OR Aer Me ary Merk ay Undraped Julius No Nero, For the Roma Also, He Kept Out of Jail Besides, There Was No Fire on Rivington Street as Julius Sounded Paeans of Praise to Each Rising Sun on His Fiddle and Scan- | dalized the Neighborhood. ERHAPS Jultus Steck was try- ing to imitate Nero. For, although the pyrotechnic setting was not present at the time of Julius’s acts, nevertheless the stage properties were identical, with one exception. Nero is alleged to have been clad in the imperial purple, but from the evidence given to Judge Frothingham yesterday it appeared that Julius had substituted for the royal toga the! Plebeian bathrobe, pajamas, or sort. And again Julius reminded one of the story of our youth in which the Pied Piper played a saxophone through the main streets of Ireland and attracted everything, from the loving pigeons io the scions of the House of Killarney, and then took them home with film. But Julius neither started a confla- gration in Rivington Street nor tried to capture any part of the rodent or youthful human element of the cast sida Or, if he did try to do something unusual, the neighbors were on bis trail before the effort came to anything. It takes a lot to start excitement in the Ghetto of New York. One can play a fiddle in the street for hours without causing more than passing comment. into the middle of Second Avenue and play the “Wearing of the Green without rece'ving more than a friend- ly tip from the traffic officer. Or, further still, one could eppear pajamas in Pitt Street without danger of immediate execution, For, verily, the east side is a place of things ex- traordingry. But Julius suceeded in provoking excitement, Colloquially speaking, he brought home the hand-painted fin- ger bow, when it came to sensation. From the complaints of the ladies and the story of the officers it seemed to be something like this: Wor some reason or other Julius had a passion for playing the violin on the root of his dwelling every morn ing at about sun-up. And more than that, Julius forgot to dress before the matin song was played. And, still further, as he did net hide behind the chimney, he soon collected quite an audience, which was always on the watch for his per- formance. And while there was ab- solutely no objection on the part of the east sidera to his musical ‘salu- tation to the coming day, neverthe- less not a few of them suggested forcibly that he clothe himself prop- erly. That was the cause of Julius's ap- pearance before His Honor. Julius admitted of the ab- breviations of attire, was’ found prob- ably guilty and held, So one of the higher courts will shortly be enter- tained by the account of Julius, his fiddle and the missing raiment . the else Steck of the or something some OSIE and Rosie for making the east side, were arrested a divturbance on One could move a pianola| in| n Wore Toga; any of us would have done—picked it up ‘ Unfortunately for all concerned (for there were only 81 cents in it) the loser also spied it at the samo time and made a dash. “What happens when an irresistible force hits an| immovable body?” | Judge Frothingham was the seer to decide the all-important question, for an officer brought the pair of Roses into old Essex Market Rosie Wiener was a nice girl.

And, although the | redoubtable Mr. Zetlin nearly gagged | her with a towel, she kept on talk-| ing. If no one would listen to her she talkéd to sherseff. She was like the famous needle which plays four million records without. getting worn! out, | However, threads of the conversa-| tion were rescued and they are given below. | “I walk down street--find pocket- | book —she comes up—I ask her to identification t—no key at all.” | The reference to the key followed | the claim of the polite Rosie that a| key had been lost. The policeman also testified that the loquacious Rosie had dropped a key when she| went aut, “Let her go,” said the polite Rosie, showing two of her best gold teeth. “I don’t care about the pocketbook | or the Scents. All L want is the key to my house so that [ can get jn.” But His Honor seemed to think that he should hove something to say in the melee. : His speech follows: “You may go"—thi Rade y go"—this to the polite “Five dollars fine.” ree guesses which Rosie it was, (Copyright, 1917, With the help of @ man wh ‘The Inspector arrives ig 2 Cade clues The and Mrs ‘© young girl who has been ¥ orders, alter the accident occurred CHAPTER LL, (Continued) ‘M trying to get at the truth, and UU do it if L have to subpoena ev- every one in this house!” retorted “Did Miss Collins men- | | the Inspector, jtlon to you any woman friend or ac quaintance who was in trouble fear of an attack upon herself? “No, never." or in “Had she any enemy,against whom she might have been! compelled te defend hersel: “Certainly not! tions are horrible!" “Every one loves lvy!
