ORGAN GRINDER
BELIEVED To Be
FEUD VICTIM

That Joe Lununto, who. with a pc,
monkey and hand organ, collected
pennies and nickels about Atlanta for
several weeks and then mysteriously
disappeared. either is the victim of a
vendetta or has gone to carry out the
of which he was a member are the
theories upon which the detectives
are working in their search for the
missing Italian.
significant circumstance, in the
opinion of the police, is that Lunun
to on the morning that he disap-
peared was visited by a strange fell
low countryman who seemed to be on
some important and secret mission.
He called Lununto to one side and
conversed with him in whispers.
The mysterious visit was observed
only by the cook at No 1877 IL Deca-
tur street, where p. II. Enright con-
ducts a rooming and boarding house.
Enright was absent.
Joe Appeared Nervous.
After the mysterious stranger de-
parted Lununto was perceptibly nerv-
GUS An hour or two later he left the
house. He has not been seen since.
This was a week ago last Monday.
Since then no word has come from the
Italian and no clew has been obtained
to his whereabouts.
He left in E'nrghts place his pet
monkey and his organ. He never had
been separated from the monkey be-
fore for more than an hour at time.
Lununto did not take one of his pos
sessions with him. He even left his
pipe on the table.
All indications were that he had to
leave hastily and without any prepa-
rations. The police believe he eX-
pected to return soon, or he would
have taken his monkey, of which he
was very fond If he was sent on
some mission by a secret society, it
is presumed that he was commanded
not to return until he had accom-
plished 1t.
Monkey Showed Grief.
The monkey, grieving at his mas
ter's absence, at first refused to eat
or to pay any attention to anyone
about Enright's establishment After
much persuasion, he was induced to
make friends with Enright, and now
is accorded all the homage of an hon
ored guest.
Enright's main trouble has been in
saving the Simian from the covetous
hands of about a hundred children
and older folk.
AS soon as The Georgian printed
the story of Lununto's strange dis
appearance and of the "orphaning" OF
the monkey letters began to pour in
upon Enright asking him for the pet
BY Wednesday the rooming house
proprietor had an immense stack OF
letters which he had been unable to
