" ED01E FOY FOUND DEAD IN KANSAS (Y HOTEL TODAY (Continued from First Page.) “Clowning Through Life.” Arrangements were made to send the body today to New Rochelle, N. Y., for burial. Mr. Foy was a member of the Lambs club in New York, the Na- tional Vaudeville Artist association and the Elks. The eketch in which Mr, Foy made his last appearance depicted the thing that Foy often expressed himself as wishing' to aveld—a fallen star who had only his mem- ories to cheer the fading years of his ' life. He loved to act, his manager said. Waated to Die in Harness Mr. Munnis said Mr. Foy always dreaded the remainder of his life in retirement. “He often told me he wanted to die in the harness, on or near the stage he loved,” Munnis sald. With Mr. Foy and Mr. Miss Helen 8kelly of New was playing in the act. Mr. Munnis said that Mr. Foy frequently had slight heart attacks, but that within the last four weeks his condition had greatly improved and he had suffered no serious ill- ness. Munnis, York, Interviewed in Hartford a few months ago, Eddie Foy said that he would never ‘retire” from the American stage. He was of the opinfon that he would never grow %0 old as to make that necessary. “I'll dle in harness on the stage,” he said, Chicago, Feb. 16 UPM—When fire in the, Iroquois theater here killed hundreds 24 years ago, Eddle Foy, who dled today In Kansas City, was the last person to leave the stage. Pleads Wi udience Foy was appearing in “Mr. Blue- bird” when a gauzy bit of stage drapery caught fire during the bar- gain matinee on December 30, 1903. The flames shot over the heads of continued to try to attract the at- tention of these hurrying for doors until the curtain was lowered but before this could be done the flames had shot into the audience and hun- dreds were killed by suffeeation, burning and trampling. Gives Som to Attendant ‘When the fire started Foy eatrust- ed his son, six years old, to the care of a stage hand, and when he at last left the stage, he rushed from the stage door, uncertain whe’™er the ]lad had been carried to safety. He found the boy safe with the stage hand, New York, Feb. 16 (UP)—Eddie Foy didn't come back to Broadway, after all. At the Lambs club, where he had been a member 33 years, regret at the comedian’s passing was accen- tuated by the thought that Koy waus denied an ambition of years' stand- ing—to return with his children to stardom at a Broadway theater. On the stages of a thousand vau- deville houses he sang: “Oh, it's to the grave together, lit's to the grave together, and don't give a darn how we get there. But they didn't go to the grave toggther—Papa Foy and the seven little Foys. The kids got tired. Lost $18,000 In 1925 Eddie and his children made one last venture for the Rial- to's favor. That was in a play call- |ed “The Casey Girl.” It wasn't a good show and it flopped after a try- out on the road. Eddle lost $18,000, ‘hut he grinned. He always managed ilo grin at everything, his lips mak- ing an ascending arc until his right cheek puckered deeply and the myriad lines around his eyes creased and crinkled. But after that failure family disbanded. Eddie, Jr., Mary, Madeline and Irving made up a quartet for a vaudeville tour. Charles struck out | tor himeelf in vaudeville. Bryan and Dick went to Hollywood. Leave Father There was another disturbing fac- tor. In 1923 Foy married for the fourth time. The children were op- posed to the match and the wife, | fermerly Mrs. Marie Combs of Se- | dalia, Mo., was unable to effect a | reconciliation. So the children, whose mother was the third wife, | Madeline Morando, lived apart from the father, Papa Foy went on tour but as he ! the Foy the audience and into the gallery |daily performed before audiences and in & moment a wild stampede | who were surprised at the vitality of for exits was under way with the , 73.year-old comedian, he planned hoarse shouts of men and the fop a return to Broadway. In his screams of women and children ming the lights that spelled “Eddie mingling with the crackling of the ‘ Foy and the Seven Little Foys" were flames. still twinkling.

Eliza- beth Ingraham at the meeting of the Mother's club of Trinity M. K. |church last evening. “The greatest responsibility of a mother is her child. Much time and thought is |put into the building of a sky- iscrflpcl‘, so that it will withstand time. Much more should be put into building a child, when we are |bullding for eternity. The life of a child is only complete, when it is developed in body, mind and spirit by following the laws of God. These are the same as the laws of health, science and common sense. Follow one and you will get the other.” Dr. Ingraham explained the work of the State Children's Bureau among children of the rural dis- tricts. The need of this work, she isaid, was realized during the World | War when 80 per cent of those ex- amined for service showed physical |defects. One third of these defects were serlous enough for service ex- {emption and one half of these seri- |ous defects could have bcer cor- rected in childhood. Well children bureaus were or- ganized in the states. In Connecti- cut, a group of supposedly well chil- dren is thoroughly examined by the bureau and when defects are noted general health advice is given and the family physician is referred to when necessary. A monthly check- up is made of each child and in this [ way a tendency is corrected before it ¥iacomes a handicap. She illustrated with lantern slides interesting cures that had been made through the efforts of the bureau. Refreshments were scrved. i | 1 | | | | ‘REV." A.

John J. Dudicoft, who de- scribes himself as an arch-priest of the Russian Orthodox church went on trial in the city court today on a charge of obtaining several thou- sand dollars here under false pre- tenses. Dudicoff who was arrested in Chi- cago for the police of this city, is alleged to have told Russian resi- dents here that he knew where the Russian crown jewels were and would split the profits of their sale with any one who would help finance a trip to Russia and furnish enough cash to pay bribes to the custodians of the gems. City Attorney Henry M. French, | in presenting Dudicuft for trial d clared that he was known to the police of Bayonne, N.
