ZEPPELIN DAMAGE
 IS REPORTED LIGHT
Most of the Bombs Dropped Tuesday Said to Have Landed in
 Fields.

London, April 26, 4:3O p. nn.--News published in London today indicates that not much damage was done by the four ZepDelins which visited Kent and Essex last Tuesday night. Although one hundred bombs were dropped by the raiders there wcre no casualties.
 From the time when they reached the British coast the airships were kept under the beams of searchlights and were subjected to a very heavy bOmbardment by anti-aircraft guns, forcing them to rise to a, great height and to return across the North Sea.
 Tn a straight run of two miles across one part of Essex a dozen bombs were dropped, mostly in fields, While six bombs fell in the neighbOr- hood of farmhouse without doing any damage except to crops.
 There were many narrow escapes, however, in Kent. Bombs dropped all around the village. The only one that did any damage fell in the gar den of a Vicarage uprooting a large tree which struck the clerical resi- dencc. Crowds everywhere watched

After reach ing the top of the building the Human Fly' will give a difficult eN hibition of balancing and other aero battle stunts.
 John J. Reynolds, as the acrobat was christened. was born at Atlanta, Ga., twenty-eight years ago and for the past twelve years has been f1irt- ing with death daily. When a small boy of six years he showed a dis position for climbing and other stunts and when a youth was a member Or a troupe of acrobrats, where he learned many tricks. A dozen years ago he was in New York and heard that an offer had been made to any one who would climb the flag pole on the Ames building and paint it., regular steeplejacks having super stituous fear since the original paint CT had been killed. From that day on the young southerner has been amazing thousands by his spectacular work.

 Tn addition to climbing the side of Barnes block, Reynolds will give an exhibition of balancing. He will build a fimsy tower of four tables and four chairs on the very edge of the roof and perched on the top will go through the various swaying stunts seen on the vaudeville stage.
 Although he has never been ser- iously hurt, Reynolds has had some bad falls. Tn Philadelphia he slipped when seven stories above the street and fell to the earth. His fall was broken and his worst injury was a dislocated arm. He had no sooner re- covered from this injury when he tell only ten feet and broke his leg. Although Reynolds is often seen on the vaudeville stage he likes to thrill the hundreds in the open air and does much of this work, relying upon contributions from the crowd to defray his expenses and bring him profits.

The Unsuppressable.

Eleven springs ago Hal Chase, the Los Gatos Genius, joined Clarke Griffiths Yankees. Hal was the games Stormy Petrel from the start. Even as a youngster just starting he kept Griff in suspense for over two weeks by delaying his arrival.
 Since that date eleven campaigns ago Chase has known the most vivid career in the annals of play. Always a grand ball player, the famous Mexican Jumping Bean was a sta tionary object compared to California Hal He jumped the Tanks twice and the White Sox once. He painted with streaks and stripes of gray the domes of Griffith, Stallings, Wolver- ton and Chance. On at least three occasions he was ordered to oblivion by the dope of the game and the yer dict of the fans. But today he is not only back in the big league, but is starring with even greater brilliancy and batting beyond his usual force.
 Chase was born on Friday, Febru- ary 13, 33 years ago. This may account for his cratic temperament. Rut those who believe that Chase is about through have not been follow ing the box scores of the new cam paign.

The Red Sox Staff.

Last season Shore, Ruth, Foster and Leonard won 72 games for the Red Sox, against 29 defeats. Shore won 20 and lost T. Foster won 20 and lost 8; Ruth won IS and lost 7, while Leonard won IA and lost 7. These figures show a staff of remarkable balance, but no great star like Alex ander, who won 31 games.
 There wasn't pitcher in the club who won over 20 games, whereas Mathewson at his best used to re- turn from 32 to 35 victories, and. even up to 1914 was winning A and 25 games a season.
 Last season, too,. the competition was much lighter than it will be this year, where there are five strong clubs and two good ones in place of @ three-club affair. The Red Sox un- doubtedly have strong pitching staff. But the greatness Of it is still to be proved by the 1916 test.
