HARRY GRADY's DEPARTURE.
Turns Out To Be a Most Serious
 Affair

Turns Out To Be a Most Serious
 Affair.
 Nothing has been heard of the whereabouts of Harry Grady, who made his escape from Policeman Myers yesterday as he was about to step into the police station, and it remains to be seen if the police department has made any effort to recapture him. Ap- parently it has not The Offense for which Grady was arrested was not quite as simple as it was at first said to be.
 Grady came to town a few months ago and boarded on Bank street near the Arlington house. He became ac- quainted with a girl who boarded in his vicinity and about q week ago they went riding. Tn Naugatuck Grady alighted to buy cigars and dallied in the tobacconlst's longer than he should have done. The carriage wraps were not quite sufficient to keep the lady comfortable and when he appeared She complained about his neglect. To her surprise he abused her. Upon reach ing home Grady accused her of having taken S10 from him. The accusation amazed her, and, shocked, she went to her boarding place.
 She had not recovered from the ef- fleets of the surprising charge when Grady entered her room and after some discussion about the missing $10 he drew revolver and pointing it at her threatened to shoot her If she would not confess she had taken the money and return 1t to him. She per sisted in her innocence and when he had left her she entered complaint for his arrest.
 Policeman Myers did not know of these particulars when he arrested Grady yesterday on the warrant that had been issued for him.

BRIDEGROOM DISAPPEARS.
Welded a Chicago Woman on Short
 Acquaintance and Is Missing.


 Chicago, Dec 19.-James Nolan, 55 years old, said to be member of Mo- Ian, Hayes & Co, mining firm at Pa sadenas Cal, is missing. Three weeks ago Nolan came to Chicago and mar ried Helen B. Koch after a short ac- quaintance. After two weeks Nolan left for business trip to Milwaukee. lie has not returned and his bride re- ported his disappearance to the Gen. tral police station. She says her hus- band had $15,00O in mining securities with him when he disappeared, and she fears he has met with violence.
 According to the story told by Mrs Nolan to the police and which is borne out by the records in the marriage li- cense office, Nolan came to Chicago three weeks ago to transact some busi- ness. He met Miss Koch and on De- cember 6 they went together to the marriage license office. A certificate was issued to James Nolan, .49 years old. Of Pasadena, Cal, to marry Miss Helen E. Koch. 2 years old' Five minutes after the license was secured the two were man and wife, the we'd ding ceremony being performed in the county building just outside of the marriage license office.
 The Thursday following the mar riage Nolan received telegram call ing him to Milwaukee. He has since returned, it. has been learned, but all efforts on the part of his wife to find any trace of him have been unsuccess- l ful.

WILL MAKE A TEST.
Law Relating to Itinerant Vendors
 Must Be Weak One.


 Law Relating to Itinerant Vendors Must Be Weak One.
 It now appears to be tho intention of the police department to ascertain what is in tho law relating to timer ant vendors. Only recently has the chief of police made himself acquaint- ed with its provisions and this seems to have been the cause of the Mer- chants association appointing a com- mittee to ascertain why tho itinerant vendors appeared to be living on the fat of the land in this city. The it. inerant vendor law was the result of mutual agitation by the business mems organizations throughout Inc state and it seems to have struck some of them that the law does not reach, or even go near the target it was aimed at. If it is a failure they wish to as certain its weaknesses and their cause as soon ns possible, so that they car be strengthened. If the law is good and can be operated, they want to see 1t forclbly operated.
 1t was because of this seeming leth- argy on the part of the police depart ment that irritated the local business mems organization to vigorous action yesterday morning in the police sta tion. The law requires all itinerant vendors to take out state license which shall cost them $100 and local license, the cost of which shall be $25, before they can do business in the Nutmeg state. When a vendor who takes out these licenses ceases bnsi- ness, his money is returned to him by the state, so that he is given all the protection he can possibly need with out any expense to himself.
 The remark of Attorney Russell in the city court this morning, relating to an alleged ''fakir" doing business in the heart of the city without fear of Interruption by the police, had more truth than poetry in it. Had this man defied the police he could not have conducted business more openly. The criminal officials are aware that it is not an easy matter to procure q con- viction under this law, but it is their duty to see if they can, to at least at tempt an operation of its provisions. There is an impression that the man who was arrested yesterday will not be convicted, but the only way to find this out is to try him. The only way to kill an Imperative law is to enforcs if
