The energetic reporter arrived at a boarding house apartment in Lee's block Saturday night just too late to get the full details of a real elope- ment from “Noo York.” “The young couple, several jumps ahead of an irate papa and two minutes ahead of the reporter had vanished down the back stairs. About a week ago the couple ar- rived, ostensibly from New York. The young girl appeared to be a German and the young man had a Jewish name. After*producing sufficient evi- dence of their recent marriage the couple engaged quarters. | Saturday afternoon an elderly man, much excited and speaking broken English with a German dialect, visi ed the boarding house and asked for information concerning a couple, the description of which fitted the two newlyweds. He departed, promising to return when the couple should be at home. Upon their return, how- ever, the lady of the house informed them of their strange visitors and de- seribed him. ' “Yes, that's ‘popper’ sereamed the girl. Gee, we'd better claimed the man.

Meskill at a hearinsg in chambers this norning. They were taken to the institution later in charge of Misgs Elsie C. Osborn, pro- bation. officer. Accustomed as the court officials are to shocking testimony, the stories told by the girls came as a revelation. As a result of their stories, several Berlin young men are likely to find ~hemselves prominently in the lime- light. and searching inquiry is likely as to their alleged conduct with the girls. The accused allege that they went to Berlin one afternoon last week, met the men and passed the afternoon in a room near one of the bLarber shops. One of their acquaint- ances, th contend, pretended that | me worked near and had much leisure time. One night, according to the wirls, was passed with the men In one of the sheds at the Berlin fair | srounds and another night in a trol- ley waiting room just outside of Mer- den. Prior to their return to New Brit. ain, they admitted, Middletown, New and Bridgeport were visited. They refused to state as to whether undue influence was hrought to bear upon them to have them leave home. As a result of their revelations to the police, it is expected that there will be a much stricter censorship wnd rigid inquiry into alleged con- ditions existing at public dances. The claimed that they acted improp- orly at a dance in Carpenters’ hall on Church street and that it was very casy to do about as one pleased. The ctories told arc being investigated by the police and, today. it is intimated to use every effort in enforcing regu- lations relative to proper conduct, type of dances and conduct of couples in rooms leading off of the dance hall . proper. Arrest of the girls followed a com- Maint of Milda Johnson, sister = of llie. who feared that the latter was in danger of falling into ways of vice.
