HOTEL EASY ON NERVES.
Three Nights Each Week Spent by
Patient at AnAgrams.

NEW YORK (N.AN.A).-Three eve
nings in week at anagrams in the La
fayette Hotel have been prescribed by
a physician for patient whose work
and disposition have made him ner-
vous. Simple but desirable. The La
fayette, northeast of Washington
Square. is frequented by people with q
liking for that mode of life Understood
by the word continental" They take
their ease and they take their time,
and any management that tries to
hurry them is sure to lose their
patronage.
Here in halls that have an atmos-
phere of deliberateness and are gra-
ciously proportioned and charming with
French prints they pass the evenings
over slow games of chess, checkers,
don1inoes and bridge. They talk q
little and perhaps have sandwich or a
cup of tea, coffee or something quite
as innocent. A few by themselves lust
read. The place is easy on the nerves.

Oldest Railway Found.

England's argument as to the oldest
railway in the country has been settled
In favor of the Hetton- Sunderland line,
which was constructed in 1922 by
George Stephenson. This makes it the
first line in the world. About eight
miles long, it was originally worked by
a combination of self-acting inclines and
locomotives, five of Stephenson's Puff
ing Billy engines being on duty at the
opening ceremonies.

cigarettes were politely asked to throw
them away. If they refused they were
attacked. Two such cases have been
reported to police, but it was understood
that a number of other attacks have
taken place. Despite the cheapness of
Filipino cigarettes, American brands
have been growing increasingly popular
for a number Of years.

ARREST PREVENTS SAILING.
Ted Pezzoni Alleged Trigger Man In
Buckley Murder Probe.

in Detroit as suspect In the murder
of Jerry Buckley, radio, announcer. Ted
Pezzoni, alleged gangland trigger
man." was arrested by police here today
just few hours before he planned to
sail for his native Italy.
PeZzoni was captured as he walked
into Bronx bank, where, police allege,
he was to withdraw $4,000 sent him
from Detroit to enable him to take a
midnight liner for his homeland.
John Hoffman, detective lieutenant
of Detroit, brought about PeZzoni's cap
ture. Through underworld informants
in Detroit, he said, he learned that PEI
zoni had moved to New York and that
his money had been withdrawn there
and sent to a bank at Fordham road
and Creston avenue, the Bronx
Hoffman left Detroit yesterday at
midnight and flew here by airplane.
When he reached the city early today
he hurried to police headquarters to
ask for aid and with two detectives
went directly to the Bronx.
The bank had not opened when the
detectives arrived. Hoffman knew Pez-
zoni by sight and the three men lin
gered on the corner near the bank en-
trance, scanning the faces that passed.
Pezzoni, walking carelessly down the
street half an hour later, unwittingly
stepped into the trap. He offered no
resistance and detectives said he was
unarmed. He was taken to the High
bridge station and held as a fugitive
from justice from Detroit. Lieut.. Hoff-
man said Pezzoni owned a night club
