FROM HOME SINCE MONDAY

No trace has been found of Peter
Goede. who disappeared from his
home at 319 Lincoln avenue, Daven-

advanced that worry over money mat

ity Oats company and he worried con-
tinually over the. fact that he was not
earning enough money to make both
ends meet. He left his home Monday
night at 10 O'Clock, leaving his money.
watch and other valuables at home. He
had taken a quantity of turpentine for
medical purposes before leaving.
He is described as follows: Age
80. height 5 feet inches, dark COM
plexion. dark brown hair. brown eyes.
brown suit, soft black hat, white shirt
with soft collar. no necktie, black
shoes and socks. scar on back of head
and one wrist deformed from frac-
ture.

ECHO OF ITALIAN
ROMANCE IN CASE
Nick Cannello Behind Bars for
His Ardent Love for Rose
Mary Pizzuto.

Nick Cannello, a local Italian, and
an ardent lover, will receive a hearing
before Justice of the Peace Clarence
J. Schroeder tomorrow morning. When
arraigned this morning before the JUS
tice the case against the strenuous
Romeo was continued until Saturday.
Nick is charged with having been
too strenuous in his affections for
Rose Mary Pizzuto, who lives at the
home of her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Salvador Pizzuto. 1908 Fifth avenue.
Nick was enamored of Rose. But
Rose Mary's parents scowled upon the
attentions Nick was paying their
daughter. Still Nick hoped to win
against these great odds. Rose Mary
was once Indifferent to his pleadings
and then some times she would listen
TO them. \ short time ago Nick asked
for her hand in marriage, but the
parents ruled that it could not be so.
The spirit of the Roman race rose
within Nick then and he determined
TO win the girl as they sometimes do
in books But now he has found that
the law will not permit this and he
is in the county Jail awaiting a hear
ing on the charge OF disorderly con-
duct
1t is alleged that Nick threatened
the girl and that he attempted to kid
nap her II is said that he followed
her when she was on the streets and
would not obey her parents COM
mands to keep away from her. Nick
says it is all "bosh," but he will have
a chance to explain that part of it.
