HE IS NOW A WEALTHY MAN Married Eight Years Ago to the Beautiful Woman Who Contributes Greatly to His Success A Brief Sketch, Edward and Libbie Blondell, in private life Mr. and Mrs. Levi Blue- stein, arrived here this afternoon by way of the Big Four and were at once taken to the home of L. Silverman, where a dinner was given in their honor. The Blondells appear this evening at Crump's in Through the Center of the Earth, a play written and piloted by Blondell.

Columbus people feel a keen interest inithe visit of the two well known stage favorites, because of the fact that Mr. Bluestein was a former resident of Columbus. Blondell is now thirty-six years old. Prior to eighteen years ago he lived here, and together with other boys, gave shows in each other's barns. About 1880 he left here for Orange, to take a position in a store conducted by his brother.

The enthusiastic young man grew tired of this uneventful and sedentary life and after living in Orange about six months he engaged as a clorfn and acrobat in Shields' circus. From that time'on his life has been a public one and he has traveled through Mexico, England," France, Germany, and other countries with mavelcus success. FIRST EXPERIENCE. His first experience on the theatrical stage was when he secured a prominent place with a novelty company. He afterwad entered vaudeville, playing with immense' success on the Keith, Procter and Orpheus circuits.

Later, a few years ago, he wrote A Jay on Broadway, in which he starred for some time. Then came the Cheer, ul Idiot, Katzen jammer KidB. and at present Through the Center of the Earth. The Katzenjammer Kids is still on the road, netting him comfortable profits. Next year he will put out another of his effusions, The Fatal Letter, and two years hence he will launch Three Generations.

The two latter, are dramas. All of his visitors have brought him considerable money and he is now considered wealthy. His present address is Harlem, New York. Blondell's beautiful wife, whom he married eight years ago, is deserving of a goodly portion of praise for his success. They have together for a number of years, and are said to be a most congenial couple, something rare in the theatrical profession.

Both have helped each other and have! won a name to be envied. LONGED FOR FREINDS. Blondell said this afternoon that ever since he left here, about twenty-years ago he has longed to see some of his friends. Every time he would run across anyone from Indiana, he would always enquire about Columbus blondell, when he lived here, was not unlike may other youngsters he had the circus fever, and had it bad. Let's see there was Levi Bluestein, Bink Schnur, Jack Rush, Bill Kitz-inger, Bill Burreli, Ed Louie Silverman and Sanford 8 born.

These boys were inseparable. While not into mischief, or in swimming, they amused themselves by giving shows. Bluestein was always a star then, too. Bink Schnur tells that one time on Jackson street between First and Second, they gave a show one time and the grand finale of it was a fierce fight between a bulldog and a billy goat. Bluestein held the dog and Bink held the goat and at the appointed moment they were turned loose, and the result was a great scattering among -the members of the audience.
