Jump Two Stories
 To Escape Fire

New Haven, Sept. 2o.-UnabIe to get through the door of their room owing 10 a broken knob, Jacob Formal and his wife were forced to jump two sto- ries to escape from their burning house, at 911 State street, yesterday Formal was vanishing the floor of their bedroom and was using crude oil as a first application. In lighting a cigarette the lighted head of the match flew off and fell into the can of oil.
 Immediately the room was in flames Formal and his wife set about check ing the fire and both were terribly burned about the hands and face. Mrs. Formal tainted and then her husband tried to drag her through the door, but owing to the defective knob it failed to open. Pulling his wife through the flames, Formal reached the window, where Mrs. Formal re- covered sufficiently to be able to jump. Both were further injured in 1eaping to the ground and were taken to the New Haven Hospital.

THREE STEAMERS BRING
 NEWARK EAGLES ON VISIT

Seldom has any other city sent such a delegation of visitors to Bridgeport as came yesterday when it took three steamers to bring 5000 members of Newark Aerie, Eagles, and their friends The Majestic was the first to arrive. She was followed by the Newark, and she by the Orient. The visitors were received by a committee of local Eagles and were escorted to the rooms of the aerie, Madison ave- nue, where refreshments were served and a band discoursed music. The main hall was devoted to dancing.
 The visitors n.1ny of them went out to see the war ships in the harbor. Others visited the parks A feature of the day was the presentation of a mounted eagle to the local aerie. The bird is a handsome specimen of his kind and of the taxidermist's art. The demand for post cards showing views of the city and it's parks was enor- mous At Hartigan's drug store 1,500 stamps were sold in a few minutes and all the stamps were used on cards A large number of the Newark Aerie have promised to come to the carnival of the Bridgeport Aerie, which is soon to be given.

There are one hundred persons in the cast and the chorus is not only pretty, but can really sing.
 "The Round Up,' with .Rapley Homes in the role of "Slim' Hoover, had remarkable engagement in Bos- ton, playing to as big receipts as it did on it's two previous visits. Klaw & Erlanger, have made a big pro- duction of the drama of the Arizona desert for it's first long road tour and engaged splendid acting cast.
