our own. We spend six or eight weeks there every -y—■■-■ ■ ' “You should see ourho use,’’broke in Mr. Reynolds, enthusiastically, “It’s a peach of a place, right in the middle of five acres of the best wheat land you ever saw. We have seventeen rooms there, with a big garage in the rear, made into & gymnasium where we exercise to keep in trim and practice our new numbers for next season.” “Oh, yes, we feel quite proud of

SCHOOLBOY HAS LEG BROKEN

EMMETT EGER HAS LEG BROKEN IN SCUFFLING MATCH WITH COMPANION. Emmett Eger, six years of age and a son of Mr. and Mrs. Cleve Eger, sustained a broken leg in a scuffling match with his schoolboy companion, Dudley Sands, Monday evening just after school. The injury was a severe one and the little fellow was taken to the hospital where an X-ray examination of the injured member was made. It was found that the tibia bone of the left leg had beenbroken in two places. After an anaesthetic had been administered the bone was set and Emmett was removed to his home on Milroy avenue. The accident was the result of a trivial argument between the boys as to the respective merits of their dogs, or something like that—Emmett asserting that his dog could swim further under water than could. Dudley didn’t believe it so they resorted to a scuffling match to champion the cause of their respective canines whose reputations were 'being smirched. In the scuffle that ensued Emmett was thrown in such a manner that his leg was caught be- ■ neath him and the above noted accident resulted. Both youngsters are sorry for what happened because —oh, just because Emmett likes Dudley and because Dudley likes Emmett, and because Dudley is sorry Emmett had his leg broken and Emmett because he can’t get out and do like the rest of the boys now. Now, Dudley concedes that maybe after all Emmett has the. better dog. ■Master Eger rested well last night and is feeling tip-top today and asserts that it won’t be long before he is out again and in as good a shape as ever.

Indiana,” broke in Miss Helen. “It’s the home of Booth Tarkington, you know, and George Ade and George Barr McCutcheon —his home is only twelve miles away from us. My grandmother and twin sister are out there keeping house for us and we’ll see them when we go home this summer. My sister—isn’t she beautiful?—” shyly producing a picture. She’s just getting ready to graduate from high school. She’ll probably be with us next year. I hope so because we all like to be together.” AAnd the little lady who spoke so wistfully of her sister and her home is nothing less than the recent premier dancer at the Hippodrome, the girl who took the place of Charlotte, the great ice skater, when she went to Chicago to fill an engagement there. She’s a little dark beauty, too, thicklashed and lustrous. See her in the picture. The family are just real folks, not like stage people at all—father, mother and daughter, pleasant ,to meet, pleasant to talk with and exceedingly pleasant to watch.”

SAYS "CHAIR-WARMING” PATRIOT KILLED QUENTIN

New York, Feb. 16.—Lieut. Quentih Roosevelt was goaded into making the flight which ended in his death 'by taunts of a certain “chairwarming” officer, according to a story published today in the Evening Telegram. An unnamed aviation lieutenant just returned from France, is quoted as the authority for the story. Young Roosevelt, the narrator relates, was handicapped by being near-sighted, and for that reason had been detailed to ground work. Nevertheless, when he heard that one of the “chair warmers” had hinted that he lacked the courage to mak an air flight he determined to lead a squadron over the German lines, and persuaded the commander to let him do so. Shortly after the start, says the lieutenant, Roosevelt became separated from his squadron, and, thinking he was rejoining it, unwittingly ran into a squadron of enemy planes and was shot down.
