FOR USING TRACKS Jndge Promis (o Boubi Pas- ity lor Next Offemse Imposing a fine of §1 = without cost in each of 14 cases of trespass- ing on raliroad property, in police court today, Judge W. C. Hunger- ford suggested that.those arrested yesterday by the - rallroad police spread a warning among their fac- tory associates that all who come be- fore the court on this charge here- atter will be fined at least twice the amount. charged &t this time. The rallroad company; he said, has ap- parently done everything possible to discouragg trespassers from risking their lives by walking the tracks, éven to the extent of stationing uni- formed officers for several days to warn those who have been accus- tomed to using the tracks for high- way purposes. The rallroad officials have sought in this way to protect the trespassers from danger, for vertainly none of the 14 who were rrested would injure a locomotive should they collide with it, he ob- erved. When the cases were called, An- selo Tata of 181 Washington street was the only absentee, despite the fact that none had been required' to post bonds. Some pleaded guilty and others said they did not under- stand the charge. Some had nothing to say, while others pleaded that they had not been warned against trespassing and were not aware of | the probability of being arrested. All who were asked if they had walked the tracks prior to yester- Jay replied négatively, a fact that caused Assistant Prosecuting Attor- ney W. M. Greenstein to comment. One of the group sald his wife is wway this week and he planned to have his meals in a restaurant on the railroad arcade, which is easily reached by way ' of the railroad property from Elm street west. Frank and. Angelo. Napolitano of 418 Church street, brothers, they started to trespass but turnéd back when they saw the railroad | policemen rounding up the others. Officer Smith, however, saw them and placed them under arrest. Of- ficer Smith testified that he.was de- tailed to Keep those arrested in cus- tody in the baggage rcom at the passenger station and while there he saw the Napolitano brothers start down' the tracks and then retrace thelr steps as they called to others to do likewise. He stepped out and arrested them. Captain Ralph H. Kingsley of the rallroad police testified that every effort had been made - to prevent trespassing and for a short time after the uniformed . officers had been stationed to warn track walk- ers, the condition appeared to have been cleared up nicely. A few days ago, however, trespassing was re- sumed and it was decided to take the | final step and make the arrests. After court, Tata appeared and was assessed the fine of $1, which he paid. HARLEM REJOICES AT DANGER'S LUCK Plans Big Reception to Its Fa- . Inous Josephine New York, June 22 (UP)=Harleni may be a little skeptical about Jos- ephine Baker and her count, but just the same it is anxious tQ welcome her back home. * . Through the music halls and the cabarets of New York’s great negro section last night, the stories of Jos- ephine were sung and shouted while orchestras played louder and dances danced harder, all because the little dark girl who once danced in the second row .of ‘a third rate chorus now calls herself countess. Some .of Josephine’s friénds. ‘are inclined to point out that Josephine always was a great girl to get her ‘name in the papers. Dispatches from| Paris have told of her announcement of her marriage to Count Pepito Al- batino Due Conti Veneti but no one in Harlem seems to have heard of Pepito nor had Josephine told her trdends about him. £ But that doésn’t make any differ- ence to Harlem. i “She'll be in Harlem in five or six weeks,” Sam’ Tolson, veteran negro theatrical producer who knows Josephine well, told the United Press. * “And when she - comes across from Liberty the lower shore of Manhattan is going to be solid black.” He argued that count or no count, it ‘made no difference. Josephine, he said, now is the highest salaried negro woman in the world and that distinction alone would entitle her to & reception. Newspaper pictures of the new countess and clippings of the ac- count of her marriage adorned the walls of Harlem's clubs. Tongues of the social and theatrical elite wagged with her name; At the Troopers’ club, a haunt of said | Dbeamed over her matrimonial feat. |} sm LY MR L R PR .

Hasel is the dancer’s best friend and her former roommate in e o While Harlem's night life glowed brighter with the news, its every- day surface was hardly scratched, despite the declarations of general interest made by Josephine's friends. “All I'se got, to say,” a ‘lounger in the cool shadows of & side street sald, “is dat Italian baby is sho got on easy street from now on. Papa kin loaf in the parlor while mama blackbottoms home with the bacon.” ! None of the New York negro newspapers, all weeklies, have ap- peared since announcement of Jos- ephine’s Italian conquest. CIRCUS TRAININ S0, WINDHAM GRASH None Injured but Caboose Is De- ; stroyed South Windham, Conn., Juné 22 |P—The caboose of the freight | train known as Pa-1 was demolished and burned and a tank car just ahead derailed but was gotten out of | the way of fire danger, early this morning when the first section of a clrcus train ran into the freight about quarter of a mile from the station here. Nobody was injured. The . circus train, one of several taking thé Ringling Brothers-Bar- num and Bailey circus from Provi- dence to Hartford, came up to the | Pa-1, just as the latter had left a car here and started to move on. Engineer Bean succeeded in slow- ing his train considerably before the | crash. - The forward trucks of his | engine ‘were derailed and the engine | damaged so that it was sometime ! | betore it could move. There were | 25 cars in his train. | ~ A wrecking train,’ brought from East Hartford, got the track cleared | up about eight o'clock and both J trains went on. Later sections of the {lhe eircus train, notified of the acci- ! dent, were sent over the shore line ! division by way of New London and , | Saybrook, to Hartford. Engineer iLe\'Ine and Conductor Sauter were ' in charge of the freight train. Scavillo-Ceerelli - | “Wedding at St. Mary’s !
