Masseria, otherwise “Joe the Boss,” de- |scribed by newspapers as an associate |of Al Capone and by the police as “the | biggest racketeer of them all,” is dead from foes’ bullets, and the police today feared there would be a gang war. Five bullets were fired into the back of his head and shoulders while he sat | thumbing a deck of cards in an obscure |little Italian restaurant in Coney Is- land last evening. { Joe lived in Harlem, and he was a long way from home when he arrived at the Nuova Villa Tammaro in his steel-armored car, with its inch-thick plate-glass windows. It was uncertain whether he arrived alon: or whether there were any other customers in the place. The proprietor was out for a walk, and the cook was in the kitchen, and neither knew a thing about it. Auto Pulls Away. An hour after he arrived there was & volley of shots in the restaurant, and an automobile pulled away from the curb. Police found Jce in a pool of blood, a card table overturned and the cards strown over the fioor. His car was still outside where he had parked it and not a great distance away was a se~ond au- tomobile, in which were found several sawed-off shotguns. The feuds which “Joe the Boss"” waged ih New York have been so many, police said, that any one of a dozen enemies might have killed him. They sald he was “bigger than Al Capone,” that he had a hand in “every racket known.” Moreover, Al Capone is sup- posed to have warned him in recent weeks that some of his practices were dangerous for his health. Immigrant of 1903. Joe came to the United States in 1903, then a boy of 16. He swaggered through the Mulberry Bend d strict for five years before his name got on a police blotter for a minor offense. From 1907 to 1920 he was arresied a number of times for assault, extortion and burglary, and once he was put away for three years in Sing Sing. Along about 1920, when he had learnsd the rcpes thorough'y. he blos- somed out as a “big shot.” S'nce then he has been put on the spot four or five times, but until yesterday his luck held out and bystanders usually came off the worse. Police hauled him cn the carpet a dozen times. They questioned him about, the murders of Prznkie Yale and Frank Marlow. The Boss knew nothing about them. COLLEGE HEAD ADOPTS PAINTING AS HOBBY Dr. F. B. Robinson Takes Up New One Every Year—Ancient He- brew to Be His Next. NEW YORK (N.ANA)—On the sixteenth floor in an office looking down on the East River and its four bridges a college president has been telling a professional painter how to mix colors. ‘The president is Dr. Frederick B. Rob- inson, identified for 25 years with the College of the City of New York, and also a past president of the Associa- tion of Urban Universities and a for- mer chairman of the American Coun- cil of Education By his precise specifications the of- fice is “a symphony of silver, blue and green.” Dr. Robinson, whose hobby this year is portrait painting, hovers over the paint buckets, seeing to it that the chades are as he declares they should be. It is proper to call por- trait painting this year’s hobby, for every year the college president takes up a new one for the good of his soul He has gone in for playing the cello, for etching and sculpture and next vear he proposes to learn ancient Hebrew.

E iDi ilnnumerable Curtain Calls Give Evidence of Success of Performance. A vast matinee audience at the Fox Theater yesterday capitulated to Lily | Pons, petite French coloratura soprano, who has been acclaimed the greatest operatic “find” of the year. It is said, in fact, that since her debut with the Metropolitan company a few months ago she has not appeared in a single opera without bringing down the house. That she did this in the Metropolitan's presentation of Ambroise Thomas’ “Mignon” yesterday was more than ap- | arent. At the climax of the difficult “Polo- | naise,” one of the most treacherous of | coloratura singing feats, the audience broke into frenzied applaus: and kept the young French singer bowing and | courtseying far beyond the usual time | limit of such things, Bori Wins Acclaim. While Mme. Pons won the most fer- vent bit of applause during the after- noon, Mme. Bori, one of the greatest of | the Metropolitan divas and easily the most popular singing heroine of the | company when it comes to Washington, | sang the role of Mignon and acted it | | with unsurpassed feeling and grace. | This “grand lady of the opera,” whose every operatic creation seems better | than the lact, and who has never yet disappointed an audience in the many roles she has attempted, won the most sustained applause of any one yesterday | except for the tumult of bravos that | greeted Mme. Pons in her one great | number. As if this were not enough for one momentous occasion, Beniamino Gigli made his only operatic appearance with these two celebrated ladies, thus form- ing what must inevitably be called the | most sensational singing triumvirate that Washingtcn has been privileged to hear this season. Performance Outstanding. Signor Gigli sang aria after aria in| the manner which has endearsd him to so many hundreds of thousands of music lovers, using that impeccable enunciation which allows one really to understand what he is singing about, even in the staccato whispered lincs | letting his voice penetrate into the far reaches of the enormous theater. Except p:rhaps for the conventional scenery, which seemed needlessly musty, | except in the last act, when a glimpse of a dark blue background gave a true semse of romantic depth, this perform- ance of “Mignon” must be ranked as one of the mcst satisfying the Metro- politan_has ever given here. At the end, after innumerable curtain calls, the audience still seemed unwilling to leave, and many ladies probably echned the feelings of one who stated frankly that she was “overcome.” Idyl Proves Alluring. | Certainly the Watteauesque charm of this opera, which flows along so gently and 50 brightly on the familiar Thomas music, with the idylic “Connais tu le | Pays™ sung with great charm by Mme. | Bori, mever has been more alluring. | Thosé Who complain that this is one of ths overlight phantasies, produced | ccnsistently by this company, if there | were any such present yesterday, must have felt a doubt come over them as to_the value of their opinion. | What is especially satisffing in this is that it allows two sopranos to soar | to Timitless heights without so much as | treading on each cther’s toes. Particu- larly gratifying was it yesterday to se: the lack of “temperament” displayed, while first one lady received thunder- | ous applause and then the other. There | was no_backstaging or spotlight hug- | ging. Each lady graciously did her chare and then stepped quietly into | the background. Thus Bori was a de- | | lightful Mignon and Pons a differently | delightful Philine—and neither of them | begrudged one item of enthusiasm that | the audience chose to bestow on the other. True and great artists—both of them. | Uncer the direction of Louis Hassel- | mens, the orckestral music was ideally attuned to the mood of the work and | to the singers, who wers neither rushed | | ror retarded nor received anything but | |the greatest support. And among the | | singers of lesser roles, there was Leon | Rothier, Angelo | a sturdy Lothario; Swarthout, well costumed as the lad Frederic, but a trifle thin of voice. The gypsy dance by Rita de Leporte and |the chorus work_were especiall? com- | mendable. E. de S. MELCHER. |BRILLII\NT AUDIENCE ! INCLUDES PROMINENT | ! LEADERS IN SOCIETY | Patrick J.

ROWBOTTOM GETS YEAR FOR BRIBERY Former Indiana Representa- tive Also Must Pay $2,000, U. S. Jury Decides. By the Aseociated Press. EVANSVILLE, Ind., April 16.—Con- | victed of accepting bribes for procuring Post Office appointments, Harry E. Rowbottom, former Indiana first dis- trict, Congress member, must serve a | year'and a day in Leavenworth Federal | Penitentiary and pay a fine of $2,000. | A Federal Court jury, which deliber- ated two hours and five minutes last night, found that Rowbottom accepted $750 from Walter G. Ayer for appoint- ment of a son, Gresham Ayer, as rural mair cerrier at Rockport, Ind., and that he received $800 for procuring the Dale, Ind., postmastership for S. Grant Johnson. Rowbottom’s attorneys indicated no appeal will be taken. At liberty ainder $10,000 bond, the former Congress member was ordered to report at In- dianapolis April 20 to start his journey to the penitentiary. Convicted on Four Counts. ‘The conviction,. concluding a two- | day trial, was on four counts of the indictment returned against him early this year. Similar sentences on each count will run concurrently. Rowbot- tom was acquitted on four additional counts of bribery and a charge of conspiracy was dismissed on motion of the Government. Rowbottom's attorneys tried unsuc- cessfully to obtain probation for the defendant on grounds he is a weakling physically, that others involved in the deals were not indicted and that he is not of the mental caliber usually as- sociated with the high office he held Refusing the request, Special Judge Charles E. Woodward of Chicago said, ‘the court cannot condone the flagrant and cynical barter and sale of public offices as discloscd by the evidence in this case. I do not deem it necessary to impese the extreme penalty but the sentence must be of such a nature as to deter other Congressmen from such practices.” Admits Accepting Money. Testifying in his own defense, Row- bottem yesterday admitted having ac- cepted $750 from Walter G. Ayer, and having received the $800 from Otto A.| Weilbrenner, former postmaster at Moéunt Vernon, but contended the money had been given him to meet a deficit created by his losing campaign for Te- election last Fell, and not in exchange for postal appointments.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, April 16—The United States Circuit Court of Appeals had under consideration Jast night the ap- peal of Ralph Capone from a fraudulent income tax payment conviction. Capone's counsel based its plea on a compromise settlement with the revenue office, in view of which, it was argued, there could be no fraud. A sentence of three years in Federal prison, $10,000 in fines and two one-~ year jail terms was imposed on Capore, elder ‘brother of “Scarface Al" a year ago. Assistant District Attorney Jacob Grossman countered the appellant pleas with the argument that intent to de- fraud was the only question and that this was shown by falsification in re- om‘.
