Fails to Put in An Appearance at >. Trial Of Two Men
THEY ARE RELEASED
Vigorous Campaign Should be 1nsti- tuted on DOgs-Local Board to Elect-Degree Team at Grange Austin is Backed Up.

AS tho principal witness, Jennie May Curtis, in the cases of Martin Mcdonald and Ross Crowley, who have been sojourning in the Hartford county jail for the past two months awaiting trial in the superior court charged with living off the earnings of an immoral woman, failed to ap- pear against the men both were re- leased from custody yesterday. Mo- Donald and Crowley were tried be- fore Judge George G. Griswold after being arrested by the state police at the Berlin fair grounds.
 The case at the time attracted state wide attention. Jennie May. who pro- fessed to be a Vampire Dancer" was found guilty in the local court and was fined s1oo and costs. After spending a few days In tho Seyms street emporium, Jennie May had her fine paid and was released. She left Hartford immediately and since that time has not been seen or heard from.
 The case may have serious conse- quences for Carmine Perretti, who has a tailor shop on Main street, Kensington. George George. who was the concessionist at the fair, was arrested under the same complaint with Crowley and Mcdonald. Instead of appearing in court to answer to the charges. George forfeited his bond of $500 which was furnished by Perretti.
 ' At the time of Georges arrest here, 1t is said, the local tailor knew the man but slightly. Promising to re- turn the money to him in a short time, Perretti, 1t is said, was pre- vailed upon to assist the man. George 1t is reported, soon after his trial in Berlin left for parts unknown. What action Is to be taken by States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn in the matter Is not known. Perretti in going bonds for George. gave his residence in Kensington as a security for tho mans appearance. Perretti now is worried that he will lose his homo as a result of acting . good samaritan.
